It's nice to get to experience diverse restaurants in Denver. Although this was Cuban food, there was a lot of other Latin inspirations on the menu as well. I got the old Cuban with less simple syrup. At first I thought it was too citrusy as I don't like sweet/sour drinks but after the first sip the prosecco and orange bitters paired so well together and it was refreshing. I also got the steak sandwich with chimichurri on the side. The shoestring fries are fun. It's all on the pricey end but it was a lot of food leftover so it's worth the price!

A great golden triangle dinner date stop!…read more If you haven't had the pleasure of trying Cuba Cuba yet, I highly recommend. I enjoyed a dinner here a few weeks ago and I still think about it. The menu is no fuss, to the ignorant it may be confusing but if you go in with a curious heart, ready to ask the staff questions, you're in for a treat. Based on our servers recommendation, I got the Puerco Frito, and WOW. Every bite was light and flavorful. I've been told that you really can't go wrong with any of the menu items, and based on what I tried, I have to agree with that sentiment. If you are lucky, they'll seat you in this massive room with one wall that's just windows, which makes for an even more relaxing dining experience. Give this place a try!

As a Florida native, I don't order too much Latin food out here. It's not necessarily something I crave anymore. Admittedly, it's tougher to find legit Latin flavors. Well, I was thoroughly impressed with what I tried here! Roasted Pork "Lechon" ($18) // slow roasted berkshire pork shoulder, garlic mojo, pickled onion. This was the most filling bowl of food I've consumed in recent memory. The lechon was tender and flavorful, two ginormous pieces of unctuous, pull apart meat. The tostones were crispy and delicious. Pickled onions balanced the dish, though I was curious with the choice of using rings as opposed to smaller, julienne slices. Rice was yummy, beans just needed some seasoning. Hearty and comforting food right here! It was all so good that I had to stop by the stall later and tell the chef how much I enjoyed it. A little gem right here in Miami...wait...I mean Arvada!!!

Came with a group of 7 on a Wednesday with reservations, got seated right away. We all had cocktails and ordered food, family style to share. Drinks were good and came quick for being 7 cocktails!

For our whole group the whole dinner took under 1.5 hours all in. For our whole group with tons of food and drinks, including tip, we paid around $70/pp which was not too shabby.

The food at Sabor is made on the restaurant's food truck, but ordered and served inside the bustling and lively space just around the corner. I was faced with quite a dilemma upon entering - a good kind, as I couldn't believe how many things looked good on the menu. For example, I could have availed myself of some Ropa Vieja (shredded beef) with hunks of boiled cassava (Yuca) alongside. A nice big hunk of roast pork (Lechon Asado) or, indeed, one of their whole fish preparations also sounded incredibly tasty. But as it turns out, I decided to focus on one their less-discussed specialties, Cuban-style pizza. It arrived in a size perfect for a single diner, with the thick, chewy crust serving as a perfect vehicle for the slabs of moist, zesty chorizo which covered it. I was very impressed, as I also was by two desserts I sampled - a sweet guava-filled pastry and the classic Cuban cheese-curd dessert Dulce de Leche.
