Authentic Cuban sandwiches & coffee served from a tiny house
"Whether a quick stop at the original location inside a tiny home in a Sandy Springs parking lot or a visit to the newer Roswell address, which includes a bar, Cubanos has nailed the Cuban sandwich and cafe con leche combo, using a crunchy, toasted bread from La Segunda Bakery (established in 1915) in Tampa. From Cuba to South Florida to Atlanta, owner Ozzy Llanes has made a point of preserving his roots through food. Drop into either location on Mondays for a free Cuban cafecito or visit the Roswell storefront on Thursday evenings for free salsa lessons." - Allison Ramirez
"I saw Cubanos ATL is opening on Mitchell Street as part of the South Downtown renovation project, offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner and a full bar similar to its Roswell location." - Beth McKibben
"The first full-service location of the wildly popular Cuban sandwich shop opens Sept. 20 in downtown Roswell, offering an expanded menu and a full cocktail bar. Expect a tight list of traditional Cuban sandwiches (all created using family recipes), plus breakfast items like overnight oats, Cuban toast, and ham-and-cheese croissants paired with Cuban coffee; Spanish, Italian, and spicy-themed charcuterie boards; and desserts such as caramel flan and tres leches cake. The bar begins serving mojitos, daiquiris, beer, and wine in the afternoon. Service is counter-order with a number system and food is delivered to your table. The sit-down restaurant occupies the former Cricket Wireless space at 1007 Alpharetta Street and seats around 60 between the dining room, a small bar, and a sunny patio decked with bright yellow chairs, red umbrellas, and string lights; it also features a retail section selling wines from Argentina, Spain, and Napa Valley and Cuban rums, vodka, tequila, and other beverages. Owner Ozzy Llanes — who started Cubanos ATL as a tiny house food trailer during the pandemic and later opened additional locations in Cumming and at the Chattahoochee Food Works — plans further expansion, including a South Downtown spot on Mitchell Street. Open Sunday–Wednesday 8 a.m.–7 p.m.; Thursday–Saturday 8 a.m.–10 p.m.; cubanosatl.com." - Beth McKibben
"Cuban sandwich and coffee shop Cubanos ATL in Sandy Springs is located inside a custom-built tiny house on Roswell Road. It quickly become a hot spot for Cuban sandwiches and coffee drinks after opening in 2020. All of the shop’s sandwiches are served on La Segunda Central Bakery bread — the oldest Cuban bread maker in the United States — and are created using family recipes. Simply walk up to the window, place an order, and wait to be called. Cubanos ATL includes locations in Cumming, Alpharetta, and at Chattahoochee Food Works." - Beth McKibben
"Born in Cuba and raised in Miami, Ozzy Llanes wanted to find an authentic Cuban sandwich shop in Atlanta, where he moved to work in finance. After years of searching to no avail, he decided to create his own. During the onset of the pandemic, he built a tiny house in his driveway. He then convinced a Sandy Springs shopping center to let him move said house onto its parking lot. By opening day in August 2020, Cubanos ATL already had 4,000 followers—and sold out of sandwiches in 45 minutes. Cubanos ATL doesn’t have a liquor license, but its dangerously strong four-ounce pour of colada (Cuban espresso) should require an I.D. Llanes also sells hard-to-find Cuban sodas such as pineapple-flavored Jupina and cream-soda-like Ironbeer." - Allison Weiss Entrekin
