"Beautiful restaurant with a fantastic view. I've eaten there quite a few times now, and, with one minor exception, all the food has been delicious. Wait staff very attentive, although some language barriers, and they could have been a little more up on the items on the menu."

"I've eaten in plenty of top rated restaurants through out NYC and NJ. Son Cubano is a beautiful place with a beautiful view. The food I rated it fair because that's exactly what it is. Not what I expect from such a classy place. Many spanish restaurants at a quarter of the cost beats them any day. They cut corners and overcharge you for the food they serve. Total disapointment. I've tried them three times and everytime a strikeout. The drinks are good. Although the waiter was a gentleman his helpers rushed you, like if your in a marathon. Removing your drinks without finishing. Continuely asking if you were done with your drink. Not to mention at the time I went, there weren't many people. Made no sense. I won't be going back."

"Went with a friend for Easter Saturday luncheon and food was great again. THe noise level was a little bit on the loud side as there was a big party next to us but not to level that it was disturbing.

Service was excellent - I wanted a glass of wine only bc my friend had to drive and waiter brough bottle to let me taste first which is not standad in a lot of other restaurants.

View of course is stunning - who does not love NYC skyline and I cannot wait for weather to get warm enough to go there for aperitif and snacks in evening."

"Excellent cuban food with view to match. Live music on the weekends is fun and not too loud. Great addition the neighborhood. Service is very good and the hostess will honor special requests, when possible. Reservations are a must on Friday and Saturday nights."

"The place itself is lovely, excellent decor, nice chic bar area, amazing view of the city. Live music was very good. But expensive, you pay a lot for that view, you even have to pay for parking. The food is decent, but not the best Cuban food available in New Jersey by far, especially for the price. This is more a special occasions place or good for the bar scene."
