Crema's Take

This espresso-focused spot in American Dream mall specializes in traditional Cuban coffee drinks like cafecito and cortaditos, which appeal to regulars who know what they want—but reviews suggest execution is inconsistent, with some customers praising fresh, quality coffee while others have found bitter shots, stale pastries, and a "gentrified" take on signature drinks that misses the mark. The 3.9 rating reflects a real split: it works fine as a convenient grab-and-go for mall workers, but it's not reliably good enough to seek out if you're serious about either espresso or authentic Cuban coffee culture. Skip it unless you're trapped at American Dream and need caffeine.

I love this place, I work at the mall and this is where I get my coffee every morning, it’s always good/fresh, their sandwiches are also really good specially the pan con bistec. The service is also fenomenal, the workers are really nice and polite.

I’ve been to multiple Cortaditos locations multiple times but this is my least favorite of them all. Typically, I’ve been greeted and have never had any issues with the service but unfortunately this time that wasn’t the case. I asked for a “cortadito a la roca”, which is iced…

Really great spot for a quick coffee fix! Even though there’s no seating, the place is super clean and well-organized. The coffee tastes fresh and rich, and the baristas are always friendly and efficient. Perfect for grabbing a quality cup on the go. Definitely one of the best…
