This was my first time visiting and my wife's second. We were in in town for a show at the Detroit Opera House and this place is just a short walk away. We arrived at about 6pm on a Friday and were immediately greeted and seated. My wife had the sangria, she enjoyed it very much. I had a house mojito and it was OK. The ambience is casual with Cuban music playing in the background. The food was the star of show! We started with beef empanadas which were fantastic, just the right amount of seasoning and the two sauces that come with them complement the dish perfectly. For dinner I had the Ropa Vieja, the beef was so tender and flavorful. My wife had the Pollo Limon. The chicken was crispy yet tender with a nice lemon butter sauce. The sauce was rich in a good way! We would certainly come back, possibly at lunch to try the Cubano sandwich which i was slightly disappointed to not see on the dinner menu.

Vicente's has always been a treat for great Cuban food in the downtown area. Me and my friends love to split a pitcher of sangria and I haven't found better sangria in the city yet. It's very spacious and rarely do I ever feel crowded when inside but sitting outside makes for great people watching. My go to order is the Pollo Diabla if you like spicy food with a big bed of rice, it's so filling and I always end up with a nice bit of leftovers.

The BEST Food I experienced while in Michigan. When I say everything was perfectly seasoned and the portions were amazing. The restaurant has this welcoming vibe as soon as you walk in. The staff was well versed on the menu and If they were unsure they asked someone. The owner came over and made suggestions on what to order and he was spot on.

Vicente's is a great place to come with a friend or on a date, but I'd be weary of ordering the paella ahead of time. I made reservations on Thursday for a Saturday visit, but because I also wanted to pre-order the seafood paella, I called to confirm my reservation. The hostess said she would write down my reservation and assured me that the chef would be informed about the pre-order. Maybe I'm a bit anal retentive, or it could be my OCD, but for whatever reason I called early on Saturday, to both confirm the reservation and the paella. It was the same hostess (she said she remembered me), and she again assured me that we were all set. However, hours later when we arrived (traffic caused us to arrive 12 minutes late) the 3 hostesses in the front all seemed to not know of the reservation. Luckily, they were not busy, and we were sat right away. I asked the hostess to let the chef know we were here, referencing our pre-order. Her blank face told me something was amiss. Cameron, our server, quickly said hello and was a star from the get go. Because I don't trust anyone and I had a bad feeling about the paella based on the look the hostess gave me, I asked Cameron to check on it. Cameron let me know that the chef was NOT given our pre-order, but that he would get the paella out as quickly as possible, which he did, without sacrificing the quality and taste.Cameron was an outstanding server. He was jovial and knowledgeable of the menu, and came around frequently enough without being interruptive. The owners need to treat this gentleman right, and do their best to find others like him. As for the food, EVERYTHING was amazing. We ordered a literal F TON of food, and not one dish was lacking in taste. I'll post the photos of our dishes soon.I'll most DEF be back, although I probably would not waste time with a reservation or pre-ordering again.

Great place, great food, but bring back Latin dancing! They have one of the best paellas in town! Definitely get seafood paella Cubana! Chicken, lobster, shrimp ..whole medley of seafood with just the right amount of flavor and juicy rice. Duck entree is succulent! Excellent dish. Lobster bisque is very good too- great flavor! We got a pitcher of sangria. And for dessert we got their chocolate shots with liquor! A must! They used to have Latin dances after dinner and it really made them stand out from other places. I guess they stopped doing it after Covid, but I hope they bring it back- free lessons used to be a lot of fun!

I wanted a steak with chimichurri sauce and my sister suggested Vicente's. We were seated immediately and our server brought us water. She was friendly and very attentive. We started with the calamari which was delicious. It has a butter caper sauce that adds an unexpected layer of flavor. The calamari is fried crispy and I love that there were no tentacles. The skirt steak with chimichurri was just what I wanted. The potatoes served with the steak were cooked perfectly. A nice crisp on the outside but soft on the inside. The next time I want a steak this will be one of my stops.
