If you know, you know. The Cuban sub at Capo Deli Tysons isn’t just a sandwich—it’s a craving. A legend. A pressed, pickle-packed, pork-layered masterpiece that keeps fans coming back for that perfect bite. Whether you’ve loved it for years or you’re new to Capo, it’s time to meet (or re-meet) the sandwich that has Tysons talking.

The Cuban sandwich, or Cubano, is a beloved culinary creation that has evolved over time. Its origins trace back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with roots in the Cuban immigrant communities of Florida, particularly in Tampa and Key West.

The sandwich became a lunch staple for workers in both the cigar factories and sugar mills of Cuba and the cigar factories of Key West by the 1860s. As travel between Cuba and Florida was easy, especially from Key West and Tampa, Cubans frequently sailed back and forth for employment, pleasure, and family visits, leading to a blend of cultural and culinary traditions.

At first glance, the Cuban might look simple—but every layer is thoughtfully crafted with care and flavor, just like all our sandwiches. It’s part of the signature experience our customers know and love.

It starts with house-roasted pork: juicy, citrusy and bursting with flavor. Then comes a layer of smoked ham for richness, Swiss cheese for that melty, nutty bite and a classic smear of yellow mustard for a tangy kick. Add in those essential crisp pickles, and it all gets pressed on our signature sub roll until it’s golden, crunchy and just right.

No shortcuts. No gimmicks. Just an unforgettable take on the Cuban sandwich.

There’s a reason this sandwich has a following. It’s that perfect contrast—the warmth of the meat, the melt of the cheese, the crunch of the roll. It’s nostalgic. It’s bold. And it brings the iconic flavors of Miami to the heart of Northern Virginia.
