I adore this place. It's my neighborhood (where I live with my family, this is not exactly next to Chez Raquel). The simplicity and humility of its waiters, bartenders and owners is impressive and unique. A beautiful place with no pretensions. Most of them are professionals who preferred to leave their jobs and join this enterprising personal project of their friends (the owners). The owner is a biologist and the owner is a plastic artist.

Wonderful place to take delicious cocktails and enjoy live music. When the concerts finish, they have DJ/music and people dance until very "early in the morning". Some people call it "the Hard Rock Cafe of Havana". ***Do not miss the jam session on Monday, hosted by the magestic Oliver Valdes. http://www.olivervaldes.com/olivervaldes/INICIO.html
