Best Cuban Restaurants in Garment District

The food was great - we were all very happy with our choices (Beef & Chicken Empanadas, Sweet Plantains, Garlic Shrimp & Mango Salmon) and it was a fun atmosphere - though it’s very loud with the live music, we were happy to be seated upstairs. It was a perfect pre-show dining spot.

Delightful meal, novel cuisine for us, and excellent waitstaff. We shared a shrimp appetizer and a chicken rice dish which together was plenty for us. Would go here again.

Arrived there after the theater around 4:30 p.m.. Restaurant was not full and as a result we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal. Noise level was relatively low and for once it was possible for us to have a conversation. Food and service were great. Pricing was very reasonable comparing to other restaurants in the area.

What a fantastic restaurant. Met the owner (Patrick) who has the warmest and friendly personality The food is simply excellent. Portion size great. Quality superb. Patrick takes time to visit and talk with his customers and shows a genuine interest in seeing to his guests needs and comfort. He will get a 5 star Yelp revue. Should any of you visit NYC. You must stop and dine here. The service is of high focus to customers and our table of six received the finest of service and customer service All this when every table and seat was at full capacity Do yourself a favor. Go and dine at Guantanamera. .
