I think this might be the best restaurant in Mattoon. Food is fresh and beautiful. Spiced perfectly. Lots of choices. If you like creole food or are looking to try it, you should definitely go here.They are cash only but it’s worth it.
Amazing little restaurant. Had one of the best sandwiches I've ever had there. It is Cash Only but its definitely worth it to go!
Hidden gem. Would have never expected a unique restaurant like this in Mattoon, IL. I had the Bahamian Gumbo and Cuban Roast Chicken w/ Munster & Guava Preserves. Both were incredible.
Just ate here for the first time and this is some really good food! I had the Cuban Steak Tips that was served with rice with black beans and a really nice bright slaw. The steak tips were very tender and a great Cuban flavor, like I've found at Cuban places in the Florida Keys. This is legit! Not a cheap place to eat but the food is good!
Love the food here and the people. Lunch was amazing and I got some fresh dried bay leaves from their tree!
Unique little lunch spot. Only open 11-2 M-F. Advertised as Floribbean cuisine but the jumbo was all Creole. Crab cakes have a lighter flavor than east coast style. Both dishes were top notch. Not what you'd expect in Mattoon. A bit pricey but the tropical vibe created by the lemon, avocado and pomegranate trees makes up for it.
The food here is always packed full of so much flavor! Can't go wrong.
We ate here last week, the food was amazing! I had the Nuevo Cubano and my wife had a Riviera Salad with seared tuna. Both were delicious and well prepared. Highly recommend making time to get here during their lunch hours!
