Went here on a whim for lunch as I was missing Cuban Cuisine ever since I left a project in Miami. I ordered the Bistec de Palomilla and the portion was good for the lunch price. The Sweet Plantains were just as good as I remembered, along with the rice and beans. Complimentary bread is offered as well, somewhat of a garlic bread taste, however, it was delicious.

The steak itself seemed to be slightly overcooked and dry. Although it did not come with sauce, the waitress brought me a cup of their Green Sauce and it was exceptional.

The service was good, although somewhat slow for only 4 tables eating. I had to wait almost 10 minutes for a server to bring menus and get drink orders.

I ordered a Cafe con Leche after my meal and was surprised at the price of almost $5. It also had a slight taste to it that seemed somewhat off, compared to others I've had.

Overall, this is a great choice to have a decent meal if you're tired of the usual Wake Forest restaurants.
