| - My girlfriend has been wanting to try cuban food for a while, especially since she used to get cuban sandwiches in puerto rico and hasn't had a great one since.
We started with the Tostones. She said they were perfect. I've never had them before and I thought they were great. Salty, crisp on the outside, soft but firm on the inside. We ate the whole plate, which was probably a bad idea because they are more filling than they look!
She of course had the cuban sandwhich, with mariquitas on the side. She says the sandwhich very "yummy, deliciousy, and fantastic". Exactly how they make them at El Mason in Puerto Rico.
I had the Pan Con Bistec, no mayo. They aren't lying on the menu when they say delicious steak. It was amazing. Oh and the plate was gigantic. I barely ate half of it and I'm having the rest for lunch tomorrow (unless I can't resist and eat it for dinner tonight!). Big slices of tomato, sauteed onions, fresh fluffy bread, just plain awesome. I regret that I got french fries on the side, they were good, but I tried my girlfriends mariquitas and they were so delicious, I wish I had gotten those instead.
We were too full for dessert, but hopefully next time!
We live in west phoenix and this place is totally worth the drive for us!!
