Wonderful, wonderful experience. I’ve wanted some real Cuban food for a long time ever since I tasted many good restaurants in Miami, and this place is absolutely PERFECT. The food is amazing and tasty and delicious and very very flavorful. And besides this, the customer service is absolutely phenomenal. The main chef is so passionate about this food and his heritage and his family, and he made all our food to order (even though he normally wouldn’t) and he even paid for us to try the sweet fried plantains because he was so excited for us to try them. I would come here every day if I didn’t live so far away. Also, apparently the guava pastries are so popular they usually sell out first thing in the morning, and I am ALWAYS looking for those delicious things. Overall, a very authentic, warm, and familial place to go with a date, a family, or just by yourself!
Friendliest owners ever! The food was delicious. The croquetas were excellent. Also try the Cuban tostada. The Piccadillo wasn’t that great, but that was the only dish like that. You have to try the guava and cheese empanadas, and the red beans and rice were excellent! Tres leches and rice pudding were also good. I’m just listing everything, I recommend!
Veggie plate was very tasty. Had a macaroon that was very good. Also had the rice pudding cake(my husband ate it before I could get a picture) which was delicious!! The employees were very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and willing to explain everything. Atmosphere inside was great. Only reason for 4 stars is that the food was very oily. We plan on returning when we visit CO again.
Great variety of great Cuban food and friendly atmosphere. Don't be surprised if the family owners and operators pay attention to your needs and tastes. A gem of a tasty, friendly and authentic tastes of Cuban food.
Oh my God this deliciouness was amazing. I don't remember what it was called, some kind of steak, but it melted in my mouth it was so tender and juicy! Huge portion of food that left me full with a lot of beans and rice still on the plate. Service was amazing and the owner even brought our food out to us. He was super friendly and wore a sincere, engaging smile!
Very friendly employees and the foods were fantastic! Definitely come back when we’re in this neighborhood. BTW, half of the foods were already taken by my kids before I took a picture! :)
This is the Cuban restaurant you've been searching for! There is no better in Colorado. The pork is slow cooked to perfection and the staff is always so friendly. They serve real Cuban style coffee that is strong but never bitter
My friend and I went for the cubano sandwich. It came with three fried plantains which were a nice sweet accompaniment. The family that runs the place is friendly and we felt so welcome when we arrived. We were given samples of the days specials and had we not been set on the sandwiches we definitely would have had one of those. The meat in the cubanos was tender and juicy. I would have liked more pickles, but I could have asked and didn’t.
