If you're looking for authentic Cuban food, this place is definitely worth a visit! Everything we…read moreordered was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The croquetas were perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, and the Cuban sandwich was one of the best I've had--packed with flavor and made just right. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our meal. The ambiance was another highlight, with a beautiful tropical vibe that made it feel like a little getaway. Great food, excellent service, and a relaxing atmosphere--I highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to come back!

It is warm and welcoming, with display cases stacked with mouthwatering pastries and bites that make it genuinely hard to choose just one thing. Service was upbeat and patient even though the line kept moving. The staff did a nice job guiding first-timers through the menu and explaining the bakery items and drinks. I ordered: - Iced chai latte: honestly disappointing, it was not very rich or spiced and tasted a bit watered down - Empanada de carne (beef): hot, savory, and well-seasoned with a satisfying flaky crust - Hawaiian croissant (ham, white cheese, fresh pineapple): surprisingly good sweet and savory combo that worked better than expected I love how addicting and well the salsa de ajo pairs with the hot bites! The food overall was fresh and comforting, especially the baked items and savory bites. The chai just did not match the level of everything else. The vibe works for both grab-and-go and sitting down to linger. You can easily pop in for a quick bite or settle into a table and take your time with coffee and pastries. Prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes and variety. Parking was easy in the small lot when I went, though it could get tight during peak hours. Great for anyone who loves Latin bakery classics and savory comfort food. I would come back for the food, just not the chai.

Cute little coffee shop located in the East End Market…read more The Ambiance You buy your coffee, or in my case tea, and drink it elsewhere. So, there is no ambiance to speak of however, the little market they're in has several venders, so it's an interesting place to walk around as you enjoy your coffee or tea. The Service The counter service was great. Served, with a smile and an efficient process. I asked for my usual black breakfast tea with honey and steamed milk. The barista, made my tea EXACTLY as I ordered, without hesitation. A true barista is hard to find nowadays but Lineage has one! The Food (or in this case drink) With just the right amount of honey and steamed milk and a great robust English breakfast tea, the tea was made perfectly! It truly was one of the best I've ever had! The Bottom Line Would I go back! You bet. In fact, as I write this review, I can taste that scrumptious tea as it calls me back. If their coffee is anything close to what they did with my tea... you'll be in coffee heaven.

Some of the best-tasting kratom and kava I've had. I am genuinely impressed at how smooth and mild…read moreeverything was here. My partner and I met here for a quick drink with his parents. The interior is dark and moody, but minimal decor. Very sparse. Couch seating was comfy but close to the pool table behind (if someone is playing, you'll hear the CLACK of billiard balls very clearly). Staff are extremely knowledgeable of kratom/kava types, origin, trivia, etc. Felt very comfortable in their hands. JELLO SHOTS: Tasted as you'd expect! No hint of bitterness at all. NITRO LARGE (green kratom): HUGE. This is a STEIN. I split this with my partner and still struggled to finish it. Even unsweetened, this still tasted pretty inoffensive and light; like a bitter iced tea. I felt the effects only 5 mins later. According to the manager (owner?), they've only recently opened after taking over the previous business' space (another kava bar, surprisingly). Definitely recommend giving Pacific Dharma a shot.

However, for the sake of the patron, there's always room, as the few times I've been here its nearly empty. Product: the botanicals, aren't strong (a theme of the Orlando scene). If you're used to strong product, I recommend two largest. The con: hours! They don't exist. Absolutely no consistency! Within the last month and a half, I've been here 4x. Out of these 4x only twice were they open. I came in the evening around 7PM and a Monday at 3PM and theres no signs of life. For someone that doesn't live in the area, this is an inconvenience. Therefore, I can't recommend this business. Those that maybe new or visiting the area, there is Sodo Kava down the road from here.

I got the banana bread latte with oat milk, which also had real banana puree in it, delicious! They had a nice space filled with tables and chairs for people to hang out, work, study, etc. and the lighting was a nice ambiance. Just a note for anyone visiting, they do have a Christian influence throughout the store, but didn't feel overbearing or pressuring, just kind vibes. It's situated in a little strip mall so there is plenty of parking in front and around the business Next time I'm in Orlando, I'll be back!

I am so glad I could come here and watch the Olympics while enjoying some free popcorn and obviously enjoying a beer with my husband. There's also good music playing, and a lively exciting ambience.

I was a little apprehensive that it would be weird to have a sour beer that was dessert flavored like this but I really quite enjoy it! I'm really excited to come back here soon and try out more of the different beers and of course enjoy more of the free popcorn!
