Unfortunate. Empty restaurant and both empanadas and potato ball came out cold, and both orders of chicken and yellow rice weren't any better. This used to be our go to, no longer.
October 2025
Black beans and rice and plantains are very good! Fried pork chunks were not good... not really fried, not seasoned at all except very salty, the pork was dark and strong tasting, not tasty at all.
September 2025
Very good family owned Cuban Restaurant. They have a variety of menu options.
Very reasonable prices. Order at the window and they bring out your food.
Only serve canned soda products so no refills on drinks unless you order ice tea.
