Absolutely love this place. A hidden gem in Des Plaines!
Our first time trying Cuban food so we asked for recommendations from our amiable server, Natalie. She deserves a raise.
Everything was delicious from the appetizer to the desserts and beverage. Just try everything they offer, guaranteed good. Service and ambiance is very nice.
Will be back for sure!

Adorable interior when we went to pick up and the waitress was so sweet getting our order for us when we showed up. Food was absolutely amazing and full of flavor! Rich sauces that complement the meats and breads. We also got the soup of the day which had chicken, potatoes, carrots, corn and a few other elements to it and it blew my mind. Rich, savory and the right spices. We are from Iowa but will definitely go back when we are in the area again!
