The service was good, people is nice. But the food was not fresh at all. I'm sure the chicken and the rice was from the day before. The chicken was not even warm enough.

Greatv place to eat ,clean family oriented .. good food. the only flaw I would say, they use to deliver , now they switch to grub hub , and not alot of people use it , or find it more expensive , ? all these other fees added . maybe they should reconsider and bring the delivery man back ..? other then that ,the food is ,Great ..

Poor food expensive food ajiaco soup was so water and condiments .. rabo was so simple ..and also small chicken soup was just water and 1 small potato and 1 piece of carrots no chicken in there..

My boyfriend and I found this place and decided to try it early afternoon. It was terrible. I had a Cuban sandwich that had been sitting in a preserved fridge and was heating in the microwave. My boyfriends chicken tasted old as well. The only thing that was good was the fries. Everything else tasted like it had been sitting in the fridge all week and heated in the microwave. That would explain why I heard the microwave door opening and closing so much. There was no effort put into the food at all. It’s like that gave us the scraps that no one wanted in days.

The new staff are very rude and wont take blame for their own mistakes. i used to eat here 4-5 times a week! Now i tell people to stay away due to how unfriendly & unsanitary it is. There are full grown roaches crawling all over the place!

I’ve been going to this place for over 2 years now and since they changed management they have been getting worse! Food takes forever, terrible customer service and unsanitary practices. I’m done going to this place, and no one should even try it.

Delicious Latin food. Lots of Specials on the Menu too. Staff speaks very little English and use a translation app to provide some services. Friendly and Fast.

They over charged me fo the food i ordered. $4 for a small container of plantains. And the yellow rice is plain fat grains of rice that has a yellow color no flavor. The white rice was old and over cooked. To top it off the don't speak or understand English!

The manager there is horrible nobody there speaks English bad service and if you do talk to them in Spanish they act like they don't understand people just go to rumbas

The food was good but the wait the wait was very long one hour to get our food but it was but it was worth the wait
