Here's a hint that the food is good: the tables are always packed with obese cops.\r

El Exquisito is a clean, inexpensive restaurant that serves very nice Cuban food. I usually have masitas de puerco, yuca, and beans and rice. The pork is crunchy, juicy, and tender on the inside. I like to ask for fried onions to go with it.\r
\r
The boliche is also good.\r
\r
I can't say the desserts are great, but you won't really need one, after the giant portions.\r
\r
The wait staff is very nice, and they put shaved ice in the Cokes, which is extremely important. English very weak.\r
\r
Avoid, when they have live music. Trust me. You can't hear yourself think.\r

It's nice to know a good Cuban place, now that Miami's Cuban restaurants have so many Central American cooks who have no idea what they're doing.
