Better Cuban food than Versailles, however, can be found at Havana on Sunset. Some friends of mine took this place over a couple of years ago and the food is amazing. It is located at Sunset and Van Ness. Versailles is good -- I've never had a bad meal there and their garlic chicken is amazing...I just prefer Havana on Sunset. You can't go wrong at either place, actually.

If you want pizza, go to Casa Bianca in Eagle Rock on Colorado Blvd. Plan to arrive when they open or you will wait at least an hour. The wait isn't bad, though... You sit outside with some nice people and you can have a glass of wine or a beer.
