5 The tortas were good but the quesadillas were the best thing I ate on my trip
5 They need to update there hours because they were open past noon. The dang tortas are so good. Plus they make fresh on the spot “smoothies” with the freshest of fruits
4 The cubanas were delicious! We especially loved the price. Could have passed on the burritos as they weren't as favorable. Don't do takeaways though because it's so great fresh.
5 Awesome Cuban sandwiches, pulled pork pilled high with Mexican cheese for about a dollar fifty cents. Easy walking distance to Walmart or your cruise ship. Easy to find it will be the stand full of people.
5 Cubanas is a must! Super kind & quick staff! On the corner of la aurora you can't miss it,always full!
5 The best tortas in puerto Vallarta! We have been here a few times and really enjoy the freshness and flavours of all the ingredients in their tortas.
5 Fantastic! Cubanas were so flavorful. Very nice boys working hard. Our Spanish is not good but they helped us out. Will be back!!
5 No surprise there is always people in line here. Amazing quesadillas and the fruit juices are made to order.
