"Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar is one of Old City’s most indisputable culinary gems. Reliable, festive, and flavorful – it gets the job done for any diner looking for a night out without much fuss. In maintaining this stellar reputation, they’ve released a new “Taste of Havana” chef’s tasting menu that features some of their most beloved Cuban dishes. For under $50 per diner, I enjoyed everything from their spicy beef empanadas, creamy chicken croquetas, plantain chips with several seasonal salsas, rum-pineapple glazed shrimp skewers, tres leches cake, and so much more. It was the ideal meal for catching up with one of my best friends on a weekday night, and I’m already envisioning other ways to return for a larger dinner party of sorts." - Ernest Owens
