 I'd nominate Miami Restaurant on Centre St in JP.  Not much on atmosphere,
 and knowing Spanish will help with reading the menu.  When I was there I noticed
 a lot of people ordering freshly squeezed sugar cane.  I have no idea where
 on the menu or "black-board" it is.  I just dropped in for a quick bite, so
 a review is not in order.

 And El Oriental, also on Centre St. in JP, has Cuban food as well
 (including Cuban sandwiches).  You can also go across the street
 to the Hi-Lo supermarket to get the raw ingredients to make your
 own Cuban food...
