The food is delicious here!!!! We tried the arroz amarillo, chicken empanadas, ensalada de aguacate, pechuga de pollo empanizada con mojo. Yuuuummmmm ?way better than the last Cuban place we went to. Oh my goddess the rice and black beans were perfection!!This place is really, really good. You can tell they use quality ingredients and really care about taste and presentation. I love the decor with paintings of Cuba and Orisas ?

Great food for the price. Portions are tasty and something about the food feels homemade in the best way possible. Good luck finding parking though, good ole north Hollywood for you.

Walking in is stepping into a different world! Hidden in the corner of a strip mall is a portal to Cuba. Although it is darker inside once your eyes adjust, it is a comfortable restaurant.I ordered the Chicken breast in Mojo sauce and my wife got the oxtail. Both were good. We both cleaned our plates.The service was good and we declared that this is our new go to place for Cuban food in the east valley!
