Cubana Cafe (CLOSED)

I ordered the Cuban sandwich. It's delicious! Moist and tender roast pork, sandwiched together with melted swiss cheese, ham, pickles and mayo on perfectly (not too much) toasted bread. Went with some cuban friends of mine and they loved the food, didn't think that much of the decor.

Really I do! whenever I have someone visiting me I always take them here. We always have birthday dinners here as well. The staff is very accomodating and sweet. I love the Avocado and shrimp salad and the corn. It really is one-if not my most- favorite restaurants. Give it another try if you were disappointed before! and the sangria rules! but! I did try the one in Brooklyn and it was total disappointment. so stick with what you know.

...and the flavor (or lack thereof) and service reflect the prices. I had ordered the marinated steak sandwich and the server didn't hear me, so rather than asking again she assumed that whatever my finger happened to be pointing at was what I wanted. I was given a chicken sandwich, sent it back and got what I originally ordered but I doubt it would've made a difference. The sandwich had no flavor - the meat was definitely not marinated in anything. Two of my friends ordered chicken quesadillas which were flavorless as well apparently. Definitely won't be coming here again.

After reading great reviews about this restaurant, I was excited to check it out with a few of my friends, but I was totally disappointed. I ordered the “Chicken, avocado, tomato, salsa, with chipotle mayo quesadilla”. The quesadilla was very bland and the chicken was boiled. Who boils their chicken? Also, the service was very poor. The waitress gave us attitude throughout the whole night and gave my friend the wrong dish.

I met some friends here. They had already eaten most of their food, and we had plans for afterward. So I ordered just the ceviche appetizer and some kind of tropical non-alcoholic cuban drink. The service was quick enough that I was able to easity catch up to my friends without them waiting for me. The ceviche was the best I've ever tasted. The mango pineapple drink was was really yummy. I didn't actually pay for this, my friend Dave did, but I do remember not wanting to get any more than the ceviche because of the prices. We had coffee, which was also excellent and I was able to have all of that and be out of there in probably less than 30 minutes. That's a nice feature when you need something tasty and quick. Warning: If you don't like crowded and loud spaces, do not come to Cubana.

Based on a friend's rec, we stopped in for a quick dinner. My husband enjoyed the mojito, but our quesadillas (he had shrimp; I had chicken) were flavorless. The service was excellent; the cafe is tiny but cleverly decorated. Maybe we just ordered the wrong dishes. I'll give them another try. The price was good.

I went there for a business lunch when I was trying to kick heroin. I ordered the Mango Chicken dish with some reservations, but I have to say it was a pretty square meal. I was not disappointed and would recommend this establishment to anyone with the brass to try Cubano.
