"El Puro looks and feels straight out of pre-revolutionary Havana, with an atmosphere and a menu of Cuban classics to back it up. Go for dinner, when there’s live music (and, sometimes, a fun dance floor), and order some spinach and cheese fritters and fried pork shoulder that arrives on a small charcoal roasting grill, still smoking and smothered in garlic mojo. They have dependably great cocktails, served in tiki glasses and garnished with things like charred edible flowers, to drink in the glow of the neon sign hanging above the stage." - Tess Allen
