"While I understand that there are fewer servers than before, the service this time was not as good as it was last month and certainly not like what it used to be before the pandemic. The person who served our water was excellent, and some of the other staff members were quite helpful, but overall it felt lacking. One major issue arose when I called ahead to inquire about the pricing. The person I spoke with assured me that the prices were the same. However, when I received the bill, I was shocked to find that the senior price had increased by $8, and the adult prices had gone up by $7 each. I get that many restaurants are raising prices due to economic challenges, but it was frustrating to be told that the prices were unchanged when they clearly were not. This resulted in an unexpected extra charge of $29, which I hadn’t anticipated. When I finally managed to ask the waiter about the discrepancy, he explained that the prices were different because more food had been added. The only addition I noticed was the hot chocolate, which, I must admit, was quite delicious. I believe the staff member answering the phone should provide clear and accurate information regarding pricing, and I felt misled by the waiter as well. At this point, I’m not sure I will return. Also, I’m curious about the change to "Mexican Grill." The manager, who has been there for years, is always pleasant and accommodating, but I can't shake off the feeling of disappointment from this experience. Joanne Terry"

"I don't usually venture out to Long Beach, but I'm definitely going to more often. I visited Corazon de Cuba on a Thursday night, it wasn't too busy but it wasn't empty. (We parked in the tiny lot across the street. The bartender seemed to be the only person there, from what I could tell, he was servicing the whole restaurant. He was exceptional. He greeted and sat us immediately and took our orders in a timely fashion. As someone who formerly worked as a bartender, server and a host- I really appreciate expedient and efficient service. He was really friendly and attentive to all of the guests. The drinks were extremely refreshing and well made. (We ordered a guava mojito and a guava margarita, so I was nervous about them being too sweet. As far as the food- it was as good as it looks. The balsita de yuca might have been the best guacamole I've ever had in a restaurant. (Usually I prefer to just make it myself. The plantain chips were light and crispy. The yucca frita bowl was heavier- but equally as delicious. I think it's delightful that the guacamole was served in something not only edible, but delicious. You really get to enjoy and appreciate every bit of the guacamole. The caserola de queso was exactly as you'd expect, melted cheeses served with a really yummy baked bread that had a very satisfying crunch. We were full after appetizers, but there was no way we were about pass on a perfectly executed Cuban, paired with sweet potato fries. I ordered the lechon asada, which is described as a succulent slow roasted pork. Honestly, there's no better way to describe it. The pork was cooked to perfection, paired with delicious rice and beans. The portions were appropriate, we left full and happy. I am definitely looking forward to coming back and trying so much more. Awesome job, Corazon de Cuba!"
