Ordered carry out n it was great. Got the ropa vieja which was delicious, I should have ordered more plantains tho...will be returning to try different dishes.
Amazing food and service. The make you feel at home each time you go. The Rabo Encendido Is my favorite.
This place is super nice and clean. The decor is pretty cool and somewhat urban. Our waitress was immensely friendly which was great. The food was also great. I tried the sandwich Cubano that comes with a side of either fries/salad/chicken soup. I tries the chicken soup and yummy yummy! The sandwich was also good. Will def come back and try more food. Oh and it's happy hour all day long.
I enjoyed the steak with rice and beans.. the mojito was good as well. Good service
Me and my family are coming back so many times here at El Criollo Cuban Restaurant, for their awesome services. From food servings up to the food attendant and all staff are great, friendly and very nice. We found this place in internet, and we hurry up to visit and tried their food. We have no regrets of having our meal here, food can't describe how delicious all of them and perfectly cooked. Of course, we will definitely come back here and here again.
The best of the best Cuban food. Been going to El Criollo when they were located on Victory blvd and Fulton. Never really crowded when I have gone. Prices are great, service is fab, food is amazing. Small parking lot in the back, also street parking. This place has been around for a long time. A must go to place if never been. You wont regret it
We came to this place for lunch. we heard about this place from quite a few people. Well, {we were not disappointed|it was a winning|it was very nice. The staff were very polite and we had a fantastic feeling. The meal was tasty. We enjoyed every moment and we shall absolutely come back again. Keep it up!
I googled this place and was pleased with the rating. I went in yesterday around 3 o clock and there was no diners in there. I wasn't greeted or acknowledged. For a moment i thought the place was closed. Turns out there was 3 employees present...the "server" that threw the menus at us, the chef she was gossiping with in the kitchen while we tried to make eye contact with her to take our order and the little lady with a hair net that came out of the restroom. Also location was isolated with trash surrounding. Yucca tasted overcooked and processed, rice had a metallic pot taste. Plantains, black beans and mojitos were good. Will not be back.
