Alex WallaceDecember 9, 2011Cuban hash/sub the toast for toasted sandwich bread, make a cuban sloppy joe. This is heaven.
GinaMay 30, 2011Call them and made special plans for Memorial Day. Got there and they were closed for the holiday.
Patrick LesterJune 25, 2011The Ropa Viejo is awesome. Save just enough room to share some Cascos de Guayaba con Queso Crema before you go.
Scott NelsonApril 29, 2014The specials for drinks do not work on Foursquare!!!! Checked in...no special...staff no idea....
The pulled pork sandwich is amazing for lunch. Otherwise you can't go wrong with dia y noche.
The Lechon Asado is heavenly. I'm starting a campaign that they serve it for breakfast!
Today and tonight only - eat at Victor's 1959 Cafe and a portion of sales go to Kingfield & Lyndale neighborhoods to help funding of neighborhood art projects!
Antone HammersDecember 14, 2011Bay of Pigs is not like their Cubana sandwich, it is pork in mojo on bread. Nothing else, just in case you take what the menu describes the wrong way. Tastey food.
David YNovember 25, 2009Ropa vieja - marinated shredded beef. Savory. Excellent for dinner or a spicy breakfast!
Lisa PercyFebruary 16, 2014The food (dinner) was fine, just nothing special. I'd maybe try again for breakfast.- check out the happy hour - Tues thru Sat 4:30-6:30pm $4 wines $3 beers $4 Tropical Mimosas... to die for....
- try the Shrimp Creole! Not on the menu yet but just ask your server - it's delicious!
Rod WilkinsAugust 1, 2010Love this place! I got introduced to it earlier this month and now I'm addicted!
- Try the new "red espresso" drinks - they're awesome!
- bryan kennedyMarch 29, 2009Get there early for breakfast and order the Dia Y Noche and a Mango Pancake.
Luke MillerDecember 9, 2012Don't try and go for just drinks even though they were having a happy hour, they made us order food. Redhead server was rude.

"Lots of good chocolate to be found here, impeccably adorable interior and labeling. A little pricy—if you keep picking up more candy, that is."
