Guava & Cheese Pastry
Rissi R.

I was craving empanadas and guava con queso for lunch. Went on yelp and found this place. I was going to order online but said naaa let me drive over and see exactly what they have. I drove there and the place was empty except for the employees of course. Very quiet in there. I was greeted as I walked in. The food cases were nicely stocked w/ baked/fried goods. They had different drink yo choose from also. There were so many different selections I was excited. I was going to go crazy in there because I wanted to try one of EVERYTHING lol. I stuck to my guns though and ordered 2 meat empanadas and 2 guava con queso to go. The total was about $14. I got home and the brown bag they put the empanadas in was soaked with oil. I took them out of the bag and placed them on a paper towel. They were still warm but VERY VERY GREASY! The grease soaked the paper towels also. I bit into one and I was a little disappointed. It was very very sweet like corn bread or hushpuppies w/ beef in them. The beef was tasteless. I added LOT of hot sauce to them. I later felt that oil sitting on my chest. Wish I would've taken a pic of the oil soiled paper bag. As for the guava con queso or shall I say lack of. It was a nice size flaky pastry with guava and cheese spread like butter. There was pretty much no filling inside that huge pastry. I was so upset. Def won't be going back there. Publix has better pastry than that but I was trying to stick w/ the roots. I opened both of them to make sure I was not missing anything but nope both had a dollop in them.

Boyfriend decided to bring us here on this rainy Wednesday afternoon, PERFECT time to sit down and enjoy some yummy Latin American food! Bakery/cafe style restaurant. Boyfriend is Colombian, and speaks Spanish fluently so I let him do the ordering, however the staff does speak English. Anything we had a question about the girl at the counter was more than helpful to answer. Ended up getting a pork, chicken and steak arepa, with 2 fresh mango juices. So so so so unbelievably yummy! A bit oily than any other arepa I've had but delicious nonetheless! Served with a side of what tasted like cilantro garlic sauce. And can't go wrong with fresh fruit juice! Before we left, we got TO-GO some cheese breads and assortment of Venezuelan style arepas along with the Sancocho de castilla soup, and a cafe con leche, to wake my ass up! Delicious! Really is a wonderful place to try out if you are craving a Latin treat!

Came here early morning before my job for some much missed childhood eats. Growing up in south Florida you are prone to running into one of these Hispanic bakery/ coffee shops. I was so happy to find out that it was one of the close to my house. Place is hidden right off of Wiles Road. When I came in it was nobody here clean friendly staff. I have a Cuban breakfast sandwich that comes with scrambled eggs, cheese, and bacon with the cappuccino. Talk about hot and fresh! The bread was so soft, there was an excess amount of eggs but who doesn't like more protein next time I'll tell them to just put a little bit. Also they offered samples of their fresh made cheese bread which is my ultimate favorite Loved it! will definitely back here.

Okay, maybe Don Pan is fast food and no self respecting Cuban/Venezuelan/Argentinian would consider it serious ethnic cuisine from their respective lands. But sometimes what you want is fast food. You're busy, and you want to be able to walk in, order something quickly, grab it from the counter, sit down at a table, and have a quick lunch or snack. Or, in this case, some baked goods and a cafecito. Cuban coffee/bakery places are not something we have in large supply in Coral Springs. We have two El Cubano locations and the excellent Crocante on University in the Walk, which is Argentinian -- and more upscale than Don Pan. But if you want the style of cafe colada that they serve on Calle Ocho in Miami, with the right kind of pastries to go with it -- then Don Pan is your place, not these two. Here you'll get the kind in the little styrofoam cup, with that big dose of sugar stirred into it. Don Pan's is made with Real Cafe, roasted here in South Florida, and it's dark Cuban-style espresso pouring out piping hot from a doubleheader commercial machine. Strong and very (shall I say diabetic-level) sweet. Tired? You can go from fatigued to bouncing off the walls in a manner of minutes after drinking one of those. You're not going to have one of those on an empty stomach. Oh no, you're going to want something to absorb it. At Don Pan, I strongly recommend a cachito -- a style of Venezuelan pastry similar to a croissant but is more of an eggy yeast bread consistency. I strongly recommend the Ham and Cheese version, which has finely chopped ham and a white cheese inside similar to mozzarella. There are also excellent empanadas here. Both Venezuela's and Argentina's styles are dutifully represented. The Venezuelan style eschews the pastry crust style you might see with Cuban or Puerto Rican types in favor of sweet corn masa, which is then deep-fried. My favorite here is the Shredded Meat, which is made with the corn curst, and is stuffed to the gills with fall-apart beef, likely a chuck roast, similar to a Cuban ropa vieja. It's excellent. One with a coffee is an excellent snack; two is a meal. And if you manage to get here right after 8 PM, you can buy two pastries for the price of one, because they won't keep them for the next day. Now, here is where the naysayers are going to laugh at me. The best thing I've had here is their Cuban sandwich. No, I'm not joking. Firstly, it's not a traditional sandwich cubano because they are not using the correct pan de agua; they are using something more akin to an Italian roll, which is chewier. They also are not using sliced roast pork in a traditional sandwich either; they are using slow-cooked pulled pork (likely shoulder) seasoned with a garlic mojo that is fall-apart soft, with a ton of juice in it. And they use quite a bit of it on their sandwich, along with sliced ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard, for a whole $8. They don't cook the pork in-house at their stores; it comes from their central kitchen in Miami -- but damn is it good. This is a hefty sandwich for that price, and they press it well so that the cheese gets all gooey and oozing out the side. Is it the traditional style you get at some of our other local places like Juana la Cubana or the aforementioned El Cubano? Nope. But is it good? Oh, heck yes.

