| - We decided to try this place out based on the great reviews on Yelp. Upon entering, we were greeted immediately as we walked in and were handed menus as we sat. Despite our group of three being the only ones in the restaurant, it was about 10 minutes before the lady came back to take our order. I ordered the Sandwich Cubano, my hubby ordered the Ropa Vieja, and we also ordered the empanadas. It was about 20 minutes after ordering that our food finally came out of the kitchen.
My sandwich was good. The bread was thin and crispy, and the pickles added a good bit of saltiness and crunch, but it was a little on the dry side and probably could have used a little more meat. The Ropa Vieja was very good. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the mole sauce had a nice smoky flavor. The empanadas, which were listed in the Appetizers section of the menu yet were the last plate to come out, were okay. They were a bit dry since it had a lot more breading than meat.
Overall, the food was decent but the service was a bit slow. We came for lunch during work and probably won't again as it took so long. Their pastries, however, looked good in the display case, so maybe we'll come back to try those.
