In Short
Cuban posters encased in acrylic frames are one nod to the tropical nation, but the real stamps of authenticity are the old Cuban men engaged in heated conversation at the front window.

Traditional dishes, like the Cuban sandwich, ropa vieja--shredded beef in tomato sauce--and fried pork chops are standouts, along with standard sides like yucca, plantains and croquetas.
