"Where should I start… as a Cuban-American individual I am going to say right now the only thing “Cuban” in this place is the name. I was visiting family in NYC and was having a nice afternoon stroll and stumbled onto this “Cuban” restaurant. I figured I would purchase a meal for my toddler which loves to eat rice and black beans. Her favorite actually, so imagine how thrilled I was when I saw this restaurant. I ordered grilled chicken breast with rice and beans. For starters the rice was yellow rice which is not typically how rice and beans are served. Generally it will be white rice with the beans, however I still decided to give it a go. My toddler literally didn’t swallow the food and told me she wanted nothing to do with the beans. I tried the food and honestly it’s theeee worst food I’ve ever had. The chicken couldn’t be blander unless it was alive still, incredibly dry. I mean forest fire dry. The rice was more like Mexican rice, a bad one at that, and the beans, I’ve had better straight from the Goya can. Undeniably not a Cuban restaurant. Please call this what it is which is a mediocre Mexican restaurant. Disappointed is an understatement once I saw how many non-Hispanic customers where eating there and getting swindled into thinking this is good Cuban OR Mexican food. Thumbs all the way down!!!!"
