Cuban sandwich is solid. Good bold flavour, proper pressed bread . The meat was a tad bit dry in parts, but that's what the green sauce is for.

Josue Evilla

Not a fancy lunch spot . Just legit Cuban food that will satisfy your home cooked meal cravings. Try the Roast Pork (Pernil ), paired with rice and beans and fried plantains ...then loosen your belt.

Anthony Bosco

Amazing value, bold latin flavors for bland Midtown....and the price is right. Only downfall is they close early on Saturday and are not open on Sunday. The Chicken Pattys are amazing, greeen sauce!

Jeremy Jacobowitz

Love the food here! Roasted pork is fantastic! Make sure to get both their hot sauce and garlic sauce and dump it on everything! Especially their yucca fries !

Harumi U

Clean place for this kind of take out service restaurant . Food is good and green sauce is great. Ordering can be a bit confusing between "order here" point, fridge and going through line

The spinach/vegetarian empanada was darned tasty (admittedly, Latin cuisine isn't where I'd get for a veggie fix); the filling was super garlicky and it had minced carrots and corn mixed in...

Kevin Vaughn

Pernil with rice and beans was excellent! Fast service and great portions. Bottle of green sauce on the table - use it...on EVERYTHING!

Fried pork sandwich is one of the best lunch options in the area. Extremely tasty and spicy if you're into that sort of thing

Jackson Peddy

Tina's food is great, from fried pork chops to sweet plantains they cover it all. Top it off with a Cuban coffee !

Daniel M.

I love this place! Great lunch for a low budget, and they take LevelUp so I can buy lunch without cash or pulling out a credit card.

Brian

Fried pork sandwich . Get it with extra green sauce . Who knew fried plantain could be so good on a sandwich ?

Phanessa

Sandwiches hit the spot, fried pork is huge and topped with sweet plantains .

Keith Kaplan

I got the fried pork sandwich for lunch and it was delicious. Definitely worth a total of 7.50 including tip.

Aaron Banks

Best green hot sauce I've ever had! Not to mention anything you get from here is amazing.

Janice

You'll fall in love with chuletas & the fried fish with the yummy green sauce . Try the passion fruit shake !

Ethan McCarty

Best (only?) espresso under $2 in Midtown. Pay $1.36 and leave the change for the super nice staff .

Christian Tookes

It's dope. Get anything. If you like plantains don't forget to get them. Cause they're dope.

Go around 1pm to beat the crowd for table service. Portions are huge so don't bother with extras.

Valerie

Skip every other lunch place on 56th street and go here. You won't regret it

About $10, and you'll definitely be full. Ask for some more of their green hot sauce .

Amazing grilled chicken . Not sure how healthy it is but it's really good.

Jimmy Y

I got the cuban sandwich with their awesome green sauce .

Julian Paul

You pay a lot of money for a simple platter. It's all rice . A side of plantains=2. Ropa vieja was tender but bland. Everything was bland.
