However, the filling was lacking in flavor and was pretty dry. I wish it had been served with a sauce on the side, I think that would have really elevated it. The man working the farmers market stand was very kind and patient and the stand was set up nicely with good signage to show all the flavors. I can't speak to the ambiance of the actual cafe though since I have not seen it.

If you're visiting Ybor City, do yourself a favor and stop by La Segunda Bakery and Cafe. This…read morehistoric bakery has been serving the Tampa community since 1915, and it's easy to see why it's still a local favorite over a century later. (La Segunda Bakery) Everything we tried was incredible! The sandwiches are huge, loaded with flavor, and made on their famous fresh Cuban bread. The empanadas were perfectly seasoned and packed with delicious fillings. And don't even get me started on the pastries, they're fresh, flaky, and absolutely amazing. The best part? The prices are incredibly reasonable, especially for the quality and generous portions you receive. Whether you're grabbing breakfast, lunch, or just satisfying a sweet tooth, La Segunda is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

The guayaba con queso flip was also delicious, but it texture was not quite as outstanding to me when compared to the pastelito. Also tried double press Cuban toast for the first time, and enjoyed every bite. Next time gotta get a cortadito to go with it.

All the different empanadas we tried were delicious and not greasy. I will suggest the basic beef is the best. But the other flavors such as the sausage & cheese was a close second. Two are filling, but big appetites should get three. Price of $4-$5 each are reasonable. They also serve cuban soups, salads and sandwiches.

They are quick to make the order and it's definitely a must try. Here is my order: Chicken and cheese goes best with aji and jalapeño cream ( honestly they all go with these sauces) I got the cilantro sauce and it has a bite to me but I'm spicy sensitive. Pineapple pork with the habanero sauce. Beef and potato is soo delicious, I could just get this and be happy. Goes great with the aji and jalapeño ranch. Philly cheesesteak empanada - okay wasn't my favorite but was still tasty.

Loaded with meats and topping such a good appetizer for sharing! The bandeja paisa was good but I wish the meats were a bit more flavorful. The flan wasn't bad but it did not need the added sprinkles. The fresh juices are amazing I really enjoyed the mango and would definitely order this again! Overall not a bad experience I just enjoy the unique modern dishes that LCPX cafe offers more than what's offered here. I went with two other people and we shared the app and main entree and still had leftover food so the portions are HUGE!

The ladies working were not familiar at all. They also were not friendly and helpful. I was pretty sad. It did make me feel like the previous owners were gone bc either one were there. I hope they are still around and eventually when I come back, I can update this review. We ordered the Hawaiian hot dog and the arepa with beef and chicken. Something was missing. Also we ordered two empanadas. I like their green chimmichuri sauce with it, and as soon as I asked for it, she walked away and never came back. Even the pic on the outside sign shows them with that sauce, but nope never got it. They also have their usual Colombian drinks which are Postobon and Colombiana. They are more expensive and smaller sizes. We will definitely take a break from here. Hope the owners that we know and love will be there.
