Toria 💜July 13, 2012Overall food was great!! Snapper was a little dry and skirt steak was a little under cooked, but both delicious! Coconut flan was delicious!
ginamarieAugust 4, 2014BYOB... And they'll make you sangria! Try the mango chicken and finish your meal with a piece of tres leches cake... It's to die for!!

Rick DavisSeptember 9, 2011Simple, laid back decor. Try one of their steaks - always juicy and tender.
Mildred PSeptember 22, 2010Delicious food! Didn't care too much for the lechon asado, but the mofongo dishes are amazing!
Jorge TovarAugust 10, 2014Overall the Cuban food was average. Service was friendly but slow. Colombian coffee was good though
Tee JimenezMarch 15, 2013Their food is okay, the service is okay, I don't really care about the decor! I care more about the taste & the quality of the food, and I wasn't all that impressed.
- The sangria was amazing! Then some tea after dinner is great.
