Is there a better place to get Cuban food in Albuquerque? The staff is absolutely phenomenal here and make amazing meals. The Cuban coffee is delicious and the Cubano sandwiches is my favorite in Albuquerque. I started going here a few years back and the level of consistency will keep me going here forever!

Yuuummm!!! Guava Tree came highly recommended by a number of friends so I had to try it! Their sandwiches are hot, fresh, and delicious. I even ordered to go to have it again later that day. Add the yucca fries to your sandwich, although without you still have plenty of food! Great way to support local and get amazing food too!

Awesome little place here! Great service, great people. Food was amazing and made me miss my home in the Caribbean. A guava smoothie option would have been even better. Maybe next time?

My new favorite Abq spot for a delicious, fresh, healthy meal! It was such a lovely lunch with my daughter. The food, the joyful, welcoming owner and the sunny outdoor table on a warm fall day. The arepa pabellón was delicious, yucca fries and a mango/passion fruit drink made fresh was the perfect meal! Even though I stuffed myself I felt good, not heavy...comfort food that makes you feel good is heavenly! I can't wait to go back!

We had breakfast here and it surprisingly GREAT. The arepas were delicious, the Cuban sandwich was on point. The pernil sandwich was tasty and perfectly cooked. The yucca frita and the sauce were great. My mother in law ordered the arepa del perro and the avocado was fresh and tasty. The staff was really nice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I wanted this place to be great. The woman behind the counter seemed irritated that I was even there. She completely ignored me as I stood at the counter and she was prickly when she came over. The chairs are super uncomfortable. The space is cute but the service being unwelcoming made the uncomfortable seating seem even less comfortable. I took my food togo. The chicken in my sandwich was so dry it was like chalk, it lacked salt or any seasoning. My Arepa was over dressed in bland mayonnaise type sauce. The pork was pretty succulent but it tasted low quality and again had no seasoning, the avocados inside were hard and unripe. It was $30 for a small sandwich and one Arepa. I agree with the person who said the quality was not reflected in the price of the food. Soo disappointing 😞

Small place with excellent service (even with being understaffed) and excellent food. Had the arepa machilla and yucca fries - delicious.

Had the Cuban sandwich 🥪. Surprisingly, it was very good. Also got a side order of Tostones. Wife had the shredded beef Arepa. She also enjoyed her plate. My only complaint was that server seemed to be bothered when we walked in being that they were an hour from closing. Oh well, work until it's quiting time.
