1958 Cuban Cuisine

Reviewed By Melonie S

We made a reservation for 4 on a Sunday night at 6:30 and we were glad we did. The restaurant was busy with some large groups celebrating birthdays. Adult birthdays. They honored our reservations on time. The first thing we noticed when we opened the door was how loud the restaurant was. It was not filled to capacity but it was loud. Loud enough where you are yelling at the person across the table from you. We had some questions about the menu and the waiter was very well-versed in how the food was prepared and it's ingredients. After we ordered, we received a very fresh basket of bread with a side of butter. We began with an appetizer of sweet plantains wrapped in bacon. The 4 plantains were very tasty and the perfect combo of sweet and salty.Although we didn't share, our table ordered the Paella Cubano, Bistec Empanizado, Bistec de Palomilla, and the Ropa Vieja. All of the meals came out fresh and hot. I really enjoyed my Paella Cubano. Both the portion and the amount of seafood was perfect for my meal. Other restaurants overwhelm you with a caldron of paella but this was just right. The portions for all of our meals was perfect for the price we paid. Most of us sent back a clean plate to the kitchen and we found some room for dessert.We ordered the Tres Leches and the Churros. Again empty plates. As a coffee snob, I would say the coffee was very good. The prices were very reasonable per couple after tax and tip ($80). Remember that's 1 appetizer, 4 entrees, 2 desserts, 4 coffees. You'll love that they present the check in an old cigar box. It's a BYOB. The service was very good and friendly. There is street parking or you can park at the train station across the street. We had the pleasure of meeting Luis, the owner, who graciously came over to our table and welcomed us and checked to make sure things were up to par. A very good dining experience but it's on the loud side.

Lidia's Cuban Kitchen

Reviewed By AndiamoAMagna

Restaurant is a byob, entrees we're pretty filing, and service is on the slow side. Had the skirt steak special with shrimp. Steak was flavorful and tender. Shrimps were tasty. Plantains were very good. I'm not Cuban, but I thought the food was pretty good. Would return.

Old Havana

Reviewed By janis e

A group of us went to Old Havana yesterday. The chicken had to flavor. The rice and beans were plain. The best thing was the salad. I was really disappointed especially for $16.00.
