Besides wonder Cuban Sandwiches, La Tropicana Cafe also serves Cuban dishes such as pork tamales, stuffed potatoes and deviled crab.
From the restaurant:
"Home of the old-fashioned Cuban sandwich since 1963."
No alcohol available. Serving breakfast and lunch Mon–Sat. Closed Sun.
"… just as the old guys finish sipping their café con leches and dunking a little Cuban toast, it fills again with businessfolk, tourists and locals intent on acquiring the Coco Special (that’s a small Cuban sandwich and black beans and rice) or an order of ostrich egg-sized deviled crab. A coffee shop that pulses with Ybor’s original spirit, it also has a drive-through window for when you need your con leche para llevar."
