La Tinajita Cafe

As I waited for my car to be serviced and it was getting close to lunchtime, I asked the shop owner if there was a place to eat nearby and she directed me to La Tinajita Cafeteria which is located in a warehouse district. It was the perfect place to grab a delicious and fresh lunch. Although located in a warehouse area, the area is clean and modern. The restaurant is small, clean (very well kept) and has a very cozy feeling to it. I was immediately greeted by a very sweet young lady who took my order and proceeded to to set a table for me. I decided to ask for one of the specials of the day (on a Thursday) and I asked for the baked chicken and sides. My food was served fresh and hot in less than five minutes. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked and the black beans and rice were

Fabulous Cuban cafe.

Great food with friendly service.

Second time eating here, my first time was for an amazing lunch. Today I had breakfast for the first time here and it was equally amazing! The fried eggs were perfectly cooked, slightly runny. French fries were fresh, crispy and hot. The ham was delicious and it was a generous portion and the tostada was perfectly made. I asked for orange juice but they did not have but no worries, the passion fruit (maracuya) juice was fresh, delicious and refreshing. Service is fast, had my food in less than 5 minutes and the women who worked here are super polite and sweet. To the owner(s) keep up the great job, don’t get greedy and mess up a great place to eat!

Great staff and great food. Only issue which has happened more than once is seeing a customer arrive after I order and they received their food before mine. I’ve mentioned it to the staff and they blame the kitchen. As much of how convenient they are located to my office, I’m going to have to pass on going back for a while. Time is money.
