They don't have a waitlist though so you just kinda gotta wait and it's first come first serve. We sat at the bar and just snatched a table when we saw someone leave. If you come here you should DEFINITELY get a mojito! They're HUGE and delicious and STRONG. My friends (who don't drink alcohol much) had a couple sips and were gone we had to walk around the square after to sober up! I got the ropa vieja and thought it was delicious! The beef was super flavorful and tender. I was a bit disappointed that they only gave two tiny plantain slices cause it was good and I wanted more. The rice and beans were pretty average, the beans were extremely plain, definitely could've been better. I would definitely come back to try a Cubano though since that's what they're known for and my friend who got one almost melted when she took a bite cause it was so delicious (I took a bite too and it really was very good!). Definitely recommend this place! I will say the service is a bit slow because it was packed but servers were very nice!

We ordered the mixed seafood ceviche, which was very delicious and a huge plate for two, as well as the calamari. Those two were honestly filling for the two of us. The calamari was made great as well, it was not overly tough and the batter was great and it comes with two different sauces to dip it in. The ceviche came with a lot of seafood and fried platanos to accompany it. The service was great and the overall vibe in there was fun. This is a cute date spot if you want something chill but want to dance, great for double dates too. We will definitely be back, especially for the Mojitos :D

Solid 2 stars though it has the potential for much more…read more Waitress was good, though the host sat a party of 6 right next to my wife and me even though the entire restaurant was wide open. I don't blame a construction crew for being loud (I've been loud myself out with the guys), but really? MIT could've easily made the experience much more enjoyable to have some distance and privacy. Food was okay - I ordered the Vaca Frita at the recommendation of the waitress. It wasn't "crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside," it was stringy and tough. It was too long between being served and the waitress showing up again to replace it since my wife was almost finished with her Cuban Sandwich (too much. I stare and too little meat). The rice and beans were excellent and the fried plantains were hot and tasty. I desperately wanted to like this restaurant since I don't fly to Miami any more. Having looked over the website and FB pages, it appears they focus more on the bar scene than the restaurant side of business. Oh well. I may try again.

Great service from Mariana at this location of D' Cuban Cafe. Located near the Marietta Square…read moreinside the Marietta Square Market, D'Cuban offered a variety of Latin dishes in a food court setting including a central bar surrounded by Cajun, vegan, Asian, Italian and burgers among others including bubble teas. For my late lunch I selected the tostones, which was listed as a shareable item. It came with a choice of meat toppings and I selected ropa viejo. Mariana shared two different options for preparation and opted for the grilled with onions. I was given a buzzer to notify when ready. My lunch date, a friend from PTA days who was visiting had selected this location due to her liking of another food court vendor. Definitely options for everyone in your group! Her food order was ready for pickup as I waited for mine to be prepared. We selected seating inside, as outside was also an option. My wait was short and pleasantly surprised by the large portions received. The tostones were large and plentiful! Had ample to share and take home. Everything was hot, fresh and meat well marinated with spices and onions. The accompanying sauce was an aioli that lacked a bit in flavor, and really not needed due to flavorful food. I believe it was for dipping plantain and mixed nicely with a spicy sauce Mariana suggested. I will definitely return again! Only caveat was parking. Ample space when I went, but confusing. The row closest to entry had paid parking signage, and the row closest to street had 2 hour parking with no apparent fees. Upon exit, some cars had tickets and several people were pondering why. May have exceeded the allotted time, so be mindful when parking. Overall, a good alternative to the eateries on the square.

Despite it being a…read morebit farther than our typical distance threshold, we decided to take our son and my in-laws out for a good Cuban lunch last weekend, and thankfully it did not disappoint. As a first generation Cuban-American born and raised in Miami and married to a Cuban man, I am happy to report that Cuban Diner is the real deal. This is authentic Cuban food that is as good as the Cuban food easily found all over Miami. We started with croquetas and mariquitas. I ordered the bistec empanizado, hubby ordered the vaca frita, my son ordered the ropa vieja, my MIL orders the palomilla, and my FIL ordered a papa rellena and tamal along with a natural guava juice. We all shared bites of our plates with each other and everyone agreed that everything was absolutely delicious. My favorite was the vaca frita, so I stole a good bit from hubby and I also loved my FIL's guava juice. Service was good, but we got there shortly after opening so we had the place to ourselves. We noticed as it got busier, service definitely slowed considerably, but there was only one server for the whole place and one more handling to go orders. The one server did a fantastic job despite being the only one for multiple tables, but I did notice one couple left in frustration when they were not attended in a timely manner. I loved that they offer a total of 3 sides with the entrees, so you don't have to compromise on sides. I really enjoyed our meal and will be back to try more things on their menu soon. I definitely recommend Cuban Diner, but urge you to pack your patience if you go when there is a crowd. The good news is that the food will be well worth the wait!

The server checked on me often with having to interrupt the book I was reading. Everything was clean with a great ambient lighting that wasn't too bright.

The salsa was a tad hot for but I'm also a wimp when it comes to spicy.

Chips and salsa were good -- the salsa was really tasty! We added a small cheese dip, almost $7 for a small serving "bowl". Liked it but for that price, maybe a larger portion would be good? We ordered the steak fajitas to split. Portion was nice for two of us, able to make about 5 with the items. Homemade flour tortillas were nice. The refried beans were a bit bland and we don't each much rice. Overall slightly under 4 stars, maybe 3.8. Staff were a bonus!

Stopped in for dinner on a Tuesday evening around 8:00pm…read more First impression upon arrival was "sweet patio". The restaurant is inside an old house with a massive wrap around porch featuring plenty of covered outdoor seating. As we walked to the hostess stand we noticed a sign stating they lost their liquor license. This was a massive let down as I was excited for a margarita. We almost left but decided to give it a shot. Inside was a pretty standard Mexican restaurant decor. The place was clean and looked to be well kept. Our server didn't seem too excited about life and was a bit slow and unenthusiastic. Brought our chips and salsa pretty quick and took our drink order. When he came back with our waters and soda we placed our food order. I wanted a Carne Asada which I was told is actually no longer available. This is completely bonkers to me. A staple dish at any Mexican restaurant. So I ordered something else that has skirt steak in it. Super confusing how they couldn't do that particular dish. Overall the food we ordered was actually really good. Prepared well and full of flavor. Nice size portion. Unfortunately the lack of service and margaritas really makes it tough to return. Follow me on IG: danny_runsforbeer

I'm not a huge latte drinker but he did say it was delicious. Now that mojito refresher...Definitely refreshing! So flavorful. Not let's speak on the owner Luis for just a second. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with the biggest smile and welcoming voice. He gave a quick detailed rundown of all the items offered and where some item brands and origins. It is small but very clean and cozy inside. The hours are awesome so you can grab breakfast and/or lunch Monday-Friday. I only wish there was one weekend day offered but he needs time for family and rest. But I'd love to come by on a weekend to enjoy coffee, company and read a good book at the counter. So if you happen to be near Marble Mill Rd in Marietta and are in search of a flavorful meal, please don't hesitate to stop by and enjoy something from Luis.

We sat at the bar for a beer and chips while we got a takeaway order. Food took a long time, but again, it was crowded. I tend to always get the carnitas for my first visit to any Mexican restaurant. Not very good. They packaged the pork apart from the sauce, which I thought was smart. But by the time I got home, they were rock-hard, dry, and virtually inedible. Not smart. Rest of food was ok. In a crowded category like Mexican cuisine, you probably have to do better. Maybe we should have dined in, so I will try again and update this review when I do.
