OUR FOOD
Our recipes have been kept intact since the beginning of our foundation in the late 70s. Abuela Candida Rosa created the most incredible 'recetario' with all the secrets of Padrino's kitchen. We follow her lead by honoring her culinary assets in every one of our dishes.

agosto 19, 2019 at 11:59 pmI absolutely love this place. I’ve been coming here for years with my family and friends and it’s been consistently good in all aspects. Hidden at a corner unit deep in The Fountains, this place has the best ambiance. Clean, comfortable, big and spaced out – perfect for Covid times. The service has always been perfect also.
I went recently with a friend for dine in dinner. It was my first dinner out at a dine-in place since Covid so I was very nervous. But my nervousness quickly melted once we walked in. There were a few tables already but everyone was spaced out. And we were seated at a corner table not even close to any other table. The staff were all geared up in protective wear. They didn’t hover and kept their distance. We really appreciated that.
As for the food, I love it. I’ve been to some Cuban places where the pork chunks were over cooked and hard. The steaks were dry and the ropa vieja was bland. BUT… this place consistently pumps out great food. I think we’ve tried almost everything on the menu. This time around, I had the churrasco (steak) and my friend had the seafood paella. Omg. It was the best coming out dine-in dinner ever! Definitely hit the spot.
I would highly recommend this place any time. But during covid times, if you’re looking for a safe, relaxing place with great food to eat at, I’d highly recommend.
