“We were looking for something different to try and went to Havana Delights Cafe & Catering in Bartow. I had the cuban with ana beef empanada, son had the midnight and empanada, hubby had the thin top sirloin. I have to say that's the best Cuban I've had. The bread was authentic and very flavorful. The steak was a huge serving with vegetables. Definitely will go back.”

Chicken

Chicken Salteado/"Fajitas"

$12.99

Grilled chicken strips with tomato sauce, onions, peppers and black beans.

“Cute little place in downtown Bartow. The people there are super nice, especially the older lady. Feels less like a restaurant and more like your best friend's mom cooking for you. I got the Chicken Salteado (pictured right), and my partner got the Ropa Veja (pictured left) and a chicken empanada. Super flavorful, the beef and chicken were so tender. I had to substitute vegetables for rice due to medical issues, and it's really nice to have a place treat it like food instead of an afterthought. Also, the cortadito makes life feel a lot better”
