" I’ve been coming to this restaurant for years. The cemita de milanesa is my absolute favorite! They make it just right, filled with delicious toppings. Sometimes, the service isn't the fastest, but the food quality always shines through. I often recommend it to new friends looking for authentic Mexican food! Parking can be tricky, but it’s worth parking a little farther away for such great flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Cemitas Poblanas El Sapito was an experience worth sharing! The atmosphere is friendly, and I felt right at home. I ordered the milanesa cemita, which was filled with flavorful ingredients and had that authentic taste reminiscent of Puebla. The bread was soft yet slightly crispy, complimenting the fillings perfectly. Although there was a bit of a wait for my meal, it was freshly prepared and absolutely delicious. I can't wait to go back for another one. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying the tacos arabes but was left disappointed. They weren't as flavorful as I had anticipated, and the service was quite slow that day. On the other hand, the cemitas de milanesa were amazing! They packed a punch of authentic flavor, making for a pleasant meal overall. I just wish the service had matched the quality of the food. I'll give it another try when I’m back in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cemitas Poblanas El Sapito is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon it last week and was thrilled by the experience. The cemitas are the best I’ve ever had, with layers of fresh avocado, perfectly seasoned meat, and a delightful sesame-seed bread. The ambiance is cozy, perfect for friends and families. Be prepared to wait a bit during busy times, but don’t let that deter you; the food is worth every minute. A must-visit in Boyle Heights! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took a spur-of-the-moment trip here, and I was ecstatic with what I found! The cemita was fulfilling and packed with flavor, showcasing authentic cooking techniques. However, the service left something to be desired, as I felt overlooked at times. A unique gem in the city, though. It is worth a visit for the food alone! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place to grab an authentic cemita. Their prices are reasonable, and the quality is excellent. The only issue was the delay in receiving my order. A casual setting that still has charm. I will definitely come back for another meal and bring friends along next time! " (*Curated Review*)
