The next stop on our terminal of Rockville Centre destinations is a bit more on the exotic side. on 3-A Park Ave. is a family-friendly sitdown eatery by day, and one of RVC's most popular hot spots by night.
Offering bar-friendly Mexican cuisine, Cabo serves up tradtional favorites like quesadillas, burritos, chimichangas and enchiladas. The homemade salsa that comes with the chips (the Mexican bread and butter) is particularly tasty.
The fun part is picking out which Margarita to try. The list is extensive, offering the original Margarita, frozen or on the rocks (in three different sizes), to colorful concoctions like the Cabo Blue Margarita or the Raspberry Passion Fruit. I went with the Island Breeze — a fruitful blend of mango and melon. Take heed, however, one of these cocktails goes for $11!
