Cuban Restaurants in New York, NY

“Authentic as it can be. The food is excellent. The music was awesome and service was good. It was a little hot but the mojitos made up for it“

“The decor at Victors Cafe was absolutely stunning! I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and classy it felt, with a wonderful tropical vibe. Our waiter was truly phenomenal, constantly checking in on us and being incredibly attentive. And the food and desserts were simply amazing. I highly recommend paying a visit to Victors Cafe for an all-around fantastic experience!“

“Incredible Cubano, excellent frozen margarita 👍🏻“

“Always a good time at Havana Central. Good food, good drinks, good vibe. The servers are always pleasant. Thank you Natalia! This time I remembered my servers name. Lol But that's obvious. My cousin fly in to see a broadway show and of course I had to take her to Havana Central. I am still adjusting to the closure of the Havana Central location in Garden City. Would really love it if they would consider opening another location in the Queens, Long Island area.“

“I ate at this restaurant during my Christmas vacation visit to New York. It is fantastic! The staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is so tasty. It was better than the big advertised restaurants. If you want a real delicious meal and some great music while you eat, go to this place. It's a hidden gem.“

“I've mixed feelings about this place. Everything was good except the food portions. The prices we paid for the amount of food was unacceptable. I ordered Chinese noodles with meat. There were more noodles than meat. I felt like I was fishing for it. It was like a spoon size on it. My friends ordered steak. The portion was smaller than a chicken breast.
Not sure if I would recommend this place. They're are other places that serve good food with good prices and better portions“

“I came to this restaurant for the first time on Saturday, and I completely fell in love with the food. Everything was absolutely delicious. It was so good that I went back again on Sunday brought my mother-in-law with me, and now today, Tuesday, I’m going back again — that’s how amazing it is.
I usually don’t like to only write reviews when something is bad, so I had to make sure I wrote one for this place because they truly deserve it. The food, the flavor, and the overall experience were just incredible.
I recommend this place 1000%. Definitely a must-try!“

“The French toast stuffed with cream cheese and berries was fabulous!“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“Good food, good menu and good waitress“

“First time at Tina's... you know this spot is legit when all the local construction workers eat there too😋😋😋“

“This restaurant has become my go-to recommendation. These employees show remarkable warmth and treat me like a regular. The food delivers flavor satisfaction and portion generosity. Tasty meals, fair costs and employees who really know their job. This place offers dependable satisfaction.“

“My meal at Sophie's Cuban Cuisine - Flatiron showed why people recommend it. The serving sizes here are enormous. Their service creates return customers. This spot maintains fashionable elements and tidiness. This spot earns exceptional recognition.“

“I found this place through instagram and went in person had the sweet chilli wings and two empanadas, amazing! Loved it. Not a fan of the yuca fries they were a bit on the dry side but its always a hit or miss when it comes to Yuca / Yuca fries. The atmosphere was amazing, super clean place seems like a small family business loved seeing that. Truly recommend.“

“A good lunch choice with good flavor. And, so close to Grand Central.

I got the quarter chicken with Garlic Yuca. Their green sauce is so flavorful.

It so happened that my ordering app had an error and ordered 3 of the lunches and they were good enough to cancel the other 2.

Nice service!“

“OMG I was looking for parking outside of Sophie's, to go to a hospital appointment & I was like omg a cuban restaurant I had been craving a good Cubano Sandwich for about 5 yrs so I downloaded app & ordered.. by the time it was ready I found a spot.. it was very reasonably priced especially for Manhattan but most of all it was AMAZING... im literally waiting for my next appointment great food , clean environment & nice people“

“Every time I go to this location it feels like I'm going to my cousin's house! The workers are so friendly and I go so often that it seems they all know my name now lol. I'm just sad Wonder removed my favorite meal from the menu 😩 I will be reaching out to corporate because how dare they!? Lol The zesty Chicken bowl from Yasas is absolute GOLD in the form of food!“

“the food was so good tasty and fast!! the pork was so tender and deliciois!“

“This is a local Chinese/Peruvian food restaurant that gives new meaning to Chinese food! This fusion of flavors is amazing! I’ve had the steak with tostones, their chicharrón de pollo & many other delectable dishes. They also have a nice bar & make excellent Pisco sours which I can’t find in too many places! I live in Rockland County & the hubby & I take the trip about monthly just to eat here! Nothing fancy about the restaurant but definitely good eats! Highly recommend! The hubby &!I will definitely be back! 😋😋😋“

“Absolutely wonderful customer service from all staff. The food is delicious!! By far, the BEST Cuban sandwich that I have ever eaten.“

“I wish I could rate it more than 5 stars. The food tasted like heaven on earth I had the homemade beef empanadas and it was amazing. They gave my friend extra flan and I had one and it was the best thing I had ever had. The service was also very fast and great it did not take long to get the food and everyone was friendly. The atmosphere was ver calm and clean and it was just a amazing experience. If you go to NYC you must try here.“

“Great food, though limited options, especially depending on your selection. For instance, I ordered a small lunch and couldn't get the salmon, which didn't make sense to me. Additionally, you must order at the counter, no table service. Large clean atmosphere that's an adult version of a school-like cafeteria. Best to order an go unless you feel like staying.“

“Awesome!!! Great food!!!!“

“Another fantastic lunch at Sophie's Cuban in Tribeca! The baked chicken entree is my favorite - nicely seasoned, tender, and flavorful. It comes with generous portions of sides that complement the dish beautifully. The casual, welcoming atmosphere makes it a great spot for a quick lunch or leisurely meal. Service is always friendly and efficient. Sophie's continues to deliver authentic Cuban flavors that keep me coming back. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Saw a video online for the breakfast burrito so I went to try it. I got a ice tea, empanada and burrito for 15 dollars the tea wasn't that great the empanada had great flavor and the sauce I was given was delicious the burrito was very small not like I saw in the video. The lady was friendly and they have a few seats if you want to sit there.“

“love the atmosphere food delicious 😋 service is superb 👌 👍“

“Al servicio de todos , y para todos“

“alot of food great staff food seasoned very well!!!!“

“We really enjoyed our dinner and drinks. The red hot sauce is the hottest I’ve tasted!“

“The food here is absolutely delicious — you can really taste the authenticity in every dish. The mojito sauce is out of this world and easily one of the best I’ve ever had. If you’re looking for real Colombian flavor, this is definitely the place.

The only downside is the service; it could definitely be improved. If you don’t speak Spanish, it sometimes feels like you’re a bit of a bother to the staff. It’s not enough to keep me from coming back, but it’s something to be aware of.

Overall, the food makes up for it — just be patient, and you’ll be rewarded with an amazing meal!“
