Azucar Cuban Restaurant

Muy delicioso! I came here on a whim for lunch two weeks after their opening.
The dining room was about 50% full.
The service was efficient, friendly and genuine.
The many $10 lunch specials were great value for both the quantity and quality of food.
The menu appeared to be mostly standard Cuban fare (don’t expect fancy fusion or “chef inspired” items here).
The decor was excellent—one can tell that the owners invested in the appearance of the facility with a nice bar space to boot.
We loved our meals (not good for the sodium weary!).
Well-seasoned, tender meat and fish and excellent black beans and fried banana.
I will absolutely come back here.
I can’t wait to try the rest of their many menu items.

Good selection of great tasting Cuban food.
The Ropa Nueva was excellent.
Vaca Fritta good also.
The Paella was very bland.
No seasoning.
They also have two great seafood dishes: Branzino and Salmon.
Both come with good sides.
Nice cocktail selection.
Only complaint is there are two waitresses that don't speak English.
They also don't know the difference between Tequila and bourbon.
We had two Spanish speakers with us and the waitress still didn't understand there are different bourbons.
Otherwise the service is friendly and solid.
I'll definitely go back.

This place is wonderful.
I had the Ropa Nueva and my husband had the Havana Peking.
The portion sizes were on point, and the meat was tender and cooked to perfection.
For drinks we had the Cojito, which was the perfect combination of sweet and minty, with a delicious coconut rim.
The restaurant itself is beautiful and very clean, with a rustic and natural feel.
The wait staff were very nice and attentive as well.
The ambience was very relaxed and fancy for a great date night to celebrate good news.
I can't wait to come back and try everything else that Azúcar has to offer.
