    Great service and some really well made cuban food I dont see at other cafes.

    Plus knowing my dollar goes to a good cause was the cherry on top of an already great experience!

    Great and quaint place with a Caribbean decor for authentic Latin breakfast! Definitely come try it out.

    As a first-generation Cuban American born and raised in Miami, I do not hand out compliments about Cuban food lightly — and Café Reyes absolutely earned every one of them. From the second we walked in, the service was exceptional: warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely hospitable in a way that made us feel like family.

    The lechón asado was phenomenal. Perfectly slow-roasted, unbelievably tender, and packed with rich garlic-citrus mojo flavor that instantly brought me back to Miami family parties and ventanita spots I grew up with. Crispy edges, juicy center, seasoned exactly right — authentic in every way.

    The Cuban sandwich was equally impressive, made on real Cuban bread with that perfect crisp press on the outside and soft interior inside. Every bite had the ideal balance of roasted pork, ham, Swiss, pickles, and mustard. I also had the pan con lechón, and honestly, it was one of the best I’ve had outside of South Florida.

    The rest of our group ordered the tostones, maduros, mofongo with ropa vieja, and flan, and every single dish was nothing short of incredible. The ropa vieja was rich and deeply flavorful, the mofongo was perfectly textured and comforting, the maduros were sweet and caramelized just right, and the tostones were crispy and fresh. And the flan? Absolutely outstanding — silky, creamy, and the perfect ending to the meal.

    Café Reyes brought authentic Cuban comfort food to Worcester in a way that truly impressed me. You can taste the love, tradition, and authenticity in every dish. This place feels like a little piece of Miami, and I cannot wait to come back next time we visit the area!

    Absolutely amazing experience at Cafe Reyes! I had the ham and cheese empanada and the pollo saltado, and both were incredible. The empanada was perfectly crispy on the outside with a rich, flavorful filling, and the pollo saltado was hands-down one of the best I’ve had — tender, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly.
    The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and you can really feel the heart behind this place. We loved learning the backstory — it makes supporting this restaurant even more special. Great food, great service, great vibes. We’ll definitely be back!

    Excellent Cuban-American restaurant with nice interior space (and soon outdoor terrace), good food and service. Their bocadito breakfast sandwich with a cafe con leche is awesome, on par with what one would get at the renowned Versailles in Little Havana, Miami. The Reyes Cafe also has a worthy and needed social mission as a training center for residents and graduates of the Hector Reyes House, Worcester. Local business worth supporting with your patronage!
