“Been a few times and the food is wonderful as well as, the staff. Casual place we typically visit after a long hike and when in need of a large, flavorful and satisfying hot meal. The fajitas and plantains are to die for!!! Highly recommend!!“
“Came across this spot …. So glad we did. The food has the flavor, the dishes provided are big so get ready to share, and the coffee …. Brings me back to Cuba…. Worth the time and drive getting here from the OC. Definitely coming back with the friends….“
“Despite being a Cuban food restaurant, the place immediately transports you to any other Latin city, (Caracas, Santo Domingo, San José....) it is a place with typical Cuban food, the decoration is not exquisite at all, a Informal atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable, super excellent service, super good food, it has parking. I tried meat sandwich and fried Maduro, also a delicious soursop smoothie, excellent. Others ordered Ropa Vieja Sandwich, Chicken Sandwich, empanadas and suckling pig. All very pleased with our choices. The photo I published shows my bite of the Sandwich as proof of tasting. Recommended.“
“One of my favorite local go-tos! The lomo here is delicious along with the papa rellenas and empanadas. The sangria is a MUST. Seating is outdoors which is perfect with the weather getting warmer. I'm excited to dine in on a Friday when they have a live band playing.“
“I enjoy the steak sandwich. It's like a Latin Hoagie. Flavorful and the bread is lightly toasted so you get a slight crunch in every bite. If you're into hot subs, Philly cheesesteak type of sandwich. This sandwich doesn't disappoint.“
“"The food at El Criollo Cuban Bar and Grill is beyond incredible! Behind the scenes, Mom infuses every dish with love, resulting in the most mouthwatering Cuban cuisine you'll ever taste. Words can't describe how delicious it truly is!" And don't miss out on the perfectly mixed and incredibly tasty mojitos! WOW!! Delicious.Hurry over to this hidden gem in the small strip mall in Burbank (across from Costco) it's an experience you won't want to miss!“
“The food was amazing- cooked right, flavorful, and filling. I’ll be back just based on the meal, but the real reason I’m leaving this review is the service I received. Felt like I had stepped into the living room of a family reunion. Happily greeted with smiles, given a bonus slice of mango halfway through my meal by who I assume must be one of the owners, and the outdoor patio area is cool too. This is the type of business I love to support.“
“Love this place! The food is delicious! So many options! The service was outstanding. The people that work here are so kind and welcoming. The ambiance is one of my favorite. One of my favorite spots! The chicken, ribs, and oxtail are my favorite!“

“Before moving to SFV, my bf and I would go out to find something to eat, during one of those days we passed in front of this place, we had to make a U turn, the smell of charbroiled chicken was inviting us to go try it, the chicken was delicious, I bought an extra chicken so my family could try it and they too loved it. I have tried the ribs, but for some reason every time the meat was super hard, and didn't even have barbecue sauce, I gave up and no longer order ribs, only the chicken, it has yet to disappoint me. The staff is friendly and they are quick.“
