I treated my wife Jillian Ruiz- Duke to a special dinner at this cute cafe in the Pearl District of Tulsa and enjoyed a couple of their Cubano sandwiches. Josh was our server and was very attentive and helpful in making our selection. Thanks for the great service, interesting conversation and wonderful food. We can't wait to return to try some of the other authentic Cuban dishes. We look forward to seeing you there. ?

We love Mangos! My husband and I went there for our first date and also had them cater a dinner for our-of-town friends and family leading up to our wedding. They did a phenomenal job and all of our guests gave them rave reviews! They were great to work with too.

The owner/manager completely ignored us the entire visit until the very end, yet had no problem engaging in loud conversation with the Spanish speaking table behind us. A small, intimate restaurant like this should feel warmer and more welcoming...to everyone. The ropa vieja was good but lacked sufficient flavor. This was our third or fourth visit. Not sure we'll be back.

I’ve come here maybe twice in the past few months, and the waitress remembered my order perfectly. A really nice environment, and the food and coffee is delicious.

If you haven’t tried this place you’re missing out. Tony and his family are awesome and that special rice moros recipe from his grandmother is to die for. I usually get the Lechon asado with moros and a side of maduros and tostones. And if you want to finish off with some coffee, try a cortadito. His wife makes it superbly.

Disclaimer-- my boyfriend's mom is full Cuban and he's lived in Florida for enough years to have pretty high standards for Cuban food. Our waiter was very nice and the service was fast. We came on a Tuesday night and were the only dine-in customers. The temperature inside the restaurant was a little too warm and stuffy for our comfort but that was not a huge issue. The restroom was clean and I appreciated that. The tostones we got to share was very fresh, but my boyfriend said that they weren't as crispy as they should be. I thought they were pretty satisfying though. We both liked the cilantro sauce it came with, but he wished that it came with mojo sauce. My boyfriend ordered the ropa vieja-- his favorite dish in the whole world, and his mom usually makes it for the family. Unfortunately, it really fell short of his expectations. It was too liquidy, the portion was small, and it just wasn't super authentic. He was pretty bummed about it. I ordered the arroz con pollo, and I thought it was pretty delicious. Both of our entrees came with more tostones as well as black beans and rice, which was nice. The rice was just a tad bit too watery and it was hard to use the rice to "soak up" the black beans' liquid but it was not a big issue. Overall, I'd come back again to try more dishes, but we would not order the ropa vieja again.

Everything was authentic and absolutely delicious. Born and raised in south Florida with Cuban family, I will definitely be back.

Stopped in for lunch with a friend and really loved this place! I had the Havana Sunset cocktail (if you like sweet fruity drinks, try it!) and she had the mojito as per the owner’s recommendation- and I have to say, the mojito was amazing!! Tostones we’re great, so crunchy and not greasy, my friend doesn’t even like plantains and she liked them. I want that cilantro cream cheese sauce to be on everything I eat for the rest of my life. Had the Cubano Sandwich for my main, and it was great! Highly recommend. The owners are so sweet and passionate about their food!

I had a great chicken sandwich with fries. Service was fast and friendly and the food was great. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other items on the menu.
Excellent food! I had the Ropa Vieja and it was fabulous. I recommend dumping the beans and beef on your plate out of their individual dishes, the flavors shine when combined! Also, one of the best mojitos I've ever had.

Great service, the owner was nice and came over at least 8 times to make sure everything was fine. The food was great too! I highly recommend getting the Cuban as I thought it was really good.

Croquettes were amazing. Home made. Ask for the cilantro dipping sauce. Probably the best Cuban sandwich I've ever tried. The pork was nice and juicy, the bread was spot on. The black beans were flavorful and very good. Hemingway cocktail was nice and sweet. Piccadilly was good but not my favorite.

Fast service with home-styled dishes! I recommend trying something that you wouldn't usually. 4/5 because the fries were a bit lacking.

I lived in Tampa for many years and became really accustomed to my Cuban sand which. It's been a struggle to find anything close till now. The yuca fries to boot were amazing. It's a little pricey but we'll worth it! Give it a try!
