    This was our first time at 1958 Cuban Cuisine and I can honestly say that we will go back. The atmosphere and people were warm and welcoming. The food was excellent. We started with avocado stuffed with oxtail, ropa vieja empanadas, and shrimp in garlic sauce. These were a great start to an awesome meal. For entrees, we had ropa vieja, vaca frita, and boliche mechado. We had congri, tostones, and mixed vegetables as our sides. All of the dishes were so flavorful and the meat was tender. For dessert, we shared flan, rice pudding, and churros stuffed with chocolate. From start to finish, the meal was an A+. We can’t wait to return.
