Great food and even better prices! This place is good to buy food in bulk without losing its flavor. Whenever I go to the beach with a big group I buy a tray of their Arroz imperial with loaf of Cuban bread and it's on!!!
The food is so good and consistent! The employees are kind and patient. The place is always clean and food is fresh.
The food, as always, was quite delicious and the portions were perfectly sized for my appetite. Everything was served with a smile.
Great cuban flavor! The closest you'll get to home made cuban food. Their frijoles, carne con papas, and flan are amazing.

Generous servings and really good food.
Good Latin American food. You can eat at cafeteria or take out. Also provides weekly meals to pick-up. Located in shopping center by Home Depot, next to Barber Shop. Good food and Service
Food always good. Small place, good prices. Can order ahead for a party or get together.
Food tastes very good, mostly as the name says it's Latin food. Also has Cuban Coffee and Venezuelan dessert. Offers take out food and weekly service. Has 4 or 5 tables to eat at place. Very friendly service!
We ordered tostones,a steak sandwich, and a hot dog. Price was very cheap(reason for the average rating) and food tasted pretty decent. Nice variety of food. Staff was attentive and nice. However, I was looking at one of the tostones we got and it seemed as if it had hairs in it. We told the manager and he said "it's only one hair ma'am ".... then after looking at it under the light he agreed to switch them for us and apologized. Also, I ordered my sandwich without any mustard but since it was take out I noticed when I got home they had added it.
Good Cuban food with daily specials. You can go to the counter where you will see all the food like buffet style but it's by the pound. You can also sit and eat. Many choices to pick from. I liked the ropa vieja! Tasty!

Food & service is good; however, the price is ridiculous especially for hole in the wall. I got charge $26 for a plate of food & a Malta at 245pm. Overpriced period. Never would I come back.

No me gusta la atencion al cliente, miran a uno con descriminacion. De la comida no me quejo es muy buena. Posdata: posterior a la primera nota ahora han mejorado la atencion al cliente usando la cortesia.
No space to stay
Can be better
Everything was great but the chicken was not hot. It's like room temperature.
We went for the hot dogs and we loved them. Good taste, price, clean place and cordial service. It is a small place and they sell food to go and by the pound. I'm a big hot dog fan and in this place they make them like they do in Venezuela "Con todo!" ( with everything). We will absolutely go back...see you soon!

Food is excelent. Always fresh. But bad service and attitude
Food is excelent. Always fresh. But bad service and attitude
I have been ordering cantina meals for my father from El Parador for several months, and the staff who assisted me have always been very friendly. However, since the business changed ownership around September, I have noticed a significant decline in the portion sizes for cantina orders. While I understand that changes to the menu are expected under new management, I was surprised to learn—only when placing a weekly order—that there is now an additional $2.99 daily charge for meals that include meat. When I questioned this, the new management insisted that the previous menu charged the same, which is simply not accurate. I also raised the concern that such changes should be clearly advertised on the order form, but the only response I received was that the new menu had been created quickly. I expressed that customers should not be receiving smaller portions while also being charged more. It’s important for others to be aware that sometimes new ownership may try to push changes without proper transparency. Please be cautious when placing cantina orders so you are not taken for granted. Spanish translation: He estado ordenando comidas de cantina para mi padre de El Parador durante varios meses, y el personal que me ha atendido siempre ha sido muy amable. Sin embargo, desde que el negocio cambió de dueño alrededor de septiembre, he notado una disminución considerable en las porciones de las órdenes de cantina. Entiendo que los cambios en el menú son de esperarse con una nueva administración, pero me sorprendió enterarme—solo al hacer un pedido semanal—que ahora hay un cargo adicional de $2.99 diarios por los platos que incluyen carne. Cuando pregunté al respecto, la nueva administración insistió en que el menú anterior cobraba lo mismo, lo cual NO es cierto. También mencioné que estos cambios deberían anunciarse claramente en el formulario de pedido, pero la única respuesta que recibí fue que hicieron el nuevo menú “rápido”. Comenté que no es correcto que los clientes reciban porciones más pequeñas mientras pagan más. Es importante que otros sepan que, a veces, las nuevas administraciones pueden tratar de implementar cambios sin la debida transparencia. Tengan cuidado al ordenar cantina para que no los den por sentado.
La comida estaba regular. Pero el tamal que compré lo tuve que tirar a la basura porque estaba muy malo , sabía mal y tenía mal olor. El cerdo asado no tenía ningún sabor. Sin embargo el bistec de cerdo estaba bastante bueno. Fue mi primera vez en el lugar y puedo garantizar que va a ser la última.
El precio es bien elevado en el internet dice un precio y en el establecimiento tienen otro por ejemplo carne ripiada el internet $9.99 allí 12.99 Carne en masas internet 10.99 allí 16.99 1.4 de carne ripiada y 2.4 de carne en bolas 58.00 dólares The price is very high in the internet it says a price and in the establishment they have another for example carne ripiada the internet $9.99 there 12.99 Carne en salsa internet 10.99 there 16.99 1.4 of carne ripiada and 2.4 of meat en salsa 58.00 dollars
Cuando enpeze estaba bien y parece cambian mucho aunque dice que no de chef 👩🍳 porque cada semana la cantina sabe horrible hasta fui a dar a hospital muy mala la comida 🥗 y solo una la que está encantada de la cantina es amable yo que las demás son muy groceras hasta te tiran el teléfono 📞 y no te dejan hablar y último la comidas parecen del día anterior no le recomiendo a nadie si no se quiere enfermar 😢😢
Good food with good proces, however the service is inconsistent.
Blonde lady was a bit rude and food wasn't that good
The food is alright a little salty but ok... what is awful here is the service.. i have never seen such bad customer service in my life. its like they don't want you to come back. The waitresses spend time talking to themselves not serving.. they talk spanish so the guy in front of me will not understand but i heard what they said... and 3 times i have been back (because i have to) They don't smile at you it is a chore to serve your meal.. awful..
Came looking for good Latin food for dinner, however the food was just mediocre. The chicken in red sauce was bland and discolored. Oxtails were not worth the price of $20. I received one big round and 5 little ones and a lot of sauce. The meat was tough and tasted old. Staff was friendly tho.
Don’t waste your money buying Arroz imperial. Cheap ingredients, very little taste.

