Pipo's The Original Cuban Cafe

Wonderful Homemade Cuban Food!Delicious, fresh food served cafeteria style. Staff members are friendly and helpful and there is a fair amount of seating f inside the restaurant. The restaurant is decorated with lots of trophies, framed certificates and framed photos. Please know in advance that the portions are large. The delicious Cuban Sandwich is 12 inches long. It's easily enough for two meals. The in-house roasted pork is their specialty. It's delicious as an entree or on a sandwich. I highly recommend this restaurant when you are craving Cuban food.

Wow! This Cuban Café felt like I stepped into little Cuba. The service was immaculate, and I tried the tamale which was so soft and comforting. It had the roasted pork inside fire! My boyfriend ordered the Ropa Vieja with rice and three fried eggs. He's a happy man.Definitely want to come back for the weekend. They offer stewed oxtail!! Definitely coming back to try !

Pipo's is not just a sandwich shop. They offer a full menu of authentic Cuban cuisine. They also have plenty of indoor seating at large heavy tables with comfy chairs. They assemble your order in full view which gives the customer a chance to see all the mouth watering options (next visit I'll have to try the oxtail or ribs). Despite being surrounded by businesses with hurricane damage the restaurant was clean and the workers are pleasant. I ordered the classic Pipo's Cuban Sandwich ($13.86 with tax) and was not disappointed. In my opinion Pipo's Cuban Sandwich is the third best I've ever eaten, but since #1 & #2 are in Tampa and Pipo's is 2 miles away they will continue to get my custom when I need a Cuban fix.

Outstanding food, best Cuban food in the area without a doubt! Very friendly staff. Will be returning soon.

Had take out and it was really excellent. Pulled pork, yellow rice and black beans. My only problem was in making this review. They attempt to dictate the length, which sucks.

Always fresh cooked and delicious breakfast sandwiches. Great Cuban and rice. Love the staff too.

We had such a great experience at this family owned place. The ladies were so wonderful despite huge line. And the food was very good. I love they offer vegan options, you can either go with the 3 side vegetarian meal and select items that are vegan or go with their vegan wrap. I went with the wrap and it was very good but very filling, I was able to eat only half of it. Note that the sauce it comes with is NOT VEGAN.I also got the yucca with mojo sauce. My husband had the ropa vieja with white rice and black beans. He also tried the fried sides stuffed potato. He loved everything he had. I had a taste of his black beans and they were delicious! They also brought a freshly toasted cuban bread to the table. Overall it was a very nice experience and we'd love to come back.

Went out looking for Cuban food while in Florida. Found a little slab of heaven called Pipos. The family running it was amazing and wonderful. The food though. Had my family silent for the first time all the trip. Even better they knew what gluten was and had it all marked on the menu making it easy and comfortable for my wife. We went exploring while in Orlando and ended up in the most amazing dinner in St Petersburg. Don't let this one escape eat here.

Had the Cuban sandwich and it was delicious. I've had a lot of Cubans over the years and this one is legit. Super moist pork and with generous portions. Had a side of plantains too which hit the spot. Overall, my sandwich was large and my side of plantain were generous. Great quality and great price. Finally a place with reasonable prices and good food. Can't wait to come back. Plus staff were super nice.

Our Cali family of 7 came in and may I say how their wholesome food made our stomachs, and hearts so happy, nothing compares to this authentic Cuban restaurant! a definite must try spot if your your in the area of St. Petersburg. Before I conclude this review I want to take the time to shout out to Miguel he is an awesome, friendly and helpful server!
