The Scene
For a Southern city, Richmond certainly has its share of Cuba-lovers. From the food to the cigars to the music, the Cuban fever that seems to be sweeping the rest of the country has found its way to Richmond as well. Kuba-Kuba in the Fan satisfies those cravings for Cuban food and music. The paella is a favorite here, and it comes in bountiful servings. The space on scenic Park Avenue has been transformed from what used to be a pharmacy into a bright and cheerful, Latin eatery. It's a great spot for people-watching, as VCU students and downtown dwellers mingle to the Cuban rhythms that accompany the fare. A little bit of Havana is yours when you taste Kuba's Cuban coffee, a rich aromatic blend that will wake you up if the music doesn't.

In town on business and I like to stay away from chains if possible. Kuba kuba was the best food I had all week in Richmond. The chorizo stuffed pork tenderloin was outstanding! If I were a local this would be regular stop for me.

How dare you imply that my wife doesn't know how to order cuban food! We both speak perfect English and were able to convey our order to our incompetent waitress just fine. You know, after reading your response to my post, perhaps you aren't Cuban after all. You probably are from the other island, you know...Puerto Rico. You clearly are oblivious as to what Cuban food is all about.

I completely disagree with the people that did not like the food. Probably they went there in a bad day or they themselves were having a terrible week. However, the food was great, and yeah if you ask around for what you want (MADUROS), u ll get them. I'm Latina born and raised in southamerica, I know what real food taste like and this is similar, however due to the amrican ingredients they have to use, it will never taste like the real thing. But it was pretty much close! NICE FOOD!
