Description

Clad in marble and bamboo and decorated with paintings of laid-back beach subjects, this humongous place specializes in the mash of plantains and pork bits dubbed mofongo, which is available in umpteen variations. The pernil variety is a good place to start, including a volcano-shaped heap of mofongo with a sprightly garlic sauce, a huge mound of good Cuban-style roast pork, and a salad so dry and small it might blow off the plate. But the place also functions as an upscale Dominican restaurant, offering steaks, large seafood assortments, and plenty of luscious pork products. Open 24 hours!
