Sophie's Cuban Cuisine - Union Square

I think my favorite Sophie’s location is the Flatiron one.. it’s the only location where the staff are actually friendly. I stopped in today to grab my usual empanada (I usually go for the empanadas and oxtails, though lately their oxtails have been really bland). I normally go to another location, but since I was nearby, I decided to stop in .. unfortunately, I was met with attitude, even though the store was literally empty. I just asked for a bag and got a bunch of unnecessary attitude. I don’t understand. I’m going to stick with the Flatiron location. Safe to say I won’t be back here. How is it that I’m “bothering” anyone when there’s LITERALLY NOT A SINGLE CUSTOMER in the store? And I know the only thing the owner is going to do is reply to this post with a broken link 🙃

The Combo #2 (Cuban sandwich, chips and a drink) was fantastic and a very reasonable price. The is more of a grab and go spot, so choose park nearby and enjoy the meal.

The cuban sandwich was dry that's y I ask for mayo on it an they forgot to put it in the sandwich but the fries was cooked good an the beef empanada was okay just disappointed with it all but the staff was nice

Good food, I got the small grilled chicken with rice and beans. The chicken, rice and beans were cooked well. The chicken was slightly seasoned, the rice was fluffy but not wet, and the beans were fresh. Small seating area that fits 2, maybe 3 people max for dine in.

I have to edit my review for this location only. My most recent review with my posting of the pork chop meal with yellow rice was bad. The rice was hard like it was left over a few days already and the pork chop was not what I expected. I wanted the baked chicken. But they did not have it.
