Wherever you go, though, there’s something worth looking at: whether a beautifully preserved church or a bucket-and-pulley system for exchanging items between upper and lower floors. Some blocks look straight out of a photoshoot, others like a half-completed construction site.

The contrast between spaces dominated by Cubans, and those reserved for visitors, is particularly noticeable here, where everything is so close together. As both the oldest and the most walkable part of the city, it’s also a popular place to stay for many visitors. (Never forget that pirates are real.) Though the walls were knocked down in 1863 to make way for the city’s expansion, the difference between more modern neighborhoods like Vedado-full of broad, shaded avenues and stately mansions on roomy plots-and Old Havana is striking. The ancient heart of the Caribbean’s largest city, Old Havana’s (or Habana Vieja’s) original street plan was squeezed on one side by its harbor and on the other by heavily fortified walls. We loved it and the owner is so sweet and really showed us she cared about us doing our celebration at.Old Havana’s streets are narrower than a broad alleyway and almost as old as Columbus. My first time ever having Crème brûlée!! Then Finishing it off with a Cafe con leche. The sautéed onions on the steak was so good! We really enjoyed this place and were so happy to know this is where we will have our wedding ceremony dinner. I ordered the Mar y tierra (Steak & Shrimp) dish with mixed rice and maduros. She ordered a steak salad which was cooked perfectly. We started with the guacamole with fried plantain strips. we started with a delicious strawberry water and mojito that we mixed with our byob vodka.

The service was so friendly and the restaurant is so intimate, Me and my fiancé felt so at home. This place was great! The food was delicious.

Flag as inappropriate So me and my fiancé reserved this restaurant for a wedding party and wanted to check it out before we actually reserved.
