The menu adheres to Cuban favorites like vaca frita–shredded bits of steak fried with onions and copious amounts of garlic–and lechon asado, or roast pork, dripping with sour orange mojo sauce. Order a mojito–there are six different kinds, including mango, ginger, champagne and coconut variations–at the sleek bar in the front of the restaurant, where a band plays Cuban standards . Diners preferring quiet conversation can head to the back room, where the music is faintly audible and the décor evokes a backyard patio, complete with outdoor furniture and faux-laundry hanging on clotheslines to dry.Saturday and Sunday brunch boasts unlimited sangria–pineapple or red wine versions–and bottomless mimosas. —
