So, our experience with this place was pretty unfortunate. We walked in and the receptionist was very attentive and quick to seat us but we were then left at our table with no water and no acknowledgement of our presence for over 20 minutes, even though there seemed to be plenty of servers that wouldn't make eye contact. We flagged someone down (turned out to be a bus boy) who brought us water and then nothing for a long time. We flagged him down again and said we would like to order. He went off and found someone 5 minutes later. I don't know what the deal was but our food came out super fast. Maybe they realized they did wrong by us. Regardless, the food was disappointing, our menus were left on the table for the duration of the meal and they clearly need to work on better service to their customers. Would definitely not go out of my way to return there.

The drinks were great! Banana Fizz and Rum Runner we're strong but flavorful. Our service was great too! The only issue was the flavor of the rest of the dishes from our group of 9 were not very good. My husband ordered a steak dish and it was not good at all. We love Cuban, but this seemed like fast food Cuban with a beautiful setting. For the price, we expected a better dinner. We will not be returning.

We stumbled upon this cute restaurant looking for a spot at the bar to have a cocktail and take a break after full day of walking. Since I’m not a Rum drinker I decided to try it out. Luckily bartender David was super knowledgeable and we absolutely fell in love with Rum and will be sipping it more often now. Had some tapas and they were delicious too. Five stars drinks, food and service! ❤️

Amazing authentic Cuban food. Excellent customer service. The regular Mojito's are phenomenal!! The seafood paella was outstanding as well. The decor in the place makes you feel like you are in Havana. Probably the best Cuban I've had in the Washington Metro area. I will definitely be back!!!

I love the atmosphere here. It has a vibrant and friendly air. Just had the octopus tapas dish, it was divine. I recommend this for a fun night out and some good food and sweet cocktails. Make a reservation on OpenTable for a guaranteed seat.
