Excelentes lanches e saladas. Sempre um sanduíche prensado do dia, recomendo.

The Best Cuban sandwich in the city with great price. If you hungry but too early for your dinner, go to this place and get the best Cuban sandwich you will ever have and comeback again.

Amazing artisan sandwich store in downtown Chicago. Amongst the many sub chains, it sets itself apart. Long queues at lunch. Recommend "the jerk" sandwich with grilled chicken and Caribbean spices.

Authentic Cubano sandwiches in the heart of downtown Chicago. A hidden gem! Don't forget to add a side of plantains.

Amo este lugar con la fuerza de mil soles, vayan por ese Chivito y un café con leche. Sí, mucha gente pero se te recompensará. Te amo por siempre, Cafecito.

Cortadito is one of my favorite espresso drinks in all Chicagoland. It takes the sugar and milk ur too afraid to add and serves it straight up. I go nuts for anything with their guava jam.
John ShrimpMarço 17, 2018
For a delicious and filling sandwich, Cafecito won’t disappoint. Its Cubano is the best in Chicago but the other selections, such as the Ropa Vieja and Chivito, are just as good.
Alex WitekJulho 22, 2012
Definitely try the Cubano. It's the classic Cuban sandwich, done just right. If you're in town at te Hilton or the Congress Plaza, gove this hip place a try.
Shanitra CooperOutubro 23, 2017
Both times I went I had the cafe con leche. It was the best I’ve had and just the right amount of caffeine without drowned with sugar.
Heather FolsomAgosto 15, 2014
The chivito was def the standout winner of the meal... The flavors just meshed together perfectly. The potato salad was also very good but the churro was stale & Cuban was burnt. I will be back!
Erik RowleyNovembro 1, 2015
The Cubano is one of my favorite sandwiches in the city, be sure to order black beans and white rice on the side.
Autumn ChoiJunho 25, 2019
Just their buttered bread itself is delicious and have not had a bad sandwich from here. Coffee, esp the cafecito is delicious but line is always long and sometimes staff get rude and disorganized

This Cubano is delicious, and the key to its success is the citrus-garlic-marinated, cumin-rubbed lechon asado and the perfect toasting (whoever is operating the plancha needs a raise). -BC Leia mais
Time Out ChicagoOutubro 19, 2011
There’s no confusion over the star of the show here: The Cubano’s crusty bread is toasted just right, its roast pork juicy, its pickles thick, and its mustard and gooey cheese plentiful.
Chrys JohnstonSetembro 29, 2013
Try the Cafe Con Leche. Cuban espresso combined with a teaspoon of sugar and steamed milk. A perfect combination of ingredients for a light, not to sweet cup of coffee.
Jessica StappMarço 1, 2015
The most delicious cortadito (espresso with milk) and lots of vegetarian options. I picked the Jardin. The service is very fast and the food is delicious!!
Cat GaoMaio 10, 2014
This place is wonderful and super inexpensive. Get the Cubano or Lechon sandwiches and a café con leche!

Everything is good here, but my favorite is cafe con leche & black bean soup. If you're near Millennium Park, it's a great place to grab a bite.
April GIAbril 30, 2021
The guava-q pork and their breakfast sandwiches are so good! I’d definitely go again. Others have raved about the Cuban, but I didn’t love it. Pretty dry.

If you want a quick bite, come before noon or after 1pm. The Cubano sandwich is a must try. And if you like coffee, get the cafe con Leche.
Jack ReidMarço 7, 2016
Cuban sandwiches were yummy and good value! Also get the black beans and white rice on the side if you want to turn lunch into dinner.
Casey VickersAgosto 25, 2011
The Pallomia without onions is my go to, I got mushrooms once it was amazing. Also don't pass on the Churo it's fantastic! Owner works the counter as well, he's great, like all the staff. Visit often
Alexia MainFevereiro 2, 2015
The caldo gallego is absolutely a must! The service was great and the atmosphere really makes you feel like you're at a tiny Cuban cafe!
Zuby HJaneiro 15, 2013
The tilapia criolla is one of my favorites paired with the rice and beans side. Sandwiches are freshly made and affordably priced for downtown. Can't go wrong.
Time Out ChicagoDezembro 6, 2011
Try the caldo gallego from our 100 Best list: With white beans, potato, spinach, ham and chorizo, it’s every bit as smoky, porky and satisfying as the restaurant’s Cubano.
Charmaine *Pretty CMB*Março 1, 2013
The pollo chimichurri is the best!!! The chimichurri sauce is what makes this delicious chicken platter amazing; served with black beans & rice with plantain!! ♡♡
Catherine HuffmanAgosto 22, 2015
The cafe con lech iced was perfect on a hot day. Also got the ropa vieja, which was insanely delicious on a hot day. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Great breakfast. Amazing Cuban sandwiches for lunch. The white bean soup is also delicious. And they make a great soy latte.
AJ @StuffThusFarDezembro 23, 2019
Absolutely delicious! Try the Guava-Q and Tilapia Criolla pressed sandwiches.
Samantha HillNovembro 4, 2018
Amazing sandwiches and cafe con leche. Great place for a quick bit to eat or hanging out with friends.

Cafe con leche is amazing! Only $2 for a large too! Bring cash though because they have a $5 minimum charge. It's a great spot for authentic, tasty, strong, inexpensive coffee.

Best Cubano! If you're daring, try the ropa vieja with sweet plantains & black beans. If it's the daily special, get the grilled tilapia - while it lasts! Black beans & rice Cuban style! Riccissimo!

Ah, I haven't had a Cubano sandwich this good in years. A caldito gallego is the perfect side and finish it all off with a café con leche :)

The Chivito sandwich will change your life. Best sandwich I've ever had.

Tilapia sandwich with habanero salsa is a winning combo! And if you need a pick me up, their cafe con leche is really good too!
Sean Maccarone-ReedJulho 11, 2015
Cuban coffee, iced on a hot day. So authentic here. Be prepared for a line, and it moves fast.
Janet RiveraMarço 19, 2018
Feels like home when I get to be downtown and I get to enjoy a Latin cuisine meal
Time Out Chicago KidsJaneiro 10, 2012
The Timba sandwich combines Swiss cheese with sweet guava spread on crispy sub bread—new tastes that should be mild (but tasty) enough for even super-picky types. Leia mais
Dan JAgosto 14, 2012
Chivito--fantastico! This place is as good as anything found at Bayless' Xoco...for less than half the price. I will definitely be back!

Sandwiches and coffee are equally amazing! Try the Caramel Latte you will not be disappointed
Caryn JendroJunho 14, 2013
The tilapia criolla sandwich is incredible. Fresh and flavorful. Also try the steak chimichurri sandwich. Delicious!
Rebecca LunaMaio 18, 2017
I don't see what all the fuss is here. There wasn't much flavor to the pork in the Cubano. If there was any, it was likely overshadowed by all the mustard. Was my first visit and probably my last.
Gabrielle RosasAbril 30, 2013
Cubano...so delicious and one of the best lunch deals in the area.
Roberto GallegosSetembro 30, 2016
Excelentes sandwiches y café a un precio muy accesible. Primerísima opción si se quiere comer algo rápido y barato.
Mariana SanabriaJunho 11, 2010
any of their sandwiches will do but one of my favorites is the guava-q sandwhich. order this with a side of black bean and corn salad and on your way out order a cafe con leche.
