Hubby and I decided to celebrate Valentine’s here as it’s one of my favorite places. Since I’m Cuban, I’m particularly critical about Cuban restaurants. This is one amazing restaurant! The tasty lechon asado entree came with yummy yucca topped with delicious mojo, perfect maduros and congri. The only issue was the very very loud group in the bar( they were in waiting area with us previously) . I think it would have been appropriate if management had spoken to them since the restaurant is not a stadium. Again we enjoyed the meal and server was excellent! Looking forward to a next meal.
