Went for their Thursday special and got oxtail with rice and beans and a side salad. Also added a side of fried chicken chunk. You might as well get the fried chicken chunk plate since it was the same price ($15 or so). The food came with a couple of green sauces (which really wasn’t a green sauce, it was more like a garlic vinaigrette). The oxtail was delicious and loved the fried chicken chunk (so crispy and not as dried as I expected it to be). The sides, however, weren’t impressive at all. The rice and beans were mushy and the side salad was iceberg lettuce with canned veggies (no dressing). Wouldn’t be a bad place to get the oxtail from time to time.

This may be my new favorite local lunch spot, for real! An absolute hidden gem slinging out classic Cuban and American lunch and breakfast menu! It was slowing getting packed as I sat and ate, that’s how you know it’s legit, when the local workers all go here

Every dish I tried was so delicious and fresh. The roast chicken is outrageous and a great little power lunch. Their famous Cubano sandwich is also a must try dish

Great customer service, they are such sweet people working here. They have lots of regulars coming in, joking with them, asking how things are going, etc. Cuban sandwich was the best I've had, tried the cortadito coffee. Then I saw some regulars ordering containers of white stuff, asked what it was and they said it's oatmeal, the best one ever. So of course I had to try it. Wow, so creamy and delicious! Wish I came here sooner instead of my last day. This place is a gem!

The best Cuban restaurant we tried in New york! Atmosphere is eatery style but still given them a 5star because they maintained the cleanliness and condiments are available on every table. The staffs are so kind and warm, they knew that we are travelers visiting the city, they were so patient and even gave us free food as a sampler to taste! They are their special items on the menu, different everyday. We came here on a Monday for their Ox Tail! The BEST! Soooo tender and the sauce is amazing! Plus the plantain and black beans on the side compliments the dish so well! They also have Cuban coffee which we really love and a must try too! Every cup is freshly brewed so you may have to wait a bit but its all worth it!

The employees/owner are so sweet and friendly. For a place to be so close to Times Square it’s really surprising to find, not touristy at all. Cuban sandwich was amazing so juicy and perfectly flavored. Simple, easy, true to Cuban food. They know what they’re doing. Highly recc
