Esquina de Cuba

Located in Old Havana, is a small restaurant with Cuban and international food, with a perfect view of Havana's chore and traditional Cuban music, it opens its doors every day of the week. Its simple and warm atmosphere makes the food taste like home!

One block away from La Boeguita del Medio, and flight up, we stumbled upon this place when we ran into a waiter on the street. We sat outdoors on the terrace and were able to relax. The service was impeccable, with excellent recommendations. One of my favorite mojitos in cuba, it can with a fresh sugar cane. We had a seafood tower that was recommended by our waiter, which was unique and delicious. The place is clean and the staff is friendly - we met guillermo, oscar, yuri, leo and julin. We would definitely return.Thank you for visiting us!It is very good to know that you enjoyed the stay, the service, the food and the cocktails.Is there anything we could improve, according to your experience? We would like to know! The opinion of our clients is very important.Thank you for leaving us your recommendation.Have a nice day!

Restaurante Antojos

Reviewed By StevefromFrome

We found this on our last night, otherwise we would have gone back! We had looked at a restaurant further along the street but came back to this one. It is pretty new but deserves to do really well. Very friendly greeting from the waiter in the street, we sat on a table outside under the massive red parasol - luck as it was raining on and off. The whole experience, service, food, drinks, everything was so enjoyable. If you are in this area, looking to eat - just go here - forget the rest! At the time of writing, they have had 75 5* reviews on TA so we cant all be wrong can we!!

5 Sentidos

Reviewed By philw828

Having down a bit of quick research 5 Sentidos was not highly rated on Trip Adviser but was very close to where we stayed. The service throughout was absolutely outstanding. The restaurant inside was very clean, tidy and trendy. Had a great menu with some great entrees. In hind sight we should have shared a larger number of entrees and not had mains. In saying that everything was beautifully cooked and tasted incredible. Great drink menu too. Very pleasing dinner date.

We turned the house where we were born into a beautiful restaurant, were you can enjoy our delicious food elaborated by our chef, plus a gorgeous view of the sea.

Reviewed By Janet N

Stayed in the neighborhood for 4 days and ate here three times. Fresh, good quality natural ingredients and very tasty. The chef really cares about the food he makes and your opinion matters to him. Clean, bright room overlooking the sea.

Lo de Monik

Reviewed By UKGlobalTraveller

This place is so great .. food is excellent .. tasty hot fresh ingredients .. I opted for the hamburger because I needed something non Cuban for a change .. tasted amazing.. came with green banana chips .. washed down with a lemonade to start and then an almighty rocket powered mojito.The staff here are really friendly .. service is excellent .. quick service .. and they even have a way for you to connect to the internet .. costs 1 cuc but it works brilliantly. Leave the hot steamy streets for a while and park yourselves here for a breakfast lunch or dinner (or all three!) and cool off in the air conditioning.A real find .. leaving Havana tomorrow but definitely coming back and definitely coming back here ! Fantastic .. loved it !

Lo mejor de la comida fusión española, cubana y mexicana. En nuestro local podrá disfrutar de platos sencillos y orgánicos , elaborados diariamente con cocina de mercado. Haciendo lo mejor con los productos de estacion.

Reviewed By Janice F

A small but cosy restaurant with great service and the tastiest food in Havana Vieja.The menu was not extensive but what was served was delicious and very reasonably priced. I stayed in a Casa close by so it was really convenient for me to go there for most of my meals :)I'm so happy I found this place as I tried many other cafes/restaurants and wasn't impressed with the food elsewhere
