Let us know how the cuban is, may be worth a road trip
Rio Crystal and Lila's (on Coral Way) are 2 of my favorites. Either place the thing to get is the palomilla steak marinated in garlic amd lime juice covered with a mountain of fries!!!

Was just there today!

Enjoyed the roast pork plate.

Flan for desert along with a cafe Cubano.

Oh, and a mojito when we first arrived.

Yeah, I over did it. LOL

Soooo I went all the way up there to Salisbury, dropped off hubby and went to the Lazy 5. Got impossibly lost and ended up somewhere an hour north west. Called for directions turned back around finally got to Lazy 5. Kids got terrified by the bison who nibbled on them. ( ) But had a great time. Got lost IN lazy five and ended up going around twice in it. Sigh. Finally drove out of it and back to Salisbury picked up hubby and was exhausted. We just grabbed some fast foods and went home. Will have to go back there next month and will try the Mambo Grill. Have I mentioned that I hate driving? lol

The one in steele creek on 49? I didn't care for it. We only went once though, maybe it was a bad night as I know there are some good reviews. But its far from me but if I'm in the area, I'll give it another try.
