    When in south Florida it's a must to chow on some Cuban food. So many places to pick in Miami, but where to go in west palm beach? Don Ramons if u want a sit down dinner & Tulipans for lunch & take out are the two most popular in the town. Well today I drove by this spot and gave it a shot. It's a real dive, maybe not the place you take someone to celebrate an anniversary. Its super authentic & delicious though! Sit at the counter & order the cafe con leche, classic Cuban sandwich, and add their hot sauce! You'll have to use your Spanish vocab for some things, like ask for "picante", if you want the hot sauce. When I say this place is authentic, I mean the servers knew very little English, which just makes the food taste even better! Another note, order their unique smoothies. The one with wheat cereal & milk was a sweet treat.

    Amazing pork sandwich and tostones were good too. Ambience, not much to talk about, have to communicate in Spanish and service isn't the fastest I've come across. But having said that Id definitely go back for a pork sandwich, this time id learn a thing or two about Spanish :)

    Dining in today. Steak sandwiches with my girl.

    It has been years since I stopped in for lunch here and today we went with the half sandwich and…read moresoup. Pea soup was very good.. they were out of croutons which was a little disappointing. the sandwich meat (Pastrami) seemed to have shrank a little but still ample for a half sandwich I really wanted to try the Rachael but to much food for today. Pickles on the table upon request. Large menu with so much to choose from. One of the last remaining old fashion deli's in the area!

    This restaurant consistently messes up orders and treats customers with complete disrespect. I've…read moreordered from them multiple times via DoorDash, and almost every single order has been wrong. Today was no exception. I specifically ordered a plain bagel with cream cheese and carefully selected "no lettuce, tomatoes, or onion" on the app. They still added all the unwanted toppings. When I called to speak with a manager about the mistake, the woman who answered was extremely rude. She constantly interrupted me, refused to let me finish a sentence, and then hung up on me. I called back immediately, and the man who answered refused to give me the manager's name before hanging up on me as well. This is not acceptable. You should not have to pay good money for incorrect orders followed by rude, dismissive treatment from management. I contacted DoorDash and received a full refund, but that doesn't change the fact that this place has terrible quality control and even worse customer service. Bottom line: Avoid this restaurant entirely. There are far better options out there that actually care about getting your order right and treating customers with basic respect. Do not waste your time or money here whoever the manager is on duty today April 11, 2026 at 9:20am im sure the owners will know who she was. They refused to tell me her name. wonder why?

There were so many good choices on the menu that intrigued me (including the steak bomb, buff chic, and italian) but OF COURSE I had to try their beef carpaccio sub... it is truly life changing. Fresh crusty baguette, delicious tasty beef carpaccio, fried onion strings with balsamic??? it is just outstanding. In my opinion, it is worth it to get the boxed lunch. IT came with a ginger lemonade, fresh kettle chips, and a delicious chocolate chip cookie with sea salt. omg. and of course a pickle too. This place is just next level. I cant wait to try the shop in the Gables and to also try some different sandwiches on the menu. Pro tip: place your order ahead of time because it will take about 20 minutes for them to make the sandwich.

Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting. It was mediocre at best and honestly felt more on par with something you'd get at Olive Garden than at a restaurant with this kind of vibe and price point. On top of that, the service was quite slow, which made the overall experience feel even more underwhelming. If you're going for drinks, music, and ambiance, it may be worth a visit. But if you're expecting the food and service to match the atmosphere, it falls short.

One guy told us all the items on the menu that he's tried and liked. My husband ordered their meatloaf with mashed potatoes twice (as his 2 sides). It came with a mushroom gravy. He said it was wonderful. I had their ham sliders. Three mini Hawaiian buns, filled with Boar's head ham, melted provolone cheese, and a sweet honey mustard sauce. They were sticky and delicious. They have happy hour specials and different events/entertainment on a rotating calendar. They should do well here once discovered. We will be back to try their touted burgers and steak sandwich... among other things.

Several lunch specials to select. I chose the Meatloaf with two sides. (I chose mashed potatoes TWICE). My Meatloaf was a nice serving of tender, moist and flavorful loaf. The mushroom gravy that came with the mashed potatoes was dark and savory delicious. Service is fast and friendly with a lot of food options, including some interesting Salads. A great lunch stop for us!

Three times we have had something wrong. 1st time we ordered by phone, wrong order,. 2nd time we ordered online, wrong order. The 3rd time , I took pictures of our orders and ordered in person. I showed her my pictures when ordering, no issues. Last week I ordered the western omelet in person. She asked me if I wanted tomatoes, I said si. No tomatoes. The coffee is freaking delicious. So good. Other than the ordering issues, the reason why I keep coming back, is the food is delicious. Everything we have ordered is made in house. The super Cuban sandwich, was the best Cuban I have had, since ordering one about 2 blocks away from Marlins stadium in Miami. The flan was a little rubbery to me. Not as good as the flan I had at the Barcelona wine bar in Delray. Plenty of parking , with plenty of tables inside if you wanted to eat in, Other than the language barrier, everyone who works there are very pleasant and working hard. I will continue to go back and maybe brush up on my Espanol.
