I was born in Cuba and raised in Miami. For years everyone kept telling me you have to try Pambiche it's the best cuban food. Finally went during the holidays because I wanted to take my kids who were back from college to a ""great"" cuban meal. What an awful experience. Long wait, terrible service....which we would have forgiven, but then we got the food. It was absolutely horrible. If you want to try good Cuban food, don't go there. Call it whatever you want, but it ain't good Cuban food. The arroz con pollo was the strangest thing we've ever seen, no resemblance to the real deal. The black beans had none of the usual spices, bland and boring. The lechon asado, vaca frita and ropa vieja; what can I say but they were barely edible. The only good thing was the can of Jupina and Materva; they couldn't screw that up! Trust me, save your money and fly to Miami for a decent Cuban meal. It's worth the wait.
