El Cubano To Go

WOW, just wow! Ya know the very rare occasions that your mind unexpectedly transports you back to the past? My eyes welled up with tears after my first bite. I was instantly taken back to the cuban sandwiches I ate growing up in south Florida. I devoured, yet savored, every bite of the first half of my sandwich. I ordered the pan con lechon. I tore into the sandwich while in my car in the parking lot out back. The fresh ingredients, flavors, the ratios, the BREAD, the press - everything was perfect! It was so good that I even climbed the parking lot stairs again to say just how much their sandwich affected me; I truly cried. The two employees were super nice and even let me purchase a loaf of the cuban bread to hold me over a bit longer until I make it back - which will hopefully be soon

Coming from Florida, we were so used to getting pressed Cubans pretty easily, and to be able to find a place, I loved it!! The pork on the classic cubano was not dry at all. I loved coming in here with there being a small yet warm and welcoming environment. After my first visit today, I will definitely be back to get some more items on the menu. Definitely one to give a try if you haven't

Came to grab a quick sandwich (torta!) while in Seattle. My husband lived in the Tampa Bay area for a long time. This is the only place he’s been able to find in Washington that makes as good a Sandwich as any of the Tampa Bay area ones. With friendly service, clean kitchen and welcoming music, grab your Cuban sandwich to go and head out to the lakes or beaches to enjoy a wonderful picnic. I got the Cuban Classic, and he got the Pan con Bistec. 🥩 There’s a small bar stool area, but the place is not intended for eating in. We were lucky there was nobody else so we ate the tortas while they were nice and hot, straight from the grill.

Been here three times and had classic Cubano, pan con lechon and pan con bistec. As a meat/beef lover my favorite is pan con bistec! The meat portion was all good in all my sandwiches, especially consider the price. Porks are tender and juicy, like a light version of pulled pork. Each sandwich was fully loaded so you got meat and bread in every bite. Texture of bread was good too, it has a thin layer of crunchy crust from the hot press, but also remain certain level of fluffiness and chewiness. I like how every sandwich has its own sticker. The lady is super friendly as well. It’s our recent go to sandwich place.

Que rico! My husband and I stopped in while we were waiting for a tire replacement, and El Cubano was the right move. The veggie torta was tasty, especially the bread and aoili. The maduros are incredible! Staff are so friendly and the location is very small but super cute! Highly recommend! ✌️😎♥️🇨🇺
