Habana Café

The high cover charge at this slick Vedado music-bar-restaurant sadly excludes most Cubans. It’s got an intentional retro-chic look to it, furnished with three classic American cars – a shiny yellow Chevy, a Pontiac and a Buick, as well Hemingway pictures and much pre-Revolutionary memorabilia. Apart from pricey yet powerful mojitos, you come here for rockin’ salsa and son from top live acts such as Azur Negra and Los Van Van. So some Cubans in here after all.
