All In
Alison B.

I was so excited to be off on a weekday to try this place! The service was excellent and once my friend arrived we ordered at the counter and found a seat. The coffee and food were made fresh and the decor was simple but cute. The inside had a few tables, and since it was raining no one was outside. It was a quiet, homey spot in the middle of downtown. I really enjoyed the flavors of my food and having delicious Cuban coffee and Cuban bread. The All In was a nice portion with a little bit of everything. The coffee was sweet without being too sweet. I also tried the guava and cheese pastry which was good! I will be back as soon as I can!

Cinnamon roll and coffee
Steven C.

Outstanding coffee, sandwiches (Cuban looked awesome) best cinnamon roll around not super sweet, and tasty empanadas and croquettes. Everything is outstanding. Heavenly small spot in downtown. Great service and atmosphere. Most highly recommended! 5 stars.

Outstanding

I highly recommend Cindy's! I have had many Cuban sandwiches in Central Florida and these are the best! The pork is amazing as is the ham. Great pickles and the bread is so so good. Great service and Cindy is awesome. They are only open Monday through Friday but man the food is great as well as the at home feel. Don't forget the Cuban coffee. It's the real deal! If you are in that part of town it's well worth a visit. Tight parking but easily managed. I can't wait to go try other dishes.

Cafecito

Amazing Cuban restaurant. Great service and the owner Cindy was very nice. Took time to talk to us about her business and always thank God for a good and happy life .

Media noche sandwich
Veronica C.

This place is such a hidden gem! I didn't see a parking lot so I parked in the hospital parking garage but man is that walk worth it! I tried the media noche sandwich, a picadillo empanada, and finished it off with a café con leche. The hours are a little tricky but if you can get in before they close, I highly recommend!

Patio
Tim D.

Food was ok and the staff was also just ok. We ate there after the hospital but likely will not return.

Main entrance

Doesn't look like much and parking is a bit interesting. But the place is very cute and clean. Great corner location. Staff is friendly. Ambience is relaxing. Food was delicious.

Great Customer service. Mrs. Susana was very nice and patient explained to me about all the delicious goodies they had :) I got a 2 expresso shot, a Cuban melted grilled cheese and a quesito with cheese inside :) Everything was so delicious, oops, I got some extra quesitos to take home too. Definitely recommend if you around the area. Hope my comments helps you to make a good choice for your breakfast and thanks for reading too :)

Steak and onions dish "Bistec"
Jazmine H.

I love cuban food -- I've had better bistec to be honest. Everything else was pretty okay and overall I enjoyed my visit especially the cafe con leche, it was really well made. Good spot to grab something for lunch since they do have sandwiches that look pretty tasty. Staff was friendly and attentive! The restaurant itself is on a busy street with an outside patio area which was really nice.

Food was awesome, employees were super friendly. The only downside to this place is that it was packed and crowded, although I can see why!

This restaurant is absolutely stunning! The layout and design of this place is perfection. Perfect…read morefor a date night or a girls night out. Our server was phenomenal and so passionate about the chef and what his cuisine is all about. We were so fascinated that we wound up ordering the entire left side of the appetizer menu options, some twice! The standout food for us are the empanadas and the chorizo sliders. The flavor on both of these dishes were unlike anything we've ever tasted. This will be my go to restaurant in Orlando the next time I'm in town

This is an upscale Latin American fusion vibe. The portions are very middle of the road - not a lot of food for the price, but the presentation and attention to detail makes up for that. The bread for the table was a sweet coconut bread - I really liked this unique touch! We tried the Arugula Salad, Calabaza Raviolis, Langosta, and Tres Leches. Everything was delicious! The Arugula Salad was very fresh and flavorful and that dish was enough for two people to share as an appetizer/side salad. The raviolis and langosta were beautiful and complemented each other very well. The Tres Leches was again very beautifully presented and tasty, but I probably wouldn't order it again (a little too dry and too sweet for me). Overall this was a really nice special occasion or date night experience. Our server was very attentive and seemed passionate about the concept of the restaurant and the menu, which made the experience even more fun!

I stopped for dinner during the week. I had no reservations. There was no wait. I was seated right…read moreaway. I started with a Mijito. It was delicious. I then tried the Churrasco Mofongo. The whole dish was delicious. That chimichurri sauce was out of this world. It just completed the dish to perfection. My waitress, Samarie, was polite and very attentive. She took my order promptly. My food was out in no time. The restaurant is located in a small plaza. Parking might be limited around dinner time. I was there a little earlier so I had no problem parking.

We first found Crocante at the Winter Park Farmers Market and tried their pork porchetta sandwich,…read morewhich was amazing. Once we found out they had a restaurant, we knew we had to check it out. The restaurant itself is beautiful inside with great vibes and a nice atmosphere. Our first visit was mostly good, but I would not recommend the tripleta. All you taste is the burnt tortilla, and it wasn't like a typical tripleta sandwich. The second time we went was for a graduation celebration, and sadly most of the food was a miss. The grilled chicken and sauces were especially disappointing--expensive, bland, and not something I'd order again. The drinks were also disappointing and tasted more like sugary syrup than actual cocktails or fresh drinks. We chalked it up to maybe being an off day. That being said, we also ordered catering for the graduation before the unfortunate dinner, and the catering was amazing. We ordered pernil, leg porchetta, arroz con gandules, and roasted whole chicken. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well done with no complaints at all. I just wish the dine-in experience matched the catering and food truck experience better. Overall, I would still recommend Crocante because when they're good, they're really good. The service was okay, nothing special, but not bad either. The space is beautiful, the vibes are great, and some items are definitely worth trying.
