Palm River Cafe

This place has a delightful atmosphere. It is a family owned and run business. There is plenty room to sit and eat. The food is excellent and the café con leche is (in my opinion) the best in the area, hands down.
All this wonderful, at a price you can’t argue with.
I love the Palm River Café.

Happened on this place by accident actually got lost in my new area. So glad I did! The pizza was pretty good but what really rocked me was the wings were crazy good and the subs are awesome. It is a very laid back only a couple of tables type of place so nothing fancy but great food!

Hidden little cuban café that serves up a good hot lunch that won’t set you back a lot. They have a buffet of items set out and you can get a meat and 2 sides with a drink for under 8 bucks. They also have sandwiches and of course a good Cuban– a half Cuban and a soda is 5 bucks, and this is no small sandwich. I usually opt for one of their meats, like a chicken quarter in some kind of seasoned juices with onions… and of course, a side of black beans and rice.
While there are quite a few small Cuban and latin joints in the area, this place isn’t cash only– so your plastic is welcome.
The place looks really tiny from the outside, but they actually have a decent size dining area for those looking to stay and eat. I think a lot of their business is takeout, though.
They also serve breakfast, which I have never tried.
It is definitely hidden. If you are heading south down 78^th street, it would be the little cut through BEFORE the 7 – 11 gas station. It is located next to a small pharmacy. If you are driving east on Palm River, it would be behind the plaza with the Mexican restaurant before the 7 – 11 gas station.
