Reviews

The live Cuban trio was fun, if loud.
The black beans met all expectations, the skirt steak was tender and lovely, the salmon was fine--the peppers and onions surrounding the salmon were great.
The whiskey sours were on point and very good.
Great little spot north of the theater district.
Definitely recommended.

Fun, lively spot with a live band.
Somehow got a table on Friday night.
Sea bass, chicken, yuca fries, papas rellenas, and beans were great.
Tres leches was awesome.
Was limited for vegetarians, but we expected it.
The veggie paella was full of veggies which my husband liked but wasn’t as rich as the other foods.
Super awesome staff!

Cuban cuisine is well known.
The food is delicious, with a variety of dishes.
It requires more than one visit to enjoy the food.
The staff at the reception are generally friendly.
The table assigned to us was set in the basement of the restaurant.
A dish was chosen and another dish arrived.
Unfortunately, I expected the person in charge of the table to apologize and change the order, but he insisted on it.
My request, and this is not good behavior for a famous restaurant that has customers from all over the world, and this does not mean reducing the level of the restaurant, on the contrary, in order to correct the mistake next time with customers, I recommend visiting the restaurant 👍🏻
