Here is why: This gem is a small little restaurant with approximately 10 tables of twos and 7 bar tools with a 50 inch TV on the wall, but don't worry they have background music and dimmed lights. Cozy and lovely. The food is incredibly tasty and they serve good portions. I came in two days ago and couldn't finish my fish ceviche. Today I worked an appetite after going to the beach. Water is served in nice wine cups, classy. I had yuca a la huancaina which is fried cassava with a cheesy sauce. I left some for my tostones. I had the best pollo a la francesa. Slightly breaded two pieces of breast chicken, cooked in butter and lime. Check out the picture. My wife had a lomo salteado in tallarines (pasta, beef, roasted tomatoe and fried) they also have it in green pasta or rice which is the traditional Peruvian lomo. The side of malanga we ordered is usually one scope, not here. It was 3 big ones and tasty. My kid loved it. For dessert, capricho. I would do it all over again. What a taste and service. They will see me often. In closing, I left 30 percent tips.

This place is the only restaurant in the plaza however serves the best food. Even though I only…read morehave the grilled chicken attached to this review the ceviche and appetizers are amazing. They serve you bread with a vegetable oil spread that I can't say is the best tasting but the food tops it all. Comparing their food to el rinconcito it is better tasting, however the portion is a bit smaller. They serve you water in nice wine cups so you feel classy. To conclude, the main manager there is great and she is always making sure everyone is taken care of. This is a good place to stop in and try out if you've gotten tired of Mojitos, el Riconcito, and the other neighboring restaurants. (Pricing is great for the food)

The waiting staff was attentive and constantly served us water and checked in on us. We had corvina, tallarin verde (green spaghetti with salmon), and lono saltado rissoto.

I will be reviewing my overall experience of a recent visit I took at this establishment…read more First impression, the establishment is well decorated ; while not as upscale/fine (eg no table cloth ) it still had nice table decorating. I would say a few steps above your average steakhouse/mom and pop diner, and 1 below Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Food: The dinner rolls where warm, fluffy and fresh. lomo saltado : the fried where extra crispy rice was nice and fluffy the meat was tender and perfectly season and cooked. The sauce was a bit concentrated or over reduced. It was a very strong flavor, not necessarily bad but just a note. Risotto lomo salvaje: Risotto has great texture and flavors sauce was a bit over reduce like in the prior dish. The service was great, always paying attention to detail and water levels. They also took our left overs to the back and packed them themselves! There was one small con: the aromas. I'm not sure if it was from the cigar shop next door or something else like incense or candle aromatic, while my nose mead able to tune it out within a few minutes, my pregnant wife was not able to. The staff did take notice and came to ask if everything was ok , as they noticed her covering the nose, we said yes as we thought it was just the cigar store. It wasn't until we rode home we noticed we had that smell on us. Also another note: gratuity was auto included. However they make it better clear in the receipt with a huge red stamp that it is included and the host also reminded when she brought the terminal to pay. Honestly they deserved that gratuity for the type of service they provide , and should not be challenged or argue against as it was excellent

Despite reading several negative reviews, I decided to give this longtime Cuban restaurant another…read moretry. What a mistake. I was absolutely shocked by how far this place has fallen. The portions were downright insulting. The serving of meat wasn't enough to satisfy one adult, and the side of fufú was so ridiculously small it looked like it was meant for a starving child. Another disappointment was the onion soup. It was loaded with layers of what appeared to be old, stale Cuban bread that tasted like it had been recycled from previous meals. It was inedible. Charging $29.85 for this is so wrong and just outrageous! This restaurant may be living off its reputation from years ago, but the food, portions, and value no longer justify it. It's incredibly disappointing to see a once-beloved establishment sink to this level. There are far too many excellent Cuban restaurants in Miami to waste your time and money here.

This restaurant went from a stellar Cuban restaurant to a "what happened to it?"…read more.. Overall Food -- Was cold, insipid, and had to be taken back for further cooking. Ordered: *The chicken paella -- It was drenched in oil and water. When asked the server to take it back to cook a bit more, he told me that that the dish came as is. As oppose to just accepting my request, I needed to hear how I was erroneous on my decision. *Garbanzos -- Cold, unsavory, and hard. *Flan -- How can one go wrong with flan? -- Plenty! Not enough consistency, sugar or taste. What was a staple of a dessert for this restaurant became an ordering disaster. *Cuban coffee -- Asked with sugar came without it and cold. Service -- Inattentive and only when summoned. The server, along with the manager on duty and other servers, were very busy entertaining and speaking with a teenage couple that sat in a corner of the restaurant. The manager sat along with them and it seemed that this couple was his top priority and not the restaurant. Our server did the same. It was after we paid the bill that the manager came to see how our dining experience was; and after we mentioned how horrible everything was, he told us that we should have called on him then. But I figured, if he would not have been busy entertaining this young couple and walked by each table, then, this would not have been an issue. Ambiance -- It was filled with high schoolers making noise and being disruptive which, in the past, this restaurant was known for its quiet and pleasant atmosphere. More to add -- For a Saturday night [prime hours], the place was pretty empty, which should have given me a clue on what was to come. Overall, whoever is in charge of this location, should be re-evaluated. I won't be coming back. It was simply not worth the aggravation and money.
