They don't have a waitlist though so you just kinda gotta wait and it's first come first serve. We sat at the bar and just snatched a table when we saw someone leave. If you come here you should DEFINITELY get a mojito! They're HUGE and delicious and STRONG. My friends (who don't drink alcohol much) had a couple sips and were gone we had to walk around the square after to sober up! I got the ropa vieja and thought it was delicious! The beef was super flavorful and tender. I was a bit disappointed that they only gave two tiny plantain slices cause it was good and I wanted more. The rice and beans were pretty average, the beans were extremely plain, definitely could've been better. I would definitely come back to try a Cubano though since that's what they're known for and my friend who got one almost melted when she took a bite cause it was so delicious (I took a bite too and it really was very good!). Definitely recommend this place! I will say the service is a bit slow because it was packed but servers were very nice!

The flavor... the experience... the family... wow. After I ate here once I decided to have them cater a huge event for my husband. I showed up and was greeted with graciousness and kindness. They worked to ensure that I ordered exactly what I needed for my event. When we picked up they went out of their way to ensure that we had what we needed in the way we needed it. Everything tasted heavenly and we have recommended them to so many peers! We will be back as often as my waistline allows!!

Seems to be a small operation with one or two cooks in the back along with the lady manning the front desk.

Was rather disappointed that they only had fried yuca that day and not the steamed version but maybe they'll have it in the future, easy to see myself coming back especially since I'm curious about the Cuban sandwich now.

It was a ten minute walk for me to the restaurant and was pleasantly surprised to find my food was already ready for pickup when I arrived. I ordered the Ropa Vieja entree with maduros, rice and black beans, the yuca con mojo starter, and guava empanadas. The portion sizes were generous, filling, and reasonably priced. My highlights were the perfectly caramelized maduros and the boldly flavorful yuca con mojo. I was too full to eat the empanadas, so I had to eat them for breakfast the next morning and they were still crispy with the perfect balance of guava and cream cheese filling. I'll definitely return next time in town.

And, despite opening later than listed (11:10/15 vs 11:00), the food was worth waiting for. Now, my friend had planned on getting the Tamale plate, but they had taken it off the menu, as the person who made them, passed away. :-( So, we both ordered a traditional Cuban sandwich! And, I must say, it's the best Cuban sandwich that I've ever had (10 Stars)!! And, a first where they used chopped beef. I also ordered to go, Carnitas - Cuban style for tonight's dinner. But , they didn't open as posted, are no longer serving Tamales (though, a large order {2-3 dozen} can be placed 2 weeks ahead of the needed time), and the Chips and Salsa are ala cart. Even though we had to wait, a waitress was kind enough to step around the corner to let us know that they were open. And, the owner chatted with us for several minutes. Cuban style Pork Carnitas, with Rice, Cuban Black Beans, Fried Plantains, and Cooked Yucca Dinner: WOW!!! Though, I still had had the Cooked Yucca, everything was excellent! The only way it could have been better, is to have some Cuban bread. While I don't know when I'll be able to get here again, I definitely want to try their other dishes.
