Nobody Pork like Cubans

by DuaneO

The Lechon Asado is awesome. I've taken several first timers there and they all love the Lechon. The Cuban sandwich is great too. Be sure to get an order of sweet fried plantains. The owner is very nice and the staff very friendly.

  • Pros: Excellent Food, Geneorus Portions
  • Cons: None

Best Cubano Sandwich EVER

by rawrs

i drive and hour and a half out of my way to eat here. The best Cuban sandwich i've ever had in my life is from BTC. They are a favorite dish of mine, and i order them whenever theyre on a menu in hopes that I'll finally find a place, outside of Jersey City, NJ or Miami, FL,, that makes them perfect.

FOUND IT!

also.. the toastones, plantains and the Miami sandwich are great. and try the Carnitas next time you can. so good.

  • Pros: the food, the price
  • Cons: not much

Dangerously inconsistent

by mil2ndbest

The food at BTC sure tastes great, but today as I came close to finishing my Picadillo plate, I found a meatball-sized hunk of raw hamburger. And this was after the lunch rush, not right after they opened. If I go back I will stick to the steak from now on - they cook it while you wait.

  • Pros: Black beans & rice, plantains
  • Cons: Anybody got a meat thermometer there?

Great Cuban Food

by rich08533

Food is authentic and good. The place is a dump. I was expeciting table service, but I guess you either shout out your order or go to the counter. A little remodeling, cleaning and hiring a server could really improve this place. I would bring a date if they just made the place a little nicer. oh yeah, I went one night at 8 and they were closing...........said it was slow so they closed. Another time I went on Sunday.............they were closed! I gess it would be smart to call before you drove 40 miles like I did.

Fantastic food and great service

by papie

I have eaten at BTC many times and the quality is second to none. The music and decor make you feel as if you are in Havana and the food is always top notch. I highly reccomend this cafe.

Great Food

by kimcat43

One of the things I like is you can call ahead and order and then when you get there your order is wating for you. The food is so good, I crave it, lol. One thing I can say and anyone who has eaten there can agree, they are not stingy with their portions. You get plenty to eat. I hope they stay 4-ever because this little dive is the BOMB!

  • Pros: great food
  • Cons: small, best to get your food to go

Great Authentic Cuban Food!

by czarinah

I've had similar meals at other restaurants in Houston and Miami and the food at Back To Cuba Cafe was up to par with the good restaurants in those cities. I had the Churrasco plate with beans, rice and plantains. The portions were large and the service was good. I recommend this restaurant and I will be back for more.

  • Pros: Food, Price, Service
  • Cons: Not a lot of tables

Authentic Cuban cuisine is served at the restaurant that offers roasted pork with rice and black beans, to name a few.

The best place in Nashville for proper Cuban

by julebules

This is an order at the counter sort of restaurant with a casual decor. The food was wonderful and the service was very friendly. We played chess in the front window while we waited for the food. I ordered the Churrasco (marrinated skirt steak with fresh veg on top) and highly recommend it, it comes with black beens, rice, and fried plantains. Can't wait to go back with friends!
