Great place with the cigar lounge, what more would you want
S CJanuary 15, 2011If the sangria with berries, blood orange & Granny Smith apples is available, get it
Daphne Liska SaccoFebruary 20, 2011The vegetarian black bean cakes are great! Get them with a mojito.
Everything here is fantastic. Order whatever and get a mojito with it.
Oh man the Masitas dish is awesome. So good. Caramelized onions to boot, FTW!
Warning: they charge for refills of soda. About $2.50 per soda. (Which would be fine... if they tell you that they charge.)
JonesFebruary 4, 2018Masitas pork not good, paella ok, pollo Arroz not good, rum mickey not good, ceviche not good
Natalia PJuly 13, 2014Really bad Cuban food. Extremely spicy. Would not recommend if you're looking for authentic Cuban food
