As much as I love the original Kuba Kuba in the Fan, I prefer the larger dining room and plenty of parking at the Kuba Kuba Dos. Same great menu and friendly service. If this is your first visit, you should definitely try the Cuban Sandwich. It is the best in Richmond. I also really enjoyed the Empanadillas (with beef), it was delicious. I was disappointed with Braised Pork Shank. It was overpriced. The meat was very tender, but lacked flavor. My husband ordered the Roast Pork Omelet, it was filled with pork and the egg looked fluffy. He said the omelet would be perfect if they put some seasoning in the egg. If you are a coffee lover, I recommend a shot of Cortadito (espresso with a splash of steamed milk).
Kuba Kuba has been an iconic restaurant in Richmond, you will have a wonderful time and delicious meal at either location.
Haven't been in RVA in about 5 years and heard there was a second Kuba Kuba open now. Figured I'd give it a try since I always loved the first restaurant in the fan. Just as good as the original flavor wise! A little slow to get the food out and there weren't many customers in the restaurant at the time, but wasn't in a hurry so not a big deal... Cool ambiance, our waitress was nice, the cafe con leche was good and the coconut risotto cakes + the pesto tomato jack melt were great! If I wasn't so full I would have tried the tres leches cake since it is so good, but took a pass this time. Not sure I'll go back since I'm closer to the original in the fan, but definitely recommend it to people in the West End if they're in the mood for some delicious Cuban food!
The food was really fresh and delicious! We especially loved the emapanadillas. I can’t wait to try the other dishes the next time I visit. The service was also nice and the outdoor seating was great too!
I ordered the Braised Pork Shank and my friend ordered the Kuban Roast Pork both were great but our favorite was the Braised Pork Shank! If you decide to try this restaurant I would definitely recommend the braised pork shank…. Amazing flavors, it took me back to Puerto Rico as I was savoring the food. The rice was great! I am from Florida and the food taste just like the food in the Cuban restaurants in Florida. Good drinks, I love the ambiance, they were playing good music…you always want to hear the tropical sounds in this type of restaurants. good service so I’ll definitely come back for more
