From the outside, The Hush Cuban Café & Oyster Bar in Dillard is fairly unremarkable. But one look at the menu and the gushing online reviews and you know you’re some place special.
The Hush features an all-day breakfast with omelets, pancakes, loaded scrambled eggs tostada and guava & cheese pastelito. For the rest of the day, there are tacos, beef empanada, stuffed cassava fritters, picadillo Cubano a caballo and the best Cuban sandwich in Georgia.
And that’s no overstatement. Check out Yelp or elsewhere to find nothing but glowing reviews for this little gem in northern Rabun County:
- “This place is a must try! I am embarrassed to admit how much we eat here. I have tried most of the menu items and haven’t had a bad bite. Their food is exploding with flavor and always consistent. The menu is well thought out and truly has something for everyone. Some of my favorites – steak tacos, wings, empanadas, the pit pot, the burgers, ribs, and the Cubano. But most of all, I LOVE the tres leches. It is habit inducing. Do yourself a favor. Eat here.”
- “Give this place a try. Trust, you will NOT regret it. Our son had never had Cuban food so he was really skeptical…but we just left, and he is singing their praises! Their pulled pork and crispy chicken confit is so yummy…and their classic Cuban sandwich is great, too! The hand cut fries with Cuban ketchup…the bread pudding…it is all to die for!! And if you like raw oysters…YUM.”
- “All I can say is: Eat here. The staff was friendly, made helpful suggestions, and the food was oh so delicious. I had the brisket tacos and my wife had the #3 plate. The chicken fell right off the bone. Then we had the tres leches which blew our mind. Very family friendly as well.”
- “I’ve visited many Cuban restaurants in the Atlanta area, Puerto Rico, and New York but this place ranks at the very TOP! We both had the Cuban sandwich and added a side order of yellow rice and beans. The food was served hot and fresh! We will be coming back AGAIN!”
- “Go see for yourself! This place is amazing! Wonderful food and the owners are the sweetest people and will go out of their way to make you feel at home! AMAZING and authentic food!!!!”
- “An amazing find! I just can’t say enough about the food; it was absolutely great. Everything we had was loaded with flavor and delicious!”
- “Delicious! Chef is amazing. BBQ was perfectly smoked and tender and full of flavor. Smoked pimento quest with house made chips absolutely delightful! Highly recommend.”
- “Service was excellent and the food was delicious! One of the best Cuban sandwiches we’ve ever had. The avocado salad with pulled pork was phenomenal!!!”
The verdict is in: The Hush is the place for phenomenal food and friendly service.
