    Very tasty Cuban food in Hoboken. We eat The Cuban sandwich, rice, and the Bistek a caballo and it was very good. My son was asking for more and more as you can see in the picture.

    This place is amazing. Crab guacamole was exceptional. Mojitos superb. Live music, perfect way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon. Pork wrap and shredded skirt steak in sauce. Delish. Service excellent

    First the mojito de hippy=amazing. Their churrasco plate was amazing. Perfectly balanced with the refreshing salad and the yuka. Then came the flan which was a perfect end to dinner.
