Authentic Cuban Food?

Question

Anyone know of any Authentic Cuban Restaurants in Chicago? I am 1/2 Cuban but was raised by a Mexican Step-Mother (My mom died when I was 4). I told my husband I would like him to take me to a Cuban Restaurant for our 8yr Wedding Anniversary which is July 1st....

Answer 1

OK. here's the catch. I've never eaten at Cafe 28 on Irving Park but my co-worker does and swears it's the best, most authentic Cuban reataurant he's ever been to. Hope this at least gives you a start point.

And Happy Anniversary to you both.

Answer 2

I know I have seen some Cuban sandwiches place on either Elston or Milwaukee Avenue.  Not a restaurant, but maybe go there and ask the people what restaurants they know of?  Sorry can't help more.  Hope others will help...  Happy Anniversary!
