    As Chicago's temperatures drop, a hot sandwich from this Cuban restaurant will be much more appealing. Go for their very authentic and mouthwatering Cuban Sandwich. Read more

    Being a regular since they were on Milwaukee Ave, here are some of my favorites: ox tail (entrées part), zacappa xo (plus all other rums, of course - this is the only bar rum I know of, in Chicago)

    Get your night started with one of their special not-on-the-menu margs, which has a shot of coconut rum. As our host explained, "It will get you where you need to be."

    The old Cuban cocktail is lovely, and the Flavors of Cuba appetizer gives you a nice sampler of what's on the menu.

    Everything we had was great! The oxtails were awesome, the goat was tender and tasty. Red snapper was crispy but tender.

    The sign on the whitewashed brick outside calls Paladar a rum bar, and you’d do well to start your meal with a mojito. Read more

    The Congri rice is not as good as the menu suggests, but the empanada guava with cheese is the money shot.
