A co-worker recommended that I come here, I've now been here 3x and counting The Oxtail and plantains are amazing. And they make their own hot sauce!!! So good. I recommend it to all of my clients when they ask where to go for food.

First time here. We've lived in the area a few years. Not sure how we missed it. We're a fan of the plantains. Also liked the Cubano sandwich, chicken, rice and beans.

This was our first time going here. It was so delicious. The service was great. Definitely coming back. The pork was delicious and so was the chicken. We also had a flan and it was delicious. Overall a great experience and great food.

An impromptu lunch at El Cubano.. we had the lechon asado, 1/2 roasted chicken, crispy yucca frita and all the homemade desserts. Our favorite was the roasted chicken. It was so flavorful, the garlic lemon sauce and marinated onions made our tastes buds go crazy. The desserts were also delicious... the grand finale was a perfectly sweetened cute little espresso coffee shot. The owner told us about their catering and it sounded perfect. Give them a try

Still cool spot. Stepped their game up a bit. 1. Oxtails are flavorful and a good portion just wish the sauce was a little more tomato based. 2. The Yuka Rellenas I would drive from far for. Best I've ever had!!!! 3. Salad is huge and hearty. 4. Black beans were soupy and not flavorful 5. Rice wasn't fluffy and flavorful like I recalled 6. You only get a few plantains so if you want a lot order a side. Will be back if only for the Yuka Rellenas!
