A Cuban restaurant with a dual personality, David's is sibling to the Collins Avenue sandwich and coffee shop. Likewise, this location serves terrific medianoche sandwiches, croquetas, coladas (shots of Cuban espresso) and cortadito (café Cubano with milk), available either in the sit-down diner or via the popular take-out window. (There's usually a festive crowd of tourists, locals and business people sneaking a break at the always-open latter.) David's has a more formal side, however, evidenced by white linen-covered tables and polished (if brusque) service in the sedate dining room. Here you can indulge in vaca frita (fried steak) or arroz con pollo that's made to order, if you've got the time, or take part in the lunchtime buffet that typically includes such favorites as ropa vieja (stewed meat), plantains and rice and beans.
