    A little small and crowded but so worth it! Authentic and delicious. Get the masitas de puerco with congris, ask for a cup of garlic sauce on the side and get the mango vinaigrette on your salad.

    I'm eating Papi's Cuban and Caribbean Grill for lunch! This restaurant is changing my life. I don't know why they put guava and cheese in an empanada, but it is amazing!

    Rey's Cuban, the Jerk Chicken Sandwich, the maduros, and especially the guayaba and cream cheese pastry. I usually have it on pressed bread, but it's still amazing in an empanada shell. Everything's馃敟

    Check the daily specials. Most are good. Ropa Vieja is a good one, & Papi's Cuban sandwich good too. Also like pork masitas. There is a location up near Kennesaw too (Chastain Rd. )

    The yucca fries are the best I've ever had. Light and crispy on the outside but smooth and creamy on the inside. And the garlic sauce is the bomb!!!

    If you go during peak hours, I recommend ordering upstairs and eating there. The service staff (veterans included) run around like chickens with their heads cut off!
