Description

This counter-serve spot pairs traditional Cuban dishes with Peruvian entrees. Diners order from a service line containing two food carts where sides, meats, and rice are intermingled. During the busy lunch rush, lines can get long and staff may rush you through the queue, sometimes before you see all the options near the register. While the menu includes platters and specials, feedback on the food varies, with some finding the seasonings satisfyingly classic and others calling them bland.
