Cuban
Cuba is located in a historic street in the Greenwich Village reminiscence of any street in Old Havana. It exudes the aroma and flavor of an authentic Cuban restaurant. The romantic milieu of Cuba effortlessly transports you from Manhattan to Cuba. The rhythmic palpitations of salsa, son Cubano, and the extraordinary sense of exotic dishes permeate the air. For years, Cuba Restaurant has been capturing the spirit of Old Havana with authentic
cuisine, strong signature mojitos, and the team behind Cuba, including Executive Chef Mario Garcia. As a result, Cuba restaurant is like a family, their loyalty and satisfaction directly translating to the guest experience, creating
an atmosphere of fun, friendliness and all-around Cuban hospitality that is unparalleled. Americans have fallen in love with Latin food, music, and culture. Cuba has them all under one roof, offering a singular and charming escape to its own Little Havana on Thompson Street.

    Food and drinks are always perfect. The server had a great sense of humor, made amazing entree suggestions for us, and he even humored me when I asked about how their caipirinhas were made. We were the last people in the restaurant that night but never felt rushed or pressured to hurry. Always a recommendation i make to family and friends.

    We were a party of 9. Everything was excellent. Our waiter was very good. He was so much fun. We all enjoyed his humor and service. I wish I knew his name to thank him. The timing of entrees and dinner perfect. We started with an array of appetizers. All were amazing. Shout outs for the empanadas, croquettes and calamari. Entrees we really enjoyed include steak and oxtail. The deserts were equally excellent. That banana bread pudding,,.. YUM!!!!! We will definitely return. Highly recommend.

    The food was very good, but the women's bathroom was disgusting. None of the toilets were flushable which downgraded the experience. The live music, food and waiters were great.

    Cuban sandwich good - would have preferred plaintain chips instead of taro chips. Shrimp wrap tasted odd to my son but fine with my wife. My other son liked their arroz con pollo. Fried yucca was OK. Tables and seats are too close to each other.

    Only critique is there is only one bathroom, but that is common. Can't speak highly enough though of the service, the ambience, and especially the food. Cuba is one of my go-to restaurants in the area, especially for a group meal.

    Cuba has been my fav rest in nyc for years! I bring many guest and I’m always recommending. Every time my family visits they ask to go so last night my mom & dad went on a date and we’re extremely disappointed with the overall service. With reservation, they were told that they’d only have 1 hour to eat (this has never happened before). The music wasn’t as vibrant as it usually is. My mom got the grilled octopus which was impossible to cut and my dad got the seafood casserole which was flavorless. They were extremely disappointed with the service and I was sad to hear this since it’s one of my go-to’s

    Seated in smaller windowless back room which felt tight and was away from the live music but food and especially service more than made up for not being "where the action is." Service was excellent and very attentive.

    Six of us had a business dinner /celebration at Cuba. First time for all of us. It was great. Service, drinks, food, atmosphere and lucky for us the live music which they apparently have on Thursday's from 7-9. Our only complaint was no room to dance. :-) Really a terrific evening. Every drink was excellent, all appetizers which we shared were perfect and everyone loved their entree's and deserts. That Cuba happens to be in such a great location doesn't hurt either. Give it a try, even if it's not a Thursday. You'll love it.

    Good value for the price, food was okay but generally flavorless and seemed thrown together. Seems like a good place for groups drinking but the food and furnishings could use an update.
