My husband Scott and I dined in this beautiful restaurant and enjoyed every minute of it! The food was delicious, the wine was superb and the service was phenomenal...our server, Mike was great, he went out of his way to make sure that we felt welcomed and ensured that we had an enjoyable dining experience! I told my daughter Ashley about this outstanding Cuban Restaurant and she can't wait to dine there! I highly recommend, The Cuban Restaurant...it is the Gem of Union...

Lovely neighborhood bar with a nice happy hour. But the highlight here is the staff, everyone is so warm, friendly and just so accommodating and nice. Highly recommend. We have been here twice and will keep coming back! And special shout out to Mariana and Silvia who were our servers today, wonderful folks!

You may be wondering how I reviewed it as 4 stars if everything is 5?? Everything was great, they really improved the place since its predecessor.

The only thing that I (personally) didn’t like was the fact that they automatically added an 18% gratuity to the bill. I wish I would have known upfront rather than be surprised in the end.
