A LO CUBANO TROPICAL – Cuban
A small corner of Cuba on Palm Avenue in Hialeah, running from breakfast straight through dinner. Desayunos open the day, then the board widens into aperitivos, criollo platos, Cuban sandwiches, ensaladas, pizzas and spaghetti, with the parrilla specials carrying the kitchen. Churrasco is the dish people come back for, cooked hard over fire and repeatedly singled out against neighbouring competition. Acai bowls sit oddly and happily beside it, and draw their own following. Postres and strong Cuban coffee close things out. Music plays, the owners work the floor, and service stays personal. Delivery is available too. Neighbourhood pricing, neighbourhood pace.
