Customer Reviews
El Mago de las Fritas is one of those places that immediately makes you feel at home. The service was friendly, warm, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. The frita was absolutely delicious and exactly what you hope for when craving this Cuban classic. The flavors were spot on. I also ordered the ajiaco, a traditional soup packed with different roots, vegetables, and meats. One spoonful instantly brought me back to home in Cuba, comforting, rich, and full of flavor. I also tried the chicharrón. While in the U.S. the term usually refers to the meatier portion of pork belly, in Cuba chicharrón is typically the crispy pork skin. That said, what they served was still fresh, flavorful, and very enjoyable. Overall, a great experience with authentic flavors and welcoming service. I’m alr
The best fritas in town. An awesome little Cuban place. Must try these Cuban Fritas they are a great experience. If you never try them, please do so! Not a burger, but a Cuban version of it.
Was welcomed as soon as i came in. I knew what i came for but staff offered to explain fritas and offer suggestions. Food was delicious and absolutely what i needed. The watermelon juice was delicious and my frita w egg was the best ive ever had. Next time, ill try coffee and dessert.
We stopped in for lunch and were pleasantly surprised with our first time having Cuban food. The food was amazing! We tried a few different versions of the Frita and they were all delicious! The employees were so friendly and helpful explaining the different options to our party of six.
Wonderful Cuban Burger spot! Was recommended by a close friend and it did not disappoint! The malteada shake was deliciously paired with the Fritas Tradicional.
