The Scene – Inexpensive Spanish and Cuban restaurants are patronized daily by locals who know a good thing when they taste it. Among the best is this busy, bustling restaurant located in a Spanish neighborhood. It has both counter service, which is almost as fast as McDonald's, and a sit-down dining room. The prices are so low you'll find it's a favorite with large families. – – The Food – Traditional Cuban and Spanish dishes are served in gaping portions.

24 hour CUBAN FOOD! wow!
by FloridaRobert
24 hours a day and not bad. Actually it is pretty good, though at 3am the customers are sort of scary, but then I didn't look in the mirror. I went back for lunch, again again at least one a week. Going to keep coming every time I'm in this area. OH.. and it is close to the airport and football stadium... Go there.. but keep in mind it is a COUNTER DINNER, not a restaurant.

Being from a Cuban family and eating authentic Cuban food all my life I can actually say that this restaurant has changed its true flavor which I don't say is wrong becuase they may be after a larger spectrum of people. Food at La Teresita to a Cuban is like Olive Garden is eating authentic Italian food to an Italian or Don Papblos is to a Mexican.

Great Cuban delight!!
by Memphisgirl11
Our son and girlfriend (Cuban) treated us to a wonderful meal with good service! They were patient with our questions and nice. They even treated me to a free dessert to take home! We will make this a regular stop to our visits! Thank you to a wonderful experience in Cuban hospitality and great food!
- Pros: Be ready to be overwhelmed with lots of good food!
- Cons: Service a little slow but was late Sunday night.
