La Bamba Cuisine

About

La Bamba Cuisine brings Puerto Rican cooking to Cortland, with a little Dominican food and a few Cuban plates rounding out the menu. The kitchen focuses on traditional flavors and cooking techniques that have been passed down through generations. It’s a welcome addition to Cortland’s mix of restaurants.

The menu leans on that blend of influences, aiming for a balance of savory and sweet and a seasoning of herbs and spices that makes Caribbean food so distinctive. In a college town like Cortland, home to SUNY Cortland, it adds a different set of flavors to the local dining scene.
