Amazing experience! Add more sound absorbing finishes (curtains, sound baffles) and lower the lights to 7 ft both sconce and pendants.

The food was excellent, this is legitimate Cuban food. It’s not bland like other locations attempt to make Cuban mainstream. We had the Vaca Frita & Churasco, with moros, tostones, yuca & maduros. All were on point and true to their Cuban origin. The servers were great and extremely friendly. The only downer is that there was a group of Karen’s & Ken’s that were inconvenienced by the music and complained to the point that the music was so low, you could hardly hear. Sorry but part of going to an ethnic restaurant is engaging in the culture and creating the ambience. Otherwise everything was great!
