My favorite Cuban sandwich ever was made by a place called Little John’s in Key West. It no longer exists, sadly. But it looked a lot like this. Lettuce, tomato, and mustard-mayo. Maybe it’s not the traditional way but man, it was delicious.

This is a Cuban in the same way a melt is a grilled cheese. That being said, I’d still eat it.

This is awful. I hope they’re disappointed in themselves.

Sandwich purists are losing it! Looks good to me.
Honestly, Cubanos are not a perfect sandwich in my opinion. Traditionally served with just yellow mustard is lame – they are 100% better with some Chipotle aioli or at least some mayo.

This is not a Cuban or a riff on a CubanÂ

I’m not a sandwich purist… but if I ordered a Cuban and this is what I received, I would not be happy.
It just looks like a Jimmy John’s sandwich (which is fine if that’s what I want, but not if I want a Cuban.)

Do you have a link for this shop? I tried to Google but stuck out. Curious what else they do.

Everytime I order a Cuban and its not a Cuban it makes me sad. Don’t riff on good sandwiches.

I don’t think you can even call that Cuban adjacent at that point.

Lettuce and tomatoes? Hell no.
