    Avenue C's Cafecito is closing to the despair of loyal regulars. Sunday will be the last day of service and we highly recommend you check out this joint for some delicious meals before the bitter end. Leer más

    Pro tip: order the quartered Cuban as your appetizer to split with the table so you can save room for one of their equally delicious entrees. Leer más

    The veggie empanadas were probably some of the best empanadas I've ever had. Cheesy and delicious! Worth going just to try them. Plantain chips with garlic sauce were good too.

    Named after the three milks it's soaked in (evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream), the "tres leches" sponge cake here is better than any I've had in NYC and as good as most I've had in Latin America

    If you're willing to take the stroll deep into Alphabet City, Cafecito is definitely worth the footwork. Very cozy & casual. The adobo pork is a solid bet. Extremely satisfying & filling.

    Cozier than you'd think in the restaurant section but the sandwich side is nice and airy, especially when the weather is nice.

    The plantain chips with garlic dipping sauce are amazing as well as the Cuban sandwich and tres leches cake.

    Order off the menu and get the braised lamb shank if they have it. Feeds 2, ridiculously cheap and the best thing on or off the menu.

    Spot #1 on Harry's very well planned first date with Alice. Unpretentious Cuban fare in the East Village. #HPlusA

    The ropa veja was delicious but very salty! Pairs well with a mango margarita (and a gallon of water)

    The churrasco is ridiculously good, especially with all the accompaniments. Their picadillo is very flavorful and fresh tasting. Skip the appetizers please!! Grouper ceviche, garlic shrimp is ok.

    I know Cuban food. This place has it. Ropa vieja has a deep tangy sweet flavor unlike most ropa viejas in town. Beans on point.

    Order the bistec de pollo and substitute the yellow rice and pink beans for white rice and black beans. It's enough to feed two!

    Empanadas were pretty decent, nothing special. I got bamboozled by the server on the supposed "dinner specials" which was not very good and was pricy $$$. I don't get why this place is an 8.8 really..

    Food? Delicious! Service? Our waitress was delightful. The drinks were watery, but maybe that's Friday night. The only problem was the petty meanness of the jerk acting as maitre'd.
