Absolutely the best Cuban sandwich I have had in Knoxville. I was introduced to Cubans by my amazing foster mother Mary when I was a teen. she would go somewhere near Farragut and order them. Always with a side of au jus. These are sooo much better than the ones I got then, the flavor memory is still there though. ❤️

A little crowded but worth it. The Cuban sandwich is absolutely delicious. And the pastries are sinfully good.

Love this place. The food is excellent and everyone who works there is friendly and helpful. They make everything fresh so there can be a bit of a long wait, but it's worth it.

This is an incredible place to eat! Cuban sandwich, rellano, plantains, tostones all fresh and delicious. This is a family owned and operated eatery, this place is definitely worth the visit.

I got a spinach and feta pastelito which was sweet, spicy, and savory all at once. Delicious. Also got a Cuban sandwich which was excellent, and a cortadito coffee. YUM. Fun and polite staff and it's obviously a family-run business. The seating area is small but the atmosphere is great. I sat at my table long after I'd finished and wrote this review while watching the people come and go. I'll be back next Sunday.

We came here looking for authentic Cuban and we got it. Probably would have given five stars, however they prioritize DoorDash orders over in person orders and we had to wait 20 minutes for a Sandwhich, that wouldn’t fly in Miami.We also got a chop chop bowl and they substituted tostones instead of plantains without advising us. The tostones were greasy and overcooked.Overall good food but won’t go out of our way again to eat here.

I ordered the media noche and guava and cream cheese pastry. While the sandwich was wonderful, the pastry was the star! Flaky, buttery, creamy with a little sweet. Perfect!This was my first experience with Cuban food. Walking into the shop felt like stepping off the streets of Miami. Cuban music played while you order at a counter laden with different pastries. Though the seating is minimal, it is comfortable. The staff was helpful in answering questions and providing suggestions. I will definitely be back and telling everyone I know about this place.

Cuban food that's every bit as good as you'd find in Florida if not better. I've tried probably 3/4 of the menu now, and I've yet to find anything that wasn't superb. Still, the Cuban sandwich is my personal favorite. Nothing beats it, especially when the bread is fresh made in-house. The prices are insanely good too, for both the quantity and quality that you get. Easily my new favorite place to eat in town.Parking: Parking is around back. Plenty of space.
