Maggie's Place Latin Cafe - Lake City

The driest Cuban sandwich I’ve ever eaten! This was my 2nd attempt at giving this place a chance. Never again! Very disappointed!

My brother and I live far from Lake City, we come to visit our father as often as possiblewho lives in Wellborn. We generally dont come this far unto Lake City. Today we were hungry and Googled restaurants and found Maggie's Latin Restaurant. They closing in 15 minutes, so we felt a little bad about showing up right before closing. The owner and staff were super friendly, the place is quaint and charming. The food was absolutely delicious. If you're in the area or even traveling the interstate its worth stopping and eating at this little gem. I'm so glad we found it, and I'll definitely be back. I'd come again tomorrow if I could bit They aren't open on weekends. Make this a must have if you're in Lake City.

This time around I ordered the bistec de pollo and onions with yellow rice, black beans, fried yuca, mango shake, couple of Mexican cokes, and an iced Cuban coffee w/ caramel. I've tried many items on the menu and Maggie's fantastic staff have yet to disappoint. I love the atmosphere and the people are always so friendly and full of conversation if you've got a moment while you wait. My first trip here they were actually closed but Maggie and the crew insisted to opened the kitchen to make me hands down the best Cuban sandwich in all of North Florida. I recommend Maggie's Place to anyone with an empty stomach or if you're just looking to please your taste buds. Thank you Adam Starling for suggesting them to me.

Since moving from Nashville TN I was looking for a place to go to get Spanish food. Someone at the hospital where I work told me about Maggie's so I thought ok I will try it out and was really looking forward to it. But I was very disappointed the prices were a little high for what I got. The food was not what I was expecting. Got my sister a dinner that landed in the trash she couldn't eat it. I ate very little of what I got. Was very disappointed in this place. Will not go back. But I'm happy to finally find a place to go that had excellent food right down the road from where I live. Two Cuban's and a guy in lake City on hwy 90.

Highly recommend you visit if you're looking for a great atmosphere with great authentic cuban food. Oh, I can't leave out that Maggie and Mom were very hospitable.
