    Better that the standard Cuban. Ample menu satisfies all tastes and while one doesn't necessarily go here for the food it's satisfying enough to come back. A welcome add to the Cuban food acne.

    I had the Churrasco and it was awesome. The crackers and spread are amazing before the meal. Place packs up on Sat. Nights. Over an hour wait. Look to the back of the bar and see la Virgin del cobre.

    The food and staff are excellent. If you don't want to eat a full course meal, try the Rumberito along with their Sangrias. Great place to bring the family or a date.

    Awesome tropical and fun atmosphere. Friendly staff. The mango sangria tasted great but was a little weak for my taste. Also I love me some mariquitas. 

    Their sangria is delicious. My friends and I prefer the red. I always get the corn fritters! And definitely get their honey chicken.

    Rabo encendido is really good, almost as good as my mom's. The croquetas are a good appetizer.

    Order the app sampler, its enough for two or three as a meal, pair with the sangria and you wont go wrong.

    Very authentic Cuban cuisine, great ambiance, live Cuban music, top off your meal with awesome flan and what I call an Espressocino. Our Cuban friend took us here.

    If you eat nearby, call in your order for pick-up. This place is just too packed to be able to enjoy your meal.

    Make sure you "confirm" your reservation. Apparently they don't have time to call you and tell you they CANT accommodate you and make you believe you have a reservation. Bad service. Highly upset.
