Reviews for Lidia's cuban kitchen in Cranford, NJ
We wanted a nice lunch last Saturday 3/2 and unfortunately we left very unsatisfied. I usually do not write reviews however on... this one I had to write our experience. Had lunch for a family of 7 ... the skirt stake was raw and had no taste, the rice wasnot done, the soup was cold, the pork pieces had no taste and the onions that the cook places on the food were frozen! Theplants are not fresh, they are also frozen! You would think that for the orice range and after spending $150 we would?vegotten a great meal but no, we left and had to leave the food on the table. Trust me I love Cuban food but this is not the placeto go. To expensive and no taste! Read more
Great food excellent staff. The atmosphere is good. Would recommend calling ahead for seating
Was concerned about the authenticity of Cuban cuisine but ended up completely pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere and music... down to the core Cuban. With our luck our waitress was of Cuban origin and that's when the party began. Thank you Tina as allyour recommendations were to the point. Ralph the owner makes it a point to meet and greet his guests to ensure guestsatisfaction. BYO makes this place more desirable as that's where your bill adds up. Prices are within reason considering itslocation. It's a must go, excellent place to bring your 1st date if you care to impress with the true meaning of Cubancuisine. Thumbs up Ralph, you've made it awesome Congratulations! Read more
I had visited this place a few years ago and was disappointed in the food. Enough to avoid coming back for a few years. I just... went back this past weekend and the food was amazing and the service was great. I'm extremely happy with the overall experienceand I'll definitely be going back very soon. Read more
I went to Lidias last night for dinner w my family. I was amazed! We had the sampler appetizers which my 2 small children LOVED.... They liked every single sample (they're usually very picky). The entrees were a very generous portion but the best was thepresentation of the desserts! We ordered churros w/ ice cream & tres leches. The service was EXCELLENT, our waitress was veryattentive and friendly. Read more
