Their sandwiches are excellent. They don't seem to use real Cuban bread (hard, but not impossible, to get in Chicago), but the French bread is good enough. The steak sandwiches are great. The…

I've been a big fan of cuban sandwiches for many years. I've tried them all and have been more disappointed then pleasantly surprised. That's until I tried El Cubanito!! This is what a cuban sandwich should...

Fantastic sandwiches, great, friendly service, and dirt cheap. The Cubano was a slight bit on the dry side, but fantastic flavors.

This is a GREAT Cubano Sandwich. I can't speak of the steak sandwich but my girlfriend and roommate both agreed it was VERY GOOD! The joint is small and each sandwich is prepared freshly. The bread…

I didn't even know this place was here! It's literally 2 blocks from my house - i'll have to stay away or i'll be 3000 pounds. Anyways, found it from some reviews on here and sent the hubby to pickup…

I had made a cubano sandwich at home a few times and they had always turned out really well, but it was time to try one made by someone who knew what they were doing. So, off to El Cubanito I went.…

Even after reading review after review about the beef sandwiches, I decided to go with a Cubano. Still very good. But the Timba is even better. Based on what I tasted, I'd go for that.

HOLD UP, *BEFORE* reading further, if you've never been here but plan to: take a look at El Cubanito's profile pics, specifically the picture of the El Cubanito signage. Got it? Good. Now remember…

Be on the lookout when you make the trek to el cubanito, they are hard to spot. That being said once you spot it youll know its a real gemmer. I lived in Tampa for a year and got to experience the…

El Cubanito has the best steak sandwich I've had in Chicago, and I eat them on a weekly basis. The steak is tender, chopped finely, and with cuban seasoning. It's served on a perfect pressed bread…

Keep your eyes peeled or you'll miss this place. They have amazing steak sandwiches. Don't expect a skirt steak, the steak is chopped and oh so flavorful. The Cubano s/w is ham, cheese, pork, mayo…

Even though it took me at least 3 U-Turns before I actually found the place, it was so worth it. Today was a rare day where I was in the city during normal work hours, and I drove miles out of my way…

Ay Papi, this place rocks the best sandwich per square inch of customer space in the world. The building is meager in a meager area of town, but the service and sandwiches can not be beat. In my…

Went on a Sunday afternoon at 2 pm and it was packed (not hard to do in this tiny space). And I quickly found out why: their sandwiches flat-out rocked. The Cuban was wonderful - crisp and melty and…

All I have to say is, Pan con Timba! The crusty bread with cheese and guava! Who would have ever thought that'd be an amazing mix? The salty from the cheese and the candied guava is a beautiful blend…

I am gonna go ahead and agree with Maya C's review, with one minor clarification. Describing this place as a "hole in the wall" is an insult to things that could've been covered with toothpaste the…
