  • My husband and I visited this wonderful restaurant tonight because of DDD. First off we had a wonderful server named, Isabelle. She was just so friendly and helpful. Then Raul was walking around talking to everyone, great guy. Oh and then the food. I ordered the chicken and my husband ordered the pork, both were the dishes featured on DDD. They were fantastic. I would order the chicken again in a heart beat. We had a pork tamale to start that was delicious. We finished with the bread pudding with ice cream that Isabelle recommended. It was seriously to die for. We drove over an hour to visit and will definitely be back!!! We visited the Armitage location and we did make a reservation. It was quite busy for a Sunday around 6:00pm. by Sondra Sun 08/26/2012 12:00 AM Joined Aug 2012 1 Posts 1 Restaurant Visits

CitySearch Tips

Where to Sit

If you’re lucky enough to go on a warm day, grab a shaded high-top amidst the greenery on the lush, airy patio.

What to Drink

Eight fruity shake flavors are offered. Try the Mamey, made from a tropical fruit that Cubans consider an aphrodisiac. The restaurant is BYO, so bring some rum to add zing to your shake.

The Extras

Check out 90 Miles' other location at 3101 North Clybourn Avenue.

Fun Fact

Patrons can contribute to the kitschy decor. Diners are encouraged to doodle and sing the restaurant’s praises on a quickly filling section of wall.

  • GrubHub Chicago
    Best Cuban sandwiches. The cafe cures its pork and ham for pressed sandwiches like the mainstay Cubano and the house special "Lechón", which's stuffed w/ pulled pork, grilled onions,& fried plantains.

    It doesn?t require a trip across any ocean to guess that the signatures?like pulled-pork-and-plantain and ?Cuban style??tofu sandwiches?will be a welcome addition to restaurant-barren Hamlin Park. -KV
