• 6/2/2520/10 best Cuban Sandwich we ever tried, the Lechon (pork) was out of this world super juicy! my husband loved the amarillos (sweet plantain)... btw the like extra plantain chips were delicious too. We were visiting Chattanooga for the weekend but before I go back home we're definitely coming back for more.

• 3/15/24Ohhhhh myyyyy gahhhhhhh these oxtails are to dieeee forrrr what a slice of Heaven on earth! I was a bit apprehensive because I don't usually try new foods/restaurants but I am soooooo glad I did! The vegetables are AMAZING!!! Perfectly seasoned! I didnt care for the rice! It didnt have any type of seasonings or butter. So next time I will definitely order a double portion of vegetables! Yall the meat is soooo tender! You can taste the flavor allll the way to the bone! You just want to pick it up and put your mouth on it LOL Definitely order! You wont regret it! Oh and they give you plenty of Braised Beef Oxtails there was even meat in the gravy yummmm! Definitely worth the money
