    (Translated by Google) Multiple dishes did not come at all and some were just gone. We also received dishes from other tables. The cocktails were first forgotten and later after having indicated they still delivered after 15 minutes. Positive point. We got another table at the start because the previous one was very tight. (Original) Meerdere gerechtjes kwam helemaal niet en sommige waren gewoon op. Ook kregen we gerechtjes van andere tafels. De cocktails werden eerste keer vergeten en later na aangegeven te hebben alsnog na 15 min geleverd. Positieve punt. We kregen een andere tafel aan begin omdat de vorige heel krap was.

    (Translated by Google) After a very positive experience at La Cubanita Zwolle made a try at the Apeldoorn location. Being in one: What a deception! Service was also in South American relax mode, enormously drafty and cold, dishes totally did not meet the quality and refined as in Zwolle: everything coarse, overly spiced and portions too large. Sin, could have been in so much more. Until I started to see some more positive reviews, this was the last time for me in Apeldoorn. (Original) Na een zeer positieve ervaring bij La Cubanita Zwolle een poging gewaagd bij de vestiging in Apeldoorn. In een zijn: Wat een deceptie! Bediening stond ook in zuid Amerikaanse relax modus, enorm tochtig en koud, gerechten voldeden totaal niet aan de kwaliteit en verfijnde zoals in Zwolle: alles grof, overdreven gekruid en porties te groot. Zonde, had zo veel meer in kunnen zitten. Totdat ik wat meer positieve recenties ga zien was dit voor mij de laatste keer in Apeldoorn.

    (Translated by Google) Very small table, stacking was sometimes the only option and many mistakes were made, dishes that did not arrive or dishes that were not ordered by us were put down, in short messy (Original) Erg klein tafeltje, stapelen was soms de enige optie en er werden veel fouten gemaakt, gerechten die niet kwamen, of niet door ons bestelde gerechten werden neergezet, kortom rommelig

  • 3/5 Jeffry B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A small matter. But luckily the table stood a good distance apart. There was a nice atmosphere. (Original) Een kleine zaak. Maar gelukkig stonden de tafel op ruime afstand van elkaar. Er was een leuke sfeer.

  • 2/5 Allard M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) After years, once again dined at la Cubanita Apeldoorn. Nice enthusiastic girls in the service who, every time they took a saucer from your table, asked us if we wanted something to drink. We lost count at 25. The food was of a lesser quality than I was used to. Lots of sauces, little spice. Not at all .. Not anymore for the time being. (Original) Na jaren weer eens bij la Cubanita Apeldoorn getafeld. Leuke enthousiaste meiden in de bediening die telkens, als ze ook maar een schoteltje van je tafel pakten, aan ons vroegen of we nog wat te drinken wilden. We raakten de tel kwijt bij 25. Het eten was van een mindere kwaliteit dan ik gewend was. Veel sausjes, weinig pit. Allemaal net niet.. Voorlopig even niet meer.

    (Translated by Google) Great food for a good price. Especially the cocktails are a nice addition to the menu (also virgin). A nice evening for the family. (Original) Lekker eten voor een goede prijs. Vooral de cocktails zijn en fijne toevoeging op het menu (ook virgin). Een gezellige avond voor het gezin.

    (Translated by Google) The food was very tasty. Compliments for the cook! But, most of the service was disappointing. They were chatting a lot at the bar, on the phone or having a drink. While our glasses were empty several times and there were many empty containers. They have certainly seen this. We also missed a manager in the restaurant who directed the young girls. Overall the food was perfect but the care in the restaurant disappointing. (Original) Het eten was hartstikke lekker. Complimenten voor de kok! Maar, de meeste bediening was teleurstellend. Ze stonden veel bij de bar te kletsen, op telefoon of wat te drinken. Terwijl onze glazen meerdere keren leeg waren en er veel lege bakjes stonden. Deze hebben ze zeker zien staan. Ook miste wij een leidinggevende in het restaurant die de jonge meiden aanstuurde. Kortom het eten was perfect, maar de verzorging in het restaurant teleurstellend.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious. And the service was really great !! They definitely make it worth 5 stars. Thank you for a pleasant and delicious dinner! (Original) Super lekker. En de bediening was echt top!! Die maken het zeker 5 sterren waard. Bedankt voor een gezellig en heerlijk diner!

