Sandwiches El Cubano

Im not going to lie, the cuban sandwich was really good. The pork was well marinated, and the ham and cheese ratio was perfect. Comes straight off the panini press. Cash only place. I also got a chorizo taco just to try it, I loaded it with the spicy red sauce they have and it was great. I will definitely be returning for another cuban!

I wasn’t impressed. Tried the Cuban sandwich for lunch today. Felt the pork was dry and lacking flavor. And the value wasn’t there, at $ 8 for the sandwich.
I won’t be back.

Fantastico comida same as Mexico City.

I was skeptical, being that, as a Cuban American, any attempt to combine two Spanish-​speaking cuisines into one truck will turn me off. Sandwich is legit, though. Right ingredients. Even goes the extra mile and adds pulled pork rather than sliced lunch meat. Owner’s name is Osmany. That’s a Cuban man’s name. Seven bucks. Can’t be beat. Proceed with safety, young Cuban.

I’m as picky as they come and this was the best sandwich (Cuban) that I had from a food truck! Delish!

We were driving to NY one weekend and saw all of these food trucks in front of Ikea sadly on our way back at about midnight they were all gone. So the next weekend we went back and there they were. After observation we noticed all these trucks pretty much served the same food, Mexican, tacos, burritos, tostadas and low and behold a Cuban sandwich. Now briefly I will tell you that we tried to make Cuban sandwich’s at home a few weeks before but because of me, yes I admit it was my fault, they didn’t come out right. This was due to me buying the wrong bread the wrong the wrong ham and forgetting the pork. Needless to say it was an Epic fail.
So when we saw this truck that had the Cuban sandwich’s just the way they are suppose to be made we were thrilled.
These Cuban’s were to die for. The perfect balance of meat and bread with pickles and mustard, it was like a orgasm in your mouth… can I say that? Anyways, This is definitely a keeper we will be going back again. They are losing a star because they only accept cash. I feel like this day in age and with all of the option to accept debit cards there is no reason I had to hunt down an ATM. If they fix this I will all be more then happy to give them a raving 5 stars :-)

After trying to find the grilled cheese truck in new haven and coming up empty handed. Me and my sister remembered seeing all these Mexican food trucks near ikea and decided to give one of them a try. We looked at all the trucks and decided to go with this one. I got a torta with pork. It was delicious marinated pork topped with avocados and lettuce. It was delicious some of the best Mexican foodmive had in Connecticut. My sister got a quesadilla which she enjoyed too. It wasn’t too expensive either. If lure in the area I definitely recommend this food truck!

I’ve had some but not many but this was probably the best Cuban sandwich I’ve had. Not too greasy but not too dry. Great flavor and makes me want to go back for more.

Who hasnt see the Flag Man, selling flags from an old U-​Haul on Long Warf, as they whiz by on I95 in New Haven. Well forget the flags, because there are a plethora of amazing Mexican and Puerto Rican food trucks that are probably some of the best examples of their cuisine you will find in the state. There is now a new truck on the scene, Sandwiches El Cubano. I saw it a few weeks ago and made it my business to go check it out. As soon as I pulled up and saw the mural on the truck of bikini clad women in front of a Cuban flag, I knew this was gonna be good. Not being an expert on Cuban food, I played it safe and took the owners suggestion to get the «Miami Style» cuban sandwich. Amazing. A foot long hot grilled sandwich of roast pork, ham, swiss cheese, pickles, mayonnaise, and mustard. Did I mention it was only $ 6.50? My Cuban friend Yve says that the bread isnt real authentic cuban bread but its ok because you just cant get it in New Haven. Ill have to trust her on this, I dont know what kind of bread it was, nor do I care because it was FANTASTIC. Go there, if you can resist the call of the taco or burrito (and I never can) go eat a fantastic cuban sandwich. You will be very happy you did.
