We love this place. The food is fresh and delicious. Staff is always awesome. Only problem is we eat too much. It's all so good. They offer so many choices. Have never had a bad meal here. Will be back soon. read more

My family and I recently visited the area for vacation- we ate at Sofrito 4 out of the 5 days! We had options for everyone, including a toddler and a vegetarian person in our group. The food is really good and the drinks are awesome too. We had daily fruit smoothies and tried the frozen margaritas as well, also yummy. The staff was very pleasant each time we went. Very family friendly and bonus: bathroom was also clean!! read more

You order as you walk In reminds me a fast food restaurant then They ask you for a tip‍ and they give you a number and bring the food to your table. Not much of a service to tip for. The food cane out before the drinks so we had to wait !! So our food got cold. Needless to say, I will not be coming back read more

Food was good. Wait staff seemed a little out of sorts...probably just having a bad day.

DON'T FORGET TO USE THE YELP CHECK-IN BEFORE YOU PAY. -- I got $5 discount by doing so. Tho the reception in the are isn't that good. Luckily I was able to get some reception and use this awesome deal This place is awesome. Its quite spacious, well decorated and awesome ambiance. Not to mention the music was on the spot We ordered our dish from the front and it was named "Picada For Two" which was a sampler that was a mix of tostones, mini arepas con queso de mano, fried yucca, steak, chicken, chicharron (the skin was very crispy and super tasty) and salad with avocado. This dish was superb. Glad that we made the right choice! :) Definitively one of the best place to come for food in FL : ) read more

AMAZING . We went with a large group so ordered a little of everything and nothing disappointed. All fresh and authentic. You ordered up front and then they bring you your food. Loved the Cuban music they were playing. Posted pics. Super fun place although in a random strip mall type location where parking is tough. read more

Stopped in for lunch with a group of friends. You order your food up at the touch screen counter, take a number and seat yourself. There is a bar and then water station. Breakfast ends at 11. I ordered a chicken soup with ham croquettes. We grabbed a table outside. The seating outside is shaded and covered so it was nice. They bring your food out within 10-15 mins. The soup was a big portion, I couldn't finish it. It was inexpensive as well. The sandwiches were pretty good. I could've done without the ham croquettes. I do want to come back for breakfast though. We had initially tried to come for that but was too late. read more

First we thought this was a sit down restaurant. I mean you can sit, but you order at the counter and they deliver your food to you. Check in on yelp for $5 off $30. The food: we both had roast pork which comes with 3 sides and a small salad. My sides were white rice, red beans & sweet plantains. My husband had the same except with French fries. And we had 2 chicken empanadas. Pros: the pork is flavorful and good. The beans are probably the highlight, delicious and the plantains are great! The chicken in the empanadas was dry and not very flavorful. We sat outside under the heaters, it is a cold evening here in Orlando! This wasn't what I expected but it was good. Very good for the money, especially in a touristy area! read more

DON'T FORGET TO USE THE YELP CHECK-IN BEFORE YOU PAY. -- It's in bold bc I checked in after the fact... :( I really liked how they label their menu with the food's country of origin or at least the food style from a particular region. It gave us a perspective of the regional food variations. The espresso shot and iced latte were so so. Nothing noteworthy to mention. The Venezuela empanada was really good. I've had plenty of empanadas, and this version was the most delectable. The coating was nice and crispy without being too doughy. It was a sizable portion as well. The pernil (pork) arepa was pretty tasty with a good portion. This was really flavorful and messy to consume. The sauce kept dripping out. There was plenty of filling that was also oozing out. On the bright side, they jammed pack it with lots of meat. The churrasco (?) was interesting with a nice display. The skirt steak was sizable, pretty flavorful, and tender. There was a nice array of food. The plantains were really tasty: soft and sweet. The tostones were the opposite with a nice crunchy texture. The salad and potatoes were nice fillers. All food items worked well together that were very filling. read more

The food was good, but not to the level to have more 4.5. Good QPR. Child friendly with inside and outside sitting.

