I got the Louie and expected more pesto or more flavoring. I wouldn't knock them though because I would be back to try again. I hope they can bring it the next time because they are very big and popular.

Awesome Cuban sandwiches. I do miss some of the other things…read morethey used to sell. Pork with black beans and yellow rice was delicious. More recently I really enjoyed the crab egg rolls. They were great fresh or reheated in an air fryer later. Glad they did not go under during COVID. We drive from Orlando and normally get at least 4 large sandwiches. Highly recommended!!!

There's no white tablecloth, beautiful interior decor, etc. No, this place is the definition of a dive bar. A hole in the wall. Service can be blunt and straightforward. But what makes this place standout is the quality of the sandwich. They might just have the best Italian Cold Cut sandwich in all of Tampa. The bread has such an excellent crisp exterior but a soft and fluffy interior that soaks everything up. The cold cuts are really generous portions, as is the olive spread. This foot long sandwich is bigger and better than anything Subway could ever create. Overall, an amazing sandwich that is worthy of getting :)

Awful. Felt like placing an order was an inconvenience to them while the staff shrieked at each…read morerather over the overly-loud music. 25mins wait for a salad and a Cuban sandwich. It's not like they were busy... only 1 customer in front of me. Basic food, terrible service. Zero value. The most ironic part was the lady standing around on her phone, doing nothing, wearing a Tshirt which proudly stated "I'm not lazy, I'm just conserving my energy." I beg to differ.

The Best Cuban Sandwich…read moreI've Ever Had! How this place doesn't have a line out the door is truly stunning. Let me start off by saying that this hidden gem of a place is so damn good. I'm a foodie, and I make it a point to try new places. My wife dragged me to this place and sweet Jesus thank you for the blessing! The service is great, two guys running the place the day we went, one was the owner. Great story on how it started. The ambiance is chill, they have a tv playing sports, the day I went it was the Olympics and then soccer. Right down the street from Raymond James Stadium on the back street. The place is very comfortable and clean. Try the South Tampa sandwich. Best Cuban you will ever get.

Stumbled upon this gem by accident while visiting Tampa. Was there on a Saturday and it was quiet…read more Only two other patrons. Vibe was very laid back and comforting. We asked the cashier for recommendations and he mentioned the Pork Drizzler and Billy Cheesesteak. We ordered those and a side of fries. I asked for mushrooms on the side for the cheesesteak. Portions are generous so we decided to split both sandwiches. Our favorite was the Billy. The Drizzler was juicy and tasty but the Billy hit it out of the park. The fries were thick and salted just right. I will add that the service here was exceptional. Will definitely be back next time in Tampa!

Another local lunch place new the port of Tampa that brings more Cuban flavors in the area…read more Decent selection of food options here including hot plates. Most of the food is pre made and ready to go. Have had a few sandwiches from this place and liked them all. Service is great and will often offer a free shot of espresso before you go. But this is a small hole in the wall type place. Has some outside seating but mainly designed to order and go.

Recently new ownership, this quaint little shop is motivated to make this place sought after…read more The staff is expeditious at taking orders and orders are filled fast. We shared a Cuban loaded with ham, and could have used a bit more roast pork, but I was not disappointed. Everything was there for makings of a great Cuban. They've also incorporated a good selection of hot foods ready for plating or to-go. New tables and chairs have been added for a sit down for a quick bite. The restroom is clean but a second one would be useful. After our meal, the owner offered a fresh Cafecito sample and spoke with us about how she'd recently taken over for the previous tenets who'd been at this location for 38 years. This is a recommend from me! I won't hesitate to return for another good meal.

This spot is definitely a hidden gem in Channelside! It's inside a bodega style little market…read more People were super friendly all around. The space is tight, but it's all part of the experience, in my opinion. The food was great. We got a traditional sub and a sub-turned-salad. That salad sub left me wanting for nothing. It was so tasty and packed with Italian cold cut goodness! Had a simple latter as well and it was surprisingly good! Didn't expected to walk out of here loving their coffee. We want to return to taste their breakfast sandwiches. Have a feeling those are going to be amazing. We'll be back!

I ordered the Ultimate Italian Sub and added avocado, and it did not disappoint! The meats were freshly sliced, and I had it toasted for that perfect crunch.

You have to try the hummingbird and princess cakes!! I finally had the chance to cater from wrights and was beyond impressed. I only needed a few things to add to what was already planned and went with a veggie tray and a couple cakes. The veggie tray is a fresh, plentiful and unique selection with a stand out homemade dill dip for serving. The alpine cakes were also a huge hit! Service for lunch is always fairly quick and with the recent renovation, the seating area is nice. The service for catering is helpful and quick. I had all my questions answered and suggestions were given based on my needs which were spot on.

I brought my dad here for an early Father's Day lunch. He loves a good Cuban sandwich. Having lived…read morein Hialeah most of his teenage years, Cuban food is one of his favorites. He enjoyed his sandwich and slice of coconut cake. We did have a long wait in line and he took a seat while I waited. Table service and full menu option while seated would be a wonderful addition for Wright's. My dad can't stand up for long periods of time anymore. He's be a good candidate for a meal with table service if it was offered. I was more than willing and happy to wait to for our sandwiches. However, I know our time is limited and every minute with him counts. I enjoyed our meal and look forward to bringing him back sometime soon. Note: the ice machines were out of ice and needed to be refilled. He didn't seem to mind but it would have been nice to enjoy a soda with ice.
