Identity / Potentials
The "Cuban Restaurant in a Neoclassical Building", part of the Venue "Habanera" is an aesthetic and culinary culmination of elements that prevail in the cultures of the tropical islands of the Caribbean as well as the charming countries of Latin America. The Space is permeated by an eclectic collection of art and artifacts that act as reference points for the overall ambiance of the Space and are intended to surround your event with the exoticism, flair, romance and dynamism of Latin American culture. Our cuisine and cocktails are inspired by these cultures perfecting this "journey" of flavors and sensations that we offer as an experience.
Design and Practicality
The aesthetics of the Space are characterized by an eclectic approach where Cuban baroque, neoclassical style, ethnic and art deco are artistically mixed. The grandeur and symmetry that derives from neoclassical architecture with its purity of form, strong horizontal and vertical lines meets the idealization of beauty and happiness proclaimed through expressive paintings that extol fun and joy while the protagonist is the music. The ethnic touch is manifested through the robust totems which remind the deep historical roots that these cultures carry. The wooden floor, the characteristic neoclassical style railings, the decorative details on the walls in the form of collage, the art deco lamps, the delicate pastels that remind of spring and elevate the mood, and the many and large windows that keep the environment clean and sunlit are some of the elements that reveal the study and care we have put into creating a Space that will amaze all of your guests.

We are sure that your guests will appreciate the timeless value of our Venue that we have been operating for a number of consecutive years (since 1996) and which combines neoclassical architecture in Cuban shades with exotic decorative touches that transfer you mentally to the old - traditional - city of Habana. In harmony with the aesthetics of the Space, the sound rhythms that will frame your event are selected Latin music from a repertoire of salsa, chacha and reggae genres. The 3d tour includes an indicative sample of the sounds that will "dress up" your event.
🍽️ We serve ethnic food with original recipes and flavors of Latin America (mainly Mexican and Caribbean cuisine). We are famous for our quality-quantity-price ratio. If you haven't already enjoyed our dishes then we must note that they closely resemble Latin American tastes (we often travel to these countries - to test our claim ourselves) while the quantities are generous, aiming to satisfy all of your guests' appetites. To meet our taste standards (originality) be aware that some of our dishes are slightly spicy, at a tolerable level so to respect individual preferences. The intensity can always be adjusted by adding up tabasco.
Among the common dish choices of our guests are Chicken and Beef Fajitas, Natsos Vegetarian, Ensalada de Pollo, Minced Burritos, Country Fries, Tacos al pastor, Quesadillas Con Poyo.
In case you are unsure about the serving menu for your guest, our staff is available to assist you with personalized taste suggestions (we also have menu options for vegans).
