| - Heard about the place through Groupon. Get there and there's a sign on the door that states they are no longer accepting the Groupon. Well that's great, the old bait and switch, get you in the door, you pay full price.
Ordered the Cuban Coffee, which was great, even came in a little coffee cup adorned with Cuban flags. Server was nice enough. I ordered sauteed pork with the con gris and a side of fried yucca and my girlfriend ordered the Cuban sandwich.
Here is where it goes wrong. Everything was luke warm. Most likely reheated, which was a shame because the con gris was actually good, just cold. The pork was the chewiest thing on the planet. I thought I had gotten grissle or something but all of them were like that. The fried yucca was not fried enough. The fried yucca pieces were huge, never seen that with fried yucca. The outside of most pieces were a bit fried but the inside was mush, just like regular yucca. I wanted something more fried.
The cuban sandwich was also cold. The bread was extremely flaky, again a shame. Cuban bread is delicious but this was lacking. Also, the pork was whatever on the sandwich. Like boiled ham. No real flavor. If it was warmer, it would not have been so bad.
Apparently this place has live music sometimes, I think that'd be amazing to see. I can't rate it based off the possibility of live music, but if you wanted to check this place out, that would be the time. It wasn't great.
