Tried 90 Miles on Saturday after having driven by a few times. Two of us split a Cuban sandwich and a Lechon Sandwich, plus an order of the ham croquetas. All was delicious - fresh and hot. I also had a cafe con leche, which was an indulgent treat. Saw a few people getting fruit shakes, which looked tasty. Will have to try one of those on my next visit. Prices are incredibly reasonable and the food is great!

I live down the block and I'm not Cuban. I went in and told them I have no idea what to order - the people there were awesome - spent the time to explain and recommend things on the menu. The food was awesome. I also stopped by in the morning and trie dtheir Cuban coffee, Awesome, and much cheaper than Starbucks. These people seem like reallly nice people and seem to sincerly care about your business.

Being of Cuban descent I am always on the look out for authentic Cuban food that reminds me of growing up. I have finally found that place. Alberto and his restaurant remind me of having dinner with my parents.
While at a neighborhood park I overheard someone talking about this Cuban Cafe that had great Cuban sandwiches. Little did I know that the roja vieja and platanos maduros are just as delicious. Since that day, I have treated friends and family to my new discovery and everyone has shared in my delight... mom included. She may be upset with Alberto and crew because I don't visit her as much.
I love you mom, but 90 Miles Cuban Cafe is just minutes away.
Other places tend to be a trendy Cuban-fusion. 90 Miles is what Cuban food is supposed to taste like.

I tried this place on three separate occasions (dinner, lunch & breakfast). The empanadas were made to perfection, the ropa vieja was delicious, tostones reminded me of being in Miami, cafe con leche was so smooth and delicious. My food was always the right temperature (hot). Very friendly staff. This place is very small and gets crowded, but its worth the wait. They also have seating outside during good weather.
