Bia's Café Marianao runs two locations on West Addison Street in Irving Park, serving pressed Cuban sandwiches out of a counter-service format. The menu is compact: a steak sandwich, a classic Cuban, guava BBQ chicken, plus empanadas and pastelitos.
The steak sandwich draws consistent praise from regulars, along with the kitchen's ingredient quality and portion sizes. Service runs friendly and attentive even during busy stretches, and the shop has built a following of repeat customers across both locations.
