I visited this establishment specifically to order a traditional Cuban colada. Before purchasing, I…read morespoke directly with the owner and asked if they made authentic Cuban coladas. He confidently confirmed that they did. I then specifically asked whether they prepared it with espuma (the sweet foam created by whipping the first drops of espresso with sugar), which is the defining characteristic of a proper Cuban colada. Once again, he assured me that they did. Unfortunately, what I received was not a colada. The employee prepared what was essentially black coffee with sugar added afterward. There was no espuma, no proper preparation process, and very little sugar, leaving the coffee noticeably bitter. After tasting it, I remained at the counter because I knew immediately that this was not what I had ordered. The owner noticed I was still waiting and asked what was wrong. I explained that the drink was not a colada and that it lacked the proper preparation. Rather than acknowledging the issue, he began explaining that his family previously owned the business and now he runs it. When I asked whether he was Cuban, because I was genuinely surprised by his understanding of such a basic Cuban coffee preparation, he responded that it doesn't matter whether sugar is added before or after because "it's the same thing." It is not the same thing. Anyone familiar with Cuban coffee knows that a colada is not simply coffee with sugar. The espuma is created by whipping sugar with the first concentrated drops of espresso before combining it with the remaining coffee. This process creates the signature flavor, texture, and presentation that distinguish a Cuban colada from ordinary sweetened coffee. What disappointed me most was not the poorly prepared drink--it was being told that an incorrectly made coffee was somehow the authentic version. If a business advertises Cuban coffee and claims to serve coladas, the staff and ownership should understand the basic preparation of one of the most iconic beverages in Cuban culture. For anyone unfamiliar with the proper process: 1. Brew strong Cuban espresso. 2. Pour the first few drops of espresso into a cup containing sugar. 3. Vigorously whip the sugar and espresso together until a light caramel-colored espuma forms. 4. Slowly add the remaining espresso while preserving the foam. 5. Serve as a colada. What I received was simply coffee with sugar added afterward and presented as a colada. Those are not the same thing. If you're looking for an authentic Cuban colada prepared traditionally, this was not my experience. Plus I added a second reference for you sir , A colada is a traditional, large-format Cuban espresso designed for sharing. It is made by brewing dark-roast espresso directly into a small amount of sugar, creating a thick, caramel-colored sweet foam called espuma. Served in a large cup with small plastic thimbles, it is meant to be passed around and sipped as quick shots.Follow these steps to make a traditional colada:What You'll NeedEspresso Maker: A standard Moka pot (cafetera)Coffee: Finely ground dark-roast coffee (e.g., Café Bustelo, La Llave)Sugar: 1 to 3 tablespoons of granulated white sugar or brown sugar (to taste)Equipment: A small mixing pitcher, a spoon, and a stack of small demitasse or plastic thimble cupsStep-by-Step InstructionsBrew the Coffee: Fill the bottom chamber of your Moka pot with water, just below the safety valve. Fill the metal funnel with your coffee grounds, leveling them off gently without over-packing. Screw the top on tightly and place it on the stove over medium heat.Prepare the Sugar: While the coffee is heating, add your sugar into a separate, heat-safe cup or metal pitcher.Catch the First Drops: Watch the top chamber of your Moka pot closely. As soon as the very first, thick, dark drops of coffee begin to emerge, pour about 1 teaspoon of this concentrated liquid directly into your sugar.Whip the Espuma: Vigorously whisk or beat the sugar and coffee drops together with a spoon for about 1 to 2 minutes. Keep whisking until it transforms into a pale, thick, peanut-butter-like paste.Combine: Once the rest of the coffee has finished brewing, remove the Moka pot from the heat. Slowly pour the hot coffee into your whipped sugar paste while stirring gently. The sweet foam (espuma) will rise to the top.How to ServePour the colada into your small sharing cups, leaving a nice layer of the sweet foam at the top of each serving.

I originally ordered through DoorDash thinking it was a traditional dine-in spot, but when I arrived, I realized the restaurant is currently closed for renovations and operating out of a food truck outside. Just a heads up: ordering through DoorDash isn't really worth it here--the prices are higher, and it's actually cheaper to order in person. There was a bit of a wait and a long line, but the staff was clearly working hard to keep things moving. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, which made a big difference. Now for the food--it was excellent. I cleaned my plate completely. One order was French toast sticks, scrambled eggs, and Beyond Meat (which I accidentally ordered, but honestly couldn't even tell it wasn't real meat). The second plate was grits, eggs, and salmon croquettes. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I have no complaints at all and would definitely go back. Just be prepared for the food truck setup and consider ordering in person instead of through an app!
