On our third trip to the isla, i finally found paradise! I love to eat and boy, can i eat..a lot. Especially for my size (i'm small but I do work out a lot and box so most people are surprise by how much I can consume in one sitting). We discovered the restaurant on our last 4 days of... more

My girlfriend and I spend a lot of time traveling and this is the best restaurant for food, service, and atmosphere either of us has ever visited. I had a pork sandwich which was fantastic and my girlfriend had the Cuban sandwich which was equally delicious to the pork sandwich I ordered. Along with our sandwiches, we had an order... more

After several amazing lunches at QUBANOS we had them cater a dinner party. INCREDIBLE food. The next day, we ate the leftovers and talked about how much we love the food, especially THE VIVIAN SALAD, THE TOSTON, THE CUBAN, but break my heart with their SPECIAL MOJO SAUCE. more

Just my opinion. Ate at about 10 different places. All very good. But Qubano outstanding. Small and open only for lunch. Recommended it to about 5 couples while I was there; and all had the same experience and opinion as me. Owner/chef and one helper do it all! Closes at 5:00pm. more

Our first time on Isla and I did some serious restaurant research! Qubano's was by far the best and safest restaurant we ate at for lunch. I had the goat cheese stuffed burger with yucca fries. If I could get yucca fries like those in the States I would swear off potatoes! Vivian, the owner Chef gave such great advise,... more

With only three days left of my vacation I stumbled upon Qubano in the early afternoon. We entered the small dining area and were greeted by a lovely woman named Vivian. She happened to be the owner and chef. And what a chef she is I had the best Cuban sandwich of my lifetime that afternoon. It was so delicious... more

Qubano not only has wonderful sandwiches; it also has the best plantains I ever ate and a special dish, rib-sticking dish each Friday. Put it on your "must do" list for lunch on Isla. more

This is an awesome little place with great food that is inexpensive. They have the best Cuban sandwiches and these Hungarian potatoes that are so good, I can't even describe them. The owner is a nice lady and will give you tips about the island and answer any questions you may have. This place is only open for lunch. While... more

I have been going to Isla for a while now and never stopped to eat at Qubano's. This year we did and we couldn't get enough! We went 2 days in a row because the owner was leaving to go out of town this weekend and we didn't want to miss not getting to eat here again after our first... more
