Empedrado #207 e/ San Ignacio y Cuba, Habana Vieja

Open noon-midnight daily
Cuba Absolutely Review: January 2011
Despite the international renown of La Bodeguita del Medio, the actual food is generally a bit of a letdown. The place is worth stopping by for a mojito in the attached bar (although bear in mind you will be cheek-to-jowl with camera-touting tourists). The restaurant however still retains a certain ambience although the best tables are reserved for people who are unlikely to show up (sic Sammy Davis Junior).
