Vicente’s Cuban Cuisine · Downtown
Vicente's Cuban Cuisine creates the atmosphere of a celebratory Havana dining room through live music, dancing, and a menu of ropa vieja, lechon, seafood, and pressed sandwiches. Family style combination dinners give newcomers a broad introduction, while mojitos keep the downtown room lively into the evening.
Frita Batidos Detroit · Downtown
Frita Batidos Detroit centers its menu on Cuban inspired fritas, loose chorizo patties layered with shoestring fries on soft egg buns. Tropical fruit batidos, twice fried plantains, and churros complete the fast casual format, served from a bright downtown counter close to the stadium district.
