Romeito Cuban Restaurant Review – A Caribbean Gem in Olathe Nestled in West Olathe, Romeito Cuban Restaurant is a vibrant, not-so-hidden gem that transports you straight to the heart of the Caribbean. From the moment you step inside, the lively atmosphere wraps you in the warmth and spirit of Cuba, making it the perfect spot for a flavorful escape. The food here is nothing short of spectacular. Portions are absurdly large—come very hungry or plan to share! Most dishes easily serve two, making Romeito an incredible value for the price. Every bite bursts with authentic Cuban flavors, crafted with care and tradition. A standout is the Trio de Carnes, a hearty platter featuring perfectly grilled beef, pork, and chicken steaks, drizzled with what I suspect is a tantalizing criollo mojo sauce. It’s a must-try for meat lovers and an absolute crowd-pleaser. While I haven’t yet explored their extensive cocktail menu, it’s high on my list for next time, promising to elevate the experience even further. Romeito Cuban Restaurant is a delightful blend of bold flavors, generous portions, and Caribbean charm—a true Olathe treasure worth visiting again and again. Recommendation: Don’t miss the Trio de Carnes, and bring a friend to...
Read moreFound this just looking for highly rated local restaurants & was surprised to find an Authentic Cuban restaurant in Lenexa Kansas! Walking in late on a Friday, it wasn’t busy, however you can tell it’s a family run business , with each family member speaking to us at some point. We had a wonderful, polite & young new waitress that was friendly, smiling & very attentive & helpful. The mojitos were amazing as other reviews stated, as we’ve had them in Havana, Cuba, Miami & Colombia & are fairly picky - absolutely incredible & authentic with even a sugar cane slice included.
I was initially a bit surprised with the prices of the appetizers & meals, however once we received them I couldn’t believe the portion sizes ! Flavor was delicious & we couldn’t even finish the stuffed tostones , along with my Cubano sandwich & tostones I had ordered also ! Well worth it & much bigger than you’d imagine, so I recommend the A La Carte for smaller sample sizes.
Wonderful service, great service, amazing drinks & large quantities at a fair price. A true hidden gem in West KC for those missing the Cuban island flavors, plantains & great cocktails! Highly...
Read moreI stopped by here to pick up dinner after just learning of this restaurant a few days ago, it won't be the last time I come here! I have family in Florida and always love the Cuban food that can be found there, but have lamented seeing so many Cuban places open in the metro, only to close soon after. Well, I hope Romeito is here to stay! Masitas de peurco has long been my favorite Cuban dish, so I got the masas de puerco here with black beans and rice and mashed plantains - I'm a big dude and I couldn't finish everything, there was so much food. Not only was it a huge quantity, but it was delicious - the meat was perfectly tender, the onions were slightly tangy, and the rice and beans were perfectly seasoned. The prices are very reasonable - meals for two people and churros for desert came out to just over $40 after tax and tip, plus we have leftovers to enjoy later. This place is great, I plan to...
