I decided to stop by the strawberry hut for a Cuban and a milkshake after hearing some positive word of mouth suggestions.The best part of the visit was how kind the staff was. That's about where the good stuff ended.It was peak lunch time and the restaurant was empty. Despite having a drive thru is was completely boarded up. Online ordering is suggested online but there's no place to place an order.The banana shake I had had an alright taste but the banana bits had a weird texture that made me question if it was fresh or not.The 8 inch Cuban I had I asked to be double pressed. I like it that way so that the Cuban is hot all the way through. That being said the Cuban was barely hot and the inside cool. Almost like a cold cut sandwich. There are other places in Lakeland I would point people to for a classic hot Cuban.

If I could give zero stars I would growing up in ybor city, I know what a good Cuban is , this place is not it ! 7 years winning best Cuban ? I'm sorry idk who's judging but this is cafeteria cold cut sandwich on Cuban bread with fake butter ! mojo pork??? None to be found on any of 3 sandwiches we brought all sliced cold cuts processed meat!, pressed cuban? nope still ice cold only bread was warm and greasy and no taste but mayo! Homemade Spanish bean soup??? Not in any house I want to eat in! I think not, Nope Spanish beans with cubed ham and no seasoning! If your looking for a cuban don't stop here Publix subs are 10 times better than this place and you get more for you money!

While searching for a good salad near my hotel strawberry hut came up a few times. The service was subpar. When I walked in I was not greeted. The cashier just looked at me. I said hello to her and she just stared. I said hello again and she finally spoke. I really wanted to leave but I was starving and ready to get to my hotel. I ordered the 4 inch turkey Cuban and a Greek salad. She asked if I wanted my sandwich "all the way" but didn't tell me what that meant. I took a chance and just says yes. Later found out that means: mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato and cheese. There food was ready fast and I headed straight to my room. The sandwich is pressed like a panini and the bread was soft on the inside with a nice crunch on the outside. There was more bread than toppings but still good. The salad was delicious! I wish they would use red onion instead of white but that's just a personal preference. The food is 4 stars but the service is 1star! I won't be back.

Would have given a 5-star rating based on value, food quality, food taste, and friendliness of staff, but the building and dining area were run down (and a/c was broken.) I had a 4" pressed pork Cuban sandwich for $4.00 (there are also larger sizes available, but this was the smallest and the perfect size for me for lunch.) It was warm, tasty, just the right size st an excellent price. I am a lover of strawberry shortcake dessert and when I saw this on the menu, I couldn't resist (especially for $4.00! It was a piece of pound cake topped with strawberries and whipped topping.) Vanilla ice cream was also available as a dessert topping. I chose carryout. Couldn't beat an $8.00 tasty lunch!

Cute lil Cuban restaurant. Foods good. they have great prices. Place and area is so-so but worth a try if your in the mood for a fast and affordable Cuban. I've had their milkshakes, absolutely delicious. Thestrawberry short cake was just right with fresh tasting strawberries with cool whip to top it off, very refreshing haha.

The wife and i are here right now . It looks of the dinning room is kind of dingy and we got sweet and unsweet tea and it looks and tast like water and sugar water. It took a few minutes for the ssandwiches but the food was ok.

10 second Tom must've answered the phone at the Lakeland location to ask me if I could hold. called at 4:20 to place a pick up order and sat on the phone listening to the cashier talk about the door and needing a flat head screwdriver. NEVER PICKED THE PHONE BACK UP! only reason I gave it the second star is because the food is great. customer service could do better

Excellent authentic Tampa Ybor City Cubans, and I know. Three sizes. Fairly priced. Nice addition to Lakeland sandwich scene. Though high-traffic area makes it tricky to get in and out so plan carefully if traveling by car.

Service was good, but the "Cuban sandwiches" did not inpress me an it was misleading. They had items such as a "Philly Cuban" and a "Turkey Cuban" when they should be a Cheesesteak and whichever sandwich; these "Cubans" also had option of lettuce, tomato, etc. A Cuban sandwich has specific ingredients: ham, pork, mayo, mustard, Swiss cheese and pickles; don't recall seeing that specific option. And it's typically hot pressed, which these sandwiches barely were. Advertise it as a sandwich or sub, but not a Cuban, because any Cuban sees that and would be very disappointed. The Spanish bean soup and the shakes were delicious, I'll give them that. The inside was very clean and quiet. The building is pretty old and the A/C was not working, but it still was cool enough with the fans.
