A delicious restaurant in Bethesda! They have great happy hour deals that allow you to try a lot of their food. We ordered 5 snacks on the happy hour list, and then ordered 2 of those extra afterwards. The arepas and the empanadas are the best, in my opinion. On another visit, I got the Ropa Vieja, which was rich and flavorful. The service is great, and they definitely should be a lot busier than they are with how good the food is!

Unique cuisine for Bethesda area. Very welcoming. We split 3 appetizers (arepitas, croquetas and empanadas) and 1main (shrimp in garlic sauce). All were delicious. Our fresh lemonade was truly amazing. Very reasonably priced. We definitely plan on returning to try some other items on the menu. Highly recommend!!

We had such incredible food and service here! I made a reservation for my large family group with ease. They were so kind to all of us and especially my elderly grandmother. The food was absolutely amazing!! Everything was clearly made with so much thought, love, and flavor! We can’t wait to come back again! A huge thank you to the team at Cubano’s for an absolutely amazing meal and experience!
