Reviews
Overall I would say this place is good, but not great. I don’t think I picked their signature item, so partly on me. I like Cuban food, but I don’t think this place fit my tastes. Got one of the Cubans. It wasnt bad, but I’ve had better. The cheese was melty, the slices of meat were thick, bread was toasty, mustard was tangy. It came with Spanish rice and beans. The rice was decent, beans were good, prepared well, and simple. Probably made a mistake of getting a Cuban instead of the paella, which I did see come out. It did look good, but I’d guess since the rice wasn’t too flavorful, it heavily relied on the other things In the paella to flavor it.
Love this place! The Bocadillo Latino (Cuban sandwich) is absolutely stellar, loaded with roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, mustard, mayonnaise, mojo sauce, and pickles on pressed Cuban bread-- oh! and their amazing rice and beans. If you can, grab a spot upstairs—the atmosphere up there is great. Highly recommend
Delicious! I love their salsa!! Paella is very good
Stopped by before a music festival and this was about 10 mins from our AirBNB. I really enjoyed everything, the guacamole was great, and the paella serving was very generous for two. It was a little difficult getting the check but that's a very minor complaint. Stop by!
