The Review: Blue Plate Oysterette
Know something we don't?
There is live music here on Fridays but maybe the best time to come with the extended family is on a weekend at lunchtime. The cool tiled dining room is comfortable for lingering, the food from chef Rolando Gonzalez (formerly of Madre's in Pasadena) is refined versions of favorite Cuban dishes, and the lunch prices are terrific. Entrees such as a meaty, delicious chicken fricassee are served with rice, beans and a choice of plantains, yuca or French fries. That Sunday midday dinner is $10. Or maybe just get the fabulous tamales, $4 each.

What a hidden gem! We came here for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. Our waiter was very friendly and Don Rolando came around to recommend some dishes...
Let me first start off by saying that I have not had any entree here, only appetizers. That being said, the other night a group I belong to had a meeting...
