I was very excited to hear that a Cuban restaurant delivered to my house in Clinton Hill. My roommates and I ordered 3 lunch specials: 2 steak sandwiches with salad, and 1 chicken sandwich with soup. Delivery arrived rather promptly and was pretty warm. I can't complain about service at all, but the food was TERRIBLE. Literally the worst meal I've eaten this year, and perhaps last. The food seemed to be prepared okay, and the ingredients were even fresh, but it was just simply DISGUSTING. The steak in the sandwiches was bland, dry, and rubbery. I've never until today had steak that tasted like cold cuts. The bread was harder than it should have been. My roommate said the chicken sandwich was okay, but I just can't believe that. The salads were 70% onions, an onion medely if you will, covered in a mayonaise-like pink dressing. Gross, gross, GROSS. My papa rellena was just off. The ground beef inside was okay, but the potato had an almost sour taste to it. It reminded me of the sour cheese on the steak sandwiches. Perhaps the worst of all was my roommate's soup. Simply put, they took the water they boiled the corn in, added more corn, added actual corn cobs (was this a mistake??), and called it soup. I paid $31 with tip for food I threw out after a few bites, and I feel a little sick now. I wanted to like this place, but I'll take Sophies Or Tina's in the city for Cuban fast food any day.
Pros: Average delivery time
Cons: THE FOOD WAS TERRIBLE.
