So again following fellow Yelp reviewers you have not led me wrong. Searching for nearby new places to eat I came along the reviews for here and decided it was time to try some Cuban food. I have actually pulled into the parking lot thinking about trying this place one other time but didn't so I was happy to give it a shot!
Here is a list of what we tried.
-For appetizers (Tapas) we had Empanadas de res o pollo beef or chicken we had beef. As one reviewer before me mentioned it was a work of art it was a light crisp crust with a very flavorful filling I could have just had a few of these for dinner.
-Tamal criollo homemade tamale the masa was a darker color with a bit more flavor then what I have had before it was good however it was a bit dry for my taste.
-For dinner we followed other reviewers and tried theTasting plate a combo of Roos Vieja, rich spicy beef simmered with onions and peppers. Pollo Tequila Mar chicken with herbs and a spicy tequila sauce. Lechon Asado marinaded pork in a garlic olive oil this was my favorite it reminded me of a well cooked turkey dinner! Served with Moros Cristianos a black bean rice good but saved that for lunch because this is a TON of food. Also served with Maduros ( a fried sweet plantain)
All in all the food was good the price was fair for the serving side the ambiance was nice. It is a busy restaurant a constant flow of people on a Monday night! The service was good the cooking was a bit on the slow side but like I said they were very busy so I won't fault them for that because they did bring our apps before dinner so we were fine chatting while waited.
I am going back for a lunch of a cuban sandwich soon I can't wait to try that. I also noticed them bringing out to almost every table the Batidos a Cuban milkshake in many flavors I don't quite know how I am going to fit this all into my stomach but I am going to try.
