Reviews
– Ceviche de camaron y mango (6/10): The mango salsa is quite sweet, wish more acidic.
– Lomo Saltado (7/10): good
– Sangria Roja (6/10): too sweet for my taste, not fruity
– Mofongo Roasted Pork (6/10): luke warm, rather bland
– Lechon Asado (8/10): quite tasty and flavorful
Greeted with a warm smile
Ordered the yucca cheese balls, which were chewy and cheesy with the green sauce, so good.
Ordered the chicken plate, which was tender rice & beans cooked perfectly
With thier house sauce
The rice pudding for dessert had the right amount of cinnamon and wasn’t overly sweet
We started with empanadas de carne as appetizers, and they were really good, especially paired with the sauces.
For our meals, my son ordered the ropa vieja mofongo, and he couldn’t stop talking about how delicious it was. My other son had the lomo saltado with congri, which was really cool to see a Peruvian dish with a Cuban twist. As a Peruvian who also loves Cuban food, I truly appreciated that fusion. I ordered the ropa vieja, and it was absolutely top-notch. My husband tried the chaufa Cubano, which was the only dish we all agreed needed improvement it lacked flavor and was a bit bland.
To celebrate, my son also received a tres leches cake for his birthday along with a shot of tequila, which made the moment even more special.
The service was excellent very attentive, friendly, and courteous throughout our visit. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a cozy atmosphere and lovely décor. I especially loved the large wall mural of a Cuban street it really adds character and charm.
Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend
Food.
The food presentation is photo-worthy. The empanadas were delicious and one of my favorite items at Isla. They have light, crispy shells, and flavorful fillings. The two sauces added a nice touch. The Lomo Saltado is also a tasty and classic option. My family enjoyed the Polla Asado, Mofongo, and plantain appetizer.
However, the El Cubano sandwich wasn’t great. The last time I ordered, the pork was dry, and the fries were soggy and bland overall. I didn’t want to finish my meal. Maybe it was just an off day, but that was my last meal at Isla. I’ll consider trying other items on my next visit.
Isla also has a full bar with a good menu of house cocktails, spirits, wines, and beers (imported and domestic).
Overall, a 3.75/5-star rating for now.
