This small, tidy spot of homestyle Cuban eats features hearty and gratifying traditional dishes that keep the restaurant's Cuban, Colombian, and Puerto Rican patrons coming back on a regular basis. The Cuban sandwich is almost a rite of passage here, but there are other good dishes, too: Slow-cooked meats redolent with garlic, onions, and cumin; stuffed, crumbly cups of fried plantains; and seasoned black beans and rice flecked with onions, peppers, and bits of pork. The Cuban-style desserts -- flan, flaky pastries filled with tropical fruits, and bread pudding kissed with guava – made fresh each morning, may be sweeter than what you're used to, but they make for a delicious ending to the meal all the same.
