This place unfortunately has gone downhill fast! We used to order from Mima's often, as they had a delicious vegetarian Cuban sandwich. In the past few months, their food has decreased in quality significantly. The bread has been stale, the ingredients used are now sub-par (no more tofu on vegetarian Cuban, base of the sandwich is different) and they regularly forget items we ordered. So disappointed as I used to love this place. Hope they can improve moving forward!

Maybe I went on an off day. But the rice seemed like it wasn't fully cooked. Somewhat stiff. I forgot what else I had so that speaks to how forgettable the meal was, other than the rice. I was fooled by the high stars for this place so thought I'd post my own experience there. Hopefully yours is better if you decide to give this place a try.

This place has such potential, my bf didn’t like the portions I liked the food but some little things like they gave us some old dry limes once I was a little confused as to how anyone can look at that and put it on a plate. Regardless some of the dishes were amazing and some needed improvement. I cook lots of Cuban it’s one of our favorite cuisines, really hoping they put attention to the little things or just be straight up and say you’re out.

Fantastic cortadito and Cubano. I also tried the vegan Cubano and it was fantastic! What a great idea. I love the vibe and the food is delicious. Well done. I wish it opened earlier on Saturdays so I could get an early morning coffee!

This place is a dream come true! I used to work here and they really do have amazing food. The food is always made fresh and the place it’s self is nice and calming.

Empanadas are some of the best hands down! The space is a gem - bar counter made with tobacco leaves and Cuban cigar labels, mural of a street scene on the wall, not to mention the tropical paradise bathroom. The whole place is bursting with ambience. That's not even mentioning the food! Come - it feels like a little vacation right in East Rutherford.

First time here today. Absolutely delicious Cuban food and a really nice space! Think I need to check out Board Game Night next Tuesday. Who wants to come?

One of the best cuban sandwiches i had in a while. Super juicy and flavor. Also the house hot sauce was good .( I ate half before the picture)

This adorable Cafe not only has a hip unique vibe but is so comfortable for its' guests that it feels like an oasis in terms of atmosphere and vibe. The menu is full of great deals and lunch specials and is eclectic, ethnic and tasty. The different blends of coffee are stellar! Cuban food is being taken to a new level with the autumnal blends. Order a guava and cheese pastellito with a pumpkin spice blend coffee. Exceptional food at an affordable price, you will be so satisfied! Try it, they stole the game and leveled it up to 3,000! Which reminds me, Tuesday night is board game night. Sounds like a good excuse to order great food.

They have have game night every Tuesday! It was incredibly fun. I had a Cuban sandwich, which was delicious. Their cafe con leches is perfect.

I've been to many Cuban restaurants and this one deserves to be recognized. Food is amazing. Service is great. Price is great. Atmosphere of this place is great. Parking is a little scarce but there is some street parking in front and a few spots on side of building.
