About El Oriental De Cuba
El Oriental De Cuba Reviews
I always check out places and rate them if they are friendly/safe to Black and POC peoples I have been coming here since my early 20s. So for about 20 years they have been serving the community with excellent Cuban food. The only downside is when you call in a order for pick up it may take a while. But the food and customer service is always the best.
You can definitely see the history of this place. The owner died a few years ago but the family still owns and cares for this restaurant. I got the speciality cuban sandwich with everything on it and it was so great. Perfect mayo/mustard ratio, the pork was moist, and the bread was fresh. Have to stop by if you love cuban food and you're in Jamaica Plain.
Good Cuban good with fast and friendly service. Yucas was good with special carrot sauce. The Masitas de puerco (fried pork chunks) we over cooked and meat was not lean— skip.
El Oriental De Cuba has been serving excellent Cuban food to the community for over 20 years. The family-owned restaurant offers friendly service, although wait times for pick-up orders can be long. The Cuban sandwich is a standout, with a perfect mayo/mustard ratio, moist pork, and fresh bread. While the Masitas de puerco may be overcooked, the Yucas with special carrot sauce is a tasty option. Stop by this historic spot in Jamaica Plain for a delicious Cuban meal.
