Suárez Bakery & Barra

When I first discovered OH, I got so excited to see a Cuban restaurant and ordered my main meal from here. It was so good, I came back the next day *awkward smile*

The Good: although I’m Latina, I’m not sure I’ve had authentic Cuban food so I can’t speak to that. I can say that what I got was absolutely delicious and my mother, also Latina, loved it as well. We got the Ropa Vieja with an extra side of Maduros and Tres Leches for desert. Everything was FANTASTIC!! The tres leches cake was so good, not too sweet, and very (insert gross M word adjective). The rice and beans had nice flavor and went well with the Ropa Vieja. Highly recommend getting sides of the Mojo sauce if you’re a fan of garlic (I can literally drink the stuff). My mom and I split everything and were stuffed so I feel the portions were great.

The Meh: nada

The Bad: nada again. This place is amazing. Again, can’t speak to the authenticity like some reviews mention, but it is DAMN good food.

Got a chocolate dipped croissant and a double chocolate gluten free cookie. Going to be honest, the croissant was only okay. A bit dense for my liking. That being said the chocolate cookie was unbelievable.

Good food at Suarez inside Optimimist Hall. I ordered the portobello sandwich and the plantains. They also have vegan doughnuts which is a plus. The entire experience was phenomenal and I believe the food is a solid 4 stars.

Delicious! Got the Chicken Cubano Sandwich. Very filling so definitely shareable. Tried the Vanilla and Chocolate Truffles...Vanilla was like cookie dough and chocolate was like a fudge brownie; a little heavy but not too sweet.
