I'm gonna go to LA this summer, so I was wondering whether I should eat there. I think it's quite pricey and I was wondering if it's actually good cuban food. I'm from Miami, so I know what good cuban food tastes like.

i told me my mom i wanted to go for a graduation trip, but times are tough lol so i'll settle with whatever she gives me

Sorry...can't help you. I've never been there...but i would love to got there someday

I went, I had a steak and a J.Lo martini and then Jen came towards the end and we split a creme brulee and talked about clothes

And by that I mean I've never been but may go to L.A. this summer as well

You're gonna love it there!

i'd love to go one day

I think my girlfriends and I are going this summer, or so I've been told. We're definitely going to Madre's.

Sorry I can't help you on this one either, It's still on my "Things to do before I die" list! lol

i have a list similar to that too! and i wanna go to Madre's soo bad and have Ropa Vieja!

well i could go to madre's if i really wanted it but im trying to stay off food so stop bothering me with this whole madre issue okay?my main madre right now is to get that hot fendi spybag!

I will go one day!

omg

Yuuummm.

Isn't there a long waiting list to eat there?

Hell, I live in L.A. and haven't gone anywhere near it. Perhaps I should make that a must this summer.

I think it's like a 2 week waiting list.

^ Eff that. As a sister in the service industry, I'll use my knowledge of "waiting lists" to get in. lol

Alex, can you get on this, please?


Those are last year, lol. The new MJ bowling bags are better.

Erika from bellalopez.com has been there

i've never been there...not even in my dreams

That's right. I knew that. Thanks, Frank. Maybe I'll e-mail her.

That was right when it first opened, I remember seeing that on VH1.

no need i'm here
YOU HAVE TO GO! no questions about it...you ALL DO! The place is so lovely. The waiters/waitresses are soooooo stuck up...though lol just smile and act like you got big bucks to tip...The food is yummy....oMG the desserts (you don't want to eat them just look)! and Mr. Lopez might just stop by your table make sure everything is great (that's your chance to slip him a note to Jen..that's what i did haha..)
As far as the waitlist it's definitely a good idea to make reservations far in advance so you're guaranteed a nice table...ask for a booth or the 'sunroom' where Jen eats....not guaranteed but worth a shot...let's see what else...dress NICE - you'll see nothing but snobs up in the mix...

hang out by the bar in the little sitting area and sip a JLO martini (didn't have this but had mojitos!!)..i didn't get to cuz my obnoxious brother wanted to leave...

all in all my head was spinning from just being there..so you're guaranteed a good time...everything IS pricey..our bill was almost $500.00 for 4 of us...granted we had a 4 meal course and drinks i might post my pics from there...*i always promise but forget*

oh yeah...keep in mind this was almost 3 1/2 years ago so i hope things haven't changed much...

WTF $500 WOW

i think $500 is ok for 4 people since its not Mcdonalds you're going
