"Cool, bright, and refreshing, Margon's octopus salad is on the menu every day. It's $5.95 all by itself -- a side dish big enough for two or three people -- or $8.95 as an entree with yellow rice and beans or salad and fried bananas."

"The man at the left is placing an order. The dining strip is to the right. Not shown, behind the camera on the left: four stools suitable only for people without legs."
Michael Stern
"A side view of Margon's Cuban sandwich shows the multiple layers of meat, cheese, pickles, and condiments squeezed into the crisp tube of bread."
Michael Stern
"Margon makes tropical fruit shakes to order. This pink, supersweet one is mamey. Also on the menu are guanabana, mango, banana, papaya, trigo, and tamarindo. (What the heck is trigo?)"
Michael Stern
"Margon actually looks larger from the outside. Inside, it is sardine-can tight."
Michael Stern
"Here is a pork chop so tender that it was easily severed into bite-size pieces with gentle pressure from the edge of a flimsy plastic fork."
Michael Stern
"Classic Cuban side dishes, missing only some inky black beans, too: plantains and yellow rice."
Michael Stern
"Can you see the flavor fairly radiating from the sliced pork in this sandwich? It is utterly delicious, although maybe next time, we'd add a little cheese, too..."
