TU CASA RESTAURANT – Mexican
A small family-run Dominican kitchen on South Orange Blossom Trail where the portions arrive oversized and the prices do not. The chicharron is the signature, pork or chicken, crunchy and rich, plated with rice and sweet plantains. Around it: mofongo con chicharron de pollo, arroz con gandules with pernil and tostones, bistec encebollado, pollo a la brasa, rice with black beans, and bread pudding to finish. Diners keep mentioning the owners as much as the food, and how far a modest bill goes here. A neighborhood staple, not a secret.
