Cuba is on it's own, so it's very difficult to rate a restaurant by standards you would use in the rest of the world. Cafe Laurent, which we found by luck and looking up (it's the top floor apartment in a small block of flats. without a sign), has food that ordinarily I would rate as good but nothing special,...

This restaurant was sooo unbelievably good we visited twice in our 5 day visit in Havana. The food, setting and atmosphere were perfect. Haute cuisine, modern, fusion style food on a rooftop terrace with great views of the vedado area (ideally located if you are staying in the hotel nacional as this is 2 blocks away.) Portions are generous and... More

Arriving in Cuba May 25 with sixteen Canadian chefs on our second annual culinary exchange, we could not have chosen a better paladar for our opening dinner! Seated on their elegant penthouse terrace with billowing gossamer curtains and an iconic view of Havana, we were treated to nine amazing courses creatively conceived and deliciously executed by San Sebastien and Buenos...

When the taxi pulled up outside I was initially quite worried about what kind of place we were about to venture into, however once we arrived on the top floor my opinion totally changed! Cafe Laurent is a gorgeous, intimate and modern rooftop restaurant with stunning views... More

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful meal at Cafe Laurent. Indeed, this was probably the best dinner we had in our 6 days in Havana. Service was attentive. Menu has a good selection. Wines were excellent (which is hard to find in Havana). Great view from the rooftop.

SPECTACULAR! this restaurant is the best restaurant ever! one of my friends recommend it to me and ever since the first time I went I fell in love with the food, I really recommend it!

Lovely evening on the patio in this super clean and modern restaurant. After many days of the same bland food, this was a true find. We all had different appetizers and main courses and all were great. The lobster appetizer and the lobster main course were simple, delicious and plentiful. The lamb dish was really superb and flavorful. Our two... More
