    Yuca fries
    Nicole G.

    Cuban food - yum! The food here is very authentic and tasty. The portions are MASSIVE - as in I don't even think I ate half of a meal. (Don't worry, the rest is in my fridge patiently awaiting the due attention I will give it tomorrow for lunch) The restaurant is in the heart of downtown and not far from Falls Park. The yucca fries were excellent and so was the chicken chop bowl. My daughter had the steak bowl, which I of course, tasted as well. The steak was decent too and a nice cut of meat, but could have been more flavorful. However... the sauces compensated for any flavor shortage on the steak as I happily dipped it into each one of them. I tried the garlic flavored one and the sweet red sauce - both were delicious. I came in on a bit of a whim, but I will likely be back to try more from the menu!

    One of my favorite quick service meals to have in Greenville! The owners and staff have such a cool concept going with the restaurants. I really like the Cuban inspired menu with healthy options to accompany and they get saucy too; homemade sauces to spice up your meal. There are several locations, sadly Charleston location recently closed, but they are all delicious. The slow roasted pork is what we go for usually, but sometimes I go for the leaner chicken option. All the proteins are delicious and you can customize as you go. I would recommend adding some veggies to the dishes, but outside of that, you are all set......well there is the sauce too. Honestly I buy a bottle of the curry mustard and the garlic jalapeño to keep my fridge stocked. I really like both sauces on pretty much any combo of food, but tacos at home are next level. Come for the good food and awesome people!

    Amazing FRESH and delicious! Don't let the "healthy" scare you off. This food is as good as any other! Super clean, friendly staff and a great value. Family owned AND super professional. Sometimes that's hard to come by. Eat inside or there are a couple of tables on the street. Better yet there's a beautiful courtyard just to the north that's a perfect spot for social distancing.

    Good deal on a Family Meal for 8. We had leftovers after our Sunday family dinner. Definitely going back next Sunday to feed our big crew.

    incompetent staff can't even put rice on my plate. Unwillingly paid 18$ for a handful of chicken in a styrofoam box.

    I was just sitting next to Paul C, the only 1 star review I can see for this place. Boomerest…read moreboomer I ever saw. With two women. Complained about his fries when he had about 3 left on the plate. Still given more fries. Appeared to backfire because he clearly wanted something free so he got one of the people with him to also complain. Apparently the man has never had anything besides Morton's iodized salt in his life. Staff was appropriately apologetic but ol Paul clearly wanted the senior complainer discount so took to yelp while sitting next to me one barstool over. Watched him type it over his shoulder. Meanwhile, my wife and I had 2 of the best cocktails we have ever had and a fantastic meal with bar staff that was attentive and super polite. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to anywhere.

I started with a Straffe Hendrik Quad, which was chefs kiss. It was a yummy treat to start the meal off with and be transported into being in Belgium. Not pictured was the charcuterie board and Brie appetizers that were all split and devoured. What was documented was the roasted duck breast with potatoes and asparagus. The duck was roasted perfectly with the skin, crispy for the texture and seasoned divinely. Yall the potatoes were crispy on the outside, well fluffy like little clouds inside, and had a punch of flavor. The asparagus was rich with a butter and lemon note. If a plate could sing! Zero notes. 10/10. My only draw back was I needed a pillow after the meal. Stuffed was I.

    There are meals, and then there are experiences so transcendent they seem to suspend time…read moreitself--this restaurant delivers the latter with breathtaking precision. From the moment you step inside, you are enveloped in an atmosphere that feels almost otherworldly. The lighting is soft yet intentional, casting a warm glow that dances across thoughtfully curated textures and finishes. Every detail, from the subtle fragrance in the air to the gentle cadence of the music, feels orchestrated to quiet the outside world and invite you into something rare. And then--the food. Each dish arrives not merely as a plate, but as a composition. Colors are layered like brushstrokes on canvas, aromas rise in delicate waves, and the first bite... the first bite is nothing short of revelatory. Flavors unfold with stunning complexity--bold yet balanced, indulgent yet refined. It is clear that every ingredient has been selected with care, every technique executed with mastery, and every pairing designed to evoke emotion. What sets this place apart, however, is not just technical excellence--it is intention. There is a story in every course, a quiet confidence in every presentation, and a sense that the kitchen is not just cooking, but creating. You don't simply eat here--you feel here. The service elevates the experience even further. Attentive without intrusion, knowledgeable without pretension, the staff moves with a grace that makes you feel both cared for and completely at ease. They anticipate needs before they arise and guide you through the evening with effortless sophistication. By the time the meal concludes, you realize something profound: this was not just dinner. It was a memory being crafted in real time--one that lingers long after the final bite, long after you've left your table, long after the night has ended. In a world saturated with good restaurants, this one dares to be extraordinary--and succeeds in a way that feels almost magical.
