Azucar Description:
The food is as lively as the scene at Azucar, where Cuban and Spanish dishes are served with unexpected flair. Steak lovers might find there's even more to love when sirloin is served encendido---strips of it cooked in a hot peppery red wine reduction sauce. The chef-owner is Nick Vazquez, who likes to serve foods he enjoyed in his family's kitchen when he was growing up in Cuba. Count among those dishes mejillones salteados---shelled mussels in a garlic saffron white wine sauce. The lunch menu is smaller but tempting, especially Ivette's sandwich de pollo al grill which features grilled pieces of marinated boneless chicken layered between lettuce, tomatoes, pan-fried onions and lime potato sticks. We also suggest the frijoles negros tropical, Vazquez' mother's black bean soup. Service is well meaning but sometimes a little slow.
