“I want to thank Javier and the staff at the Cuba Libre restaurant in Washington D.C.  I have some serious food allergies that make eating out something of a trial for me.  When I came into the restaurant and explained my difficulties the hostess immediately got Javier.  I explained my allergies and he went to consult with the chef.  He then advised me on the menu items that could be prepared without using any of the ingredients that are allergens for me.  The meal when it came was delicious and there were no ill effects.  I will be sure to recommend the Cuba Libre to my friends and relatives living in the D.C. area and I will be back!”
