We're working on finding the best Cuban Sandwich in Florida and we've been eating at Spanish restaurants for nearly a month, and then New Times names Sury's Cafe the best Cuban Sandwich in Broward and Palm Beach. We've been driving by this place for years and it was already on our list of places to check out. New Times made it a priority.

So how was the Cuban? One of the best ever, we definitely think it fits into our Book of Tens and we'll let you know where Sury's Cafe placed in a few weeks.

Sury's Cafe is a very cool place to eat. It's basic order and go, no more than a walk up window, a counter and four stools. The walk up window is about three feet off Andrews Avenue, less than a block south of Sunrise Boulevard. When you park in the back (about 6 spaces), you enter into world unlike any other in Fort Lauderdale. There are quirky Cuban folk art paintings with religious figures and scenes of countryside adorning the parking lot fence and walls.

The menu is minimalist, offering only steak and chicken sandwiches, empanadas, Cubans, fries, black beans and rice, Cuban coffee and traditional egg and toast breakfasts. The restaurant opens at 7:30 AM and closes at 4 PM.

We went for the Cuban sandwich and as we mentioned it was fantastic, definitely one of the best we've ever had, but we loved the empanadas. The empanadas were clearly homemade, much larger than we're used to and perfectly seasoned and prepared. For those of you that need something a little more North American, we checked out the steak sandwich, which also exceeded our expectations. The fries were quite tasty.
