Cubano's - Silver Spring

First visit here as my wife and I stay in silver jump for a few days. alex g was our host and server, and he is excellent at his work. this dedication is more rare in restaurants. our order: aperitivo empanaditas plato mi tierra reis and bohnen, plantains, marinated hen, carne, slow boiled pigeon and swirl what is good: rice and buzz, plus the slowly boiled pig, both are remarkable. the planos were sweet and delicate, and the bark meat and the chicken on the mi tierra plate were also delicately delicious. in the did the mi tierra is an excellent evening meal to share as my wife and I did. the empanaditas were good, I wish they were again bigger, they would be just empanadas! in sum: this is a great local restaurant for home cooked eating well prepared. if they are in silver jump, they should stop.

Very average experience, this place use to be good I am unsure what transpired through the pandemic. The food was bland. Slow service, unenthusiastic waiters, our server was not interested in her job during our meal. Younger waiters on their phones in the small corner right next to the bar area talking about patrons in spanish and laughing. They ran out of soft drinks, my date didn’t taste any alcohol in his mojito. I ordered a paella and calamari appetizer. They sat all guest along the tables against the wall, I felt bad I even recommended this place to my guest.

It claims to be authentic Cuban food and as a Cuban American I can verify it is NOT authentic Cuban food at all but rather what someone from another country in Latin America considers Cuban and knows the name will sell only the sodas are Cuban nothing else if you want authentic Cuban food this is not it

Came here for early dinner after a long day, and needing to go somewhere that's somewhat quiet. Restaurant is tucked in a good quiet neighborhood. The interior of the restaurant has a very cozy and homey feel to it. We started with some mojitos and margaritas and the drinks were definitely strong! Then we had some seafood with sides of rice and plantains. Everything was delicious! The service here too was excellent. They walked us through the menu and helped us with what to get. Can't wait to come back and try other food on the menu

We’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile now, especially during the warmer months when you can sit outside on their front porch area. We were in a sandwich mood and decided to check out their original Cubano sandwich as well as the Cubano Especial. The prices seemed a bit steep, but it was nice supporting a local business. I really wanted to try their picadillo 20 , so maybe next time we’ll have to do that. We went at around 7:30pm on a Friday night and there were plenty of seats granted the temperature was 34°F and nobody wants to leave the warmth of their house . This place is usually packed during warmer months.