Ordered the chimichurri steak and it was amazing. Got to choose three sides and I got the yellow rice, sweet plantains, and Yuca fries. Also came with small salad. The pineapple soda was also really good. It was busy place but I got seated right away. read more

It's a cute little spot with inside/outdoor dining. Right next to the Starbucks if you are arriving the first time. Maybe 50 seats inside and about 10 bar seats. Lots of natural light because the windows but large but it is cool inside and a great escape from the Florida heat! Family friendly and super clean - floors, baseboards, and tables, everything! I'll get the only two "not perfect" comments out of the way, right away, because there's so much good to say! The seats are metal and a bit uncomfortable. Also they have no servers. You don't have someone coming back to check on you but everyone is super friendly. I suspect they are having staffing issues like so many other places. ‍ You give your order to the person at the register, pay, take a number to a table. Remember to grab your pre-wrapped silverware! They have complimentary water at the same station. They bring your food to the table. I ordered all sides. Cuban black beans and yellow rice. The woman at the register suggested appetizer tequeños and I also got vanilla flan, marroncito, and water. My flan came out first with my coffee, so I had my dessert first! Yummy and fun! Adult privilege to eat dessert first! It was amazing. Perfectly made. Perfect texture and perfectly baked! Smoooooth. I'm saying perfect so much because it was, well, perfect! The mini Tequeños came on their own small tray, very hot! Thank you!!! The side sauce was a rich and delicious garlic-cilantro and more than needed. They were so good and the pastry was perfect. There I go with that perfect word again!!! The black beans and yellow rice were sides so the portions were smaller, but just what I wanted! The Queen Bean, the black bean, was cooked with garlic and a few seasonings. There was a rich gravy for them but it was far more beans. The yellow rice had its own tray too. There were bits of green and red pepper and the rice was cooked, yes, you know it, perfectly! All the flavors were rich, fresh, and nothing was overpowering. I particularly appreciate two things: the food was all served hot and NOT microwave hot. I've worked in restaurants and hot food is typically a good indicator of care and attention to food safety. Plus no one wants all the food microwave hot And no one flavoring was overpowering and I'm so glad not over salted. Each table offers its own salt, pepper, ketchup, and Sofrito sauce. My total was $32 but tip and tax was $6. The coffee was $4.75 and super fresh with a fresh aroma and cute design on top with fresh cream. The flan was $4. I splurged a little because I read so many good reviews here on Yelp! Plus I see the restaurant engaging with posts which indicates they care. I'm on my way to work at a conference and this was just what I wanted: enough/ not too much; fresh, flavorful, and sustaining. Thank you for a great lunch! read more

The food was delicious! I came here with my hubby and we ordered the roast chicken, rice and beans and plantains, passion fruit juice and mango juice. The drinks were made in house. You walk in the place and you order your food first. Once you order, you find a place to sit and they bring your food to you. They are generous with the portions. I love plantains but preferred the sweet ones over the tostones. read more

Sofrito Latin Cafe - Half roasted chicken, rice and beans, plantains and salad - Latin American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Visiting the Disney all sports resort and decided this place for delivery. Absolutely delicious! Chicken arepa - flavorful, kids meal was packed with goodies: ham and cheese sandwich which was great, side of tostones - so crispy, and it came with a drink too. Got a side of scorpion hot sauce, and yes it has the heat I was looking for - be careful of this one, it definitely uses scorpion peppers because my mouth was on fire! Highly recommended spot. read more

Staying fairly close to the location and wanted to try some of its food to the locals(visiting from California). Upon entering hostesses (Taylor) wasn't welcoming, maybe it was because they have a self ordering kiosk. The ambiance is carried well with the music. The bartender(Hayley) was rude when we asked for our delayed drinks. Food was delicious, recommend everything we ordered (see pictures). The Cuban Libre was on point. Check out this place if in the area. read more

Ordered some sandwiches and side items, they were fresh and tasty, although we really believed they needed more seasoning. Portion sizes were generous! This is a fast casual restaurant - no wait staff. You place your own order at the host stand, then take a seat and wait for a staff member to drop off your food. Despite the fact that several staff members walked past our table and we flagged them down....they ignored our requests. (more sauce, some ice for the drinks, etc) The irony? This is one of those places that asks you to tip in advance. For what? what are you tipping for? For someone to bring your food? well how else are you going to eat it if they don't bring it to you? lol. As long as you don't have service expectations, you can get a decent meal here in a tourist location...so there's that. read more

Food was low quality and cold when served. They only had Plastic cups when we asked for water. Good was not even seasoned properly for a "Latin" restaurant. read more

