Linda’s Cafe and Smoothie Bar

Yummy! Check this place out. Freshly cooked, delicious spanish food and chilled and refreshing smoothies. Owners Linda and Andre community minded, friendly and great to talk too.
We had the fried chicken and Pernil dinners with tostones and a couple of smothers. Everything was cooked to order and perfectly delicious.
Plenty of parking is available on local side streets and in a lot behind the building on Short Street.
Thank you!

I order the lunch special that did not include the chicken (because I am a vegetarian). Lunch special includes the choice of white or yellow rice or you can get tostones (fried plantains) and that comes with a side of beans and your choice of meat. I order the yellow rice with beans convo and along with that I ordered a side of tostones and a side of salad. The rice was flavorful, but the beans in the other hand tasted a lot like chili (which some of you may like, but I didn’t really like it at all). I loved their tostones it had a garlic taste to it and I loved the blended orange sauce that came with it. The salad just came with cherry tomatoes, thin cut carrots and cucumbers (they only you give you a small portion, so I guess you get what for what you pay for). If you are eating in, they do not give you a glass of water, instead you get a bottle of water (they charge you $ 1 of the water). Therefore, I highly recommend skipping drinking the water and ordering a smoothie, I tasted the Vanilla Banamango and it was delicious!!! It had a mango after taste, but you can also taste the banana. They had healthy options smoothie, but I went for the popular flavor. The young man serving us was pretty nice and friendly. The wall had little frames with quotes written on them. Will I go back? Maybe, for their smoothie and tostones.

Food was authentic hot and tasty. Owner & staff very friendly. Great family atmosphere.
