La Palmerita is a hidden gem in the heart of the city, offering an authentic taste of Cuban cuisine. Despite the small and unassuming atmosphere, the food is consistently praised as excellent. Dishes like hígado a la Italiana, Masitas de Puerco Fritas con moros, and ropa vieja delight customers, with many noting that the flavor is like no other. The yuca and platanitos are also standout sides. While the restaurant may seem a bit outdated and has limited seating, it is primarily a carry-out kind of place, which many customers appreciate. The warm, family-friendly vibe and lively music create a welcoming environment. Although the language barrier can be a challenge, recent reviews highlight that staff have made an effort to communicate better with English-speaking customers. Whether dining in or taking out, La Palmerita is a must-visit for those seeking a true Cuban culinary experience.