Pesimo lugar, he venido por años pork vivo cerca y de hace un tiempo para aca, ha cambiado muchisimo, pesimos un oan con tortilla con solo cebolla y vino la tortilla plaim, no le pusieron cebolla, pesimos tambien un croassant y lo pedi tostado, y primero se les ilvido k habia pedido el croassant y despues al rato cuando me lo dieron estaba tan blando que no Lo podia cojer con las manos, en fin, 5 quejas de clientes tambien observamos en nuestra estancia alli de media hora, pesimo lugar !
Ya no es lo mismo que antes. Muy caro, baja calidad y poca comida. Es una lástima.
The food is horrible 😫
Crazy prices to high
A real 'greasy spoon'
Giving it one star is too much, terrible service, the food tastes bad, the price ratio is $30 for a full meal of rice, oxtail and pumpkin plus tip. Darle una estrella es mucho, pesimo atencion la comida sabe mal , wl precio relacion 30 dollares una completa de arroz rabo y calabaza mas propina
Ase 4 días compre 4 comidas para mi personal.. 3 platos y fueron 41 dolares cuando llege sentí el olor de. Una cómoda podrida. Eso me da un coraje. Si no ganan billete solamente que sierren y ya. Por qué benden comida podrida?????
Primera vez que lo visito, los peores tamales que me he comido , lamentablemente los tuve que votar, olian mal como que llevaban dias que los recalentaban, no me percate porque me los dieron en una bandeja tapados con papel de aluminio. Las trabajadoras atentas, es una pena que los tamales estaban pesimossss...no quisiera ve los otros alimentos. no lo recomiendo nunca
The Lady had an attitude when I called for a pickup for no reason.
Horrible customer service, everyday is getting worse and worse.
If you have a cantina they will not deliver they don't care about costumes
This place is horrible worse customer service ever. The most rudest women staff you can imagine.
Me and a friend Got really sick from eating at this place i was in the hospital with batieria en my stomach from eating at this place after a week and a half still recovering my lawyer will be contacting them for my medical bills
I ordered a breakfast cost me 5.98 and the portion that i got was ridiculous.
Horrible place! No manners and very rude.
3 days in a row I show up 30 minutes before their “close” time and doors are closed. I know, they just look over and refuse to even acknowledge. It’s 7:30, half hour before they close and again the same thing, same treatment. Horrible place. Not coming back
Horrible horrible customer service!!!! I just got off the phone with the suppose manager because I had someone pass away in my family and explained to them I couldn't pass Friday so if they could give it to me for Wednesday substitute (mind you my husband and my sis in law buy cantina from the frequently that's 100$ we spend)and she was rude ,no sympathy what's so ever to my mourning and flat out rejected my offer, I rather go somewhere else than be disrespected from an establishment I spend so much money on!!!
Two employees made fun of my hair i guess they didnt think i knew spanish but i do lol horrible experience never coming bad awful customer service
The prices that are posted on the menu that it's on the wall are cheaper than what they charge you and when I asked why they told me they are just incorrect, I asked for a menu to go to see the prices and they told me they didn't have. Legally they have to change you for the prices posted on the menu that is on wall ,I didn't complain but I will never going back .
Horrible service 😳 I’m nice a always understanding busy places but this place is very rude , I was standing there with my coworkers and they never ask us can I help you! And we wait for almost 7 minutes and another guy came and the lady stated serving him 🥺 I ask her do you guys have numbers because we are here waiting 😱 so wao I told my friends to come here because I remember to come here before and the food is good and my friend said wao what a rude people ! By the way and here eating my food and is horrible taste what happened?? This place change owners? Or kitchen staff and I found peace of aluminum inside my beans 😤🤯😖 and spring mad
The worker is in the business, 6 pm, I called 7 times right now and she doesn’t bother to answer the phone. Talk about service! I am in the parking lot right in front of the restaurant, it’s pouring rain… why won’t the girl answer the phone? Is cleaning the floor more important than taking care of customers? No problem, I will take my business elsewhere
We have been buying food for both Thanksgiving and Christmas from this place for the past 5 years. Up until recently, the food quality was excellent. However, the ownership of this establishment changed and the food quality has been abysmal. We ordered some pork for Thanksgiving and it all had to be thrown away. The pork had an awful smell to it. But we figured that they may have had an off day. For Christmas Eve dinner, we purchased the sliced pork for 30 people and it was awful. The pork actually smelled rotten. Everyone that ate it got sick and threw up. I am already disputing with my credit card company. Awful experience and clearly the change in ownership has been for the worse. A shame because this establishment has always been run exceptionally and with some great tasting food.
The food is okay the girls that serve are not to friendly and you feel being rushed to get what you want to eat. Dont go past 7pm because the food is hard and dried out. Can't ask question without being looked at bad. Overall experience for being my first time, it's a little less than okay. Personally, not going again.
The food is not good at all and they keep the food for days maybe weeks on the open hot glass and there attitude is omg nasty rude I don’t know how this people are still open
