I was in town for New Year's Eve and staying at the Country Inn and Suites next door. The friendly doorguy at the hotel recommended Liborio's Cuban restaurant for lunch. We were all so glad he did. Our group ordered empanadas, cuban sandwiches and lechon. Everything was absolutely delicious! The cuban sandwich and empanadas were some of the best I've had. Both items had a good amount of flavorful meat. From what I remember, it was just a little pricey overall and the service wasn't that great, not the friendliest servers. But the food more than made up for it.
