rancho alegre cuban restaurant

food was great, but service left much to be desired. at the height of lunch hour there were only 3 servers. will try again when not on a timeline.

service was nice food was horrible!

worst food ever!! either all previous reviews are written by the owner or they just really believe this is what cuban food is supposed to taste like! well believe me it definitely does not! i am puerto rican/cuban and i am embarrassed and offended that this place is trying to pass this off as authentic cuban food! they may have hector or celia playing in the background but that's about as ethnic as this place gets! the yellow rice had absolutely no flavor and truly tasted like minute rice. the bistec was dry with no flavor what so ever! the pink beans just as bland! where's the sofrito? at this point i didn't even want to waste another dime by ordering a marguerita just to find out it would have tasted like water with lemon! urbanspoon reviews were definitely misleading on this one! don't waste your $$$!!!

tried the pulled pork and the skirt steak with the chime churri sauce. both had such wonderful flavor! and the fried plantains left me wanting more. very nice change to the typical southern fried food common in savannah.

great local spot away from all of the touristy restaurants. amazing food, one of the best palomilla steaks i've had. cool yerba matte sodas,friendly staff and a quaint homey environment.

best cuban food in savannah hands down! service is very good and the prices are right.

we were in cuban heaven for sure! the roasted pork they serve is out of this world. the restaurant also had a nice ambience and so i neglected/decided to not use my flash, so be aware, there are some crazy yellow pictures after the jump!

great off the beaten path cuban restaurant. friendly staff great sangria, plantains and you have to share the tres leches cake. excellent value. wonderful flavors.

love the new location. you must try the pork tamales! i also love the plantains. thank you for opening a downtown location!

great atmosphere, fast friendly service, and thank god they have cortadito's

never had cuban food before! it was great and will hands down be going back for more!!!!

first time to a cuban place. wasn't what i was expecting at all. very good! the food was great!

excellent service and great food! wide selection of authentic cuban dishes. and you know you want a carafe of sangria ;)

amazing. this restaurant was an amazing find. the food is unbelievable! it is hidden in savannah, but well worth the visit!

great food, great atomosphere. very healthy options for entrees that leave you full. the restaurant itself is in an old house, if you've ever been to cuba, costa rica, you'll get a very nostalgic feeling. excellent option!

very authentic experience in terms of interior setting and menu. great meals, very good service, very reasonably priced
