A Caribbean and Latin American-inspired restaurant has opened in the former Riviera Maya spot (which has moved about a block down the street). Sabor Tropical serves dishes from Puerto Rico, Argentina, Mexico and Cuba, among others. Plantains play a big role on the menu in items like tostones rellenos ($8-$10) stuffed with your choice of meat; mofongo rellenos ($15-$24), an entree made of mashed plantains with chicharrónes and topped with shrimp, lobster or fish; and el jibarito ($11), a sandwich with smashed plantains taking the place of bread. Other options include Cuban ropa vieja ($12) with shredded flank steak and olives, pechuga con mole ($12) and gazpacho with shrimp, cucumbers and onion served with chicharrónes ($10). Tropical drinks like mojitos, caipirinhas and piña coladas are the bar’s specialty.
