Ropa Vieja, plantains and their mojitos are solid. Live music is always a plus as well as their atmosphere. Definitely recommend this restaurant
They got rid of my favorite tapa...ceviché...I’m soooo sad! 😢 they also got rid of some other of my favorite dishes, like the entree for two that had the roasted chicken!
Delicious!! The service was great- friendly and speedy, and the food was so flavorful. This was my first Cuban food experience, but my husband loves Cuban and has eaten it many times. He said this food was as good as the food he had from our Cuban in-laws.
The food was great. I ordered masitas de puerco and my wife ordered the sample plate. My kids ordered rice and pork and they love it. We met a Venezuelan waitress and she was super nice to explain the food to my wife.
I have been meaning to try this place for a good while, a friend invited me out to dine with him here and I'm glad I went. The place was pretty full, so the atmosphere was a bit loud and hectic for my tastes, but not unbearably so. The staff and decor were both fine. My friend had the lechon which was very tasty and I tried the chicken empanadas. They were very well prepared, but seasoned in a way I'm unused to. Not hot & spicy, just something I could not quite place. Never the less they were quite tasty. We also split an order of calimari, which were also perfectly cooked.
So if you are in the St. Mathew's area and in the mood for some Cuban grub, you can feel good about getting a fix here.
Outstanding food and atmosphere! Servers were great and gave good reccomedations. I expect this type of service from more expensive restaurants.
Yenisey, our wonderful waitress, was attentive, friendly, and always has a smile. We were quickly greeted with two glasses of water, greatly appreciated. I ordered their Masas de Puerco. The pork was crispy on the outside while juicy and tender on the inside. My wife ordered their Cubano Sandwich. The sandwich usually comes with Swiss cheese but was substituted with Provilone. Personally, I think Provilone enhances the sandwich's taste. Yenisey was also mindful of food allergies. Thank you so much Havana Rumba!
One of my favorite places to eat in Louisville and I eat out a lot! I start off with the papas rellenas (mashed potato balls with seasoned meat, deep fried) which are outstanding. Then I order a Cubano or Havana Rumba sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries.......pure heaven :)
Excellent Cuban pork with matching sides. Big portions. Extensive dessert options. Highly recommended anytime you are hungry in Louisville.
This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Louisville. Every single time I have been here the service is incredible, friendly, fast and spot on... The food.... Man...it is full of flavor and never less than perfect. I almost always get the Vaca Fritas and a mojito. Their mojitos are the best I've had in town! EAT HERE! You will be HOOKED I promise!
I would have given this place 5 stars except for the host was not very friendly and hospitable when we came in. He seemed put out that we wanted to wait for a table. Food, as always, was delicious and our server was good. Music was extremely loud so it was hard to hold a conversation.
As a Cuban, this is my favorite restaurant in Louisville. I have been here several times and it’s always good and consistent. I’ve taken several American coworkers here and they all leave with a good impression. Saturdays are my favorite because of the live music. On my last visit I had a a couple of passion fruit-mango mojito that were amazing! Highly recommend their camarones al ajillo and all Pork and Beef dishes.

A spectacular restaurant, incredible food and service. I love this place.
Service was a little slow. The food was great. The atmosphere is very nice. Love what they are doing outside. It's going to be very nice when the outside seating is done.
Nice place larger than it appears. There's parking in a back lot behind the place, which we didn't know. No wait and service was quick. Everything we ordered was excellent. The flat bread was a creative fusion dish. The soup was really good too. We also ordered the combo appetizer dish, also very good. The banana dessert was insanely good and memorable. Highly recommend this place for ambiance, service and food.
My fiancé and I love to eat here, so much so that we’ve been going pretty much every weekend for the past two months. And they never miss, service is phenomenal and food is amazing every single time. Even on busy Saturday evenings, service is pretty swift. We also love the environment and the live music. I can tell the staff works as a team to keep things running smoothly. I’ll keep going back as this has become our favorite spot.
The food is good. It is not spicy. My recommendation is the Ropa Vieja. It was my first time with the mojito and was too strong for me, but my husband loved it. I'm Mexican, so I prefer some spicy in the food.. I took the pork (puerco asado) to go and I added more onion, habanero and lemon at home 😂.. my favorite side: plantains fried 🤩
We had a wonderful experience with our family of 6. We have kids 9,7,5.2. The kids meal had lots of options- traditional and Cuban. The portions were filling for my 9 year old and we loved it came with fruit and fries.
My husband had the steak chimichurri and I had a salad with grilled chicken. We got a side of yuca fritas. The hostess and servers were so friendly and the service was very quick. The food was fresh and yummy. The kids tenders were made with fresh chicken which we think is amazing. There was live Cuban music and the atmosphere was fun, friendly and inviting. A wonderful restaurant we will be back on our next visit to Louisville.
The staff was super friendly and for that reason alone I'd go back. Sat down to eat Tapas... These tapas are really lunch portions lol. We ordered way too much food. For the most part the food was great, a few bites were just ok. Overall good spot for a bite to eat
Such a great place! Love the open concept on a nice day. Food is great and it's easy to eat light.
