El Oriental De Cuba - Jamaica Plain

Bread for the Cuban sandwich is terrible. Not a real baguette, but a soft bread that disturbs the good ingredients inside. It'll be soggy. I wanted to eat stuffed Yuca with meat. fried Yuca was given with onions. The flesh is not bad. Finally, a very mediocre restaurant. Could be very good with a little effort.

We had all delicious meals in this sweet little place. Would come back. We had a great experience here

This place was a review pick. It was a great choice. The facility was there for a while. Images from local officials and Boston sports heroes are on the wall. The food is why the restaurant has been there for a while. It is worth a visit when in Waltham, MA area.

I love this restaurant! This was my second time visiting, the last being 2015, and it is still just as delicious as I remember. The Cuban sandwich is spectacular but it’s also worth exploring all the other dishes on the menu. This time we ordered empanadas and chicken soup, too. All great options 10/10 would recommend. It is a wonderful place for lunch where you know you’ll leave full and not have paid an exorbitant amount of money.

This place has been consistently in my restaurant rotation for the past decade. Food is consistently good with generous portions. I highly recommend the oxtail (the red beans that come with their dishes is also fantastic). A perfect place to get great food with or without kids.Food: 5/5
