Sunrise Cuban Market & Cafe

The pulled pork very fresh hot fresh, no fat and all the onions you want. The best Cuban bread always hot out of oven, we always buy to take home to Miami. Last the prices are not that bad very compatible.

We had the Cuban sandwiches and cortadito. Everything was super hot n fresh, tasty, and the vibes were welcoming n warm. The owner stopped at our table to see how everything was and we chatted for a few moments. She was very friendly and you can see how much she cares and loves it here. 10/10 will be back.

Delicious food reasonable prices. Local authentic non-touresti atmosphere. Staff is very pleasant and accommodating to us even though we don't speak Spanish. I had the midnight sandwich, and my husband had Cuban both were superior to those we got in little Havana. We also had 2 different kinds of fried plantains, yum and yum! Lots of local workers were coming there to get their lunches. I can see why. We would definitely go there again

Not much of a visible sign for this hidden gem. We stopped for gas across the street at the Chevron station and spied Sunrise Cuban Market & Cafe. We ordered an empanada and a media noche sandwich. The sandwich was the star of the show. The pork was tender and in nice big chunks. The Swiss cheese was strong and not some wimpy baby Swiss or fake American cheese Swiss. Ham was a nice, thick slice. Sweet egg bread was delish. I’ve bookmarked the spot for our next trip to the Keys. Next time, we will have to try the dinners.

3/10/25—-A Post-CrossFit Feast: When Hunger Meets Cuban Comfort Food After surviving a brutal CrossFit workout on an empty stomach—not eating for 19 hours—I was beyond hungry. Some people do intermittent fasting; I call it accidental survival mode. But hey, I like to work out on an empty stomach, so no regrets... until the hunger hit like a freight train. Thankfully, this Cuban cafe was just a one-minute drive from the gym. Perfect. No need for long decision-making—just food, now. First Impressions: Buffet Style & Spacious Seating As soon as we walked in, I noticed a buffet-style setup with hot, ready-to-go meals lined up. A tempting sight for someone who just burned more calories than they had in reserve. The place was spacious, so we picked a table further back to settle in. It was getting close to 11 AM, but my stomach didn’t care—it was breakfast time for me. The Order: Enough Food for a Small Army I went for: Scrambled eggs with French fries (brought most of them home) Croquetas (because Cuban cafe croquetas) Tostadas (because why stop at just one carb?) Coffee (of course) Orange juice (which I saved for later like a true planner) My husband? He got an omelet, then immediately complained it was too much food—as he always does. So, we finally made a pact: from now on, we order one meal to share. (We’ll see how long that lasts.) I also ordered boiled yuca con rabo encendido (oxtail stew) to-go—because the wise traveler knows, always think ahead. The Atmosphere: A Gathering Spot for Hungry Workers As we ate, we noticed construction workers filing in, one after another, filling up the place. That’s always a good sign—because if locals, especially hardworking laborers, eat here, the food is legit. Service: Friendly & Full of Stories Then there was Mari—so friendly, so talkative. She told me my name is very popular in Cuba, which made me feel honorary Cuban for the day. Final Thoughts: Worth the Trip? Everything was delicious, the coffee was strong, and the service was warm and welcoming. Plenty of parking, great home-cooked flavors, and a good spot to fuel up. Would I go back? Absolutely. Will I drive 30 minutes to get here while hosting guests? Highly doubtful. But if you’re in the area and craving authentic Cuban food, this is the place. Wise Words to End On: "A good meal after hard work isn’t just food—it’s fuel for the soul."

Very good place to eat, delicious food. The waitress who attended us was so kind and attentive. We had a Cuban pork sandwich, and it was really delicious.

They are quick and efficient and the staff handles the overflow and load. Food is very good and they do take out orders and pickups all the time. They have a dining area inside and ultimately it’s a market style place, but could use a little more attention and refreshing of the environment.

This place is great! We love Cuban food and we were staying nearby - we had to check it out. On our first visit, I had Picadillo with yellow rice and black beans. Everything was tasty with huge portions. My wife had the roast pork with yellow rice and black beans. Again, huge portions and very tasty. We enjoyed everything so much we returned for another visit a few days later. Considering the large portions, the prices are very reasonable. Everyone working there is friendly and helpful too. We will definitely return for another visit soon.
