Just Love Coffee Cafe was such a cute little stop! I came in briefly to get some study time in, and…read moreit ended up being a really nice experience. The inside has a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes it easy to sit down, relax, and get some work done without feeling rushed. I ordered the cinnamon waffle bites, and they were delicious. They were sweet, warm, and the perfect little treat to snack on while studying. I also got the turtle latte, which was really good and had a nice balance of sweetness without being too overpowering. The owner was friendly, which always makes a difference, especially at a local coffee spot. Overall, this was a great quick visit with good coffee, tasty bites, and a nice atmosphere. I would definitely recommend stopping by, whether you're grabbing something quick or looking for a comfortable place to sit for a bit.

Absolutely terrible experience. The biscuits tasted like they had been sitting around for a couple…read moreof days and were anything but fresh. The "fresh fruit" was clearly not fresh, and the soup tasted like it had been made the day before--and unfortunately, it showed. The quality of the food was extremely disappointing. What made the experience even worse was the management. There was a complete lack of concern about the quality issues, and the way the situation was handled was extremely unprofessional. When customers are paying for a meal, they should be able to expect fresh food and management that actually cares about addressing problems. Sadly, this was a very disappointing experience, and based on the food quality and the poor management, I would not recommend this restaurant.

I enjoy their country cooking but, the chicken had a funny taste and was the dryest I have ever had. The catfish was extremely good. The buffet was full of veggies, their signature dishes. Some looked over cooked, considering it was only 12:30 p.m. When I got to the car I asked my husband much the bill was. It came to $56.00 tip included with one drink. The charge was $22.99 a dinner not including drink. I was in shock. It was around $15.99 the last time we ate there. I can have a steak dinner at a nice restaurant for $24. It will the last time we eat there.

Outstanding. Dare I…read moresay superlative? The apple and pecan pie (separate) is worth the price of admission alone. The fried chicken is good but not great. What is great? The meatloaf.

Waitress…read morerefused to sub the cheese and instead charged me an extra $2 because she said I had to purchase the byo omelette. It's not about the money it's principle. It's such a joke. Then the home fries tasted like eating a salt brick. The waitress didn't come back to do a check after she got someone else to deliver the food. I couldn't get a glass of water. This place has just completely gone down hill. I recommend anyone wanting to substitute items in the omelette just do build your own and take the difference out of the tip. If this establishment wants to be this petty I'll tip accordingly. I'm super dissatisfied and disappointed in this place.

As my dinner I was really excited to have the redfish special as this is one of my favorite dishes. Unfortunately I just didn't like the way it was prepared. It was sweet and not my vibe but the Brussels sprouts were really good. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their dishes. Just because I didn't like my dinner it wouldn't deter me from coming back here. I would just try something else!

Colombian spots like this are my jam & it's been on my list to visit for a minute now. The breakfast Sammy definitely set this place apart from the rest. I'd never heard of this before and honestly it's quite genius. I went on a Saturday morning and boy was it busy busy! I placed my order with the friendly attendant the wait was a bit long but there was plenty of seating inside (i didn't realize how big this place was inside!) so i sat with my book and before i knew it i was walking out with my order! Thankfully i don't live far so i was home with my order in no time. The breakfast waffle Sammy was delicious i ordered mine with sausage and split half of it with my husband. It was soft and cheesy and I'd definitely get it again next time. I also ordered 3 regular pan de Bonos, an arepa con queso, alfajores, and i heard the guava and cheese muffins were a must so i grabbed one too. Oh yeah and two cafe con leches. I see they have lunch as well so I'm gonna have to go back for a lunch Sammy and maybe some empanadas. I love that they have all the tables inside. It's a cute spot to meet with friends for cafecito and treats.

My wife and I just happened upon this place by accident. We had a very simple order, we ordered two…read moreCuban sandwiches for takeout, as we were driving on a long distance road trip and this place was on our route. I've been eating Cuban sandwiches for over 50 years and I'm pretty picky. Most Cuban sandwiches I try are pretty underwhelming and often have the wrong ingredients. These sandwiches from Box of Cubans were absolutely amazing. The roasted pork was incredible and perfectly cooked / seasoned. I had large chunks of roast pork in my larger sandwich, (my wife's was slightly smaller). She was also shocked at how good the sandwich was. The bread was sublime. The cheese was perfectly melted and the pickles had a nice crunch, thin sliced and perfect flavor. The ham was great. No salami in these - which was a nice treat - for a Cuban sandwich from the Tampa area (IYKYK). Outstanding! 5 stars! We will definitely go back to try other menu items!

Alright y'all, here we go with the official review for Box of Cubans - 10451 Gibsonton Dr…read more First things first -- the customer service? Absolutely loved it The guy at the front was on point the whole time. Even coming in right after the lunch rush, he made sure everything stayed clean and organized while still taking care of customers. That kind of attention to detail does not go unnoticed They were out of the sweet teas (I was hurt a little bit ), but overall the experience was still really good. Now let's get into the food because you already know that's what we're here for The chicken empanadas? Delicious. No complaints. The Cuban sandwich? It was good... but I'm gonna keep it real like I always do. The meat was flavorful, but it could've been more evenly distributed, and it didn't have that crispy bread texture I look for. Overall, it just didn't hit that top-tier level for me. So for this location: 8/10 Still a solid experience, still worth the visit -- but as of right now, the Wesley Chapel location is still holding that 10/10 crown And you already know I'm not done... Valrico, I'm coming next. That's Just How Life Goes... and of course, Just How Food Goes
