Unfortunately I didn't enjoy anything I ordered. The portions were a joke for what it cost. The Mac and cheese looked like it was for a child. The Gumbo Yaya was so small. It couldn't have been more than one cup of food for each meal seriously. As for the Sweet Potato Biscuits they were okay. Nothing special. Waste of $50

The Macaroni & Cheese is so so so good! I NEVER order Mac & Cheese from restaurants cause it's usually soupy or underseasoned. Nah, this was the goooood stuff! Nicely crisped on top. Super cheesy. Very seasoned. Will be ordering again!!!

tastes like they put something spicy in the Boca Negra, also did not come with ice cream. good Fried Chicken (Dark Meat), alright Gumbo Yaya, great Macaroni & Cheese, and amazing Cubano . Buttermilk Biscuits were meh but had great fruit preserve jam.
