Family-owned Juana La Cubana Cafe serves up traditional dishes with top-quality and fresh ingredients.
Owner Manuel Coya, from Cuba, founded Juana La Cubana in Guatemala in 2001. Twelve years later, it was sold and opened its doors to Dania Beach residents.
In 2021, Juana La Cubana opened in Coral Springs, thanks to Fort Lauderdale residents David and Victor Molina, who appreciate Cuban gastronomy, leading them to partner up with the original owners and expand the franchise.
Choosing Coral Springs was an easy decision for the Molinas.
“It’s super tranquil, super beautiful, and the residents are very respectful,” said David. The city also offers growth opportunities because of the lack of Latin restaurants.
Their menu offers traditional entrees like croquetas ($3.60), yucca with mojo ($7.25), mariquitas ($6.45), and tostones ($9.70).

Their best-selling dish and customer favorite, Vaca Frita ($10.25), is a must for steak-lovers.
It’s a crispy but tender flank steak marinated with mojo, garlic, and herbs and topped with grilled onions giving the dish a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors.
The world-famous Cuban sandwich ($8.99) is an ideal dish for those on the move and number two on the list of customer favorites.
Toasted and crispy Cuban bread stuffed with tender roast pork, smoked ham, melted swiss cheese, mustard, and pickles explodes in the mouth with a burst of flavors that customers ask for more.
