Parking: easy, in a lot with many spaces. Food: Empanadas - shell was crispy and well-cooked. The shredded chicken filling was good, nothing special but still tasty. Would try a different filling next time. Overall rating 3/5. Cuban sandwich - the bread was thicker and more "sub"-like than many cubanos I have had in the past. Also had garlic cloves in it which was a nice surprise (I love garlic). Came with rice and beans. Pretty good, would get again. Overall rating 4/5. Ropa vieja - comes with beans and rice. Quite salty on its own, but balances out nicely when eaten with rice. Would get again. Overall rating 4/5. Guava & cheese empanada dessert - same size as the appetizer empanada. Delicious! The cream cheese goes very well with the guava and is well-balanced. Would get again. Overall rating 5/5.

2 out of 5 stars "Had high hopes, but the flavor just didn't…read morefollow through." The Jerk Pit Smokehouse definitely gives off that classic hole-in-the-wall vibe that foodies like us live for. It's tucked into a very nice part of Denver, surrounded by other restaurants, with people strolling and enjoying the neighborhood. The outdoor seating was actually a highlight--great atmosphere for soaking in the city while waiting on food. Inside, it's a cozy little spot, probably seats about 30 max, and has that smokehouse/jerk shack energy going for it. We were a party of five, and since we travel to eat, we always do family-style and sample a wide range of menu items. Here's what stood out (and what didn't): * Catfish Nuggets: The best thing we had--crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. * Jerk Wings (flats): Solid flavor and texture. Unfortunately, the small drumsticks were dry and overcooked. * BBQ Rib Tips: Good smoky taste, but they weren't as tender as we hoped. * Fried Okra: Cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside, not a trace of sliminess. Definitely appreciated this one! * Fried Pickles: Crunchy but lacked a flavor punch. * Smoked Brisket Chili: Disappointing--missing depth and any memorable flavor. * Mac & Cheese: Just okay. Needed more creaminess or seasoning to shine. * Chicken Wrap, Chicken Tenders & Fries: Tenders were overcooked and dry, and the wrap didn't stand out. Overall, the menu didn't deliver that "we've got to come back" experience we look for on our foodie adventures. There wasn't a standout dish that wowed us or made us want to tell our friends to try it. We also overheard what sounded like the chef in the back expressing frustration. Could've been an off day, but it felt like that tension showed up in the food. Sometimes you can taste when the kitchen isn't quite in harmony. This spot has potential, and the location really sets a nice scene, but for us, it missed the mark. Nothing was terrible, but nothing made us want more. Just didn't have that "wow" factor we look for when we eat our way through a new city.

We both got the jerk chicken, cabbage and red beans and rice. The jerk chicken was full of flavor, fall off the bone tender. The red beans and rice were some of the best ones I've ever had.

It's nice to get to experience diverse restaurants in Denver. Although this was Cuban food, there was a lot of other Latin inspirations on the menu as well. I got the old Cuban with less simple syrup. At first I thought it was too citrusy as I don't like sweet/sour drinks but after the first sip the prosecco and orange bitters paired so well together and it was refreshing. I also got the steak sandwich with chimichurri on the side. The shoestring fries are fun. It's all on the pricey end but it was a lot of food leftover so it's worth the price!

A great golden triangle dinner date stop!…read more If you haven't had the pleasure of trying Cuba Cuba yet, I highly recommend. I enjoyed a dinner here a few weeks ago and I still think about it. The menu is no fuss, to the ignorant it may be confusing but if you go in with a curious heart, ready to ask the staff questions, you're in for a treat. Based on our servers recommendation, I got the Puerco Frito, and WOW. Every bite was light and flavorful. I've been told that you really can't go wrong with any of the menu items, and based on what I tried, I have to agree with that sentiment. If you are lucky, they'll seat you in this massive room with one wall that's just windows, which makes for an even more relaxing dining experience. Give this place a try!
