When Angelenos are in the mood for Cuban food, they almost always think of this place. The casual eatery serves up hearty portions of the most succulent and authentic Cuban food around. The regulars come here for the famous garlic-marinated roast chicken and roast pork—both are to die for, but make sure you bring the breath mints! Also try the black bean soup, and the strong Cuban coffee. Beer and wine are served as well (by the glass only). Additional locations are 10319 Venice Boulevard, Culver City; +1 310 558 3168 and 1415 South La Cienega Boulevard, Los Angeles; +1 310 289 0392.
