The servers were excellent today!! We entered with a party of 14 people and they took great care of us, answered all of our questions and really provided great service. Not only did our food come out right away but everyone loved their food and I can say that my plate of rice, beans and roast pork tasted delicious. I was really impressed with the service our family received!

Had a fantastic experience at Cafe Pinar! Ordered two to-go boxes with Black Bean Rice, Veggies Rice, Plantains, and the Pollo Guisado—braised chicken sautéed with potatoes - and oven-roasted chicken. The flavors were outstanding, and all of it came at a reasonable price. Service was quick. Highly recommend for delicious Cuban cuisine!

Stopped for a quick brunch and it did not disappoint! Food was tasty and affordable. I got one of the breakfast combo specials and it was soo fulfilling. Staff were really friendly and food came out quickly. Hope to come try again when back in Orlando area.

I’m so glad I found this place! The food tastes just like home. The food is full of flavor and i can tell it made with fresh ingredients. Every bite reminded me of the traditional Latin meals I grew up with. The prices are super affordable, and the portions are more than enough to share. The staff treated us like family and made sure we had everything we needed. I’ll definitely be coming back — this is my new favorite spot!

Our food was delicious. You select your food cafeteria style. We each had plates of 1 meat, 1 serving of rice, 1 container of beans, and 1 other side for $15 each plate. I had goat and my friend had beef. The 2 plates, 1 tamale, 2 bottled waters, 1 flan, and 1 tres leches cake slice was $50. The goat and flan were both 5 stars. Everything else was both good and very good. The servings were so large we ended up taking half of each plate with us. My friend from Cuba said the food was authentic. The servers were very helpful.

Most wonderful staff. The food tastes homemade. We had yucca that melts in your mouth. Also, a delicious chicken stew with potatoes. And of course chicharon! Highly recommend this family owned place. The best part; they donate leftovers to the local church. Enjoy!
