Thank you very much dear Chef for the exquisite cuisine we were served.
Dear Manager:
Your toilets, all three of them, were clogged.
We left without having our food.
Management sucks
Great terrace in an interesting part of town away from the cruise ship tourists. Cuban food with a twist! Great cocktails too !
Very good food, drinks and services. Awesome place and decoration. Must visit. However, it is expensive. The meat and fishes do not come with garnishes. The chorizo is not like Argentina, it is not a beef. It is like a salsiche. Find the menu in the photos.
We tried both the restaurant at the first floor and the one at the top terrace.
First floor restaurant: small servings, the service is constantly rushing you to finish so someone else can take the table and the food is good but nothing special and incredibly expensive! I wouldn’t recommend going there
Restaurant at the top floor: great! Food is really good and tasty, well priced and the service helpful and friendly! We went to have a few drinks at the top level first while watching the sunset. If you are planning on going there and to FAC later, make sure you book the restaurant at the top level!
Wonderful service and super polite to guess out of town. Reservation is greatly suggested however we went on a Monday night at 7pm and it's not a problem. On weekends, they might have private events.
I had their duck confit and i can say it's about the best standard of food you can find in the area or 99% of Havana. Their price is around a mid range NYC restaurant. We had their fish of the day and it's as fresh and as delicious you can get it.
You should ask the waiters opinion on your order. The setting is very romantic however dressing up isn't required. I was here in sneaker from a day of Havana tour.
Still one of the finer restaurants in Havana. The rooftop is a younger crowd, you can peek at the Fabrica de Arte Cubano next door tru their windows. Lively, fun and good food & cocktails. You must call ahead. It's good for groups.
Enjoy great cocktails and relaxed atmosphere up on the rooftop bar. Try the dense and moist chocolate cake! Service was quick and staff was friendly. The food was extraordinary, out of this world! We were surprised at how much you got for the money you spent there, prices were very reasonable for the great service! You van also enjoy a night out at the club or visit an exhibition, all under the same roof! Decoration was wonderful und distinctive! You will miss out something huge if you don’t give this place a shot!
Absolutely a great place to have dinner or drinks. You should reserve a table upstairs on the terrace. The food is decent, actually very good for Cuban standard and it’s relatively cheap. The most expensive dish we had was 12 I think.
Great private restaurant, with a nice decor, menu and service.
Cozy trendy place to take a relaxed break from the busy Havana street life. Surprisingly good food with nice drinks and very friendly staff! Definitely worth stopping here, for example after seeing the Necrópolis Cristóbal Colón.
This is perfect spot to grab food/drinks prior to going to the Art Factory next door. Grab dinner around 7ish and be at the factory by 9 to skip the lines. I walked in no problem without reservation, but it was before it got too busy.
Paying for ambiance and location, food is better at other restaurants but by far this is the nicest and cool place to be at.
We had a really pleasant evening and enjoyed the view, the food and drinks were very tasty. Unfortunately our waitress told us the wrong price for our drinks, and also overcharged us for drinks we didn't have. The staff were unfriendly and unapologetic when we pointed out the mistake. Too bad, it would have been a perfect night but this left an unpleasant taste
Great food, great drinks, and great people (especially the bar tender). The chef is cooking all day high quality food. The whole team is working great in this restaurant. We (my bf and me) had sausage and seafood there, and drank a lot there too: the cocktails were great there, don't forget to order them.
Good atmosphere , nice place to go have dinner with friends . Not impressed with the food
Good food, okay drinks, tough service. We were seated about 20 minutes after our reservation which wasn't the biggest deal because this place was mobbed with tourists but then it also took nearly a half hour to get bread baskets to the table. They really, really, REALLY need more staff here.
The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was lovely, but the menu and surroundings felt very modern American, as if we had completely left Cuba. This may have only been on the second floor - the 3rd floor seemed very cool and fun (as seen in most of the pictures).
I don't know why we were on the second? Anyway, for that, I would recommend going elsewhere if you would like a cultural experience - there are so many other fantastic Cuban places! (However, the mojito and pork entree were 5-star worthy).
Absolutely lovely setting, competent friendly service, and food that ranged from not bad to awful.
Tasty food and good drinks. Around $10 for a main dish. Octopus was quite good, though one of the more expensive dishes at $13. Cool vibes right next to Fabrica des Artes, the art museum and club. They also accept Euros
Fantastic dining experience. Located in an old oil factory, you walk up a spiral staircase to the third floor. All dining is outside (different concept located indoors on 2nd floor). Need reservations. Ropa Vieja
so great, i went there twice. roof top great. downstairs great.
Best Food I had in Havana, best Gazpacho of my life, great upper deck. Easy to find also because of the huge smokestack.
Coming over the hill, El Cocinero's factory stack appears into view somewhat before its namesake below. When the realization hits that this is your destination, the impression sets in that this won't be an ordinary meal. Make reservations ahead and confirm them - try for outdoor seating but none will disappoint.
