The Cuban sandwich, or sándwich cubano, is one of the most iconic pressed sandwiches in Latin cuisine. At Los Andes in Jacksonville Beach, we honor this Cuban classic with a fresh, flavorful version made with slow-cooked pork, ham, cheese, and house sauces—pressed and grilled until perfectly crisp.
While we’re not a Cuban restaurant, our Latin roots inspire everything we serve, and our Cuban sandwich is a customer favorite for good reason.

What Is a Cuban Sandwich?
Originally from Cuba and perfected in the streets of Tampa and Miami, the Cuban sandwich is made with:
- Roast pork
- Sliced ham
- Swiss cheese
- Pickles
- Mustard
- Served on Cuban bread, pressed on the grill
The result is a warm, crunchy, savory sandwich that balances richness with acidity. At Los Andes, we prepare ours with Latin flavor and attention to detail, staying close to the original while adding a unique house touch.
Why People Love the Cuban Sandwich
The Cuban sandwich is more than a sandwich—it’s a staple of Caribbean Latin street food. It’s:
- Hot and melty, with layered textures
- Portable and filling, great for lunch or casual dinner
- Packed with flavor, no need for extra sauces
Ours is served fresh, pressed on the grill, and ready to enjoy on its own or paired with fries, chicha morada, or any of our Latin sides.
