Charlotte Food Find | El Puro Cuban Restaurant – A True Gem!

Just discovered an unforgettable Cuban dining spot right here in Charlotte — El Puro Cuban Restaurant! Every dish we tried was bursting with authentic flavor and soul. Here’s the delicious breakdown: 🦐 Tiradito De Camarones ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These shrimp were absolutely incredible! So fresh, snappy, and marinated to perfection — a real palate awakener! Served with salmon roe and crisp cucumber 🥒, it was an explosion of flavor and texture. A must-order! 🍖 Rabo Encendido ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Braised oxtail in rich red wine sauce — I’m usually not an oxtail person, but this dish totally won me over! Fall-off-the-bone tender and deeply savory. A Cuban classic you can’t miss! 🥪 Cuban Sandwich ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This sandwich took me right back to Miami! Packed with flavor and pressed to crispy perfection — just like the famous ones from Sanguich de Miami. Absolutely legendary! 🍠 Yuca Frita ⭐️⭐️⭐️ The only letdown of the meal — the fried yuca was too dense and starchy for my taste. Not nearly as satisfying as classic french fries, but still edible. 💬 Final Thoughts: El Puro is a vibrant and authentic taste of Cuba in Charlotte — highly recommended for a flavorful escape! Great for dates, group dinners, or when you're craving something bold and comforting. 📍 Address: 5033 South Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28217 #ElPuroCuban #CharlotteEats #CubanFood #CLTfoodie #OxtailLove #CubanSandwich #AuthenticFlavors #FoodieFind #NorthCarolinaEats #EatLikeYoureInHavana #MustTry #CaribbeanCuisine #ComfortFood
