Annie AdamsJune 16, 2011I could live off their skirt steak with chimmichurri sauce... Best I've had!
Chad LewisJuly 8, 2017The service is despicable. Someone threw up next to our table, the manager offered to take the meals off our hill and 5 minutes later claimed she had no idea what happened
Match ThisflyMarch 27, 2015Waiter was lovely. Manager informed us that we could only split the bill between 2 credit cards! No sign posted about this rule, and our party wasn't alerted beforehand. A bit rude.
Mark FrizzellJuly 16, 2010Ate half the appetizers for dinner, one of the best meals I've ever had, must eat here more!
Just had Huevos de las cabanas... Amazing! Love the owners/hosts here too!
Brittney JacksonSeptember 14, 2014Almost forgot. Food is decent but they treat you like a criminal if you get unlimited brunch. Never coming back.
AditiApril 18, 2016Okay I come here to drink not eat. My steak was cold so no Bueno but I can survive on their black beans alone (how are they so good?!)
Larry LJuly 29, 2016They refused to accept an expired groupon until after 6pm. I called groupon; they said there is no restriction. I offered to let the restaurant speak to Groupon, but they just got nasty. How terrible.
Lauren SteinkeDecember 15, 2013Food is ok. Brunch deal is pretty good, but the options for drinks are sugary pitchers. Got drunk, but not drunk enough. Service was slow and rude.
Giselle ValdezMay 10, 2014Don't go to brunch here if you're actually hungry! Very small entrees. Too small if your having unlimited drinks.
Ok seriously, the BEST beans and rice EVER. so simple, yet so perfect.
jenni robinsonMarch 2, 2010During the day, sip on some cuban coffee. Its so awesome, its like crack.
TeresaAugust 4, 2014Terrible service for brunch. Took them 30+ min to bring out my mediocre grilled shrimp salad. I would rather go to the Cardinal just a couple blocks away.
JulianaApril 25, 2017DRINKS - Bottomless brunch had a good selection, mimosa, margheritta, bloody mary and etc, but glasses are not clean, just refilled, the glasses that you drink and the bottles
Lloyd MJuly 19, 2014Worst service ever. Over an hour & 1/2 for food. The drink carafes were not refilled in a timely manner. Never coming here again.
Lisa SOctober 27, 2011Don't do parties with more than 6+ they absolutely screw you. Food is fine but honestly? Honor your patrons.
- JulianaApril 25, 2017AMBIANCE - Super tinny, super packed, LOUD, very lound, music was terrible (very loud EDM - isnt this a cuban restaurant?) and tables are all shared between random people
- JulianaApril 25, 2017SERVICE - I understand it was brunch, busy saturday, but still we waited 45 minutes when the hostess said would be 5, and did not even came back to check on us.
- JulianaApril 25, 2017(Cont)SERVICE - After eating after only 1.5 hours (which was the limit of the bottomless) brunch we got "invited to leave" because they ha md another party coming.
- JulianaApril 25, 2017FOOD - Terrible. Looks like a TV Diner, has no real taste, had hair in 2 of the 4 plates we ordered, poached egg is not even poached, steak not cooked.
