The Best Eats on Havana Street (According to Someone Who’s Trying Every Restaurant)
With some of the best pho, dim sum, and tacos in the city, Federal Boulevard long ago earned its reputation as a top dining destination. But lately, Havana Street in Aurora has been getting attention for its own variety of global cuisine. So, is Havana the new Federal? We posed this question to Westword food writer Antony Bruno, who’s been eating his way up Aurora’s boulevard of strip malls, box stores, and used car lots, finding delicious surprises along the way. From a tucked away taqueria to a local Korean BBQ chain, Bruno shares what he’s learned about Aurora and some of his favorites with host Bree Davies.
Antony talked about Taqueria Corona, Snowl, Dae Gee Korean BBQ, Tofu Story, Yemen Grill, Coco Loco, and Katsu Ramen. Bree mentioned the Havana Night Market’s final event of the year this Saturday from 6 to 10 p.m. at Leezakaya.