Your order at the front and sit down with your table number. The food came out quick and was absolutely delicious! Definitely would recommend!! read more

We were a medium size party with littles and wanted some good authentic food that wasn't too expensive and could fill us up after a long day at the adventure parks. This place got rave reviews, so we hit it up and it did not disappoint. The set up was interesting as you go up and order your food and drinks and then later they give it to you. It was nice so that we could just get it all done and paid for and rally the kiddos to their seats. There was no one outside and we didn't want to be loud so we asked if we could sit out there and it was great! They had warmers, high walls to keep up in and safe, the kids got to run around and eat and we got to have some great food and drinks and wind down from a full day. Everything was delicious, the meat, the seafood, the bananas, the rice, full of flavor and spicy and just what we needed. I would love to try this place again. read more

I chose this place to eat because of the Yelp reviews and also because I overheard someone at Volleyball Nationals raving about how delicious the food is. The servers were very helpful. I ordered the Cuban roast pork which was tender, well seasoned, and delicious. It melts in your mouth. The portion size was great and I was able to take half of it home for dinner. The potatoes and yellow rice were cooked well and complemented the meal perfectly. I do have to rave about the plantains. I've been to other places and they weren't always my favorite; however, I LOVED them here. When I placed these plantains in my mouth, they reminded me of Filipino Turon (bananas wrapped in egg roll wrapper and fried). It was delicious. The outer part of the plantains had a nice, somewhat sticky texture. It was like dessert! I highly recommend this place. The ambiance was nice and I loved their decor with the basket lighting above and a beautiful place to sit outside if you so choose. Service was great and they walked around asking if you needed anything. Very polite and helpful! If you're looking for a Latin place, this is it--Peruvian, Cuban, Argentinian, etc. They have many options! read more

Shrimp was quite salty and the yuca was very bland. The salad was served with no dressing. I up and left. Very disappointed.

What a pleasant surprise! A trendy restaurant with a casual feel. First thing we noticed was the multi-cultural crowd. Very diverse just like the food selection. Decor is like an upscale restaurant, very nice. The menu has many dishes from many different Latin countries. We ordered at the kiosk and then took a number and sat down. Staff was very hospitable and the manager came over and checked in us. We ordered the Camarones al Ajillo, a Puerto Rican dish; a Venezuelan Empanada; and Cuban Mini Quesitos. The Camarones (Shrimp) was some of the best we have ever eaten. (Being from Louisiana that says a lot.) I believe they were Royal Red Shrimp. The flavor was outstanding and perfectly cooked. It came with a choice of 3 sides so we ordered: a house salad that had the most amazing dressing on it. (Tasted like a lemon garlic vinagrette.); tostones with an amazing dipping sauce; and yellow rice.The whole meal was a tasty experience. Ordered Coffee Americana and had the Mini Quesitos for dessert. The coffee was def some of the best I ever had at a restaurant. Both the Coffee and Quesitos were full of flavor and top notch. Def highly recommend if you are in the Orlando area. Would drive a piece to eat here for sure. Look forward to visiting again when in area. Simply amazing! read more

Authentic Caribbean food. We ordered churrasco for dinner and were transported to the time we went to Puerto Rico for an extended period of time. When you come in you will order and pay for your food. They provide you a number and your food will be brought to the table. The portions are generous. The churrasco comes with three sides and a garden salad. You will not leave hungry. They have nice size tables in and outdoors. We enjoyed the lovely lit patio. It's spacious and they also have space heaters for cold nights. Definitely would recommend the mojitos. read more

Stop, drop everything, and go try Sofritos now! I was dealing with a relentless craving for some Venezuelan or Colombian food and found this place on Yelp. We were in town for a Disney vacation, exhausted, and starving, and this place came through! I had the Churrasco and would recommend it to my Colombian grandmother without fear of being scolded due to an unsatisfying experience. :) That's all you need to know. read more

Came here for lunch with friends on our recent trip to Orlando and it was great! It's the type of place where you order your food, take a number and they bring it to your table. The space is very open and clean and they have a large outdoor area. I had a mojito which was very tasty and strong. For my lunch I had the Cuban sandwich with fries and it was delicious. It was quite a large helping so I couldn't even finish it, but the meat was tender and the bread was different but nice. The fries were great. All the stuff were super friendly and helpful. read more
