"El Floridita, a Dominican-Cuban restaurant in Washington Heights, is known for their $8 Cuban, which is made on some of the most deeply garlic-infused bread we have ever had the pleasure of ingesting. But their Dominican food is also pretty good, like their mofongo with chicharron, and we love the servers, who might sing a line or two of Mamma Mia in Spanish as they bring you your lunch special. Add on the chicken pastelitos, which arrive at your table piping hot, with a blistered crust and a soft, tomatoey inside." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
