We were excited to try as the menu looked great. I order the veggie paella which was disappointing to put it nicely. It was yellow rice with cauliflower and artichokes (weird combo) with tons of olives. The other entree was ropa vieja which tasted pretty good other than it was served room temperature. The drinks looks pretty but did not seem to have any alcohol. The oddest part of the whole experience was that the food was served by a man holding a baby. The staff was more concerned with this beautiful baby than the customers. We will not return. read more

Even keeping it low key with some Empanadas my first time last year, seems like there's a different cook now because flavors that are being touted as Cuban, were really missing this time and came across as South American at this stylish Cuban spot in Tarrytown. Nothing against South American flavors- but if I wanted those type of flavors, I know where to go and if I want to eat Cuban food, then I'm expecting a combination of those African flavors mixed with Spanish ones that should be more pronounced in Cuban cooking- but are missing here. My husband recently settled on Cube Inn for their pork. Tender it was, rice isn't a typical grain- but was edible and black beans- well..... Service from our waitress was weak. The ambience remains lively and people are really digging in. But I rather get a true Cuban taste elsewhere. read more

The Cube Inn is just one of those places that you HAVE to go to. The food is amazing, the place is clean, the ambience is beautiful and above all, the customer service is just wonderful. My husband and I met the owner (Megan) and she was such a delight to talk to. Super accommodating, kind and helpful. And the staff goes above and beyond for everyone's needs. This is- hands down- our favorite restaurant to go to. (PS: their empanadas are to die for!) You need to visit this little gem in Tarrytown! read more

Cool little spot with Cuban/Caribbean food. You know I had to go with the Cuban Sandwich. Unfortunately It was below average in taste and not nearly enough roasted pork, pickles etc. I did order the ham croquettes and they were fine. I find way better Cuban Sandwiches in almost any spot in NYC. Service was fine no complaints but on a hot day they keep the door open so it gets warm inside. read more

Cute town, nice location but the food was very disappointing. How ca a restaurant not master white rice? It was mushy and the steak not so tasty. Cooks need help! Kube-Out for us! read more

The food was good. We sat outside (which these days we always try to do). If you follow me at all, you know we like any kind of Spanish/Latin cuisine but we judge it pretty hard (having a great Cuban cook in the family). The food was really good. I had the "Flying Saucer"... and I'm not sure if that's really a Cuban thing, but it was enjoyable. My husband had the Ropa Vieja and he really liked it. He had black beans which were really tasty and a side salad. My biggest criticism was the service. The waitress was very nice but she seemed to forget about us after our meal. The food came out very slow. Also, the guy who brought us the check disappeared with our credit card for too long. I had to actually go ask what was going on it took so long. So all that is really the reason they lose a star. read more

Came here for dinner on a Tuesday. We were able to get right in-- table for 4. Covid compliant, masks required. The decor follows the theme, same with the music-- all very welcoming. The menu has a good variety of appetizers, plates and drinks (specialty drinks too). We got the empanadas (which had barley any filling in them), the ceviche (maybe half of the martini glass it came in was filled with the portion they gave us-- NOT $16 worth), shrimp croquet shrimp (good portion but, a little neutral in flavor), pork sandwich with fries (good flavors and nice portions). They do have some very tasty sauces for dipping that they make in house. All in all, the ambiance was great but, the food was overpriced and the portions were very small. read more

I visited during the Tarrytown restaurant week promotion. I got a classic cuban with fries and drink and it was delicious! I highly recommend trying their cuban. I look forward to trying other sandwiches and others from their menu the next time. The service was friendly and they were open for indoor dining when i was there. read more

First time at The Cube Inn without any reservations, we were seated right away. The decor made you feel like you were in Cuba all along. Started with their classic mojito that was mixed well with rum, mint, and their secret touch. After reviewing food menu, appetizers that caught our attention were the empanas de carne and shrimp along with some tostones con mojo. For my main course, I went for the skirt steak and scrambled eggs from the brunch menu. While we waited for our food, our Cuban coffee arrived. The richness taste and smell of coffee fulfilled my caffeine craving, delicious. Appetizers arrived, both the beef & shrimp empanadas were delicious. You can taste the ingredients so well along with the tostones con mojo, great choice. Main course came out shortly, and I enjoyed every bite of my skirt steak, home fries with scrambled eggs. Lastly the flan was made just right, not too sweet or falling apart. Coconut mojito had me back in the Caribbean, perfect for a cold winter day in Tarrytown. Great family ambiance and excellent service. Will definitely come back soon! read more

My honest review would be a 3.5. It's a nice little spot of Main Street located in sleepy hallow. The staff was friendly and the locations decor is kind of cool. The food was good but rather small for the price. That was my only gripe. I expected the sandwich and empanadas to be larger. If I go back it would be for happy hour which contains much better deals (cubano and drink for 20 as opposed to 28). I think this place has tons of potential and if I'm the area I'd try it out again. read more

