    Description
    We truly wanted to love this petite East Village eatery. The Cuban soundtrack and bright-green walls oozed charm, but the eats...not so much. “Manchego” salad arrived instead with smoked Gouda curled amid romaine, canned corn and cotija cheese. Garlicky chimichurri sauce was drizzled on the one great grub option: a slightly chewy, but still tasty, $10 steak. “No flan ever again” came the curt reply from the server when we ordered it for dessert, so we went for bread pudding with caramel and bananas—which arrived (surprise!) with neither.
