    Brie appetizer
    Ahmed A.

    Excellent food and excellent service. Came in here to celebrate a birthday and I liked the little "Happy Birthday" note card that they had already placed on the table. All the staff was very friendly too! We started with the egg roll and the Brie and both were very good! I liked the meat filling mix in the egg roll, though the glaze with pineapples with it was a little too sweet for my liking. The Brie baked inside of the pastry shell was exquisite! We had steaks for the entrees and the NY strip did not disappoint whatsoever! Perfectly salted and cooked, and the potatoes were a nice complement to it. Since it was a birthday celebration, they surprised us with a slice of chocolate cake that was a great ending to the meal. Great fine dining experience in the area!

    Food was super yummy, it does cost a pretty penny but they give you bread! I went for a b day and so they gave me free cake!

    This beef was very tender, the roasted garlic was exquisite and I choose this every time even though everything is amazing.

    The beef was tender, the roasted garlic was delicious and I am looking forward to trying everything on the menu.

    We were in town for the week visiting and decided to try CuiZine based on a recommendation from friends--and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The food was phenomenal from start to finish, with every course thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. Our server, Delores, was outstanding giving great advice about the entrees, desserts and cocktails. The four of us began with a round of appetizers, ordering six to share so we could sample as much as possible. The hydroponic wedge salad and organic heritage salad were fresh and well-balanced, a great way to start. The filet egg rolls were a standout--crispy on the outside with a tender, warm filet center, accompanied by a sweet-spicy salsa that added just the right kick and contrast. The artichokes were grilled to perfection, and the baked onion soup was a rich, comforting highlight--hands down the best I've ever had, with layers of flavor and perfectly melted cheese on top. For our entrées, each dish was as impressive as the appetizers: * The Pistachio-Crusted Australian Lamb Chops were oven-roasted and served rare, just as requested. They were flavorful and incredibly tender, served with silky French whipped potatoes and finished with a rich port wine lamb reduction that brought everything together beautifully. * The Cast Iron 14 oz. Parmesan-Crusted Veal Chop was a showstopper--juicy and thick-cut with a golden parmesan crust. It sat atop a creamy and earthy porcini mushroom risotto, all tied together with a luscious veal demi-glace. A luxurious and hearty dish done right. * The Miso-Glazed Sea Bass was delicate and perfectly cooked, flaking apart effortlessly. The glaze was subtly sweet and savory, complementing the fish without overpowering it. It was served over fragrant basmati rice with ginger ponzu for a flavorful twist, alongside tender, grilled baby bok choy that added a fresh, vibrant crunch. The only downside of the night came from the cocktail menu. While strong, most drinks leaned too far into intensity without balance. The Old Fashioned made with High West Double Rye tasted watered-down and lacked character. The Empress gin cocktail was overly heavy on the gin, making it hard to enjoy. The Limoncello martini and French 75 were both bright and refreshing, and the Espresso martini had potential but wasn't quite smooth enough. Despite the uneven cocktails, the food and overall experience at CuiZine were exceptional. From thoughtfully curated small plates to expertly executed entrées, this restaurant is a must-visit. We'll absolutely return the next time we're in town. One suggestion to elevate the cocktail experience would be to collaborate with local distilleries such as 21st Amendment and Oceanside Distillery. Both are known for crafting high-quality spirits and have developed fantastic signature cocktails. Featuring locally made products could enhance the bar program while supporting other local businesses--and give guests a unique taste of the region's craft distilling scene.

    Ribeye with fois gras foam. To. Die. For.

    Have eaten here several times since my first review and have never been disappointed! The food is excellent - from offerings, to recipes, to presentation. Gorgeous food. They always have a great bartender that pours a correct and tasty old fashion. I have never had even a hint of bad service there, despite regularly having a different server at each visit. We LOVED the violinist on Friday night! Was a great addition to the atmosphere. Non-obtrusive but present. They have different specials all the time, so it's find that the menu is pretty stable (though I have seen changes since my original visit). One or both of us usually get the special and we've never been disappointed. Fois gras foam topped ribeye? Don't mind if I do!

