Cuban Restaurants near Chevy Chase, MD

“We discovered this local gem by searching for empanadas nearby, and it didn’t disappoint! After seeing the menu and reading the Google reviews, we decided to drive over, and it was absolutely worth it. The food was great, and the customer service was exceptional. We tried the Miami Bowl, and everything was fresh and delicious. The yuccas and green sauce were amazing! Whenever we’re on this side of town, we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this spot to all our friends!“

“Excellent Cuban Food and great friendly staff.“

“The best Cuban sandwich I've ever had! Out of three at that (one in Tampa and one in Atlanta) but still unbelievably good! Great iced coffee too. Excellent service, cozy atmosphere, good prices, and super bikeable thanks to the 14th Street NW bus/bike lanes. A real gem in Columbia Heights.“

“Quick, pleasant, and otherwise attentive, staff members at Colada Shop on The Wharf are consummate professionals. Even when I haven’t yet ordered, and am in line, staff prepares my order [they know my preferences] and swiftly checks me out. Coffee and food are delicious. Wonderful.“

“Went on a date with my lady and we enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere here. I had the empanadas de picadillo, picadera cubana(for two) and tres leches accompanied with espresso.

“The chicken is always amazing!!“

“Great food and friendly service with plenty of seating both inside and out! It's a bit pricey but the food quality more than makes up for it.

The food here is excellent. I've had the cuban, the santiago bowl, and the empanadas which were all excellent. The variety and changing menu during the seasons is a nice touch. For drinks, they have a good selection of cafes and smoothies along with cocktails. The miami sunset and mojitos are worth trying!

Parking: It's a free lot out front but the parking center tends to be busy and can be hard to find a spot in front of the shop.“

“La Colada Shop in Clarendon is a true treasure for coffee and Latin food lovers. From the moment you enter, you are surrounded by a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The food is simply delicious: each dish is full of authentic flavors and carefully prepared.

But what really makes La Colada Shop special is the customer service. Geraldine and Jorge stand out for their kindness, professionalism and attention to detail. Their warmth and willingness to make you feel welcome make each visit memorable.

Without a doubt, it is the perfect place to enjoy a good cup of coffee and a first-class culinary experience. Highly recommended!“
