★★★★☆ 4.0 Michelle Brandel · Feb 2026

Mi Apa Latin Cafe was a great find while traveling and such a refreshing change from the usual fast food options on the road. The restaurant has a fast casual vibe that still feels welcoming and comfortable, and the service and attentiveness were excellent from start to finish. My husband went with the classic Cuban pressed sandwich and really enjoyed it. I ordered fried yuca and a shredded pork bowl. The yuca was crispy and satisfying, though the portion of fries was small with only four pieces. The pork was good, but the rice and beans could have used a bit more seasoning for my taste. I asked for hot sauce to add some kick, but it ended up being much hotter than expected and seemed to burn the roof of my mouth. That said, I had already been sampling some very powerful sauces earlier in

As soon as I saw their billboard from I-75, I knew in my heart that the it was going to be a great experience. Let me tell you, this place has saved the day! Our waitress was so nice and the food was amazing. I got the vaca frita and my parents got the pollo y picadillo bowls! This is a must pit stop !!!!

Stopped here on our way home from Fla. I have to say that the place was very clean, the service was amazing, the staff were on point and so polite and attentive. The food was great, had the authentic spanish taste. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich on Cuban bread and my spouse ordered the breakfast perico ,great taste. I recommend it.

I arrived on a Saturday night at 715pm and the food came before 745pm and the food came at the same time which i loved.The prices were appropriate, the cuban sandwich was honestly basic, not enough to make me want to come back but not enough to keep me away. My wife was happy with her beef stew with congri. My kids enjoyed their Key west Cuban, and the ropa vieja with black beans and Yuca. Ariana was excellent with the service the food came quick.
