El Atelier
An art-filled restaurant housed in a renovated pre-revolutionary mansion in Vedado, featuring a romantically lit terrace and signature duck confit.
Located at 511 Calle 5ta in the Vedado district, this restaurant is housed in a beautifully renovated pre-revolutionary mansion. The interior displays art for sale, and the terrace is adorned with small lights, located about two blocks from the Malecón. AlaMesa lists the duck confit as the signature dish, while reviews also mention lobster and rabbit in mustard sauce. The menu changes frequently and has recently been scaled back due to supply shortages, with prices listed in USD. Advance reservations are recommended. The average spend is about $30–50 USD. Some reviews mention that the restaurant reopened after a temporary closure, so it is best to confirm before going.