Stopped in today to see what they have and tried a few really good things. First of all, CAFE CON LECHE! I have been back twice and its always delicious, but it needs to be hotter (if you are listening, three times delicious, three times not hot, ok?) tried every empanada they had, can't pick a favorite, all were good. Their Cheese Bread was in a word SUBLIME. Go there, your going to wish you had hotter coffee, trust me. (Again, if your listening, thanks)

We were greeted by the owner as soon as we walked in. I ordered a latte, crossaint and crodut. It was a little crowded due to limited space so we ordered it to go. We waited outside and watched the little bird feeders they have. Within 5 minutes everything was warmed and ready to go. They offered me a free latte because they got the milk on the first one wrong. I really didnt mind either way. But they still apologized and gave me both to keep. The coffee is delicious. Not too sweet or bitter, great strong coffee taste. Crossaint was warm and flakey and the mini crodut was the perfect size. Just big enough to satisfy any sweet tooth Will definately be back!

It's a busy little place, offering a solid cafe menu, coffee, and reliable Wi-Fi. The owners are hands-on, helping out behind the counter and supporting staff with clean-up, which makes the space feel welcoming and well-run. Being in a shopping center, parking is available but can be limited depending on the time of day. The inside is small, but the layout works well for small groups. They have conference-style tables, high tops, and charging ports. During the festive season, the cozy decor adds a cheerful touch. The staff were approachable and helpful, answering our questions clearly. They serve all-day brunch, sandwiches, flatbreads, salads, and bowls, so there's something for everyone. My friend tried the omelet with toast and really enjoyed it. I went for the Carmela pancake. Honestly, I expected a bit more for $14. It was a small cornbread skillet topped with strawberries, blueberries, granola, and maple syrup. It looked great, but I felt it wasn't worth the price; a sandwich might have been a better choice, but the staff had recommended this. We also had a small misunderstanding where I was charged for both dishes as we discussed options, but the staff were prompt in correcting it and issuing a refund. Drinks included a Matcha and a Tiramisu, with dairy-free options available. The coffee was rich and smooth. I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but I genuinely enjoyed it. Overall, the cafe has a relaxed, cozy vibe. It's the kind of place where you can work, catch up with friends, there was even a small group having Bible study on the patio. Where food meets adventure see you back at the table! IG: @ShallonzTable

I ordered the delectable Tiramasu Latte. I enjoyed the mix of flavors combined with a double shot of espresso, vanilla, almond milk, mascarpone cold foam with a dusting of cocoa powder.

So many different types of Artisan style filled croissants, fresh Argentinian empanadas made from the freshest ingredients. The coffee beans are roasted in small batches and are very flavorful.

I'm assuming it's the owner who took care of us. Very nice and quick. We got a hot vanilla latte, a matcha latte with vanilla cold foam (lightly sweetened), and two bacon, egg, and cheese croissants. They make your food to order and bring it to your table. The sandwiches were hot and delicious. Now, onto the drinks. It's very challenging to find good quality matcha out in the wild. This latte was one of the best I've had out and about. It comes unsweetened, and before I mixed the cold foam in, I was able to just taste the matcha with the almond milk. It actually tasted like matcha, unlike most places. The cold foam was delicious and lightly sweetened just like I asked for. My husband loved his vanilla latte and the foam art on it was beautiful. It was a bit over $50 for the two of us with a tip, but for me I'd rather pay that and actually get food and drinks I ENJOY, instead of the mediocre at best stuff a lot of places serve up. Ambiance was nice, place had a steady stream of people coming in but it wasn't loud or anything. A very enjoyable experience and we'll be back!

Almost all of them were actively talking about how good their sandwiches were! Besides my sandwich, I took a picture of a sandwich at the next table with chicken and vodka sauce. This is a MUST TRY lunch spot when you're here. They also served an amazing vanilla latte as well! They are also an espresso bar, so try a caffeine drink as well.
