Starters: chicken noodle soup and house salad. Entree Chicharron chicken with black bean and yellow rice, Churrasco steak with chimichurri sauce and red beans and yellow rice.

Ask for the Mofongo! It's an off menu item that is too delcious to pass up. Mashed plantains with shredded meat served with plantain chips to scoop. You can get it as an appetizer or main meal.

Coconut shrimp, avocado salad & Churrasco. That's all you need to know. I have been coming here with my mother for probably over 10 years. It's always a sure thing. Oh and the plantains w/ garlic oil.

This is one of my favorite restaurants! Food is amazing! No matter what you get, you'll be satisfied! Churrasco o chicharron de pollo always do it for me!

Get the mariquitas (thinly sliced, crispy plantain chips with garlic mojo) & the churrasco (skirt steak with chimichurri & cebollitas). The Pollo Jamaiquina is basically jerk chicken.

Everything in their menu is good. Try their mariquitas, bacalaitos and empanadas. Their staff is very attentive and courteous.

Best of the 3 locations in New York. Prepare yourself for large portions and lots of salsa music. The red sangria is a must, by the pitcher, it's sweeter that way ;)
Jessica A.May 12, 2015
The tostones rellenos are a-ma-zing. Big portions and good prices. We found our new spot in the area. :)

The food is amazing!! Coconut mojiito is hands down the best. Small so there might be a wait but it's truly worth it
Elizabeth MeloNovember 11, 2010
The pollo con camarones is the best plate I've ever had in my life! The garlic-wine sauce they use is orgasmic! Literally!!! As for desert, definitely try the pastelitos, highly recommended.
Nessie T.February 23, 2013
Everything from the food to dessert is absolutely amazing! Even the drinks are awesome! Have a seat and enjoy! :)
Chris DMarch 23, 2013
Food is amazing here.... Try the churrascho with yellow rice and beans... And get a coconut mojito.... You gotta do it right!!!
Keith McDonald CharlesMay 18, 2016
Unbelievable....!!! but heard the big time developers want that whole corner, commonly called resturant row .......so eat up fast because bulldozers & construction don't like cocojitos 🌹🌹🌹 Friends
eb davisMarch 19, 2017
the food was good not truly excellent but the sangria was to die for!! the hour long wait to be seated was ridiculous
Roger LuFebruary 15, 2015
Very friendly and attentive staff. Great food. Sangria and mojitos recommended
John FlorioDecember 21, 2015
Me and my fiancé went here for Valentines Day. The served us frozen (like still ice cold and rock hard frozen) empanadas. Charges us full price no drink on the house to make up for it.

The Maduras and Ropa Viera are excellent ! Small , cozy .great date spot .
Mike SeilbackAugust 4, 2011
Churrasco (skirt steak) was delicious - drinks were tasty, strong and reasonably priced and the appetizer chicken wings were great.
L. T.April 3, 2015
The tostones were a bit dry but everything else is lovely. The lunch menu is great.
Alex OropezaOctober 24, 2010
The churrasco was unexceptional...every Latin restaurant has a churrasco so don't bother it's really unexceptional Tne ropa vieja on the other hand was exceptional. Order the sangria no appetizer..
RCMarch 23, 2014
quatros leche OMG, I'll come back here just for this. Worth the 5 miles I need to run off right after!
Christianna AmboSeptember 29, 2013

It isn't on the menu but get their Mofongo. It's great! For a small desert order some sweet plantains (maduros). Rum-based and Sangria drinks are great here too. Read more

Try their Ropa Vieja and Tres Leches cake. Their sangria was a tad too sweet. Other than that, good atmosphere and service.
Christian PerezMay 25, 2013

Nice and intimate Cuban Cuisine. The Ropa Vieja is excellent, the Flan for desert was awful. But overall it's a good restaurant...
Brian TMarch 9, 2013
Always packed. Great food. Good for a group, but very cramed.
Kelly AnnDecember 21, 2011
I recommend the ropa vieja or the empanadas. Save room for the coconut ice-cream.

Fanny GNovember 23, 2013
Didn't really like the food, the rice and beans is bland, it's like a chunk of sodium. The Sangria on the other hand was Delish!
