Thank you for not disappointing. My friends and I had a girls' night, and they had not known this existed. They were happy with their meals and impressed with the place.I had been here twice, and the 3rd time was still a charm.Gives the other Cuban places a run for their money.

Parking: Parking lot is free but is shared with the neighbors. The lot is small and has limited spots to begin with but we got lucky when we visited & got a spot right away.
