Cuba Cuba Castle Rock

Great late Valentine's day dinner. Was expecting to be disappointed. This was a second time we tried Cuba Cuba (first time was at the now-closed Highlands Ranch location). We were pleasantly surprised this time. We started with the CROQUETAS DE JAMON and EMPANADA with mushrooms and Manchego Cheese. Then ENSALADA CUBANA and PAN CON POLLO and shoestring fries doused with garlic mojo ... ending with a FLAN and a huge BANANA BREAD WITH ICE CREAM. Everything was really fresh and tasted high-end ... the crisply pulled roast pork (Lechon?) was seriously the best I've eaten. If you have garlic sensitivity - be prepared though - eat a fresh apple after you get home (if you have room). I enjoyed the mint leaves in the Mojito, but it seemed to lack any distinctive "punch" until I squeezed out the limes at the bottom and poured some extra simple syrup into the mix myself. Incidentally, our servers were personable and knowledgeable in menu items.

Good food , good service . Cool little place !

Awesooooome! Had a great time with my husband and son. Awesome atmosphere and delicious drink and food menu!

Great service + food. Mojitos are better than many in Miami.

The only reason I am giving it a 2 is for the price difference for the same plate at the one in Denver. The Castle Rock one for the Pollo a la plancha is $21.00 the same exact plate at the Denver location is $14.50. We asked our server why that was, he asked his manager and told us that the portions were different but honestly they are the same. The server was extremely attentive and polite. I am from Miami, if you are looking for authentic Cuban food, sure you can come to the Castle Rock location, but I would drive the extra 30 mins and head to the Denver location for the same portions and cheaper price. We ended up paying $103. With the same order at the Denver location it came to $84.
