  Cuban Burger is our favorite go-to in Harrisonburg. Friendly servers (and top notch owners!), fresh and tasty food, and don’t even get me started on the cocktails! We love the strawberry jalapeno margaritas or a mojito. The chop chop and El Vaquero are top notch! Do yourself a favor, and check out Cuban Burger

  First, the good: They had a special side that day of onion rings, and they were excellent. Also the grits were very good. The service was friendly and not bad aside from forgetting a couple of side dishes that we had to ask for twice. The bad: The food is unimpressive. Both the El Cubano Sandwich and the Crispy Pulled Pork sandwich were dry, and the meat-to-bread ratio was lacking (not enough meat on a thick roll). The Salsa Roja served with the pulled pork was okay, but not zesty enough to flavor a dry, bready sandwich. Better as a dipping sauce. Two of the three who ordered burgers said they didn't taste good. My 11-year-old ate all of his, but the other two adults quit after a bite or two. The Maduros (fried sweet plantains) were chewy; I suspect that either they were made with yellow plantains not ripe enough, or green plantains. The shoestring potatoes served with some dishes are both small in quantity and a waste of time in terms of flavor and edibility. No one ate theirs. I tried one and understood why: they don't taste like anything. I guess we were supposed to add them to the sandwich for crunch, but why? There's already enough starch in the meal. The ugly: One of our group asked for her burger well done but received a severely undercooked burger. She sent it back. The chef brought out another burger made "smashed" and assured my friend that it was cooked enough. But the inside was raw, even I could see that. My friend again sent it back. She received a complimentary order of grits instead, which were quite nice. But when she got her check, she had been charged for 50% of a burger in addition to her other items. Naturally she complained and they ended up cancelling her check, but the experience didn't make us want to go back. Neither did the food.
