I’m deeply grateful to my friend for showing me this lovely place! That was my first time trying Cuban cuisine, and let me sincerely tell you that it’s the most delicious food I’ve tried in the US!
The food tastes homemade – simple, yet absolutely flavorful! After trying Cuban food, we started planning all our activities around being back at La Teresita by dinnertime – that’s how delicious the food was.
I ordered Carne con Papas – that’s my personal fave! My husband liked Picadillo, and my son enjoyed Bistec de Palomilla. For dessert, we completely fell for Flan de Queso. It’s finger-licking good!
I’m going to miss their authentic dishes and wonderful hospitality
Hope to visit La Teresita again very soon!

This Cuban-based restaurant is a must-visit if you’re nearby. It offers an authentic food experience with consistently delicious and promptly served dishes. The portions are generous, and the fresh smoothies are amazing. Prices are very reasonable. The service has been great during both of my visits. If you’re looking for an old-school restaurant with a long history and crave Cuban food, don’t hesitate to come here.

We had a late lunch, group get together here and it was great. Authentic Cuban food, great portion sizes and can’t beat the prices! The service was great too – our server was funny and made sure to check if we needed anything, even took several group photos of us (poor lady ). We had the Ropa Viaja, which was delicious – but I really enjoyed the Vaca Frita – the steak was juicy and didn’t even need a steak knife to cut it; add a little lime juice to it and it was out of this world. We tried the garlic shrimp, had yuca and ham croquetas – everything was on-point. Finished everything off with a nice cafe-con-leche . This is a must go-to when you’re in the area

Ordered two Cubano sandwiches to go. Went to the front entrance and ordered in the sit down restaurant. They were gracious and tolerated my poor Spanish. The sandwiches were great and the mango smoothie was amazing. Least expensive meal i have had in my two weeks visiting Florida!

Great place for breakfast and lunch. This cafeteria has all of your favorite Cuban dishes. The mamay shake is amazing. Lunch was served quickly and the food was delicious. Don’t expect anything fancy but expect to have your taste buds to explode with the great flavors.

5 different ways to eat! It can be a little confusing at first, but there are different parts of the restaurant that serve you in a different setting. Read the sign by the entrance. The service was wonderful, very polite and great recommendations. The food to price ratio is great with big servings!

Very reasonable price, they gave free bread appetizer which they used in the Cuban sandwich, and it’s really good. Kids love it!

We ordered food today and the service was terrible. We ordered, utensils and dressing for the salads and got none of the above. When we called to address this they said: well we thought you were home! How lazy and unprofessional! If it’s requested, then send it! Their salad is literally just chopped up lettuce and the steak was so little! We ordered from the hospital so of course we had nothing to eat with. Their response is they’ve been open 50 yrs blah blah blah, but obviously some of the new staff are no good! I’m assuming they’ve been open this long because of the location, certainly not customer service or food! Look at the responses to other reviews, it will tell you everything you need to know about who they are!

Came here on Sunday after the Bucs game and ordered off their daily specials menu. Both of our meals came with our choice of 2 sides. Plenty of food for a good price. The yellow rice was amazing! Plantains were delicious too. Great food and great service, would come again!
