I’ve previously been to a Cuban Asian fusion spot that closed down when i found this spot. Went last night and was very disappointed. The drinks were good but very over priced. My companion had the chicken and rice. And the chicken was a very small portion and had no flavor and was very dry. I had the fried rice it was flavorful but barely any meat, mostly rice and veggies. Extremely disappointed. Don’t waste your money. Will be the first and last time we go there.

I chose this place because of the online pics, proximity to Chelsea piers and some reviews. Our steaks were cold. It felt they were super understaffed since it took a long time to get served. Our drinks took forever to come. The restaurant decor was nice.

Imagine you’re in Cuba ?? and you want to eat in a Chinese Restaurant. That’s exactly this place. Rice and beans. Plantains. Ropa Vieja Lo Mein. All tastes great. Latin music ? playing all the time. Nice staff. Moderately clean facilities. Manhattan prices so bring your credit cards ?. Great for date night. We will definitely be going back.

I went to Calle Dao with three friends on a Friday night, and the experience was fantastic. The atmosphere was perfect, and the location felt like a hidden gem. Our cocktails were excellent—I highly recommend the Max Ver—and the crispy pork belly appetizer was out of this world, as was the grilled shrimp with garlic mojo. For my entrée, I had the Ropa Vieja Noodles, and the roasted brisket had some of the best flavor I've ever had—I'm still thinking about it! The black rice seafood paella was another standout. The flavors were excellent, the staff incredibly kind, and I can't wait to go back!

We had the restaurant week menu, which was a great way to try some of the most popular dishes, including cuban egg rolls and fried rice. 4.75 stars for the food overall. Excellent service!

Tiny portions, friend was served the wrong dish—she is a vegetarian and received meat
Everything here was amazing, the wontons, the noodles, the chicken & rice, the drinks, literally everything was great. Made our date night special and one to remember.

The food here was off the hook. It's not just your typical Cubano y Chinese. Every dish we had was elevated. From the make your own Bao, Picadillo Balls, Grilled l Lobster Asian Noodles, Chimichurri Flank Steak and dessert. Service was impeccable and I enjoyed my time with the bartender who was prepping their signature Habanero Vodka as I waited for my dinner companion. I love food and it was clear that the Chef here does too. ❤️

The restaurant had a great blend of Cuban and Chinese decor, creating a unique atmosphere. The food was delicious, with standout dishes like the Cuban fried rice and perfectly cooked sweet plantains. The molten lava cake was rich and decadent, and the build-your-own buns with pork belly were a must-try. The $45 three-course dinner during restaurant week was a great deal. The service was excellent, with attentive and friendly staff ensuring a great dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning to try more of their tasty offerings.
