Best WLM Reviews
I walked in and ordered two regular Cubans and paid for them . Lady went back and made them almost right away. I was only there for a total of maybe six minutes. Young couple came in behind me, they phoned in an order and there’s were not ready yet. Just the one lady working Handling the phone and cash register thankfully she kept changing her gloves when she went back and forth to the food , this was at 10 after 12 lunchtime on a Wednesday. The decor is not very pretty the price for the two Cubans regular with onion and lettuce were 21 and some change.. the sandwiches itself was not the greatest. Did the traditional fold up the meat make it look big in the middle and hardly any at the end couldn’t taste the pork at all. It was just like eating a ham sandwich. I would give that about a three out of 10. Had to try it because it’s close by my house but don’t think I’ll be back.
Could definitely use a remodel inside and it doesn’t look the best but the food is great and the service ok the lady seems to do it all herself in there but this is a true American dream in the flesh because its people providing for the people dont just look at the outside taste it and see
Lee was the star of my experience at this restaurant. I had recently moved up to the Northside back in August and I always do laundry next door and I always walk by the restaurant so today I finally had the chance to experience it. Some of the previous reviews are very harsh about the interior. Yes it is dated but that is what adds to the experience. It made me feel at home. Lee talked with me the entire time she was making my food and was a breath of fresh air. She has been running the business on her own for a very long time. She's been at this location for 25 years and for the last 3 she's been working there alone. So to those who are complaining about the upkeep and how things are dusty and what not, you have to understand that she is the soul to the business and it's only employee. She does what she can to keep the doors open. What she needs is the support of locals and for us to show love. The food was great and the menu has me excited to see what's next. All bigger chain restaurants around her are taking over her clientele and I understand how harsh that is as a small business owner. I give her food a 10/10 because it gave me nostalgia while I was eating and her service a 10/10 for being so hospitable and kind. The restaurant could use some love but it's nothing that we the people can't handle. I will be recommending everyone I know to eat a Lee's restaurant and I encourage all the prior reviewer to give her a second chance and understand her position. If you were in the same shoes as her your eyes would be wide open. Thank you so much Lee I greatly appreciate the experience you gave me and I will be looking forward to seeing you soon.
P.s. I have included pictures of the food I got and the updated menu they have available.
The experience at this restaurant was deeply disappointing. The establishment was neither clean nor organized, which should have been a red flag, but hunger led me to stay. The overpowering smell of used, dirty cooking oil was the first sign of trouble. I ordered a "Cuban" sandwich, only to find it was pre-made and refrigerated, likely due to the lone employee managing the place.
The sandwich was a poor imitation of a Cuban classic, lacking mojo pork, salami, and Swiss cheese. It did contain ham, but it had an unpleasant, vinegary taste. Although the staff member added onions, lettuce, and tomato as I requested, the tomato had an unsettling black spot. The sandwich was pressed for a mere 30 seconds, leaving the bread slightly warm but the interior disappointingly cold. I managed to eat half before the sight of the tomato made me discard the rest.
I didn't initially plan to write this review, but after suffering from stomach ache and diarrhea, I felt compelled to share my experience. To the owner, my aim is not to harm your business but to encourage necessary improvements. Please consider the feedback from my review and others to enhance the quality of your service and food.
We order 2 Cubans, we dined in..she did everything by herself & ready within 10mins because they are premade in the refrigerator ..warmed in the microwave & toasted on the grill and she adds the vegetables.. Place looked dirty.. Food tasted great until we saw hair in our food, roaches & nats everywhere. She seemed like a very sweet lady, much respect & love to her for holding the place down by herself basically all the time from what I’ve seen. But seeing the roach right next to me while I ate made me lose my appetite for the restaurant itself…
Absolutely disgusting experience. Had to walk out without even eating. The older lady that took our cash was caught making and handling our food without ever washing her hands after handling physical money and touching everything. Everything inside was just dirty and looked like it was never cleaned. This place needs to be thoroughly inspected. It is gross

Nice people. I ordered the regular Cuban Sandwich (8 inches) for around $10. It was so delicious. I was so hungry the morning Hurricane Milton hit I devoured it and took no pictures.
I’ve never ordered food from somewhere and walked out immediately after. But today I did just that. This place is disgusting. Dirty from floor to wall. You can tell this place hasn’t been cleaned in years. The lady at the counter made the sandwiches with dirty gloves. The ice did work at the soda machine and they had insects fly out of the ice dispenser. I’m still a little confused on how a chines restaurant can be a Cuban sandwich shop. Please believe all the other reviews and do not eat here. I wasted $17 on a sandwich and drink just to simply walk out.
