Finally came by here for breakfast today and it did not disappoint. I ordered the Ropa Vieja Omelette and the Dulce De Leche coffee. My girlfriend ordered the toast, potato balls and a white chocolate mocha. The place was very homey and I liked the set up. Clean and the food was delicious. The omelette was great and very unique with its blend of beef. The coffee was superb too (Cubans can really make a solid coffee). I enjoyed this place quite a bit and look forward to some future meals here! read more

Vacaville Breakfast - My hubby is so happy with his meat pie. - Cuban Near Me - Vacaville, California

The cashier maybe owner too wasn't so pleased to see us when we walked in because we interrupted her chat with her customer. She got our order and sat us down afterwards. I had forgotten to order shakes so I ordered and again she seemed not happy about that. Kept looking at us on table while making the smoothies. Our food was served. Flavor wise, it was pretty good. I would it again. The only thing is, portion is way small and I would say it is not worth spending the money for a small portion. Once she heard our kids talked in Spanish, she smiled at them and then started talking to them in Spanish. I would not go back, even though the food was good, not worth the money for a really small portion. read more

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS -- no need to say more except that Cuba Cafe provides authentic Cuban food - Yum! The service was friendly and timely. The Cafe is clean with lots of light this will be a go to place when I need the taste of Cuba. read more

I loooove this place. Had Cuban food for the first time many years ago while I was in Miami.... this place is even better! Great food, family owned, reasonable prices. Have been here many times and will continue going. read more

Clean, aesthetically appealing. Not busy 1 other person waiting on a Saturday around 2pm space enough to sit and dine in or outside. I ordered for family the chicken sandwich, Cuban sandwich, meat pies and apple turnovers waited about 25 min for food. The sandwich comes with choice of shoestring fries, black beans and 3rd option. Chicken sandwich was filling only ate half, meat pies are very flaky as a turnover, (meat) not over stuffed but inside and you can taste seasoned ground meat. Cuban sandwich looks as expected family seem to enjoy. The menu is fair with the options of more breakfast and lunch items so brunch. Closing at 4pm and closed on Mondays, the location is next to a supermarket so parking not an issue. Cleary Vacaville has many hidden foods spots you just happen on. read more

Was pretty excited to try this for lunch as I never had Cuban food before. I was going to either get the steak sandwich or the Cuban sandwich. Went with the steak because I saw that it came with a Cuban garlic sauce and the Cuban sandwich had a mustard sauce to it and I don't like mustard. I also ordered the Cuban coffee. Verdict: Steak was tough and I couldn't taste the garlic sauce. The Cuban bread that it was in was delicious tho. Probably wouldn't order it again. Coffee was good and kept me alive during my work training. :) On the other hand, my coworker got the chicken plate and loved it. Fun fact: this was first opened with just the yogurt shop. That's why they have froyo also :) read more

Absolutely the best breakfast in the area! Went there years ago and my mom just reminded me that we need to go back. She loved the food because she never says that with new places. Get there if you can. The Cuban sandwich is good but the French toast is amazing. read more

Went here after church for a little lunch bite. We got the kids croquettes, meat pies and potato balls. Hubby and I shared the ropa vieja platter and cafe con leche. Everything we ordered was so good. The sauce that came with the croquettes and balls was flavorful. Ropa vieja was seasoned really well and came with yummy plantains and rice. So glad there is a place nearby we can go to for some Cuban cuisine. We highly recommend this place. Not a big place for big crowds, but definitely a place worth trying. read more

This place is under new ownership and the food has not been the same since. We have it a few tries since the original owners left and just can't justify coming back. We've heard that that the cook is still the same but they've definitely changed up how they make their food. Prefer the food under the previous owners unfortunately. read more

This was my first time having Cuban food and everything was AMAZING! I ordered a Pollo Con Frijoles Y Arroz plate, the chicken was marinated and cooked to perfection!

The menu offerings were just... okay. Was super excited to try this place but left hungry and slightly disappointed once I got home. Being Puerto Rican I guess I had high expectations for flavor and seasoning but it wasn't there and a pretty hefty bill for what I ordered. Hopefully I'll make another trip across town and maybe try it again but for now I'll save my coins read more

This place is a MUST for flavorful, authentic Cuban food!!! Only Cuban food in the area. A little pricey but it's absolutely good

Food was absolutely delicious! Authentic and clean. Felt very comfortable there and the price was fair. Can't wait to go back and try everything on the menu. I'm definitely gonna be a regular. read more

I have been obsessed with Cuban food recently and I'm so glad I found this hidden gem in this quiet town. This Cuban cafe is a combined shop with a yogurt shop so the inside is small but colorful. The Cuban sandwich and the steak sandwich was delicious. The sandwiches come with a side of fries or black beans. Both were fresh and good. Fries were crispy and perfect size. The black beans were light and flavorful. The sandwiches were packed with flavor but a little bit oily. Expect to get your hands dirty. We ordered a guava pastry for dessert and it was filled with sweet guava jam. The pastry was fluffy and flaky. It would've been so much better if it was slightly warmed or toasted. Highly suggest checking out their spot if you are in town. I definitely want to come back here because it definitely satisfied my craving. I would want to try their plates. Great food at a great price! read more