I've been trying to dine here, for a while, and finally got the opportunity. This restaurant is ALWAYS busy, especially when we visit the Sleepy Hollow area, during the Halloween time frame. The restaurant is not large, but they have outdoor seating and beautiful decor. Even the bathrooms were nicely decorated and very clean. Our server, Kate, was exceptional. She kept us very comfortable throughout the meal and always had a genuine smile. The Bongo Bowl, with chicken, was delicious. The chicken was placed on a bed of greens and drizzled with an avocado cream dressing. Each bite was full of flavor and every ingredient made it very enjoyable. The side of tostones was delicious. The tostones were not dry and the mojo dipping sauce was full of spices and savory. I highly recommend this eatery and now I know why it always has a waiting list. They don't take reservations, btw, and don't blame them. read more

I'd say the food was just OK. I don't need to return to eat here for a very empty restaurant. The service was not good. Our glasses were empty pretty much the entire meal we wanted to order more drinks. She never returned. She never asked to see how our food was until we were near finished. And not a place I need to return to. read more

The cuban sandwich was not it! The steak sandwich was okay. The fries were also okay. I DID NOT LIKE THAT FACT THAT THE BARTENDER WAS USING HER HANDS with no gloves to prepare our drinks. She was cutting fruits and handling money this is very on sanitary. read more

I came with my sister here because the places look promising, is located on Main Street in Tarrytown, so you already know that the parking is going to be quite difficult. The place is a very cute spot, with beautiful decoration; a nice bar the restaurant has a few tables outdoor with heater and indoor. The menus have a good selection of Cuban dishes authentic. For my food selection, I had the Steak Sandwich a sliced prime rib marinated in mojo sauce with sautéed onions and Swiss or American served on Cuban bread with a side of French fries. The Steak Sandwich was cook medium, super tender, very juicy, and super delicious the flavor just was great, did not look that big but was very fulfilling. The staff was very friendly and did great work serving food. read more

The Cube Inn - Steak sandwich - Cuban Near Me - Tarrytown, New York

The Cube Inn is a cute but very small restaurant in Tarrytown, NY. The tables are very close so it always feels a little packed, the music isn't too loud so you can have a normal conversation and the decor is dated but nice, a mini Cuba feel, kinda. Really tasty food but poor service. Service: 4 out of 10 Food taste: 10 out of 10 Price: $$ SERVICE: 6:45 We sat down. 7:00 we ordered appetizers and drinks. 7:10 ordered dinner. 7:26 dinner came out, and there were no apps. They were sent to the wrong table. 7:33 the apps came out. 7:40 asked for the check and to go containers. 7:54 asked for the check again, the waitress forgot. 8:07 finally left. We had to chase down the waitress to get a refill for one drink, never asked how we were doing, got no other refills, looked right past us most of the time and seemed to be the only one working. Understandable when you're busy, but there's 10 tables or so inside, hard to miss a group of four. FOOD: We ordered 5 empanadas for appetizers. They're $3.50 each and they have 5 different flavors. We ordered 2 beef, 2 shrimp and 1 chicken. Good flavor, decently filled and a nice crispy and flaky crust. I ordered a steak sandwich $19, and added fries for $3. The meat was well seasoned and an okay amount on the bread but I would have liked a bit more of it. The bread was lightly toasted and was a little bland. The fries were the star of the meal, they were absolutely delicious and really well seasoned. My wife got the Ropa Vieja $28 with yellow rice, black beans and maduras. She loved it. It was well seasoned, the right consistency and a good balance of all the flavors you'd expect. Looked nice too! One of my daughters got the Pollo Ajillo $26, which is chicken in a garlic sauce and while she said it was okay, I really liked it. It was a "little" salty but it worked well. The flavors were vibrant and in your face and not overwhelming. Would order to go before sitting down and eating again. Food was definitely worth it though the service was really lacking. read more

This place is AMAZING! We were visiting Sleepy Hollow from MA and were pleasantly surprised by this place. The food is SO SO good! We started with beef empanadas and they were hands down the best empanadas I've ever had. The "crust" was so flaky and the filling was insane. I ordered the mojo pork for my entree, again AMAZING! The cocktails were great and the staff were attentive and friendly. The owner was there the night we went and told us about a few tourist attractions we had to see and even gave us a map of the town. They seriously went above and beyond. I don't have a single negative thing to say about this place. If you're in town YOU MUST GO! We loved it so much we went back before we left and the second time was just as good! read more

