Restaurants With New Orleans’s Best Cuban Sandwiches - Eater New Orleans

"Que Rico! owners Iderlin Donna Rivera and her husband, Richard, recently relocated Uptown after nine years in Slidell, to a small space on the corner of Magazine and Milan Streets. And though it’s been less than five months, the place is hopping and a much-welcome addition to town, serving some of the best Cuban food in the city in a warm, family-friendly environment." - Clair Lorell

Pretty good Cuban food. Simple and quaint yet delectable. Gave off a star because there was no information online about them not having alcohol, I saw that they had mojitos and was only informed of them being virgin mojitos upon arrival. Not the best Cuban sandwich I’ve had but a damn good one with plenty of authenticity accompanying most of their menu. Would recommend as a good new lunch spot to try, just don’t be in a hurry, they are a small place with a small kitchen.

I don’t normally come to Magazine St but I was working close and my daughter knows the owner so why not? I always like Cuban sandwiches at non-Cuban restaurants but none really compare. This was really good. The slow cooked pork was very juicy and the egg bread was a nice touch. I hear they may open one in Slidell and that would make me happy.

OMG my first time in New Orleans I stayed in an Airbnb on Magazine & it was superb! This small quaint restaurant was absolutely lovely. My friends & I arrived late(a few minutes before closing) & they still served us as if it were early in the day. The food was so rich in taste, I had a mouth watering soup & some other items I can’t remember, but I distinctly remember thinking I wish I could have it every week. Not only was the food wonderful, the Manager was soooo nice, told us he lived right upstairs from the place & wasn’t in a rush to close. I really appreciate people who go the extra mile. & let me not forget about the decor, which reminded me of a movie set out of Cuba, well thought out & cute. They even had outdoor seating! I was extremely happy to have experience Que Rico Cuban Cafe, highly recommend!

A very small cuban restaurant. Barely enough to seat 15-20 people at the same time. However the food is pretty decent. Ordered a chicken sandwich & chicken plate. I can't say that it was the best Cuban food I ever had but definitely not bad either. Paid street parking available.

Delicious folks! and Homey. Growing up, my neighbors were both Honduran and Cuban and would always serve porch chops , sweet plantains, white rice and black beans for dinner and I swear this brought me back! I got the Chuletas Fritas and it was delicious. Porch chop was seasoned well, plantains fried just right and the white rice - perfectly done. This is a solid family go to for lunch or dinner.

Great food and great vibes. Servers were extremely helpful and fun to interact with. I ordered tostones and the bistec de pollo. The tostones taste similar to plantain chips and come with a garlic sauce. The chicken was fresh and seasoned to perfection. Definitely left very full and satisfied.

I ordered the Virgin mojito, delicious and refreshing, the Cubano, a little dry, and the appetizer of the tamale, best thing yet. We also had boiled yuca, very good

Excellent food! Very enjoyable time with my wife and our Cuban friends who recommended it. My wife and I ordered the special for the evening - it was two deep fried pork chops (hefty and flavorful). These were serious and we could only eat one each and took the other two home. The black beans and rice were delicious. Highly recommended and we will return (DV).
