This is a small family run restaurant with a taste of old Cuban food. The Cuban lechon sandwich was tasty, but relative small. Ordered the rice and bean plates with meat. Noticed that there were no vegetables with the order. They only have a dish with broccoli. The yuca fries were very well prepared.

So delicious and affordable! We got two fiesta bowls, one with the pollito mojito and another with the vaca frito. Just the rice and beans were delicious and fragrant, so with the toppings, meat, and sauces, it was amazing. Very nutritious and almost everything is gluten free. Highly recommend!

There aren’t too many Cuban places in the Bay Area and I gotta say Cuban Kitchen is worth the trip to San Mateo alone. This is authentic, home cooked delicious Cuban food. It feels like you’re eating inside of their home.
I don’t I why some reviews said the portion size was small, that’s simply not true. I went by that and added a side of meat thinking I’d need it. I got the Mojito Chicken platter with the yellow rice and sub tostones for the maduros, and side half order lechon with beans.
The chicken was good, but this was easily the best lechon I’ve ever had. It wasn’t greasy, or dry, it was super tender chunks of perfectly cooked pork. The crunch of the tostones and the black beans makes for one of the best bites of food.
Also the sauces here absolutely spectacular, and they got a cafe Cubano here that can easily compete with the ones in Miami.
The lady working was also super nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend coming here

Amazing service, hostess came out with samplers to let us try everything and sauces as well. Gave us a real taste of Cuban cuisine! Super kind, super delicious, highly recommend. Love their sauces

I loved the food here. Had a really great Cuban coffee, took me back to how I felt in Havana sipping away. The Tostonas were amazing. I could drop in there just to get a dozen of those. Wait until you try their special sauces, clearly my favorite was the jalapeño mayo. I do look forward to going back very soon. Looking forward to meeting the owner

Flavorful Cuban favorites in an inviting setting.
The menu is focused on a handful of protein dishes, served in different options (sandwich, bowl, burrito, plate), some readily made, some slow cooked (offering deep homemade flavours). Add a selection of sides, appetizers and desserts to make an appealing menu.
The service was friendly, and right on point, and the dining area simple but nicely done.
Bottomline: comfort food, reasonably priced, in a welcoming environment.
We will definitely be back.

Brunch was amazing and the drinks are very affordably priced! There’s lots of tasty salsas, including the ironically mild “cien fuegos”. Tables are a tad small for four people but we made it work. There’s a mix of indoor and outdoor seating, all brightly lit. Service is great.
Tip: do NOT mention “Cuban” if you use Zelle to split the bill. Your payment will be seized since it triggers filters for international sanctions. Then you will have to call your bank and explain everything.

My family and I absolutely adore this place. The service is great and the food is excellent. The Ropa Vieja platter is our personal favorite as it’s jam-packed with flavor and all the sauces they provide when you dine-in complement the meal so well too! Highly recommend
