Sentir Cubano — Attraction in Miami

Miami, FL. Google Cuban souvenirs and you won’t find anything unless you live here and this store is the BEST. I moved to Orlando and wanted a set of Cuban cafecito cups for mi amiga cubanita and Orlando had zero Cuban things for sale, only cigars and coffee. Luckily we drove down here to see friends and I located this store on G Maps.

So WOW! A much better selection of cafecito tazas than even on Amazon or online! Online the sets were $30 minimum up to $50 and here I only paid $21.99 for my set (see photo). The sets were marked at $24.99 but they had a sale and I only paid $21.99.

So they had lots of dishes, miniature congo drums and musical instruments, bumper stickers, magnets, Cuban flags, plaques and artwork, t-shirts, hats, collectible spoons, costume jewelry, cds, toys, and more. I didn’t even go in the back of the store, but it was crammed with quality items and very well organized.

Excellent, friendly customer service from the staff who even offered pineapple juice...

There is nothing more rewarding than to go to a store that caters to our nostalgia for the past.

Sentir Cubano bears its name to perfection because from entering the store we 'feel Cuban' as we find domino games displaying Cuban symbols, Guayabeas, polo shirts displaying Cuban American Flags, the symbols of each of the provinces of Cuba and or the famous schools we attended back in the Island.

The way Coffee was made, the way we grind our meats, to today's cafeteras, jewelry and Chess games where the pieces are the patriots of Cuba.

What a delight, there is no visitor to our home that we do not take them to see the store, we have bought many a polo shirt and whenever we wear them, we get compliments for the embroidered...

The store itself was very unique and had really awesome things to choose from. However i can’t say the same wonderful things about the employee. My daughter is half Cuban (fathers side) and was representing Cuba for Hispanic heritage month. When i walked in one of the employees signaled the other one to keep an eye on me. And when i changed my mind on the item i was going to buy, the employee took a big sigh and made a face. Another thing, when i asked for children’s apparel she replied “you do know everything in this store is Cuban right?” If it wasn’t for the necessity of needing to buy something for my daughter, i would’ve definitely left. It’s safe to say I’d rather order something from amazon for a cheaper price and avoid...
