This is my third post about “The Caribbean Picnic”, on Henderson where the GoGo Bistro used to be. I finally made it in there yesterday. It’s a PUERTO RICAN restaurant with CUBAN food also. The two main offerings are Cuban sandwiches (ham, pork, usually pickles) and a Puerto Rican sampler, both $9. I’ve eaten a lot of Cuban sandwiches, having family in Florida, and this was not only better than average, it’s HUGE, easily two meals for the average person. They also have a selection of pretzels, not the little brittle kind but serious big puffy ones. The staff is welcoming and helpful and I will definitely be back. Any of you who visit this place, please share your opinions with us.
On another note, Marcelli’s Pizzaria (their spelling) had a soft opening a few days ago and folks were streaming in for lunch at what used to be Big Louie’s. They don’t have a website yet but they’re open 7 days and the menu looks a lot like the old BL one. You can call them at 497-6374 for eat-in, takeout, delivery or take’n’bake. So much to be grateful for! Please share your reviews with us. Bon appetit.
Is the Caribbean Picnic still in business?
Sadly, no. They were dark and shuttered when I drove by a couple of weeks ago.
Nice!
Thanks !
