What People Are Saying About Margon

In Short – The look is no-frills and the crowd is noisy, but local workers get in line at this lunch counter for authentic and inexpensive Cuban fare. Specials change daily, but regulars rely on the standards--eggs, potatoes, and tropical shakes for breakfast and Cuban sandwiches, pork chops, and octopus salad for lunch, with huge plates of rice and beans on the side. Hungry customers weave through the slim space to snag tables in the back.

Great for the price!

I love trying out new lunch spots and my friend brought me to Margon and I have been hooked ever since. The food is always fresh and coming out from the back and the flavor is pretty close to home cooked as you can get in Times Square. I recommend the cuban sandwiches and the octopus salad. Only negative to this place is that there is limited seating.
- Pros: Great Price, Fast Service, Great Food
- Cons: Limited Seating

Fast and easy

really small so go to take out. Almost can never find any seating. The give you 2 plates, one for your rice and beans and salad. The other plate for your entree which is overflowing the plate all for $7. How can you beat that price??? Great price and the food is good. its not a fancy Cuban place, think Chipotle for mexican food - margon is that for Cuabn food. Every day, they have different dishes.
- Pros: fast, good tasting

Tastes great, very filling

Margon is the best kept secret in NY. The food tastes great and they give your plate is overflowing. There is zero ambiance, but are you at a restaurant staring at the walls or to enjoy the meal? This is definitely not health food (the chicken is pretty oily but that oil is flavorful, let me tell ya) so I wouldn't eat here everyday, but for that once a month treat, head over to Margon. And go hungry!
- Pros: Pretty cheap, Lots of food, Convenient location
- Cons: Food a little greasy, Zero ambiance, Cramped space
