been to the original numerous times and i was excited to try this westside addition. overall the food is good but it lacks the atmosphere of the paradise location. it looks exactly like it did when it was z tejas. started with the serrano ham and monchego cheese tray. the ham was buttery and the cheese had a nice sharpness that paired well with the meat. overall an excellent start. we also had the suffed peppers. they were also very good. we then ordered calamari and croquettes (neither were my choice). the calamari was ok but too heavily breaded and the dipping sauce was way too strong. i didn't care for the croquettes at all. they were mostly cheese. in fact, i tried to dig into one and find some ham but i couldn't. the croquettes at cuba cafe are much much better. service was attentive but not overbearing.
