1 /5 Alexis Chin: This is one of the most disappointing restaurants I’ve been to in a while. I’ve lived in South Florida my whole life and this is by far the worst Cuban food I’ve ever had. The place looks authentic and the food looks like it’s going to taste great, but don’t be fooled. I expected a lot better food being in Hialeah.
When you first walk in, there’s a case of a bunch of items. It looks like they multiple types of grilled meats. Since it’s Cuban, they have lots of pork options. They also have rice, plantain, salad, etc. It’s quintessential Cuban stuff. However, there is zero pricing anywhere. The way you order is by standing next to the case and picking out food but they don’t have an actual menu for the items in the cases. Behind the counter, there’s a menu with sandwiches, steak, etc. but ordering is chaotic. There isn’t a definitive line or way to order. They kind of throw food into a container and charge you at the end. I don’t expect the workers to speak English since I’m in Hialeah, but the workers were extremely rude and unwilling to help. I may not speak Spanish but that doesn’t mean the employees can snicker at me and help others in front of me. I did fine someone that spoke English to help me but it was done begrudgingly. If the food was good, I could accept the terrible service, but with such bland and tasteless food it’s unacceptable. I would never recommend this restaurant nor would I encourage anyone to try it out. Such a massive disappointment. You might as well go to the Sedanos across the street for lunch than come here.
