Santa Barbara Coffee Shop

Bland basic food. I expected a lot more for a Cuban restaurant and had black beans that were terrible.

This is a hidden gem. We accidentally came in for some quick food and coffee and ended up reordering several times. Absolutely delicious, great coffee, stews, meat, beans and rice. Prices too low! Highly recommend!

One of the better breakfast spots I visited in Florida, as far as food and service. Had a Cuban style omelette that had more fillings than other places, and nice big buttered Cuban bread on the side. Service was fast, despite being a very busy Saturday morning. Staff speaks mostly Spanish. Only downside is the atmosphere with how busy it is vs how small. It's crammed into a little strip lot like a convenience store would be. Would definitely return. They are efficient, and the food and coffee is good.

Today I visited a Santa Barbara cafe that left me thoroughly impressed. The star of the menu was undeniably the ox tail dish – a true culinary masterpiece. The meat was tender, succulent, and bursting with rich flavors that transported me straight to the heart of Havana. The cafe's authentic atmosphere, paired with the friendly staff, made the dining experience even more enjoyable. A must-visit for anyone seeking a delightful taste of Cuban cuisine.

What a wonderful restaurant and coffee shop. Exactly what you’d expect. Excellent food and hospitality. The best part is the lovely ladies who run this place. My favorite place for breakfast, coffee, and lunch when I visit Fort Lauderdale.
