Cafecito

Owner Philip Ghantous, who with his shaved head and youthful gaze looks a bit like actor Billy Zane, roasts the meat for his Cubano in-house and marinates it in a garlic-and-citrus-flavored mojo sauce. The whole package here features the perfect amount of tangy pickles and mustard and proper ratio of ham, roast pork and Swiss cheese to crusty, grilled bread.
