The best Cuban food in midtown west. Delivery is fast. Food is high-quality and delicious. I always go with the paella valenciana and cuban sandwiches - both excellent.

Unfortunately they do not deliver to E 49 & Park. However, I have been to the restaurant and absolutely LOVE it! Went there for dinner with my husband on our anniversary and had such a great experience that we returned two days later for on my birthday. Our waitress, Dailyn, was fantastic--love her! The hostess, manager were so nice and caring. Live music by REAL CUBAN SONEROS reminded me of my youth and made me feel completely at home. I recommend this place to anyone wanting truly authentic Cuban cuisine!

Have not eaten yet...but it has been 75 minutes and food has not arrived. Twenty minutes ago we called to check on the order and we were told the delivery person had left 15 minutes ago! Not a pleasing experience so far.

The food would've been a lot more delicious if I didn't have to wait an hour and a half for it. Something to consider...

Certain items on the menu are pleasant (e.g. salad - great if you are a rabbit) but the main dishes (especially if you are latin) need some "que le ponga salsa" and maybe a little sofrito. Oh lord, and those tostones are sponge of grease - if you are looking for a heart attack I suggest the tostones. By the way there is white, yellow and moro but never orange rice - I suggest you stop spooning off the bijol and try a dash instead. The place has potential they just need a better cook - maybe one that is latin.