    (Translated by Google) Good dishes. Good food. Cramped and busy, but that is true at most locations. (Original) Goeie gerechten. Lekker gegeten. Wel krap en druk, maar dat is bij de meeste vestigingen wel zo.

  • 5/5 Sridhar S. 3 years ago on Google
    The people are really nice.We were late and the kitchen was about to close in an hour so they just offered us to order 4 items at once instead of 2 items. The hospitality is good and loved all the dishes we ordered. A wonderful place to dine out with friends and family.

  • 5/5 Sam F. 6 years ago on Google
    Great food and relitively fast service considering how busy it was! Would return.

  • 5/5 Pepijn E. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious, even during the pandemic. They currently reinstated their entire menu, which is a delicious ensemble of dishes. Can heartily recommend.

  • 4/5 Vi R. 5 years ago on Google
    We, a friend of mine and myself, went to La Cubanita on a Sunday evening to try out the restaurant for the first time. It was very busy and we were glad that we reserved a table upfront. I was delighted to have someone with me who could speak Dutch and could translate everything for me since the waiters/waitresses did not seem to be able to explain the restaurant's concept in English, although, they are offering English/ German menus. After our first round, we were quite surprised how fast the food arrived even though the restaurant was still very busy and we expected long waiting times. When we finished the first round, we decided to order the second one, however, it turned out that this was not such a good idea, since we were quite hungry and it did not arrive as quick as the first round. Therefore, TIPP: when you receive the first two items of your previous round, make sure you already order the next ones, so you do not have to wait that long. It works :-) The food itself was surprisingly good. After reading the reviews online, I was not too sure what to expect but it was actually nice! A lot of choices, from vegetarian dishes to fish and meat or just 'normal' snacks. I believe everybody would be successful to manage finding something he/she likes! When looking at the service, I cannot say that it was an amazing service, however, it was satisfying, The waiters/waitresses all seemed to be very young (more like students having a part-time job) and were a little bit clumsy and not too attentive. They kept dropping cutlery and dishes. When they cleaned the tables from those, they also kept forgetting to bring new cutlery for which we also did not only have to ask once. Overall, they were all friendly and fast in approaching the guests if you asked for something. The atmosphere was okay. It felt like they are trying to squeeze as many guests in the restaurant as possible since there is not much space neither to sit nor on the tables themselves (for two people). We were sitting next to the soda machine and could barely move and in order to place the food on the small table we actually had to empty it from the menus and our drinks in order to have enough space to eat. All in all, it was a good dinner. Do not expect any luxury in any aspect of the service or the restaurant itself. It is very much a casual concept but if you do not set any expectations, you will be pleased with what you get :-)

    Not the best tapas. Unlimited tapas but for me no dish stand out, its reasonable for the price I quess only I rather value good tapas.

    Best La cubanita franchise in Holland. I've been to about 7 of them and this one is the greatest when it comes to taste texture and service!!

    (Translated by Google) Every time we come there we have a very pleasant experience at the La Cubanita in Apeldoorn. The accessibility is very good, the staff working there are very friendly and the food they serve there is delicious, especially the chicken in honey, carpaccio, shrimp in garlic oil and the steak. Value for money is very good and I can't wait for the next time I am there. (Original) Iedere keer dat wij daar komen hebben wij een enorm prettige ervaring bij de La Cubanita in Apeldoorn. De bereikbaarheid is erg goed, het personeel dat er werkt is erg vriendelijk en het eten dat zij daar serveren is heerlijk, vooral de kip in honing, carpaccio, garnalen in knoflookolie en de biefstuk. Prijs-kwaliteit verhouding is erg goed en ik kan niet wachten tot de volgende keer dat ik daar ben.

