Amazing Cuban restaurant! All the ladies here are so welcoming, friendly, and the ambiance is very homely. They speak mostly Spanish but they understood everything we said (as non-Spanish speakers) and all of our food was spot on. We also got a little sample of their Cuban coffee and it was super yummy -- sweet and strong.
The food portions are huge, most dishes come with one or two sides and the drinks we ordered (frozen lime & papaya shake) are delicious. The place is pretty cheap as well, I'd say that 2 dishes (anywhere from $16-25 each depending on what you order) could probably feed a table of 4 comfortably, and 4 dishes (including all the sides) you would be stuffed and have plenty to take home after. They have a great selection of options ranging from sandwiches to seafood and some more regional stuff like braised ox tail, goat in wine sauce, cassava, and fried plantain chips. They also offer desserts, we ordered the flan which was sweet and very tasty.
They do charge for takeout containers but it was only 0.35¢ each and they are generously sized. A 15% tip is automatically added, but honestly it's definitely worth tipping more for the service we got.
All in all, if you are a tourist or even just looking for a place to eat nearby, definitely consider giving Caribe a try. Satisfying and filling food at a...

I always get the same thing but that day I felt like being spontaneous (fires back) I order vaca frita and arroz con pollo ,it usually takes 15 mins for my food to be ready to pick up but this time it took more than 45 mins . I finally got my food The arroz con pollo smelled okay I was going to take it next day to work . The next day when I went to open it the food smelled so bad I almost threw up the chicken was slimy and the Rice was super sticky . After that I called the restaurant no one answered I emailed them and no one answered back . I’m so happy i didn’t eat rat food , for all I know I could of gotten...