Adorable new restaurant on Main Street. We did the weekend outdoor dining that Tarrytown offers by shutting down Main Street so that you can dine al fresco. All of the tables were properly social distanced and the staff was all very friendly and wearing masks. We got the Cuban and it was amazing. The sandwiches are huge and come with fries which is reasonably priced. I also had a lovey Spanish red wine (I didn't get the name but it was the closest to a Pinot noir) and they had a good selection of signature drinks. They aren't doing take out or delivery yet but it's coming soon and we will for sure be back for another weekend on the street. read more

Finely opened after six to nine month wait. We were informed that the opening was on Wednesday 8/5 at 11:00 we arrived at 11:00 for lunch and were told otherwise, opening at 17:00 for take out & dine in. Came back on Thursday 8/6 for dinner had a 30 min wait for table. Dinner was dine in only, no take out & no wine, only mixed cocktails. Indoor/outdoor seating was appropriately socially distanced. The tables are sanitized between seatings. The staff are very enthusiastic local youngster, you may need to be patient. The menu is limited. We ordered Empanadas - 2 beef, 1 Shrimp, EL Cubano, Mojo Pork & Ropa Vieja. The Empanadas were moist, well seasoned and tasty. I liked the dough. Shrimp also very tasty & cooke properly, they were not shoe leather tough, moist & juicy. My El Cubano was delicious, properly made. It's decent sized sandwich. I ate only half. Never got to taste the Mojo Pork or Ropa Vieja. My sons devoured before I new it. The plates come with a choice white or yellow rice, black beens and a side fries (yuca, french, sweet potato), maduros. Both plates looked very good. Prices are very reasonable read more

Service was great--friendly and would check-in to see if we needed anything--and every bite I had was delicious!!! Our table shared Masas de Cerdo (pork wings) and Frituras de Camarones (shrimp fritters). The pork was so tender and beautifully seasoned, and the fritters with that sauce...just fantastic. I had the chorizo burger and loved that as well. If I lived closer I'd be a regular! As it is, I will definitely be back. read more

(6/12/22 Visit) I have been looking forward to checking this place out and had the best experience. The food is amazing. We had the empanadas- beef, chicken, and shrimp- all were delicious, I can't decide which I like best. I need to go back and try the guava cheese one. We also had the Pan Con Lechon/Pork Sandwich and it was great. The pork is perfectly marinated and has a tasty garlic mojo on yummy Cuban bread with savory fries. They have a full bar with a wonderful bartender. He is friendly and so attentive...he makes awesome Mojitos! I had the Flamingo Mojito which is a blend of Silver rum, strawberries, mint, Club soda, and jalapeño. It was refreshing with great flavor. The restaurant has beautiful Cuban decor and they also have outside dining. Delicious food and super friendly service, I can't wait to go back. Highly recommend! read more

My friend and I were excited to try some Cuban Food in Tarrytown and The Cube Inn was conveniently located on Main Street but was disappointing overall. I split a Frita Cubana sandwich with my friend. Don't mistake her smile this was before we tasted it. The sandwich was dry and no amount of condiments could save it. To give it a trying chance we sat and ate our meal in silence trying not to comment on it, shaking our heads and only remarking "salty". It was indeed very salty. The fries were not your typical fries and loved restaurant fries but rather a hybrid between normal and the texture and taste of curly fries only adding to the saltiness of the meal. The maduros were kind of tart but ok overall. We came before the dinner rush and there were only 2 other people in the restaurant sitting at the bar. Our server was very attentive to us and we were seated right away and given our drinks fairly quickly but our food took a very long time to come out. While we were waiting other people had started coming in and had gotten their food ahead of ours. It was a disappointingly long wait time for subpar food. EDIT: Owner messaged me privately on top of commenting on my review publicly and I don't feel welcome at the restaurant anymore. read more

What brought me to The Cube Inn: Social Media Great job - not reflective of my experience. Perhaps the fact that they named it CUBE INN and not CUBAN makes sense now. Calling it a Cuban restaurant is a mistake. Nothing about this felt like a Cuban spot worth making the trip for (we drove from NYC). Why: This was a Saturday night at 8pm and the vibe (country and rock playing) with decor that's very confusing, the service (lax/ unwelcoming/ slow to the punch). The food: served at room temperature, rice tastes like minute rice and the ropa vieja is just not right (very tough to chew and just not enjoyable), you failed the smell test. And by that I mean the taste test. The seating for 2 was limited and the chairs were very uncomfortable. The bartenders took 8 min (I timed it) to even look at us and the drinks we meh... How can you improve: I really want all businesses, especially in a small town like this to succeed. 1) SERVICE SERVICE SERVICE 2) Atmosphere was confusing - felt more like an INN for real. Step it up with the vibe. 3) Food and Drinks- charging pretty steep prices for a very tough ropa vieja and skimpy/sad "tapas." The flavor (sabor) of the ropa vieja was a 6/10 yet the texture (toughness) made it overall was a 2. The experience, service, vibe, food, overall gives this spot hard 3/10. Maybe you bank on brunch bc dinner was nothing to be desired. will give this spot another shot in 1 month for brunch and see how it goes. The CUBE INN (cute play on words) didn't do the Cuban culture or food justice in anyway. But all in all we made the best of it. Oh well. $120 bucks down the chute. read more

