What a boon to the Lorain county food scene!! The owner is 110% personality and fire. Her restaurant is new and stylish with a lively atmosphere. The food. The pastelillos: beef, chicken, pork were excellent. Packed with meat and seasoned up so you could enjoy them plain or dress them up in a sweet and spicy island sauce. The rice and Mac salad were plentiful alongside our smoked pork ribs. We devoured the dinner and got a second round of pastelillos. I failed in the ok tire taking category because I was too hungry, my apologies... I will do better. For the time being, she indicated they will be doing 1 entree a day Wednesday through Sunday. Call ahead to see what she has! It's going to be good, but I'd hate for you to arrive looking for a robust menu, only to find the simplicity of a single offering :)The island coffee rounded out our lunch and prepared us to conquer the world. Cafe au leche. What a treat!!! I'm only the 2nd Yelp review? That boggles my mind, as I now consider this a must stop.

Just had the rice and ribs again recently (we ordered 3 servings at a time, this food is GOOD) and was impressed. Again. Looking forward to the breakfast items and the jerk chicken is always, always a win.

Great new ethnic food in Sheffield Lake! Located in the Shoreway Center (where Apples grocery store is). This used to be the location of Driftwood Cafe. It is not a Caribbean Soul food restaurant. Everything is made fresh and is delicious! It is a great spot to choose for lunch or dinner.

Excellent addition to this strip mall. Tried the pasteles - delicious!!! Only criticism of the pasteles was they were way too small, had to have 4 to make one regular pastel. If she increases the size, I will definitely purchase a few more dozens. The mixed rice and beans was delicious.

Absolute magic! Serendipitously ended up here due to a flat tire on a bike ride. Cafe con leche was tremendous. Pastelitos out of this world. LOVE CARIBE!!!

Just arrived in town. Looking for a place to get authentic Puerto Rican food. I have patronized Caribe Soul Cafe on 3 occasions. The food is excellent. Tastes like the food my mom used to make in P.R. Can't wait to go back.

I'm about to be addicted to the Cuban coffee here. Will be back for the Brazilian and Puerto Rican coffee ASAP.
