I had the WORST experience at Ybor Grille tonight. This place is not authentic Cuban food at all.
The beginning of our bad experience started with service. The waitress was terrible, took forever to get our drinks, and kept talking over me. We waited on waters for 20 minutes because “someone else was sat at the same time as us”. My mom ordered a martini, and she had to come back twice first because they were out of two types of vodka, and second because the glass was chipped. The server disappeared so I had to bring it back to the bar to reorder it. I understand that glasses can get chipped…that happens, but twice she brought it with olives instead of a lime twist. Whatever, simple directions are hard sometimes. We still waited on water after that fiasco for a very long time. We asked three different times for it, and for bread. Finally we got the waters and bread, shortly after our food followed. I had ordered palomilla and my grandmother ordered palomilla sandwich. My steak came without onions and looked like it was boiled. I asked why there weren’t any onions on it like it said on the menu, and with a bewildered look the waitress said oh what kind do you want? I also asked for chimichurri, she had no idea what that was either. I thought I was eating at a Cuban restaurant…they didn’t have any after I explained to her what it was and she asked. I took one bite of the less than appetizing steak and felt like I was biting into a cross between jerky and dog food. The taste was bland and mealy and terrible at the same time and it was very tough. My grandmother said she felt like she was biting into leather. We asked to speak to the manager. Brian, the manager came over, and with a look of bewilderment couldn’t believe that we didn’t like the steaks. I really wanted to say, you would serve someone this?!?! It looked terrible. I should’ve taken a picture. I wouldn’t have served it to my dog. After having to explain why the food tasted like crap he nicely offered to get us something else. There was already a bad taste in my mouth and there wasn’t any coming back. They did take the meals off, but I’m still hungry and I will never go back there and even attempt to give them my money. Little Habana Cafe (isn’t open on Sundays) is the only good Cuban restaurant around, and I will gladly drive there to get my Cuban food fix. Pass this place up if you want to avoid disappointment.
