I had a great time in this place, the Cuban cuisine its great and the service was also great. And I had the pleasure of enjoying the performance of a young Cuban singer who made the night even more enjoyable. His name is Angel Carlos, look for him, you won't regret

The service and show was great. The food was ok, they smoke the chicken to much and was super dry, the churrasco was also dry.
The atmosphere was great!!! Quiet and relaxing place, the server was so nice and respectful. The food was delicious. First time there but I felt in love. A hidden gem in Hialeah Gardens.

Horrible!!! Apparently the good reviews come from family and friends. The server was not the problem. I ordered yuca frita as an appetizer. They were like croquettes and came with a dip. No flavor to them or the dip. The main course was shrimp alfredo. Because I figured it could not be a cuban restaurant. The alfredo was salty and the shrimps were hard and about 3/4 inches in circumsference. I asked the server if it came with a side of bread or salad. Nope, only cheese. The table next to me ordered what I'm guessing were pork chops for all 4 guests. I saw they had a hard time cutting the meat. No wonder the place was empty. I went because of the show they had on this particular night. Will never go again. Horrible!!!

La comida es Excelente. Lo que mas disfruto son las bolitas de queso y las maripositas. El servicio es muy familiar y de calidad. El ambiente es muy bueno. Todo limpio. También tienen conciertos de muy buena calidad. Recomiendo el lugar 100%

I think the only thing good about the place was the server. She was very upbeat attentive and nice how ever when it comes to the food it was not a good experience. I ordered the chicken Gordon bleu and it came out cold the server took it to the kitchen and they gave me a new chicken this time it came out a bit more warm but the cheese and ham were still cold after that 2nd time I couldn't bring myself to ask for a 3rd time to remake the chicken (it seems the chicken is like any store bought chicken put into a freezer and than an oven to cook) I asked if I can have my dish changed, in my eyes that did not seem like a problem as I was going to ask for something more expensive but come to my surprise the server came back after talking to the owner and asked why I wanted to change my dish. I just sent the dish back to the kitchen twice for being cold, was that not enough of a reason, after I spoke with her she said that they will change my dish I ordered a fettuccine Alfredo which my boyfriend had ordered as well. The comparison with the dishes was very noticeable. His was more dry and sticky while mine was creamy. The chicken has no flavor besides the flavor of wood from the furnace and the sauce is a very heavy cream (which I did not mind). I also ordered a crema de queso which I loved and a queso frito which was so-so. Over all it seemed like a very nice place and I wanted to try it but I don't think I'll ever come back here again but that's just my opinion, you can never judge a place until you try it.

This restaurant recalls a well-known culinary venue that existed in the Cuban capital, with a prestigious fame earned over the years, the taste and smell of its dishes are kept in my memory as something exquisite, it was enough to approach the restaurant walking along the sidewalk , so that this mysterious, delicious and unmistakable aroma would flood my pituitary membrane and discharge saliva into my mouth, anticipating a safe tasting. The atmosphere, the decoration, meticulous attention, the care of the smallest detail to please the client, its owner has taken it into account in this new place. An indescribable evening, with the presentation for more than two hours, of one of the most famous, admired and beloved Cuban singers, Alfredito Rodriguez, turned the night into a MEMORABLE encounter, for me (who with more than 40 years of uninterrupted work as sound engineer, the shows and presentations that I have seen, worked, and enjoyed are lost in my memory) and for my family who attended that night, to celebrate my wife's birthday. But sadly, I have to admit that despite ending the night in a state of ecstasy, the food did not meet the slightest of my expectations, despite its beautiful presentation and image, the taste of the famous Polynesian dishes of Vedado They stayed there where they were, in my memories, after 25 years of exile.

Very good service and fantastic food. The fried rice was very good. The chicken salad was very fresh. My sister and I liked the cheese balls a lot. My sister loved their creamy cheese soup.
Excellent service and wonderful place, great taste, but small portion. And be careful, the bill has the tip included!

Deliciosa la comida y a precios increíblemente bajos en estos tiempos. Satisface la nostalgia del restaurante original de tiempos pasados. Linda ambientación y sorprendente preparación de las meseras que aunque muy jóvenes para haber conocido el Polynesio de La Habana, tienen conocimiento de lo que se servía allí. Felicitaciones a la administración y sus trabajadores

The restaurant it’s not big but with nice atmosphere! This place is a great location to bring families. I ordered the churrasco (see picture) it was not tender, french fries were ok. According with my mother in law the Fettuccine was good. Fried Rice was good according to my father in law. My wife ordered the chicken ? and she mentioned that need more flavor. Service was good!
A very cozy place, good service and exquisite
