Emilia’s Havana - Review - Uptown - Houston - The Infatuation
"The entrance to Emilia’s Havana is behind a speed rack filled with Cafe Bustelo in the kitchen of The Annie, but being personally escorted through the threshold takes away the mystery. Modeled after a Cuban cafe, the Uptown speakeasy always has a live band and focuses on rum-based cocktails. And while there's a $50 entertainment fee and a $100 minimum spend, the silky Celia Cruz covers and mini duck cubanos are worth their weight in gold, so the triple-digit price tag feels reasonable. Come to Emilia's Havana when you want to salsa dance with someone you kiss with regularity, or when you desperately need access to an unlimited rum fountain." - Gianni Greene
