    El Puro Cubano Restaurant is a great place for any occasion diner, date night or just for drinks. The staff is amazing and the food left is speechless. The cherry on top would have been the live music however they didn’t start til 8 pm, the website says from 6-10:00pm, bummer, maybe I miss read…Anyhow, we will be back and give it another try…

    Terrible experience and won’t be back. We were seated by the hostess who had a terrible attitude. After waiting 15 minutes, with no one coming to our table, we left. Totally ignored. I told the hostess on the way out that we are leaving - no one came to our table and she said ok and smiled. There are so many restaurants in town, no reason for this. Went to eat at the bar at Peppervine and had an amazing meal. I want to say the manager of El Puro did call to apologize and try to make amends, which was professional, but we will not be back.

    We didn’t expect the live Cuban band Friday night but they were great. Unfortunately they put us at a table by the stage and in front of the speaker and the volume made it very diff to talk with our friends. The food and cocktails were excellent. We will definitely go back but will request a table further away next time.

    Food was spectacular, the only issue was service. I think the waitress had too many tables she barely checked on us. I’ll definitely come back for the food.
