Very good food I went there sometimes but mostly Cuban coffee champ my favoriteFood: 5/5

My brother has been raving about this restaurant for a while, and I finally got to check it out this week. I'm so glad I did—it’s now my new local favorite! It's conveniently located, offers generous portions of amazing food at a great price, and has quick service with friendly staff. The place was also very clean. We tried the Cuban sandwich, which was easily the best I've ever had! We also ordered the beef stew and pulled pork, both of which were incredibly tender and full of flavor. I can’t wait to return and sample more dishes!