  • 4/5 Wilma T. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice restaurant, friendly staff, may order 2 tapas pp per round, but after 10 min the next round can already be ordered ... tapas came quickly to the table, no waiting times. One flaw was the desert dame blanca was served with strawberry sauce instead of chocolate sauce, (chocolate sauce was finished?) Without informing or asking the customer if this was a problem. (Original) Leuk restaurant, vriendelijk personeel, mag 2 tapas pp per ronde bestellen, maar na 10 min kan de volgende ronde al besteld worden...tapas kwamen snel op tafel, geen wachttijden. 1 minpunt was het desert dame blanca werd geserveerd met aardbeiensaus ipv chocoladesaus, (chocoladesaus was op?) zonder dit mee te delen of aan de klant te vragen of dit een probleem was.

  • 1/5 Robert 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I once gave 5 stars here. The food and cocktails stay good here. But eaten here today, and you can wait at least half an hour per round. Apologies heard as; "that is the charm of tapas". And; "yes sorry, the kitchen is understaffed". Finally, as compensation, all drinks received at the expense of the restaurant. But I doubt if I will come back here. The food was fine, but you can't wait that long for food ... (Original) Ooit heb ik hier 5 sterren gegeven. Het eten en de cocktails blijven goed hier. Maar vandaag hier gegeten, en per ronde kan je minimaal een half uur wachten. Excuses gehoord als; "dat is de charme van tapas". En; "ja sorry, de keuken is onderbemand". Uit eindelijk ter compensatie wel alle drankjes op kosten gekregen van het restaurant. Maar ik twijfel of ik hier nog terug kom. Het eten was dus prima, maar zo lang wachten op eten kan gewoon niet...

    (Translated by Google) I think it is too small because too many tables are close together, which is very noisy (Original) Vind het te klein omdat er te veel tafels dicht op elkaar staan jammer erg rumoerig

  • 3/5 Jolanda F. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In itself good food and friendly staff, but the (small) tables are too close together. Because of this not really nice atmosphere. (Original) Op zich lekker eten en vriendelijk personeel, maar de (kleine) tafeltjes staan te dicht op elkaar. Hierdoor niet echt fijne sfeer.

  • 3/5 Lydia B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We were 4pers and the dishes came not per table but per x. When I finished my hot dishes, the rest of my table companions came. (Original) We waren met 4pers en de gerechten kwamen niet per tafel maar per x gebracht. Als ik klaar was met mijn warme gerechten kwam de rest v mijn tafelgenoten pas.

  • 1/5 hard gaan b. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) More than 3 dishes from the menu were gone. And all that at 6.30 pm. Then I thought I'd get tasty fried chicken pieces with honey sauce, do I get chicken nuggets with a few drops of sauce? If I had wanted nuggets I would have gone to the snack bar .. Very unfortunate this. (Original) Meer dan 3 gerechten van de kaart waren op. En dat al om 18.30. Vervolgens dacht ik lekkere gefrituurde kipstukjes met honing saus te krijgen, krijg ik kipnuggets met een paar druppeltjes saus? Als ik nuggets had gewild was ik wel naar de snackbar gegaan.. Heel jammer dit.

  • 1/5 laura d. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Staff is very slow and awkward. Indicated that the meatballs are not to eat, yet this will be charged. It was still raw .. Tables are too close together. When the waitress walks past her body touches your arms. Not pleasant if you try to eat. You order dishes together but you do not get the dishes at the same time. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes. Not so cozy .. (Original) Personeel is erg sloom en onhandig. Aangegeven dat de gehaktballetjes niet te eten zijn, toch word dit in rekening gebracht. Het was nog rauw.. Tafels staan te dicht bij elkaar. Wanneer de serveerster langsloopt komt haar lichaam tegen je armen aan. Niet prettig als je probeert te eten. Je bestelt gezamenlijk gerechtjes maar je krijgt de gerechtjes niet tegelijk. Soms zit er 10 minuten tussen. Niet zo gezellig..
