Never having had Cuban food before today, this was an amazing experience. We had the Cuban sandwich and carne con papas (sp) (beef and potatoes) this quaint little shop did it right. I look forward to being able to get the chance at trying more of the menu on a future trip to Downtown Lansing.
😋 🥑🥗🍮☕Absolutely loved their food! I highly recommend the Platanos Fritos (fried bananas) 🍌 with a side of white rice 🍚! Qué Rico! (So delicious) The churros were 💯 perfection!
A perfect example of Cuban food and culture in downtown lansing. The espresso is deep in flavor and strong, the sandwhiches have a crisp yet buttery exterior texture and an exquisite bite, the pork was cooked to a soft and savory delight. Everything I was looking for, and more, thank you. 😁
Wonderful little spot for Cuban food in Downtown Lansing, highly recommended. I have been enjoying their food since they were a food truck in Old Town and I am happy to have them as part of the downtown community. The empanadas are fantastic. All the food is great but the shredded beef is amazing and a real stand out for me any dish with the shredded beef will not disappoint.
Came here for a quick lunch during a conference and it was so good! Quick service (in and out in like 35 mins which is exactly what we needed - but I’m sure you can also take your time and relax!) with super tasty food! I got the traditional Cuban sandwich and will def be back! Awesome price point too.

La Cocina Cubana is one of our favorite restaurants in Lansing! The food is always amazing! The yuca frita, tostones, ropa vieja, and lechon asado are always delicious! Highly recommended!
I really love the food here. The wait staff are all friendly, and it's a perfect place to practice my Spanish. One of my friends is half Cuban, and he agrees that this is real, authentic Cuban food.
First time here didn't disappoint. Great food, Latin music playing, but not too loud, and friendly twin waitresses from Cuba using their best English. I got to practice my best Taco Bell Spanish with them. I got the traditional Cuban sandwich (pork, ham, cheese, pickles, mustard, mayo) and maduros (fried plantains/bananas) with cinnamon. Sooooo good!
Great location, ok parking, beautiful decor inside , very Cuban culture, very clean, delicious food. We got greeted right away and server was very nice woman. We definitely will make this place one of our favorite go to.
I came here to grab a bite after a conference and although the service was slow, the food definitely made up for it.
The plantains were amazing as were the yucca. The ropa vieja was good, but it was my first time, so I have no point of comparison.
If you are looking for authentic Cuban/Caribbean cuisine this is the place. I'm definitely coming back. The food was delicious, it was so fresh and tasty. The waitress Sheila was very attentive and friendly. This restaurant raise my spirits, 20 out of 10!!! Also, the horchata was soooo good
This is a great place to get some authentic Cuban cuisine! It does take a bit to get your food but it's worth the wait as everything is cooked fresh. Their Cuban sandwich is a delicious go to for my family and their seasonal in house juices and refreshments are a treat.
The Moros rice was not authentic was more like a made up recipe. And the maduros were not ripened enough. Other than that excellent the service was a plus the asado de Cerdo was devine. The restaurant overall was very clean 👌 I will come back for sure.
Yummy food, great and friendly service, fun music in the background. Had the Arroz con pollo with fried plantains. Wish I wasn't leaving so soon so I could go back again!
Love to eat here, the food is awesome. I haven't had a bad meal yet. I look forward to trying everything on the menu.
What a pleasant lunch with my son. The Cuban Sandwich was excellent! There was also a complmentary appetizer served when we placed our order. Very good.
Nice little cozy eating spot in downtown Lansing. The food is flavorful and delicious. Portions are nice size. Fast friendly service. Busy during our lunch visit but everything was handled well. We will come back again.
