Cuba Libre in Dallas – Tex–Mex-Jamaican adventure extraordinaire!

Share

It is perhaps not a surprise that Dallas should frequent some of the finest Latino, Mexican and Tex Mex restaurants on this side of the border with Mexico. What is gratifying however, is to find an establishment that innovates with nouvelle Tex-Mex fused with distinct Jamaican influences, with an elegant, happening ambiance to match and raises this to fine art! Marrying a vibrant and flamboyant ambiance with a great menu and mesmerizing presentation is a killer combination that Cuba Libre in downtown Dallas delivers with panache and elan.

What brings me back for more:

I love Mexican, Cuban and West Indian cuisine and to find an establishment that is eclectic enough to draw from all of these to deliver a sumptuous menu is indeed, fulfillment of my heart’s desires! Add an incredible ambiance, superb music and lots of beautiful people and you have a happening adventure that is worthy of exploration indeed!


My Favorites:

Hors d’oeuvres:

  • The Hawaiian Plantain Chips are a house signature dish and highly recommended, especially with a side of their awesome Guacamole, and is guaranteed to spark some incredible conversation between friends and some awesome chemistry between romantic couples!:-)

  • The Chicken Tortilla Soup although heavy, will stimulate your taste buds and prepare them for the fantastic culinary delights that separates Cuba Libra from the hundreds of Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants in this megalopolis.

  • The Jamaican Rum Cake served with vanilla ice cream and mandarin orange glaze is a house signature dish and highly recommended.
Rarely do I come across an establishment that offers an adventure that is worthy of exploration time and again.