    TL;DR: A+ escargot, crab soup, steaks, chocolate cake - all phenomenal. Go. Soon. I've been wanting to go for a long time and we finally had the opportunity. From the moment we walked in, I knew this was going to be an experience. We were led through the dimly lit bar where a lovely blonde perched next to a white piano singing slow and sultry songs. The music made for the perfect background. Seriously, it was a classy joint. Service was spot on though sometimes I felt like my indecision was going to send the server into hysterics. She was nice though once she warmed up to our awkwardness. The escargot was excellent. The liquid left over was so good we could have taken the escargot plate and drank directly from it. We settled on using bread to sop it up. The Man said it was the best escargot he's ever had. We both had the "Amazing Crab Soup". They bring the bowls, then they put a large amount of crab in the bowls and THEN they pour base in which was much like a bisque. I've been privy to this type of presentation at some fine restaurants. I get the same level of childlike glee from Caesar salad being prepared table side. There was so much crab! It was a tad too spicy for me but anything with two additional grains of pepper added is too spicy for me. My partner ate both servings. Our entrees came and they were so beautiful. They looked like pictures you see in food magazines. I had the filet mignon. You could ALMOST cut it with a fork. I'm a sauce girl (and saucy) so I usually have sour cream and horseradish to make my own horseradish sauce. It goes on meat and veggies and potatoes and even fish. I ordered Béarnaise sauce but didn't even need it. That's how good it was. The sauce was a little cold anyway. The man got the special 30-day (28?) dry aged New York Strip. The chef came out and sliced fresh truffles on top. It was delish. It takes a lot to impress The Man food-wise and I think this was a win. It was my partner's birthday and they brought out a complimentary slice of some sort of chocolate cake with hibiscus dust misted delicately across the plate. She was sly, too. There was no noisy singing, no big show...she practically slipped it onto the table without us even noticing. It was, of course, beyond delish. The Man TOOK LEFTOVERS HOME!!!! He never does that. It means it was a gastronomic masterpiece. The end.

    Sea Bass on risotto and asparagus
    Holly D.

    We made reservations here for my birthday last month and it was fantastic! We frequent the HappyHour but I wanted the full experience and I was not dissappointed. I already knew I wanted the Sea Bass and hubby ordered the steak. My fish was delicate and perfectly cooked. Risotto was creamy and smooth and asparagus just tender enough. I had never had foie gras so I splurged and also took out servers recommendation for the accompanying liquer. It was a no brainer for Me when bread pudding was offered as a dessert option. The feeling inside the restaurant is cozy yet opulent at the same time. I cannot say enough good things about this fabulous place.

    2nd time here, added both 1st time visit and 2nd time visit photos…read more To start, the lobster bique is unmatched. Its very light while still creamy, very lobster forward and you know it because its right on top. Both times we went with the seafood lovers and its as it says for seafood LOVERS. Fresh. Fresh. Fresh. Shrimp, crab, lobster, fresh and cooked to perfection. On the bottom, an immaculate garlic butter with a slight spice (of you ask for spicy) and on top is like an oreganata. This may be our choice every single time, I cant go without it! My son gets his chicken tenders amd fries. Dad tax is a must because the fries are crispy and well made.

Seating was available inside and outside. We opted to sit inside but needed a jacket because it was pretty chilly. It must have been a popular spot to celebrate Valentines' day- to our disappointment they were out of some of the dishes we were interested in trying. We opted for the crab cake, which was good with very little filler. The Fisherman's Bounty Platter ($30) came with shrimp, fish bites, oysters, and sea scallops along with fries and coleslaw. Since they were out of oysters, they substituted with extra shrimp and the hush puppies were substituted for extra coleslaw instead. The portion size was good for the price. The fish bites were a combo of snapper and grouper. I didn't know which one I had, but I preferred one over the other. I did think the seafood could have used more seasoning. We really liked the coleslaw. The food was okay, it satisfied my hunger.

The restaurant is currently being renovated, and it's already looking really good! Our waitress, Barbara, was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I started with a mojito, and WOW--it was honestly one of the best mojitos I've ever had! So refreshing and smooth that you barely taste the rum, but watch out... it can smack you in the back of the head! For dinner, I ordered the ropa vieja because I had been craving it so badly, and boy, did I find the right place to satisfy that craving! The meat was incredibly tender and juicy, with that rich, tomatoey sauce I had been looking for. It was absolutely delicious. My husband, of course, ordered the Cuban sandwich, and he absolutely loved it. The pork was so juicy and moist, and the bread was incredibly fresh and delicious. Then Barbara came by and told me about the $10 pomegranate martini special. Obviously, I had to try it--and that was delicious too! Overall, 10/10 experience. Great service, amazing drinks, and delicious, authentic-tasting food. We left very happy and will definitely be back. I super highly recommend Cuban Island!
