The flavor of the Cuban sandwich was tasty,however, I asked for no mayo/mustard/oil, and the sandwich was slathered in mayo and dripping in oil.The empanadas are hard as a rock;the small container of red beans and rice were good but not worth $5.99.Overall the quality is there but preparation is lacking.

Very disappointed. The food was not good at all. Tostones hard as a rock. Arroz con pollo was mushy and tasted bad. Churrasco had no flavor. Terrible service we had to ask for drink refills because our waiter only brought drinks to us once . German cockroaches on the floor under the table next to us . All they said was sorry about that. And 20% tip on a party of 4 3 adults and a toddler) do not recommend them at ALL. We feel disgusted after eating here

I love to go to this place. The chicharrones are to die for and the food always makes me thing of my dear country Colombia.🥰
