| - Went here since I had bought their groupon. I ordered the ham croquettes, the cuban tamale, and the cuban sandwich.
I had to send the croquettes back since they were still frozen in the middle. The initial order that came out had 5 on the plate. When the server came back, there was only 4 on the plate, with some of the filling coming out, like a over cooked mozzarella stick. So I guess they just re-fried the same order that I sent back.
The cuban sandwich was mediocre at best. I chewed through so much bread compared to the amount of roast pork and ham on it. Even though I don't know for certain, I can only assume the pork wasn't made that day by the way it looked and tasted. It was priced at 10 bucks, and was comparable to a school lunch sandwich a parent would make, in terms of size. Barely any cheese, with the most flavorful part of it being the mustard that was on it. Nothing special like spicy mustard, grainy mustard, or even grey poupon. Just regular yellow mustard.
The only redeemable part of what I ordered was the tamale, but only marginally. While it was actually tasty, there was a lot of the masa compared to only two pieces of what I was to assume were pork. For whatever reason, there were pork rinds on top.
Overall, the food tasted as if a non-cuban person attempted to make cuban food for the first time. Nothing that stood out enough to make me want to come back without a groupon. If it wasn't for the groupon, I would have felt like I didn't get my money's worth.
I would recommend to pass on this place unless you have some type of coupon/groupon/sale/deal.
