Delicious & Affordable! My friend and I stumbled on this place and were blown away at the simplicity and authentic deliciousness. Good menu with great options! The tostones and fried pork are highly recommended. You may need a Spanish speaker
I have tried most of the Cuban restaurants in and around Chicago and this is the best for authentic Cuban food and consistency. I find the BYOB a real plus. The only problem is the hours are short if you want to go out for dinner. Almost impossible if you are a working person to get to the restaurant before closing. Even weekends are a problem. The quality of the food makes it my favorite place to go to eat the best Cuban food.

For Cuban food, this is my favorite. Been going here for years, never been a disappointment. Everything is cooked to order It might take a little longer, but everything is always right on point. Never Have I been disappointed Consistent owner is on the premises And she also is the cook

Have always loved their food. Wife said their Cubano was the best she's ever had!
D Cuba the only thing about Cuba there is the flag because neither the cook nor the waitress could explain it, for example, a Chinese man selling Mexican tacos 🌮; I mean, a Mexican selling Chinese food, I mean, someone trying to do something they don't know, once again they can deceive others but never explain it to a Cuban.

Party of two. Had the Jibarito and the Cubano. Also had the rice and beans.
Both sandwiches were generous in size. And both were good. However both needed a little extra something. A sauce to give it a kick of flavor. Just needed something. Otherwise, the meat was tender and pretty flavorful.
The rice and beans were excellent!
Service was the right amount of attentiveness. Our server to good care of us. Her English was limited.
