Ana MontesMay 13, 2012Have the "frita cubana" burger. Dont ask any questions. jUST eat it. Youll thank me
The Cubano is delicious- I think it's a sign of good luck when my bill here came to $11.11 on 11/11/11.
Matthew MillerMarch 1, 2013This place is like the Spanish Alexis dinner on crack. Music makes you drink all night !!
Roniel TesslerFebruary 3, 2019With all the hype, our sandwiches were a bit bland. The plantain empanadas are a standout!
Louis VDecember 1, 2011This is Cuban on name only. They have some Cuban dishes, but they taste more like Mexican or South American dishes because they add Jalapeños or other hot ingredients. Cuban food is not hot.
Great place, great service. The white sangria is delicious!
Try the Churrasco & Short Rib - Today's special, another winner @ChefMedinaNYC! Like Butta.
Akiko BombitaSeptember 6, 2016I did not enjoy my experience here. I could not get a side of maduros unless I ordered an entree and our table was charged gratuity even though we weren't supposed to be.
- Try the Lomo Saltado with the choc. bread pudding for dessert.
New York PRJuly 5, 2019I don’t know how this place is rated so highly. My fish tacos were so fishy I could not eat them and the frozen margarita gave me a terrible headache.
