Cuban Shack

The room is styled like a corner of Cuba, filled with upbeat music. Aside from the standard menu, the kitchen excels with seasoned pan con pernil and crispy chicharrones. Sides are a major draw: the plantain chips are light and crisp, and the fried plantains are a standout. If you order the chicken, note that the rice has a tendency to turn out a bit mushy. Portions are generous enough for a heavy lunch, though you should expect a short wait to be served when the room fills up.
