The food was amazing! I highly recommend the chicken, plantains, and yuca!

On 2/8/2026 stone had this to say:
Found this place on a whim and adored the atmosphere, ordered the lamb and yellow rice with black beans and the food was breathtaking. The lamb fell off of the bone at the slightest touch, the saffron rice and beans were seasoned perfectly. Wonderful experience and staff was lovely :)

On 2/5/2026 Keith Pataluna had this to say:
Fantastic Cuban food at a very reasonable price. I went between lunch and dinner, was able to place a to-go order immediately. Go to the right side of the restaurant just before the bar to order. Choose from several types of rice, meats, and beans/plantains/etc. Yellow rice with brisket is perfect for a teenage boy. Service was wonderful. Very delighted to find this place. They have a Cuban party sometimes on the weekends. Sounds fun!

On 1/29/2026 Eli had this to say:
Good, well seasoned food. I think the best thing I ate was a little fried ball thing with potatoes and met in it. Highly recommend. The stewed beef with potatoes is also incredible. Good amount of food for the price, which currently is $13.99 for a combo.
