I was really wanting a place to get bistec empanizado and decided to try this place since it said it was on the menu. The food was delicious and the service was so friendly. We also got the yucca frita, which was so tasty. The parking lot and restaurant are very small, but worth a stop!

A hidden gem next to Downtown orlando. Costumer service is phenomenal. Everyone helps you feel at home. The vibes and energy are always on point, with lots of smiles and great hospitality. The food quality is amazing, and the flavors, spices, smells, and plate presentations are wonderful. You just can have enough. Great place to go in alone or with company. Highly recommend it.

Great place... can’t believe we never tried it until today! Food was fresh and flavorful. The service was thorough and proactively advised us on the items that would meet our dietary restrictions (vegetarian).

After moving away 20 years ago, we returned to Orlando for a visit. Numerous Uno was at the top of our list to visit. It was as great as we remembered!!! The best authentic Cuban food!!! Service was terrific. We were traveling with an almost 1 year old and the entire staff was so kind. I would always highly recommend this restaurant. We were so happy to visit again.

Good food and atmosphere! The server was very friendly and helpful while answering questions regarding dishes, etc. Will recommend the Ropa vieja over the other plates just because I am bias and love ropa vieja.

My husband and I were visiting Orlando for business. We decided to stop here because it was near our hotel and we passed it a few times during our trip. The food was incredible! The staff was very friendly although our waitress didn't speak much English and it was difficult for her to understand us at times, she was very nice. We're definitely planning to go back when we return to Orlando in a few weeks.
