    A decent restaurant but the food was not as elevated as I expected from recommendation. In My chicken dish, the white meat was overbooked but the Cuban rice with cheese was quite good but salty. My husband’s Cuban sandwich had plenty of different meats but had very little flavor. We waited almost an hour before being seated despite our reservation. The noise was so loud that we couldn’t hear each other.

    This is our second visit. It has become a yearly lunch before the derby. Great service, great food, great energy… I have nothing negative whatsoever to say about this establishment. Everyone is kind and the service is impeccable. Can’t wait to return next year!

    Visiting from Houston for Derby week. Great food and great service. We were a group of 14 and everyone loved their food and the energetic atmosphere. Been here twice now and loved it both times.
