Restaurant manager need to have better attitude and better service. Cuban restaurant that served uncooked rice twice is unacceptable.
LBClifton, NJJuly 22, 2026Always so very enjoyable and fun 🤩
SGMiami, FLJuly 11, 2026The drinks and food were really good, overall a good experience. If I had one critique to work on it would be that it did take a pretty long time to get my food, but nothing super crazy
MFHaltom City, TXJuly 04, 2026the food was amazing, portions were great, service was very good.
OBNewark , NJJuly 02, 2026My family and I visited this restaurant last month, and overall we had a nice experience. The restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is lovely, and the food was good. However, the portions were surprisingly small for the price. What really disappointed me was the way the gratuity was handled. A 20% service charge was already included on the bill, but our server never mentioned it. When I asked if the tip was included, she told me "no" and explained that the service charge was "for the restaurant, not for me." That explanation was very misleading, especially since the bill clearly stated "20% service charge." Because of what she told us, we felt pressured to leave an additional 20% tip on top of the service charge. Between the service charge, the extra tip, and taxes, we ended up paying around $50 beyond the cost of our meal. That left a very bad impression. I usually enjoy leaving positive reviews and appreciate good service, but this experience felt dishonest and left me questioning the restaurant's practices. It's unfortunate because the restaurant itself is beautiful and the food was enjoyable, but I won't be returning due to how the gratuity was handled.