A great new family owned restaurant/bar with awesome food,drinks and service. A little taste of Cuba in downtown Tarrytown. The atmosphere is on point and very warm. The pork wings are not to be missed. Tender and perfectly cooked. The chicken wings are tasty and crunchy and one of the best I've had. Our server/bartender "Ali" was on top of everything. She made a fantastic drink called the Spicy Mezcalita which is now my new favorite. Crazy good! Warm and very friendly staff. Great simple menu with nice options. Covid protocols are in place including an outdoor seating option. Support local business. read more

Saturday afternoon about 2:00. Table of 3. We were immediately greeted & seated. Owner on premises and so nice. Cuban sandwich= yum! Burger cooked precisely. Sweet potato fries Flying Saucer sandwich- satisfying. There's a salad with pineapple worth a look. I liked it & I'm not a salad fan. I strongly recommend the key lime pie AND key lime cake. Oh oh oh oh . It's a small room but quite comfortable. Lively not raucous. Happy people all around from 8 to 87. read more

The food was very mediocre not Cuban food if you wanna say it that way, the service wasn't so great and honestly, the only thing that had any type of flavor was the empanada and that was it. Everything else was lacking that Cuban flavor. read more

The newly-opened Cube Inn brings a fresh perspective to Main Street's restaurant scene with delicious Cuban food. As with any new restaurant, there are still a few hiccups to be worked out, but this is already a must-try spot that has tremendous potential. It's perfect either for a full meal or enjoying a few cocktails over small plates. Service was friendly and quick from start to finish for drinks and food alike. We chose to eat outside, and appreciated that they took their COVID precautions seriously: tables were properly spaced, a plastic screen shielded us from pedestrians on the adjacent sidewalk (and them from us), and servers were always masked. I only got a glance at the beautifully decorated bar and dining room, so we'll have to save that space for a more pleasant time. We started with one of their specialty mojitos - the centerpiece of their bar menu - and a Bacardi and Coke (Cuba libre). Both were well-made and fairly priced ($14 for the mojito and $10 for the well drink). Mojitos can be fairly labor intensive to mix, and I was surprised to see five of them on their menu. But they came out right quick, so whatever they are doing behind the bar is working. We also ordered maduros ($5) and empanadas ($7 for 2). The maduros, fried sweet plantains, were some of the best we've ever had anywhere - including in Puerto Rico. They were ripe, beautifully fried, and well seasoned. The shrimp and beef fillings in the empanadas were super flavorful, and the exterior of the shell was textbook golden brown. The interior of the dough was just underdone, suggesting perhaps that the oil had gotten a bit too warm, but the overall dish was still quite pleasing. If we hadn't already ordered our mains, the drinks and starters were so good that we probably would have worked our way right down the appetizer menu. Another time. We ordered sandwiches for our main course: the pork sandwich ($14) and the flying saucer ($7). The pulled pork was flavorful, and the garlic mojo sauce was on point. The flying saucer - a grilled ham and swiss - also was good, but it would have been even better with a bit more (and more fully melted) cheese. The fries that came with both sandwiches were crispy but significantly over-seasoned (even for french fries), and could have used a dipping sauce. Bottom line: two strong and well-priced dishes. Dessert included a hit, and the only real miss of the meal. The key lime pie ($6) was rich and delicious with a sweet graham crust. The portion of homemade flan, however, was approximately the size of a jewelry box. If it was the most sublime flan ever created, then I might have seen the value of a $6 dessert, but regrettably it was overdone. Finally, the reason we ended up dining in at the Cube Inn: the takeout menu. The takeout menu is posted prominently on their website (along with the phone number) and on the side of their building. All of this left me puzzled and annoyed when I called to order, only to be told that they are not yet offering takeout. I see the wisdom in this cautious strategy: we've been to many a new restaurant that struggles to get plates out quickly, and as dine-in customers we certainly noticed and appreciated getting our food and drink with truly remarkable speed. It's also a beautiful restaurant, and we're so glad we ended up enjoying a date on Main Street. All that said, please don't advertise a service you aren't offering. We were so impressed with Cube Inn, we were glad to see it busy on a weeknight, and we will be back soon. You can't get this kind of food anywhere else in Tarrytown, and we haven't been this excited about a new local restaurant in quite a while. Any nitpicking is just that -- minor and easily-remedied criticisms of fundamentally delicious food. We can't wait to explore more of the menu, not to mention the mojitos. read more

First time there, went with my mom for early dinner. Felt Our server was kinda dry to us...not so friendly. The bartender was munch friendlier.
