Lonely Planet review for Restaurante Esquina Cuba
Notable for the 1950s-era soft-top that sits regally in the middle of the dining room, this place was one-time favorite of Buena Vista Social Club luminary, Compay Segundo. The man obviously had taste. With lashings of beans, rice, plantain chips and chicken, the food here has the aura of Havana’s famous El Aljibe. Great Cuban ephemera line the walls, including black-and-white photos of Varadero back in its Mafia hangout heyday.
