    Stopped in for a drink and to escape the June heat. My cocktail was amazing. It was dead when we visited but I imagine it's a cool place to hang out in the evenings. Had a really cool vibe.

    Delicious food and amazing drinks. Their location in Habana Vieja is great for an afternoon walk after lunch. I particularly enjoyed their tapas.

    Had late lunch here on April 11 and wasn't disappointed. From the artwork outside to the interior design this place is very well done. Music is great and the drinks are very unique and refreshing. The service was excellent and the meals we has were simple but really well presented very good quality. They aren't in the busiest part of old Havana but they are just north of a nice cathedral and the artisans market.

    Beautifully presented Cuban food and amazing mocktails. The best lunch I had in Havana. Stuffed plantain to start. Chicken rice, beans and plantain as a main course and an incredible creme caramel for dessert. All delicious.

    All the dishes were delicious, but I especially enjoyed the frituras de Malanga con miel and yucca frita con mojo. The drinks were really wonderful too. The location is convenient in Old Havana, very close to all the action but in the real Cuba, not the cosmetic, tourists and crowded one.T Overall the food is excellent and the spirit convival. Staff could not be more friendly. Looking forward visiting them for the 3th time, Do not miss the mocktails!!

    super cool place in the old Havana!! In this place you will find a nice mix between cuban and italian style, as the owner has lived in Italy for many years. Food/drink quality is at its top, and personnel is nice and qualified.

    As a swiss girl living in Havana for years, I was dying to eat good pastas and I finally found in this restaurant a chief that know how to cook al dente pasta for a correct price (5 cuc)! My husband had a carnero al vino and it was pretty good. As a Cuban he needed more rice and the attendant have him another plate of rice for free. Very nice! The only thing is that the food was too salty. We told the attendant and hope the chief will take this in count because it's certainly not the last time I'll go to eat pasta there! They also have a large menu of cocktails and juices which are quite big and tasty!

    What an amazing dinner here. The best Ropa Vieja! Amazing salad, the sangria is superb. Great service, ambiance. Memorable dining in Havana.

  • 4/5 Y B. 9 months ago on Google
    Very good restaurant in Havana with traditional and international dishes. Great drinks and reasonably priced. I do wish they had a working air conditioner on the really hot Havana days. Otherwise very pleased with this place.

  • 5/5 Ryosuke K. 9 months ago on Google
    I highly recommend to take cocktail making class! (They taught King Charles and Camilla how to make cocktails when they visited Cuba!) It was really fun and great to know the behind stories of Cuban cocktails. Also, their tapas are really good!

    Short walk from all the main plazas. Excellent food with great drinks. Definitely the most friendly and skilled staff in the area. The atmosphere and design of the place are perfect. You can tell this place was built with a lot of love and detail.

    Small restaurant with tiny dishes but very tasty :) I had a fish dish and no problems after eating that. My friend had a dish with meat and it was good but if you are really hungry you should consider eating two dishes :) Very nice service

    You simply can’t go wrong with this place

  • 5/5 Shida 1 year ago on Google
    OMG! This place is a GEM in La Habana. The food was just SIMPLEMENTE MUY RICO! The spaghetti was like none I've ever had with it's uniquely flavored red sauce, the fish was well cooked with the flavor seeping in with every bite I took. The drinks were good but they snuck up on me because I requested extra shots. The waitstaff was nice and attentive. I will definitely come back for more.

  • 5/5 Ricardo A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere! Loved the food and the value was amazing! I would recommend the mango daiquiri! Also, super friendly staff! One of the best in Habana Vieja!

  • 5/5 Pamela R. 4 years ago on Google
    This really was a hidden gem. Even though it was on our list of places to go we walked past it the first time. However I'm glad we turned around and found it. We were only going to have a drink at first but in the end decided to have tapas also. I ordered a mula jibaro which I had read about in other reviews. One of my favourite cocktails so far in Cuba. We ordered chicken croquettes, ceviche and arancini. They were all delicious and the ceviche actually better than where we had been the night before that was supposed to be one of the best. Camilla and her staff were all really friendly. We only wish we had another few days to sample some other dishes here. We will be back the next time we are in Havana.

  • 5/5 Coordinate C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Exceptional, after months without going to any restaurant today "we put on Jibaro's" and the choice could not be better. The excellent treatment, hygiene and protection measures at all times and exceptional food. We fell in love with all the dishes, but without a doubt the award went to the rustic apple and banana treat. My congratulations, keep it up. (Original) Excepcional, luego de meses sin salir a ningún restaurante hoy " nos pusimos Jibaro's" y la elección no pudo ser mejor. El trato excelente, la higiene y medidas de protección en todo momento y la comida excepcional. Quedamos enamorados de todos los platos, pero sin duda el premio a lo llevó la trata rústica de manzana y plátano. Mis felicitaciones, sigan así.

    Great cocktails and friendly service give this place 5 star potential; Unpredictable and irregular opening days/hours drop the stars down to 3...not a good way to run a business - especially a bar/restaurant.

  • 5/5 DAN G. 4 years ago on Google
    Wow, what a hidden gem off the touristy path. Very clean and stylist. Lunch special for only $10 and it was phenomenal. Food is gourmet as well as the drinks. Unbelievable!

  • 5/5 Louise L. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a fantastic time here last night. The food was delicious, I recommend the hummus 😝 They catered for two of us being vegetarian with a tasty dish of vegetables in soy sauce. Yummy! The staff were amazing, especially our waiter who was friendly and helpful. Great vibe and good value for money 👍🏻

    (Translated by Google) Elaborate food that combines research of traditional Cuban ingredients presented in an interesting way. Best cocktails in Cuba. (Original) Cibo elaborato che unisce ricerca degli ingredienti tradizionali cubani presentati in maniera interessante. Migliori cocktail di Cuba .

    (Translated by Google) The food was not the richest and my ravioli were salty (Original) La comida no era la más Rica y mis ravioles estaban salados

  • 5/5 Anna M. 5 years ago on Google
    EXCELLENT - one of the best places we ate in Cuba. Try the pancakes with fruit salad (mango) on the side or the aranchini especially. The american breakfat also had cracking bacon. Tip top marks to David and Lily for excellent service as well - "our men in Havana", as Graham Greene would say!

    Best meal we had in Havana, and we had many. Delicious food, great cocktails, friendly service!

👍 Very tiny place at the south end of old town. It is nice inside and we were hoping to dine here. However for some reason prices are much higher than in comparable places in town. We chose a different place, maybe we will be back if the prices even out.

👍👍 So we went on a cruise to Cuba for my bachelor party and it was a group of 9 and the experience at Draquecitos was amazing.
