great variety of flavorful small plates at a reasonable price. The atmosphere is lively, and the staff is friendly and attentive. A perfect spot for a casual yet delicious meal in downtown Chicago

I used to come here a lot in college but haven’t been back in 10 years. It still lives up, ordered the Ropa Vieja sandwich which is a slow roasted steak with sweet plantains. It was so good. Also ordered a small bean soup, it was lacking flavor. It definitely needed more salt. But it came with a side of warm bread that was awesome.
I definitely can’t wait to come back and order more sandwiches!!

Great coffee spot, with very good Cuban and Latin American food. The cortado is great, and don’t forget to try the cubano sandwich! One of my to-go places, will go there at least once a month!
