Cuban Sandwich

Recommended by Jane & Michael Stern and 7 other food critics.

Recommendations

"These are beautiful Cuban sandwiches, the crisp-toasted length of bread enveloping roast pork, salami, ham, melted cheese, a surfeit of pickle slices, mustard, and mayo."
"Their Cubano is the best in town, adding slices of salami to the usual ham and pork roast, well-lubricated with both mayo and grainy mustard and not stinting on the pickles, either. Divided into threes and pressed flat as a pancake — chef Carl Casper couldn't do it any better."
"An under six-dollar sandwich stuffed with three meats, juicy roasted pork plus ham and salami, fusing with Swiss cheese, mayo, mustard, garlic, and thick slices of pickles in a beautiful rainbow of meaty, salty, creamy and sweet, hugged by classic barely-crusty Cuban bread. Delicious."
"Ultimately, Margon’s Cubano is a mess of tasty ingredients, and while a somewhat different take on the traditional Cuban sandwich, everything blends nicely and all parts of the sandwich complement one another."
"There are also a number of places you can go on the fly to enjoy a cheaper, quicker Cuban meal: the Cuban sandwiches of Margon near Times Square are excellent, for example."
"This bustling lunch counter gets bonus points for its deeply flavorful roast pork, its wild-card addition of a slice of salami, and its offer of an optional squirt of hot sauce along with mojo and mayo."
"The Absolute Best Cuban Sandwich in New York: 2. Margon - It’s on the sloppy, sluicy side thanks to a no-holds-barred approach to lubrication that calls for garlic sauce, hot sauce, and — most controversially — mayo. More controversy: In addition to slices of roast pork and ham, they toss on salami the way they do in Tampa, Florida."
"I love the Cubano Sandwich filled with roast pork, ham AND salami as well as oxtail stew, ribs, and the whole fried fish."
