Came to eat today. They had no white rice only Yellow rice. My wife said last week thursday they didn't have pork nor steak. How you going to be a Cuban restaurant and not have at least white rice and you’re literally in same plaza as publix. The menu has also changed and not friendly to read. I don’t have anything to say bad about staff since we didn’t stay since there was no white rice. Also you didn’t have working bathrooms. Technically you shouldn’t had been open since you didn’t have working bathrooms. Anyways I’m wish them the best of luck.

Empanadas are not the best. Very small airy and not filled , and the meat seems like it has some sort of filler. The Cuban sandwiches are good.

I got the pork bowl to go. The pork was in a separate container from the rice, but there was a lot of straight up grease in the pork container. The food was okay, maybe I will try something different another time.

Authentic, flavorful food served fresh and quick enough. Kind of a hole in the wall but overcome with warm service. We’ll be back.

The food was tasty but extremely salty. I suggest the chef be more careful. The amount served per plate was extremely small for an adult. One of the dishes came with yuca and there were 3 very small pieces. The portion of rice was so small that we had to pay for an extra one. It's really a shame because the food was tasty. Unfortunately I haven't taken a picture.

The food is good. My shrimp were salty, but they made a delicious green sauce. I deep out the shrimp in it to kind of salted off. And I asked fir platano maduro and I got 2 tostones. At least I got my yuca frita. But I didn't complain about the tostones though

Been going there for years
Lately the food is a bit different as I always order a steak but this chef burns every one
Today I finally sent it back as it was well done and I want rare. Seems he doesn’t know what rare is
Yuca is the best
Salad used to come chopped with cucumbers
The female servers are all great especially Myti but the male server talks too much to the other servers
Today he kept rubbing his face and scratching his neck. After that he took out the garbage and went behind the counter joking around again
Didn’t wash his hands at all
I asked Myti to bring my food out so he wouldn’t touch my plate
He needs more training

I stop in whenever I am in town for some breakfast, and it has always been good. The service is usually very quick, and everyone is attentive. My boyfriend and I always order empanadas and some croquetas. Their chicken empanadas are not great, but their meat ones are delicious. Last time, we ordered their guava pastelito, which is definitely not comparable to the authentic Cuban ones, but it tasted good. Overall, it's a nice place to stop by for a quick grab-and-go bite.

I've ordered via door dash twice and both times the orders were perfect! I asked for certain items to be packed separately and they have each time. Both pork dishes (Masas de Cerdo and Lechon Asado were prepared perfectly each time! My kids are unfortunately super picky and don't share in my love of Cuban food but they were raving about how tender and flavorful the meat was. My son loves the Empanadas and El Cubano. Ive had the cordadito too and it was great. My only complaint is I wish there was a location closer to my house because I feel bad doordashing from so far away. Hands down one of the best options for dinner.

The atmosphere is nice but that's not what I want. I want a good Cuban sandwich! The Cuban sandwich was the skinniest and most poorly dressed Cuban sandwich I have ever had. I had another from La Segunda one week later that was the same price without indoor seating at all and it was amazing.

I have not been here in a couple of years... Food is good, portions are usually ok. But today I was not happy....
For a plate of Vaca Frita @$17.99, I only got three small pieces of Platano Maduros. Large portion of rice (cheap to serve), decent portion of beef, and three tiny pieces of plantain. I love Maduros... that was one of the main reasons I stopped here, they used to load it up. I guess I could have ordered a side... but for the price, that is stingy!
Probably won't be back, since it is a bit of a drive.
Reply to my review was rude also!
