It's so sad to notice the quality of this local hometown favorite drop so drastically. While the…read moreservers , waiters were kind and welcoming the food was just truly disappointing. My family and I used to order form here weekly and it was truly like a reminiscing moment for us of our grandmas old cooking. But the last two times we have come we are so disgusted with the food. Our daughter's palomilla legitimately tasted and looked like lab grown engineered meat. There was no taste, color or consistency of in bistec de palomilla. It was so weird to see the this on the plate. Honestly. The chicken vaca frita is our family favorite. This was good. They put like an entire onion topped on top to hide the very small amount of chicken actually served. But taste and consistency were solid to their original serving. We are so saddened by the regression of this restaurant. This was always our favorite place to have a taste of home. I hope that management realizes that while I'm certain food costs are high - that quality and the experience of the customer matter too. Unfortunately we will be divorcing Casavana and going back to Las Vegas and Latin America.

The waitress, the food, the ambiance, the temperature of the food, the crowd, all can contribute to your experience on any given day. Overall, if you're Cuban, you know the food is consistently good and reasonably priced. If you're not Cuban, you will always have complainers saying it's not like they're country. Daily specials, great soups/stews, meat, chicken, fish, all available. Sandwiches are LEGIT! You will always see local cops in there, families, groups. Lechón asado (shredded roasted pork) with onions, yuca, black rice with black beans (congri), is my favorite plate. Got to have a shot of Cuban coffee to close out the meal. Almost forgot dessert, flan, rice pudding, tres leches, variety of shakes. Great family restaurant!

Recently went to "El Novillo" restaurant for a 25 year anniversary celebration…read more It was a group of about 25 of us and it was spacious in the seating and table arrangement for all of us to feel comfortable and not cramped up together. It was on a Friday night and they had live music playing with was nice for the occasion. With our pre-selected menu, we ordered a glass of Cabernet, their house salad (very vinegary!!! A tad bit too much in my personal opinion), and for entree the 8 oz baby tenderloin churrasco. (Shout out to one of our waiters! I didn't catch her name but she was honest with the menu recommendations and advised us to order the baby tenderloin churrasco which was a hit!). The mariquitas kept on coming around the table and we were stuffed. Another perk was how fast the service was. Even with our large group, we barely waited in between courses. If you want good Hispanic food on the fly, this is your place.

Though they have a preset menu for corporate type events, our boss was generous enough to let us select off the open menu. The decor is made to look like the inside of a hacienda with the tile roofs and stucco columns (yes you tell I'm a structural engineer :) The music was mostly 80s ballads, and service was very attentive. They even brought one of the desserts with a candle for a colleague's birthday, and took our group's photo. We started with a couple of baskets of buttered herbed Cuban bread and dipping chimichurri, as well as an appetizer sampler including refried beans, fried cheese and tequenos. The fried cheese was served on a little piece of pita bread and is a must try. I also enjoyed the refried bean soup, especially when dipped with plantain chips. As far as my main course, everyone knows how much I love cows! I enjoyed a sizable piece of churrasco, juicy even at medium well, sweet plantains and moros (here they serve it with red beans instead of black beans) and crispy house-made plantain chips. The Tres leches was also very fluffy, with a lot of cream and perfect enough to send me to a nice little after lunch nap. I also washed it down with Cortadito.

Su aroma, los detalles pintorescos --donde la madre patria respira en cada rincón-- y los platos servidos con amor hicieron temblar los recuerdos hasta humedecerme la mirada. España no es solo un lugar que visité; es un latido, el más intenso de mi vida. En Madrid escuché por primera vez el corazón de mi hija, ese sonido sagrado que hizo brotar mis lágrimas y que me volvió la mujer más eterna. Saber que fue concebida allá convierte a esa tierra en un territorio íntimo, donde la vida se escribió dentro de mí. Y, como si el universo quisiera guiñarme un ojo, apareció Yusnier, quien nos atendió con suma gentileza y profesionalidad, interesado en "Complicidad Desnuda", mi segundo libro. Lo grabé y fotografié, porque hay encuentros que merecen quedarse. Disfruto el arte culinario español como pocos. Así como alimenta mi cuerpo, lo hace también con la memoria, la nostalgia y el deseo del regreso. Gracias al restaurante "El Pimiento". Gracias, España, que me susurras al oído. Gracias a quienes creen en mis letras. Hoy me siento profundamente feliz, plena y absoluta con lo que soy: una autora libre, que escribe lo que quiere y como quiere, sensible, erótica y fiel a su "Complicidad". Laidy Pérez Escritora

Food was good, and we both had food left over. All in all, for a quick, impromptu lunch post workout this was great. I'll definitely plan to go again if I'm in the area around lunch time again.

When I first walked in, I was greeted by one of the servers. She spoke to me in Spanish and based on my response to her question, quickly switched to English. She sat me at a two-top. At first glance of the restaurant, it was decent size. They were doing construction around the entrance where the bar was, so it kind of took away from the appeal. While I've never commented on this before, I noticed my water and wine glass were so streaky. They weren't see through like usual but def. could have been cleaned/rinsed more. After being sat, I was given water and some focaccia crackers. While I loved the idea, the crackers were impossible to "dip" and made the oil pointless. For drinks, I went with the passionfruit margarita. They had a few cocktails to choose from, but this has been my go-to as of late. It was pretty good but nothing to write home about. As a starter, I went with the Cuban Caesar and for my main, I chose the pesto pasta and added chicken. The Cuban Caesar was easily one of the best I've had! I loved that it came in a Parmesan bowl and the yuca croutons were different but good! The croutons were a weird contrast because the salad was so cold and then you have these hot pillowy croutons with a weird texture. Regardless, I give the salad a 10/10. The pesto pasta was great; super rich but unfortunately, not much else. The chicken didn't have any seasoning and I almost wish I hadn't paid an additional $6 for it. The service was great and although they weren't that busy, I still believe it would have have still been good. Overall, I had a great time here and I may come back next time I'm in town.
