We were looking for a place to eat for dinner and came across this place. So glad we did. The food was delicious. Great portions for the price- very satisfied and will definitely be back-

We took lunch chicken with peppers and bistek with yellow rice+tostones us guava juice.Over all taste is good and server is helpful to explain about dishes

The pulled pork tasted like barn yard (not cleaned) and the smell wasn't pleasant. The fried pork was good. Yellow rice is like boxed yellow rice. The waitress was super nice but I wouldn't go back.

6 years ago, When I was looking for a house to buy, my friends and I went here for dinner. It was a chicken dish that was so flavorful and delicious that you were glad to have leftovers so you could savor the taste again.When I moved here 5 years ago, something happened and it wasn't good. They no longer made that delicious chicken dish and each menu item I chose, they didn’t have. I decided to give it a few more chances. Each visit was worse than the last. I don't know how it stays open, it's never been full, but it does offer 2 for 1 drinks.Such a shame, I would be eating there every week if they still made that chicken dish.

Horrible service and overcharged. The waitress with dark hair only came to our table to take our order and to bring the bill, she didn’t ask a single time if we needed anything, I had to go up front to order other things and apparently everyone was served bread and butter except us. She also made sure to include a 20% tip for herself on our bill without any specification at all, and we were only 2 adults with our kids. Last time we went to this place we were over charged as well (by the same waitress) I signed for an amount and after checking my bank account the next day noticed they charged an extra $10. Don’t know why I decided to give this place another chance, but not anymore. Definitely will not be recommending anyone to go to a place that over charges and has bad waitresses who obviously do what they please.

Popped in for breakfast. The waitress was very pleasant and inside seemed very clean and had a good atmosphere. However, we just couldn't stay. It was SOOO hot in there and quite uncomfortable. She did offer to turn the air on/up, but still decided to leave, as it would have taken to long to cool down.We'll try it another time.

Best churasco steak I've had. I have visited here at least 8 times before. The serve was alot better which is what was lacking. We got our food a great time. So hopefully they are getting better.Food was very good!

We ordered from this restaurant for the first time & I was skeptical becus of the horrible reviews they have.. my daughter and husband are very picky & they were super satisfied with their food! As was I. Everything was fresh (we ordered an hour before closing) good portions && delicious! 10/10! It’s hard finding delicious authentic Cuban food around here and so happy we found this gem!!

Best Cuban meal I've had! Friendly staff and great prises!

If I could rate this place 10 stars I would! Everything was amazing about this restaurant. The service, the food, the drinks , everything was so good and cheap prices too! My family and I loved it!
