Media Noche Cuban Cuisine - Covina

Super yummy great service. Has now become one of my regular go to places. And they have live music on the weekends.

Food was not worth the price. Very small portions and not anything special. There aren't many cuban places in the area so many people have nothing to compare the subpar food with. Service was bare minimum. Didn't seem like they wanted to answer the phone. Upon arrival there was no one at the front desk. I waited for 5 mins before anyone came out.

We arrived there was only 2 other patrons at a table. After waiting almost 40 minutes the waitress took our orders a second time. It took almost 2 1/2 hours to get all 4 plates on the table. We asked to speak to manager, but waitress said manager was not there. So my friend left her number, the waitress than apologize for long wait and said manager would call. Of course no call back. If you want to eat lunch here you should order in the a.m. and hope it ready by dinner.

We have been going to this restaurant for 3 years, it WAS great. Now horrible, the owners and workers need to get it to getter quick or they will be out of business. We stopped in 10 days ago, thought Emapanadas, would be fast, 30 minutes later they came, hot and fresh, we also ordered a cuban seafood stew. Another 20 minutes goes by, we had to go, I went to the kitchen, a girls said its ready, good but after more than 45 minutes, sad. So, last night my wife had a stalk of plantains, she wanted to give to the restaurant. We tried to get Empanadas, this time 45 later we 4 Emapanadas, but not the main course, good but service was poor, we had to listen and watch 2 TV's with kids cartoons playing and kids running around. No refills on water. Another 25 minutes to get mortos con christianos and marinated pork. The pork was deep fried, but old Double cooked, to nothing, check the photo, the black beans in rice were heated to a crisp in the microwave and in a clump. We asked for our check as the main course came, no bill, my wife had to open the kitchen door and ask again. Fail, fail, lazy people, reheating old food, and doing bad at it.. Never again will we go back...

OMG our hidden treasure right by our house! We have traveled to little Havana in Miami, ate at Versailles restaurant that was recommended to us. We loved it we went back to it the next day. We went to versialles in West LA but it was too far, and we only ate the when we were in the area. Media Noche outperformed both IMO. The food was delicious I loved every bite. I got the Masa De Puerco, it came with white rice, Black bean on the side, yucca underneath the perfectly fried pork on top of it, garnished with Platano Maduro. Every bite is filled with authentic Cuban flare. It felt like his mother was guiding his hand when preping the dish. We were so amazed we had to personally thank him for everyone. He asked, How was it? as I pointed to my empty plate telling him this is our new spot. We are kicking ourselves for not trying this spot out. We would drive by and hear the music blasting and thought we should try this place and never followed through. It 's great location to where we live five minutes away to get home after having the itus. I relied on my wife who was previously married to a Cuban and was learning all about the Cuban cuisine. She explained that this food is exactly like her previous in-law 's cooking. We alerted alot of our Cuban family members about this place and are planning to come eat here. Just came from Sunday buffet and got everything set out this place is amazing! I posted a video of how soft my fried pork is.
