Loved the vibe, location, music, and food was good. The tostones were different than what I am use to. Normally I eat tostones with a mango salsa but they had Picodillo on top, I personally wasn’t a fan of this. The guacamole and chips were good, white rice was good, black beans were good, and plátanos.I just wasn’t a fan of the Picodillo, I wouldn’t get this dish again.Great music and beautiful atmosphere.The frescas aquas were amazing! Would highly recommend!

I love this place! You order at the register then sit down and you get an electric buzzer. You do bus your own table at the end.I love the fish tacos so much I haven't really gotten to try the rest of the menu. I have no complaints! Fish tacos and a margarita and I've got a big smile on my face!!! Def give this place a try.

The food is good. They have counter service and bus-your own... So dirty plates abound on the tables, which feels kinda shabby. 2 tacos and a Pacifico bottle was $17. They do offer a vegetarian taco that is pretty good. The staff was friendlyish. There are a few bottles of hotsauce floating around, but no salsa to be had

Fish tacos are the best. Not 5 stars because they could improve on the portions they serve.

Awesome Latin eatery! The interior is colorful, unique and vibrant but still casual and comfortable. CARNE ASADA $3.85 Steak, chipotle, onions, cabbage slaw, baja crema A nice tasty meaty taco...I just wish it was a little bit larger, its street taco sized. I could probably eat 12 of these on hangry day. CHICHARRON DE POLLO $13.65 Crispy pieces of free range chicken thighs topped with salsa criolla served with rice & pinto or black beans, organic salad and sweet potatoes. One of their signature dishes! Fried chicken nuggets that are kinda like Japanese Karaage, but that's a terrible analogy. The creamy mustard like sauce is amazing. Awesome dish, just with the portion was a bit large.

Best carnitas tacos!I had the perfect plantain chips with that sauce that is so delicious and the tostones were pretty good too the greatest combination of Mexican and Cuban Street food.

The fish tacos are amazing! They are light and crispy. We also shared some plantains and yucca fries for the center. My wife is vegan and gluten free and had great tofu tacos.Highly recommended!!

So so good!! Ate all the food before I could take a picture. Had the pescado frito - HIGHLY recommend. As well as the yuca fries and margarita. Everything is made in home. Prices are far, but a bit annoying that you have to pay for tortillas (which are from a packet) especially for authentic dishes.

Amazing food and I love their sangria. If you haven't eaten here, try the tostones con picadillo, the fried yucca and plantains. We enjoyed their sandwiches too - the papito and cubano. Honestly everything in their menu is tasty. Great ambiance too!

cholita linda is a current favourite of mine. the portion sizes are on the small side, but priced accordingly. the fish tacos are delicious, as is the cubano sandwich. i have liked just about everything i have tried from their menu.i have only gotten takeout here, so i cannot comment on the dine-in service, cleanliness, or restrooms. the staff are cordial enough taking orders and handing out food, though. they also have a self-service ordering kiosk for ordering takeout which is great if you want to minimize your contact with humans.
