Very clean, fresh food, kid friendly. The ice tea was very good, no aftertaste. They serve a pink sauce and a hot sauce. It wasn't hot to me lol. Free parking, handicap accessible. Plenty of tables but I noticed they had an almost constant flow of takeout orders. Their food is good, but I have had better. I would definitely give Copacabana of Springhill a try. The locals obviously know good, affordable, lots of food locations. Definitely worth the try.

Pretty damn good Cuban sandwich! Maduros fresh, guava slush naturale delish drink. This place is in…read morean odd looking strip mall with a giant sign that says Cuban food. The inside is bare, empty and unassuming. The booths are ripped and tables wearing. Walls are missing paint and it looks like it hasn't been updated since the 80's although these owners have only been there for 4 years. But you just sit back and listen to the Latin music in peace imagining you are in Cuba as you eat. If ambience is what you are looking for, a to go order would be better. If none of that matters, take a seat and enjoy your food hot. Service is fine but I was the only one there If you're in the area make a stop

Super clean, very nice people, and smells delicious!…read more I ordered a Cuban sandwich, flan, and an Arepa with cheese (listed on the Specials board). The Cuban is much smaller compared to other nearby places, but tasted good. The bread was smashed nice, and had nice chew. There wasn't much between the slices, but again, tasted good. It's a nice snack as compared to a lunch. The arepa tasted good, but was more like the first grilled cheese sandwich out of the pan. Very buttery, not very crisp. The cheese was great and melted nicely. Would pair well with tomato soup. The a slice of flan wasn't what I was expecting, but was tasty.

I was so pleased to have a local place for my favorite Spanish-American food, as well as some regular American dishes. Hubby ordered breakfast and I ordered a Caribbean lunch - Pernil (roast pork) with rice and peas, plus a side order of tostones (fried plantains). This is their Tuesday special, and it was delicious bringing back memories of a dear friend's mother who would cook the same food at her NJ bodega. I finished my lunch and couldn't eat another bite, even though homemade flan is available. Next time, which will be very soon!

Three years ago I called Brian's Place a hidden gem. Well...I think the secret is officially out…read more Brian's Place has become one of our go-to restaurants, and after many visits, I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal. That's pretty rare these days. Whether we're stopping in for a nice dinner together or bringing friends from out of town, it's always at the top of our list. The food is consistently excellent. I'm a seafood guy, so that's usually where I end up, especially if there's a fresh catch or one of the specials on the menu. My wife almost always orders something completely different, and neither of us has ever looked across the table wishing we'd ordered the other person's meal. That's a pretty good sign that the kitchen knows what it's doing. The service has been just as consistent as the food. Everyone we've interacted with has been friendly, attentive, and genuinely seems to enjoy what they do. You never feel rushed, but you're also never left wondering where your server disappeared to. It's the kind of service that makes you want to come back. One of the things I appreciate most is that Brian's Place delivers every single time. We've been enough times that if there were off nights, we would have found one by now. Instead, every visit reminds us why we keep coming back. My advice? Bring a few friends, order a bottle of wine, share some appetizers, and enjoy the evening. Just don't forget to make a reservation because this place stays busy for a reason. Three years ago I recommended Brian's Place. Today I can recommend it even more enthusiastically. It's still one of our favorite restaurants, and it's one of those places we're always happy to introduce to someone who's never been. So far, every person we've brought has thanked us afterward--and that says it all.
