I was recently invited down to Yordan Cafe to sample their cuisine. Located on the corner of Silver Star Rd. and N Clarke Rd. in Ocoee, Yordan Cafe recently opened, just 7 months ago. I sat down with Isaac Cruz, the owner, who had me sample their Cuban sandwich, black beans and rice, and a garbanzo bean soup. I was really pleased with all of the food. The meat in the Cuban sandwich was tender, and the combination of mustard and pickles gave it the perfect tangy flavor. The black beans and rice, as well as the soup were excellent. Both were topped with fresh diced onions which gave them a unique flavor.
The staff was polite and helpful. The restaurant itself is small, but quiet. It’s a great place to have a nice, hot lunch without having to deal with a large crowd or noisy restaurant. They also have free Wi-Fi, so you could easily get some work done in this peaceful environment.
I’m really happy Isaac contacted me about reviewing Yordan Cafe. I don’t make it to this side of town too often, and probably never would have discovered this great place had he not done so. This really is a great place to eat.
