Frommer's Review
Enter through an elaborately decorated colonial house, 2 blocks north of the cathedral, into this private restaurant, which has a handful of tables set in an exuberant backyard garden setting, with tons of flowering plants, including red estrella de navidad, and a wall festooned with vines. Portions are nearly as voluminous as the flora, and light eaters can share one dish between two. Offerings include roast pork a la cubana, fried chicken, grilled fish, and ham omelet. However, my favorite is the perfectly spiced ropa vieja made with shredded lamb. All are served with moros y cristianos (black beans and rice), salad, fried banana, crackers, and fruit. The owner also has one room for rent (CUC$20 double).
