The Latin Pig Cuban Restaurant

Definitely has the vibe of a typical, authentic Cuban restaurant. The food and service were excellent and the owner, Luis, was very personable and made the visit an even more enjoyable experience. His wife was busy preparing meals in the kitchen, the Cuban way! Photographs of Cuba on the wall and salsa music playing in the background set the tone for this Cuban experience. Without question, this was one of the best options for authentic Cuban food I have tried in the Dallas area. I will be back!

I had the pleasure of dining at this Cuban restaurant, and I must say, the experience was truly unforgettable. The food was absolutely delicious - every bite brought back warm memories of home. From the perfectly seasoned dishes to the authentic flavors, it felt like being back in Cuba, sharing a meal with family.

What made it even more special was the service. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, treating us not just as customers but like old friends. Their warmth and hospitality made the whole experience even more meaningful.

If you're looking for a place that serves amazing Cuban food and makes you feel at home, this is it. Highly recommended!

9/10 The ambiance was set perfectly with pictures, paintings, and other Cuban elements. The food was delicious and was brought out very quickly, despite the restaurant being full of guests. The host was friendly, informative, and set a welcoming tone. We ordered the Cubano, which was perfectly balanced with the ideal amounts of each signature ingredient, Yucca Frita, which was carefully finished with flaky salt, Tostones Rellenos, which were served in a pair and the plantain cups were delicately flaky and carrying a rather large serving of tender delicious brisket, Guandules (yellow rice) which was cooked with pigeon peas and sofrito which gave it much more flavor than plain rice. I would reccomended all of the dishes, but the Cubano and the Tostones Rellenos stood out for sure. I doubt you could go wrong ordering anything here, though! We will definitely be back to try more dishes and leave room for desserts next time.

This is exactly the place I’ve been looking for. I’ve searched Cuban restaurants before and found the results to be too vague, listing all types of Latin cuisine but mostly Tex-Mex.
I passed by The Latin Pig while running errands and was drawn to it. Despite having other things to do I went inside and was so excited by what I found! The interior was vibrant with sky blue high backed booths, cultural art on warm toned walls and the sound of Latin American music washed over me, somehow both mellow and upbeat at the same time.
The man who greeted me engaged in conversation with me about the restaurant, which he informed me had been going strong for thirteen years.
I asked if he was the boss and he said “when my wife is not here.” I found that so charming.
We started talking about the menu and he asked me if I’d ever had a Cuban sandwich. I told him I had always wanted to try a Cubano but was deterred by many of its main ingredients (pork, mustard, pickle) being things I don’t like. He told me they make their pickles in house so they don’t have the overwhelming sour flavor I would be used to. I decided to go for it. Did not regret that decision one bit!
The sandwich came out with cheese oozing out the sides. The pork was tender and pink. The bread had a perfectly toasted exterior crust that made each bite both crunchy and soft at the same time. I hardly noticed the pickles. They really aren’t like American pickles. They have subtle flavor that complement the rest of the flavors, not overpower them. When I ordered this Cubano I intended to give half to my boyfriend. By halfway through the first half I determined I couldn’t share what was left and had to order a separate Cubano to bring home to him.
I had only tried one Cubano before this but from a regular restaurant, not a Cuban restaurant. I always suspected that if I tasted an authentic one it would be a beautiful experience and this turned out to be true. Guys, do not sleep on this hidden gem. Being your friends, bring your girlgriend or boyfriend. Go on a quiet Tuesday for a little something special. Try something you haven’t tried before. Five stars.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently dined at The Latin Pig, Cuban Cuisine, and it was an incredible experience that transported me straight to Cuba!

For starters, the Arroz Congri was perfectly seasoned, combining black beans and rice in a delightful harmony of flavors. The Arroz con Gandules was equally impressive, bursting with the rich, savory taste of pigeon peas that paired wonderfully with the tender rice.

The main dishes were the stars of the show! The Ropa Vieja was stunning—slow-cooked beef with vibrant spices that practically melted in my mouth. The Picadillo offered a comforting blend of ground beef, olives, and spices.

The Fried Plantain just how it’s supposed to be cooked, and for the sweet tooth the Coconut Flan and Vanilla Flan, creamy and sweet!

And to top it off, the service, warm and welcoming! I could’ve given 50 stars if I could!!!
