Matanzas Cuban Cafe

From the moment we walked in, we were hit with aromas del caribe. We felt the warmth of not just the small yet cozy café, but also the warmth of the owner who was friendly & welcoming. There are no tables, just a counter with 5 or 6 stools. Everything came out hot & to order. We ordered the croquetas, the Cuban sandwich (el Cubano), the ropa vieja y maduros. And although the seasoning was perfect, we just had to try the salsa roja de YoDiaz! to add a little kick!!! We enjoyed every bite of the flavorful dishes we shared. We will definitely be back & recommend this gem in lower Westchester!!!

Omg, best cuban sandwiches we have tasted. The croquetas were perfectly crunchy and tasty, the house sauce was delicious. Never leave empty handed, we order extras for dinner. We actually travel an hour and a half to eat here. SO WORTH IT!

1 of the best cuban sandwiches I've eaten hands down! And they're Oxtail was fall of the bone melt in your mouth delish! A Must If in Hartsdale NY!

A hidden gem for Cuban delights! The Cuban is authentic with delicious hand pulled roast pork. The vegetarian sandwich was made with plantains, bean and the most amazing caramelized onions. Both pressed to perfection. Annarella was sweet and offered suggestions and a taste of a mango shake. Local, women owned, Cuban. Small dine in space was very adequate where you can watch the action. Parking across the street. Must try even if you are a vegetarian. Beans are meatless. Support local businesses!

We decided to give Matanzas Cuban Cafe a try and we scored BIG! The establishment is small but big on authenticity, taste and flavor! The portions are perfect and the food travelled well, considering that we with it. Everything was still warm and delicious! The service was prompt and courteous, and the prices were just right.
