It was our first time we tried Cuban food, the taste & combination of food was really new for me & I like it, like to try again other dishes in future, it was like homemade cook, really simple design, the guy who work on door to pass samples was really friendly but other staffs couldn't speak English, we didn't like indoor area because the smell of cleaning product was a lot & also air circulation was not good, also the interior was not well design & that clean it was a bit messy there & we prefer to sit outside
