First time dining there and the food was fresh and delicious. We had fried calamari as an appetizer. It was crispy and well prepared not rubbery. My wife and I ordered the steak with white rice also very good. They could improve their dessert menu since there were limited options.

The food was excellent but they needed a couple of more waiters. It took a long time to place our order and get our apps and entrees.

We're so fortunate to have Cubano's here. They make truly delicious and authentic Cuban food, and some of the plating is just beautiful. It's a very festive place and it's always fun to go there. Favorites are Lechon, Vaca Frita, Shrimp and Snapper. The Cuban chips and Arepitas are must haves. There are many other delicious choices that we try to get back fairly often to explore the menu.
