"A DMV-wide Cuban favorite that was previously announced as a coming-soon concession at the airport." - Tierney Plumb
"Sharing a colada is how we break the ice with strangers and bring sworn office enemies to the same table. If it’s an iconic colada moment you seek, there’s no place better than the Versailles ventanita. For the uninitiated, be prepared for loud political debates and a lot of gesturing. Don’t be alarmed. No one’s really angry (just over-caffeinated)." - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
"Colada Shop’s frozen pina coladas and daiquiris bring refreshing flavors with a smooth, icy finish. These vibrant cocktails give a modern twist to a tiki experience that pair perfectly with crispy empanadas, croquettes, and Cuban sandwiches. Its newest location just debuted at National Landing this week." - Claudia Rosenbaum
"The cute Cuban cafe off 14th Street NW is known for its blue-toned rooftop, where rum cocktails, cafe con leche, and croquetas are set to a beautiful mural backdrop. Reserve a table here." - Tierney Plumb, Vinciane Ngomsi
"While people fuel up on Cuban coffee and pastries at this Caribbean-styled cafe, pets can snack on special guava and peanut butter cookies named after a customer’s loyal dog, Apollo, who loved them." - Tierney Plumb, Vinciane Ngomsi
