The food is so good and staff are nice. The Cuban mix and the Buchi coffee are highly recommended.

Buchi was amazing! I ordered takeout for a large group, I called ahead to ask if it was okay to place a large takeout order and to arrange for it. I had to call back a few times with questions and they were kind every time! Pick up was easy after it was arranged, and everyone enjoyed their sandwiches. Some where hoping they lived closer so they could back for more!

Oh my gosh! Thats the only thing I can think of!! I had the Cuban Pork Bowl my husband had the classic Cuban. He has the cafe con leche and I had the Cuban shot of espresso with steamed milk. The first bite of the pork bowl was an explosion of flavors in my mouth!!! Our server Kim, was amazing and understood the importance of water at high altitude. The food, service and coffee were AMAZING! Highly recommended and will return as soon as we can.

Perfectly crisp and delicious bread with some of the most delicious pork you'll have on a traditional Cuban sandwich! Legit mojito full of tons of fresh mint also made for a fantastic pairing!

Split the La Bodega sandwich which was incredible. Also had the key lime pie which was my fave. And the owner came out and surprised us with tiramisu! Great service and amazing food every time we are here.

Very friendly wait staff and the food was very good. The Cuban Mix Sandwich is their specialty and was excellent. They also have gluten free bread!

Everyone was super friendly and it was quiet and cozy. I got there when it opened and spoke with the owner, Kim, and she gave me some history on the place. I got a bacon egg and cheese but they are known for their cuban sandwiches. Highly recommend coming for lunch!
