    Very good Cuban cafe. We had breakfast, which for this area was pretty affordable and well done. The Cafe con Leche is not to be missed, delicious and mandatory for a trip here!

    A place that I'll be adding to my go-to list ! Cafecito was dope and it's clear that everyone knows it. The place was busy, but not so packed uncomfortably. There was a nice line of folks placing to go orders and they had multiple seats filled with folks dining in. Their staff were nice and quick and very cool and down to earth. I ordered the chimichurri steak with rice, beans, and plátanos maduros. And everything was so good! I really wanna go back and get one of their pressed sandwiches before my trip ends.

    It's been a while since I've been to this location, and I used to come almost every day when I worked a few blocks over. I LOVE the Cafecito con Leche (iced or hot), and the sandwiches are delicious too. I I haven't had their desserts in a while, but they still looked good. Service has always been pleasant and helpful. Would recommend.
