Fodor's Review:

This popular Latin-Caribbean restaurant is owned by a couple with years of hotel and restaurant experience in Cuba and throughout the Caribbean. Cheerful Adela serves (and makes delicious desserts) while Tom slaves away in the kitchen, turning out mouth-watering, perfectly spiced dishes such as smoked pork chops smothered in a tart tamarind sauce. The wine list focuses on South American and Spanish vintages. There are just six tables in the pretty patio garden and four tables inside the intimate dining room—and they fill up fast.

  • Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
  • Credit Cards: MC, V
  • Closed: Closed Sun. and Oct. No lunch
