Details:
Let me start by saying that I love Cuban food! I'm Cuban and living in Miami for the past 50 years (since my teens), I have eaten in just about every Cuban restaurant in South Florida. It is hard for me find a dish, Cuban or otherwise, that I find truly amazing.
My wife and I went to Las Vegas Cuban Cuisine in Doral on May 1, 2023; We have eaten at others Las Vegas Cuban restaurants locations in past several years.
On the suggestion of our waiter (Warren) I ordered the Rabo Encendido (Cuban Oxtail). It was the most amazing dish that I have eaten in a very long time! This is hearty Cuban classic dish that is packed with flavor. The fork-tender delicious meat just felt off the bone. It was served with white rice, black beans and of course, sweet plantains. Wow, Wow , Wow! I loved it!!!!!
Wait there is more! For dessert, I had plans to order my beloved, can't go wrong, typical Cuban dessert; Flan (Custard). But the manager, who had been walking around asking patrons how was the food, recommended Buñuelos With Anise Syrup. I remember my mother making these at home in Cuba when I was a kid. Bingo, another winner! The Buñuelos were nice and warm, the anise syrup was just perfect! While eating something as delicious as these Buñuelos (or any good dessert for that matter) I close my eyes to heighten the taste so that I can truly savor every bite!
The staff were attentive and friendly and the restaurant was clean and orderly. The food was served fairly quickly and was nice and warm. I highly recommend the restaurant, especially the dish mentioned above.
