"Modeled after a Cuban cafe, the Uptown speakeasy Emilia’s Havana always has a live band and serves potent rum-based cocktails. And while there's a $50 entertainment fee and a $100 minimum spend, the Celia Cruz songs and mini duck cubanos are worth their weight in gold, so the triple-digit price tag feels reasonable. Emilia's Havana is for when you want to salsa dance with someone you kiss regularly, or when you want unlimited access to a rum fountain." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
