“ Normally my nature is to avoid places called “shack” because they tend to be an amalgam of mediocrity but every now and then I’m forced to reckon with this bias. This bias was shattered at Cuban Shack. The Cuban sandwich was incredible and I’ve had a few in my day, and the Cuban platter with sweet plantains, beans and rice was also very good. We grabbed a frozen mojito to wash it all down and I have to say I’m very glad made this stop. The food was great, the service was quick and the prices weren’t bad. ”
“ Got a quick meal before heading into work. The Cuban sandwich was so good and the yuca fries with aioli sauce was everything! I’ll definitely be coming again. ”
