   Francisco was our waiter. He was great! The food was tasty and the drinks were on point! It was a busy Saturday so we were seated at the last table at the corner, opposite the entrance in a table for two. There was no barrier between us and the pedestrian traffic. That felt uncomfortable especially when a derelict offered to clean your sneakers or shoes. I understand that real estate is limited but please put up some kind of separation to distinguish your establishment. Thank you!

   Other than the part where we booked an outdoor table and they gave it away to someone else while we were standing there waiting to check in for our reservation, no notes. Food is outstanding, the giant mason jars of mojitos are great and just what you want, staff are able to handle a busy night.

   Very good Cuban food on the quaint Espanola street. We loved our dishes (roast chicken and roast pork) which were more tasty than you imagine roast meat would be! The side dishes were a perfect complement and the drink selection was expansive. Service was also great!

   Really solid food; skirt steak, rice & beans, pork shoulder, plantains, chicken & mojitos were all really good. Would definitely recommend. Only real down side is the cigar bar next door and the smoke that blows over. Really takes away from the dinner.

    Bel ristorantino in pieno centro a south beach . Abbiamo cenato all'interno,che è piccolino, i tavoli sono abbastanza vicini ed eravamo situati tra il passaggio dalla cucina e il bagno. Servizio cordiale e sorridente. Buona scelta di piatti cubani. Prezzo abbastanza alto per gli standard italiani ma in linea con quelli di Miami
