    Really enjoyed our dinner at Borax. Very attentive service, food was delicious and the drinks generous. The only issue I would flag is that while the food was yummy, it could have been a little hotter.

    One of the best meals we had during our two week trip in Spain. The dishes reminded us of our favorite Cuban restaurant in Denver, Cuba Cuba. Great find!

    The restaurant is a little quiet place with warm and friendly staff who would make you feel at home. The food tastes and looks like home-made Cuban food. We were welcomed by Ariel and Laura, both really nice people. Ariel gave us a lot of tips regarding their week menus too. Good price for the portions as well... definitely recommended!

    This Cuban restaurant in Chueca is small but just right. The menu is limited, but everything we ordered was delicious. They did not have the cocktails listed on the menu (they were basic anyway) so we tried the Cuban beers instead - very good. The Tamal as a starter was terrific, large and tasty. For main plates, we had the huevos & vaca frita. Both were excellent. We were too full for dessert. The meal started with typical Spanish olives and bread - this was a distraction from the Cuban-ness of the rest of the meal. Will visit again!
