Guajiro Reviews
As a Miami native, Cuban food is my soul food. I haven't had real, authentic Cuban food since South Florida... until now. Can food comfort your very soul? Yes, yes it can. And I have found it at Guajiro. Thank you, Guajiro, for bringing the tropics to the mountains. ❤️
🔥 Just had their food and I am blown away! I’ve been missing real Cuban food since leaving South Florida, and this spot nails it. Authentic, flavorful, and hands down the BEST Cuban food in the Carolinas (maybe ever!). This is true Cuban comfort food, and I’ll 100% be coming back again and again. 💯🙌
Excellent!! We had the Cuban Sandwich, empanadas and ham croquet. Everything was delicious and we enjoyed sitting outside at Hi Wire brewery. Great spot.
