Anna M. • January 20, 2013This place is awful. The beef tacos are comparable to Taco Bell. Obviously low grade meat. Not authentic at all.

Amelia B. • January 5, 2013this place is great. so nice to finally find another cuban restaurant in the city. It's a bit far out, but totally worth it. Authentic food, good prices, and wonderful live music!

Jon T. • April 27, 2014I'm Vietnamese and the food is delicious and authentic as it gets in Charlotte. Don't expect good service or for large parties, for food to come out at the same time. But it is a mom and pop place.
