Don Tamal is widely praised for its authentic Cuban vibe, generous portions and delicious tamales, with many customers noting that a single plate can be quite filling and the prices offer good value. The atmosphere is described as lively and welcoming, enhanced by Latin music, colorful decor and friendly, attentive staff, and some reviews mention entertaining live performances. While the overall experience is positive, a few diners point to issues such as occasional long wait times, order mixups, items being unavailable, and sometimes salty flavors; several mention that the music volume can be loud for conversation. Dishes like ropa vieja, croquetas and tostones receive high marks, as do the mojito and margarita, and some guests even highlight a Cuban pizza and other flavorful options. Most reviews say they would return to try more of the menu, noting the sense of being immersed in Cuban culture and a memorable dining experience.
llegamos aquí con esperanza de tener una experiencia cubana y nos dio exactamente un viaje pa cuba. la pizza cubana la recomiendo mucho 🤤, regresáremos sin duda muchas bendiciones
I went to this Cuban restaurant last week & wow-10/10, they really nailed the authentic Cuban experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt like I had been teleported straight to Havana: beautiful atmosphere, lively vibes… &, of course, the menu that's more of a suggestion list than an actual menu.
Our waitress came by & kindly informed us that only a few items were available. Perfect-that's exactly how you know it's Cuban! Then, after placing the order, she returned like a plot twist in a telenovela to announce that one dish should be canceled because the chef decided it wasn't worth the effort. Classic.
Naturally, I said I could wait-because what's more Cuban than waiting? Sure enough, after a cool 45 minutes (basically one salsa playlist later), the food arrived. & to be fair-it was amazing. Absolutely worth the'culinary patience training.'
So if you're looking for not just food but a full-on cultural immersion-random menu cuts, surprise cancellations, & the joy of waiting-this is the place. ¡Auténtico!
A wonderful place to hang out, extremely clean & with a very Latin atmosphere, perfect for enjoying good Cuban & Colombian food, with Latin music shows in the evenings. The food quality is spectacular, & the service & staff are magnificent. I highly recommend it; I would come back again & again.
If you're looking for something different that will not cost you a arm & a leg & experience a real cuban vibe then i strongly recommend! Staff are super friendly & all latino origin which makes you wonder if you are actually on vacation! Try the margarita & the mojito! think it's the best i had!!
