When I learned there was a Cuban restaurant in Chestnut Hill, I started craving a Mojito. iCuba! is located in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. the restaurant offers live Cuban Jazz as well as Salsa on Sundays. Initially I wanted appetizers and cocktails. The restaurant offers different flavors of mojito so I ordered a mango mojito and it was absolutely delicious. The mixture of flavors were perfectly combined. For my appetizers, I ordered the Sopa de Cangrejo(crab soup) which is a tomato and cilantro based soup garnished with crab meat and crispy plaintains. I also ordered the meat empanadas which were crispy tortillas filled with seasoned ground beef. I was also able to sample the cuban sandwich sliders which was a minature version of the traditional Cuban sandwich. The staff delivered excellent service.
I look forward to visiting again for dinner, another delicious mojito(maybe two) and dessert this time!

I have always wondered about that place. Thanks for the great write up. I will have to check it with the hubby on Sunday and pretend I didn’t realize there were salsa lessons. Then I will pull my heels out of my purse and put them on as he stands there…
