Well it was my girlfriends bday friday so I decided that cuba would be a nice place because she loves spanish food. What a disapointment! I read some reviews and looked at the pictures on the website,and it seemed to be a really nice place. We had a reservation for 9 people at 9;45. Everyone was there at about 9;30. We werent seated til almost 11;00. Now its not so much the wait,as every where you go in the city on a fri night chances are youll have to wait. With all the chattering and drinks by the time we ordered our food it was 11;15..what they didnt tell us was that they close the kitchen at 12!!!!! On top of all that the food was BLAND....now anyone who knows anything about spanish food...even BAD spanish food isnt bland!!!! The waiter was rushing us out the door at 5 to 12...we couldnt even order dessert or sing happy birthday...I was furious...The only good thing i can say is that they have good mojitos other than that all i can say is Stay the hell away!!...

Pros: Good drinks

Cons: Horrible food and service

Editor's Review

This West Village restaurant was serving mojitos and plantains long before Socialista turned Cuban food into props for supermodels.  See the full editorial review.
