My daughter recommended this restaurant (my mom was from Cuba) so I thought I’d give it a try. We ordered the Yuca appetizer (best I’ve ever had) and Cuban sandwiches (media noches), sweet plantains, and kids meals. We also had the flan and churros. The Cuban sandwiches were awesome. They are massive, so we took home leftovers. The flan is more of the cream cheese style (it was good) and the churros were hot with chocolate sauce for dipping. The atmosphere is fun, complete with a Hemmingway picture on the wall. The TVs play videos of Cuba. We loved it all. Our server Jessica was lovely. She was as excited for our order as we were. It was a real Cuban vibe and I was there for it. We will be back.

Heard about this restaurant and decided to try it with two friends. We did not get a reservation for a 5:00pm meal, so we sat at the bar. Definitely recommend getting a reservation. The food was delicious– I’d always heard about the Cuban sandwich, it did not disappoint! One friend had a vegetarian meal which she said was excellent.

Very friendly and inviting atmosphere. My wife and I stopped in for the first time to try the lunch menu and we were not disappointed. The Cuban sandwich was delicious, full of flavor and presented with attention to detail. Already excited to come back and try a different dish, as the rice and beans sounded good.

Excellent Cuban food, great service. We had the guacamole with pork belly and tostones, a Cuban sandwich, pan con lechón, and ropa vieja. Everything was fantastic. The pork was tender but not too dry. The guacamole appetizer was excellent although I would have liked more tostones with it (they gave us only two for a heaping pile of guacamole). The restaurant is clean with a fun atmosphere but not too loud. We were there on Valentine’s Day with our ten-month-old son, and they were very accommodating with a high chair, and we saw other families with kids dining comfortably as well. The decorations were fun and festive and service was fantastic even though our server said they were busier than usual with the holiday. Overall a very good experience and outstanding Cuban food.

✨ 5-Star Experience!
I recently visited this restaurant with friends to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and we had an amazing time. The atmosphere was warm and vibrant, and the Cuban food, drinks, desserts and coffee were all absolutely delicious.
A special shout-out to Yessica, who provided exceptional customer service. She was friendly, attentive, and made our experience even better.
The prices were also very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes of the dishes we ordered. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, a welcoming vibes, and excellent service. We will definitely be returning!

I don’t usually give 5-star reviews unless a restaurant truly checks all the boxes: great food, excellent service, and a pleasant atmosphere. This new spot in Toledo delivers on all three. The decor is inviting, the food is delicious, and the service is warm and attentive. The owners go out of their way to make guests feel welcome.
The only thing missing is a cocktail to go with dinner, but they’re currently in the process of getting their liquor license. Once that’s in place, it’ll be the complete package.
Highly recommend giving this place a try!

I ordered a guava mojito, Cuban sandwich, and tres leches, and everything was absolutely delicious. The portions are generous for the price.
& the owner and servers were incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommend!

This needs to go to the top of your must-eat-list!!
I ordered tacos from the lunch menu (1 ropes veija, 1 roasted pork, which can only be described as over-stuffed — easily a quarter pound of meat in each). I asked for all the toppings on a side dish, which they were happy to do – I’m a bit particular about topping my tacos. The tacos came with rice and black beans (I don’t generally even like rice, but this was so good I ate it all). I topped off my meal with flan (hands down the best I’ve had anywhere, although I ended up taking it home because the meal was just so filling. The flavor and quality of everything was absolute perfection, the wait staff were friendly and attentive, and the decor is stunning. There are no TV screens blaring news or sports – – instead, videos of Cuba, and Cuban music. I wanted to meet the owner (Oscar), who happy to sit at my table for a few minutes and chat about food, Cuba, and more.
I guess my only question is, is there a spare room in the back where I could put a bed and just sleep here between meals?

My wife and I ate here for the first time and loved it! The food was great, always fun to get to experience different cuisines, and our waitress was very helpful and genuinely interested in making sure we were pleased with our meal. The atmosphere is also very nice, really enjoyed the screens playing scenes from Cuba. Definitely plan on going back and thinking about what dish to try next.

Omg I was down in Toledo for work and happened to find this place on accident and boy oh boy what a great place. Cafecito was amazing everything I ate was delicious. Clean bathroom and great service would highly recommend and will be coming back.