This place surprised me because I would never come here except seeing how highly rated this was in yelp. First impressions: the storefront definitely has that hole-in-the-wall vibe. It's located in a smaller, older plaza, next to a not-familiar-sounding grocery store. It's also disguised as a self-serve fro-yo store that serves Cuban coffee and food. Once inside, seating is very limited. There's only one table that seats four and the rest are two-seaters, mostly against the wall, window. I was still skeptical about choosing this as our brunch place, but I wanted to see what the 4.5 stars were all about. Lol Well I'm here to tell you that this hole in the wall place is worth every star. I noticed how clean the place was, and you can see how much pride the staff/family put into this spot. The sandwiches were simple but well made (the difference is in their HOMEMADE Cuban bread!!), clean and fresh tasting. Cuban coffee was excellent as well. I've never had an experience like it, but the service and food and cleanliness makes this cafe one of those I-hope-no-one-finds-out-about-this-place-so-I-can-keep-coming-here without a huge wait/line. Which will definitely happen, as the seating is so limited (which is the ONLY reason i didn't give this place 5 stars). If you're looking for a non-pretentious brunch place that isn't your standard greasy diner food, check this place out!! You'll be pleasantly surprised and you'll leave satisfied but not sluggish. read more

As a SoCal native, I was super-excited when I saw this Porto's lookalike pop up on my Yelp radar! Tucked away ina residential part of Vacaville, Cuba Cafe is a very unassuming little restaurant that is linked to a froyo store for some reason. They offer pretty much everything that Porto's does, so I got all my favorites: - Medianoche (midnight) sandwich - They rly loaded this sandwich up with roast beef and ham! But my favorite part was definitely the bread - so buttery and soft. Unfortunately the sandwich as a whole was a little dry, which made it hard to take more than a few bites without stopping for a water break. This comes with fries, sweet potato fries, or black beans. Obviously I chose the sweet potato fries, which were devoured without a second thought! - Papas rellenas (potato balls) - So good. Just like Porto's! They even give you some green sauce, which is lovely. I wish they would give you a larger cup of it! Couldn't even dip the rellenas in there :( - Guava-cheese roll - Pretty tasty. The flavor is reminiscent of Porto's but with a little more dough then I'd like. Kinda pricy at $1.75, but they are larger then the ones down south so I guess that's fair! Service was ok. The lady was talking on her phone the entire time was there, even when she was bringing out my food. Parking is super-easy, since the restaurant is located in a strip mall next to Food Fair. All in all, this place was pretty good for North Bay standards. Can't quite measure up to Porto's, but if I ever get a craving, I may find myself here again! read more

Best coffee I've had in months, killer Cubano sandwich. Friendly service. Great value.

I at first was skeptical when I first pulled into the parking lot. It's very small hole store front in a bit so active shopping center. Instantly greeted with friendly service and a home style feel. The food was awesome I would definitely return here. The flavors were off the hook it was definitely some mother cooking. Go try it out read more

Not a terrible bunch to choose from but I am in love with their chicken rice and black beans plate. The chicken has a lime flavor to it that perfectly compliment. The chicken is thinly sliced and I think they use butter as well, when mixed with the rice it's pure heaven. I love it so much that I refuse to order anything else on their menu. read more

We stopped here on the way back from San Francisco for an early lunch. I ordered the ropa vieja plate which came with rice and plantains. While I appreciate being able to enjoy Cuban food here in California it lacked the flavor I've experienced before in South Florida. Perhaps it's an unfair comparison but couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed. However service was fine and very welcoming. read more

Been craving some Cuban food ever since we left Orlando, FL. I have heard great things from family & friends about Cuba Cafe, so I thought it was about time to try it out!

It paired perfectly with the beans & rice. I am definitely coming back for more! read more

I walk in and the lady helping us VERY loud haha. Then I see this sign on the left that reads, "we're not yelling, we're Cuban." THAT IS HILARIOUS! She's great. Anyway, theres not a lot of Cuban restaurants to my knowledge where I live, so my girlfriend drove us to Vacaville to this place. Being that its rather far, we decided to order a shit ton of food. The meat pie is awesome. Flaky on the outside, moist and juicy at the core--a definite go-to for an appetizer. Checking in on yelp scored us the Papas Rellenas. Those were great too and so big! The inside was very delicate, and whatever that sauce is, its so good. I used it on the rest of my dishes. My girlfriend and I strategically ordered two sandwiches and switched halves. We had the cuban sandwich and the ropa vieja sandwich, both with sweet potato friends. Both were straight fire. I know that cuban sandwiches are rather simple, but these were to die for. Last is the Ropa Vieja sandwich. If you come here for the first time and you don't know what to get, get this one. You can't go wrong. It was absolutely stunning. The rice, the plantains, the meat, its all very tasty. The woman at the counter was very thrilled to see us order so much, and rather impressed that we didn't pack anything to-go. We at the whole thing, damn near trying the entire menu in one sitting. If you need a damn good Cuban restaurant suggestion, here is your suggestion. read more

This was my first experience trying Cuban food and I was impressed. The location is a bit strange and when you first walk in it doesn't seem like a place to eat since it also doubles as a frozen yogurt shop. I got the Cuban Club Sandwich and the homemade black beans. It was around $15 with the tip for the drink and the sandwich. To me that's a little pricey for a cafe meal. The food came out quickly. My favorite part of the meal was the homemade bread for the sandwich. It was flakey and buttery. The black beans were also really good, they had a ton of flavor and tasted nothing like the black beans I'm use to eating. In conclusion, a good place for a quick lunch. I'll be back. read more

I have not had the food yet but there's a 50% difference between what is listed on yelp and the menu price. I showed the lady the pricing on yelp and she says that's wrong and then she showme the menu. I think it's wrong! Instead of $8 for the Cuban sandwich it's $12.50 And overall was underwhelmed by the sandwiches...fries ok but just warm, not hot. Would not recommend and would not go back (even if the prices were as posted on yelp)! read more

This is a great little cafe that seems to be hidden away over here. The cafe con leche is a great huge cup of coffee, I love to get this on the weekends with their real cubano sandwich. The cubano is legit here, real cuban bread, two types of ham just the way it should be. Whatever else you try get the beans, they have an amazing rich flavor. They also have full service frozen yogurt station. The whole place is cute and super clean. read more
