For $3.50-$7, you can get filling roast pork, beef, chorizo, and cubano sandwiches, which we've been informed MUST be serviced with hot sauce for the full experience. Read more

If you're into leftovers, try something off their $10 fried/boiled/quartered chicken menu; you'll get at least three days' worth of food, along with sides of rice and beans. Read more

Packed at lunch with workers, but if you call ahead, you can be in and out. Pretty good pernil, though sometimes dried out.

Order the pernil with yellow rice & beans. Get the arroz con leche for dessert.

Chicken was kinda dry. Beans amazing but i always say that. Funny cute staff

Best Cubanos in the neighborhood, and the mofungo is not to be missed either. Get one of each and for $10 you won't need to eat again for two days.

Famous for the Cuban sandwich. It's the same $6 price as it was 20 years ago.

Steak sandwiches are the best. (Add cooked onions, lettuce, and cheese-YUM!!)

Best Cubano's you can get after a few bar runs in the LES. I prefer the liver Cuban...

Mofongo with pork. Enough said. Don't forget the garlic on the side!

Cubanos for $4.50, enormous lunch specials for $5. Much better deal than that weekend streetwalker.

Cuban might be good by NY standards but doesn't beat a S. FL Cuban.
