A Critic Finds Comforting Cuban Fare in Logan Square | Eater Chicago

"I found an alluring Cuban experience in Logan Square: the "gold-standard" Cubano is an "unusually stacked version" boasting ham, pork tenderloin, cheese, pickles, butter, and mustard. The kitchen's "deft touch" with the fryer produces "soft, creamy" ham croquettes, "flaky" empanadas, and "dense, caramelized" fried sweet plantains. Beefy classics include a "formidable" vaca frita — deep-fried flank steak topped with onions — while chalkboard specials range from seafood paella to a meaty soup called ajiaco Cubano that's full of "depth." The bar pours some "surprisingly boozy yet balanced" mojitos, making Taste of Havana a success on all fronts." - Jeffy Mai
