Ballet and Opera Performance

Tickets to Havana’s world-class ballet performances. Excellent quality ballet, opera and cultural music performances take place regularly throughout the year in the main theatres in Havana.

Pre-booked private restaurants

Formerly known as ‘paladars’, Cuba’s privately owned restaurants, are highly recommended and undoubtedly offer the best food. These sought after eateries range from hip to elegant, offer varying cuisines, creative menus, have passionate owners, and are great for foodies. If you’re not in the know, eating out at mediocre restaurants in Cuba is easy to do. They get booked up well in advance, so we recommend our restaurant pre-booking service before travel. Talk to our team for reservations at our favourite recommendations.

Bistro Bar Atlantida, Varadero

Located in the small town of Santa Marta that acts as a satellite local neighbourhood to the main resort, the Bar Atlantida is an unpretentious café-bar and restaurant where diners can enjoy eating on a terrace or inside the small restaurant.

Vista Gourmet, Trinidad

If you are looking for a restaurant with beautiful views, then this is your place, it’s all about the amazing views from the two al fresco terraces. Run by sommelier Bolo, the restaurant offers an extensive wine list, a rare find in Cuba along with a good choice of seafood, a range of meat dishes and some vegetarian and vegan options.

5 Sentidos, Havana

Well located in Old Havana, this contemporary and very popular restaurant is perched on the corner of Compostela and San Juan de Dios. There is an extensive menu, with lots of delicious choices including ceviche, meat, and fish dishes as well as vegetarian choices.

OReilly 304, Havana

If you are yearning to try Havana’s best cocktail, then this place is a contender. The signature mango, strawberry, and watermelon daquiris here are amazing, and we challenge you to find a better one elsewhere in the world. The food is excellent, we recommend the tacos, although you will be torn as everything is extremely fresh and tasty and looks good.

Cafe Laurent

Cafe Laurent, Havana

Located close to the Nacional de Cuba in an elegant downtown penthouse with extensive views of the city, Café Laurent opened in 2011 offering fusion cuisine specialising in fish and seafood with their own unique twist.

Beirut Shawarma, Havana

Situated in the swish Vedado neighbourhood, this traditional Lebanese restaurant was the first Arabic eatery in Havana. With large hearty portions and sumptuous shawarmas, it’s a popular choice. Offering meat, fish salads, and an array of sharing dishes.
