El Cochinito

Cuban Staple in LA est. 1988 🇨🇺
RSVP, Catering, Delivery, & Pickup Available. Closed Mondays 🐷 El Cochinito is a true gem with sincere service and genuine food.

El Cochinito is nestled in Silverlake and is rich in Cuban tradition. The restaurant draws many old Cubans and locals from the neighborhood. Along with satisfying homesick Floridians, El Cochinito caters to the restaurant industry as well. The forty-two-seat restaurant is inspired by family and the atmosphere is evidence of that. The walls are decorated with photos of Cuba and pictures of the family.

ROPA VIEJA! 💗

Shredded flank steak | bell peppers | onions | garlic stewed in a rich tomato sauce served with white rice and black beans.

Spanish explorers and settlers brought Ropa Vieja to the Americas during the colonial period. It gained popularity in Cuba and other Latin American countries. Over time, each region added its unique touch, creating the Ropa Vieja we love today! This flavorful dish now symbolizes the cultural diversity and shared history of the Caribbean and Latin America.

Stop by tonight and try the dish capturing hearts for centuries. We’ll be open from 5-10!

Buen provecho!

Mariquitas is the Cuban name for plantain chips. They are made from green plantains and are sliced into thin circles resembling the lady bug! In Spanish, Mariquita translates to lady bug 🐞
