Considered the best Cuban restaurant in town - worth the trip. It is simple and not fancy (a bit tacky) and very well priced. It will be a real experience. Try the ropa vieja, vaca frita (carne or pollo), palomilla steak (thin), the tamales, yuca (frita or hervida), croqueta, pasteles, sandwiches (medianoche and Sandwich Cubano) and desserts. Best of all the Cuban Coffee (cafe, cortadito or cafe con leche). The outside counter is iconic and priceless. Enjoy!

Small, incredibly delicious, inexpensive sushi with a nice "boat" experience. Be prepared to wait in line for a long time unless you are lucky - or try earlier, or later, when it rains, or early in the week, or just wait - it is worth it:)

Our favorite small local supermarket (for a large American one go to Publix) , conveniently located just 4 blocks away, this local grocer has a Latin feel and everything you need, ESPECIALLY a great butcher to buy meats to cook on our BBQ. Also has fresh fruit and vegetables and a totally Spanish speaking experience. Great Cuban coffee, fresh bread and "empanadas" (pasties) too.
