Cafecito

There aren't a ton of Cuban dining options in Chicago but the ones that are here are all pretty amazing for their ambiance and food. Cafecito is a nice option in the South Loop, with gourmet pressed sandwiches (try the popular Cubano sandwich), entrees and specialty salads inspired by the culinary traditions of Latin American countries. To make it a traditional meal, pair the Cubano sandwich with a side of black bean soup or a bag of plantain chips. The laid back, café-style restaurant also serves breakfast sandwiches with ingredients such as chorizo and palomilla steak. There are two locations in the Loop area, making it even more convenient to satisfy those Cuban cuisine cravings.
