    Chicken Soup
    Ashley C.

    This week I was under the weather & my friend gifted me chicken soup from Don Pan. Normally I just order their shredded beef empanadas, which are my favorite of all time, so I was curious to see if I'd like their soup. I loved it! Not only was it flavorful but it was also filling. I got three meals out of the two soup orders with white rice to share! Historically the customer service is great when I order in-person and there is plenty of clean, indoor seating. I would happily order their soup & empanadas again soon.

    Still a strong 5 star coffee shop. The place was packed with customers as usual. I ordered an expresso with a side of sugar and cream to cut it. It was ready within three minutes hot and delish as usual. No pastry for me on today's adventure. I noticed that as soon as a customer exited the shop an employee immediately cleaned the floor and table.

    I just went to order to go and the service was super fast! I ordered a good amount and was in and out within 5-10 minutes! If you want to sit and eat there are a good amount of tables. The food was soooo good! I got tequenos, croquetas, and empanadas. Everything was great, would definitely go back!

    Good food with mostly Venezuelan roots. If they're not too busy service is quick. I had the pabe bowl and it was good. The shredded meat was satisfactory but could have been a little more juicier and flavored more. The reina pepiada did hit the spot - recommended if you like avocado. Good stop to make if you are shopping at the sawgrass outlets as it's in a plaza on the outskirts of the main Sawgrass mall circle.

    I used to go to this Don Pan location many moons ago so being in the area, I just had to stop by and get an arepa. I ordered an Arepa Pabellon which is stuffed with shredded beef, white cheese, sweet plantains and black beans. However, I opted out the beans. I felt is was alittle on the expensive side but it tasted good. They also have a lot of different pastries and desserts. I was trying to behave so I didn't get anything but they looked yummy nevertheless.

    The food is amazing! Authentic Cuban food/coffee. I had the cuban breakfast with a cafécon Leche. The service was quick and she spoke Spanish and English. The shop has space to eat but it is also very packed most of the time. There was about 5 people head of me and took 8 minutes to get to the front of it. I will be back to try the flan!

    Typically we only order food out for dinner but was in the mood for something different for breakfast. We decided on Don Pan, which I haven't had since I used to live in Miami. I was really hungry when the food arrived but it was pretty good. -mango juice: pretty good, very thick more like a nectar, I watered it down a bit and that basically tripled the amount it came with -scrambled eggs, shredded beef, arepa, and beans: all very tasty. The only thing with significant room for improvement was the black beans. The beans were still a bit tough so they need to be cooked longer -Cuban sandwich: I would recommend maybe getting fresh vs for delivery as it got a little soggy on one end in the take out bag. The sandwich itself was eh. The bread wasn't the freshest and not pressed well. The meat was also a bit too thick for my taste, I would have preferred slices of meat and not chunks. -pastry with ham: pretty good would reorder Overall still a great place to order from if you are craving this kind of food and don't want to go down to Miami for the real deal

    Love a good Arepa and the variety in Venezuelan and Cuban pastry you can't go wrong. My go-to is the Pabellon rice, beans, plantains, and shredded beef.. what more can you ask for? I absolutely enjoy the burst in flavor and the sweetness from the ripe plantains. The Cuban pastries are also good in flavor but can sometimes be too soft and oily. Besides that, I'll hit them up for the arepas.

    La gente tiene que saber que aquí la comida cae al piso y pretenden que la recojas y te la comas como si nada! El pan de jamón se salió de la caja que ellos no sellaron y recogieron el pan y lo volvieron a meter en la caja! Que asco!!! En manager Roger es un hombre súper grosero! Que decepción!

    A quaint little Latin bakery and restaurant tucked away in this plaza which serves coffee, pastries and other baked goods. Sandwiches, arepas & lunch specials. I think better known for their bakery items. They also have featured specials each week. I sampled the Chicken tamale(Hayaca) which was fantastic! And Shredded beef(Pabellon) similar to Ropa Vieja, rice and beans and plantains. And a Cortadito (coffee). All was very good. Had no room for any pastries, but definitely next time!

    To go box

    They have good pandebonos. Their empanadas are very greasy for me. The cakes and areas are very good. Their brazo de reina is good. They have a good natural orange juic

    Very solid sandwich. A bit slow to get, but figured that was because they were making it fresh. The bread was outstanding. Easy experience.

I came in on a Sunday morning around 10am and it was super crowded, which was a good sign. Despite the crowd, the line moved fast and my order came out really quickly. They have more matcha flavors than anywhere else I've seen, so it was a hard choice. I ended up going with the marshmallow, and I'm super happy with my choice. The matcha and marshmallow flavors were both strong and complemented each other well. They have a pastry case that I completely missed because it's around the corner, or I might have tried something there too. I love the cute animal decor as well, and I don't believe they charged extra for alternative milks, which is always huge bonus points for me. I'll definitely be back to try other flavors and maybe an empanada!

I would recommend this as a good place to chat with a friend over a space for studying or working. Especially because I found the staff lovely and conversational. Their prices are far more reasonable than many other local coffee shops nearby which was definitely a major plus. I enjoyed the lavender latte, but would probably only get it hot in the future, and would try a different iced latte flavor. The spicy chicken empanada was delicious and I would definitely get it again. It had a nice curry sauce inside (though it wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be). The ham and cheese sandwich was also surprisingly good. Though simple, they tasted like quality ingredients.
