La Redacción
Restaurant Bar La Redacción
A creative restaurant in an old colonial house that once housed a newspaper, serving updated Cuban dishes with international flavors, with plenty of vegetarian options and a calm setting for a quiet dinner.
Located at 463 Máximo Gómez Street (formerly Gutiérrez Street), a colonial-era house. The name 'La Redacción' ('The Newsroom') comes from the building's past as a newspaper office. The cooking is updated Cuban food with international fusion flavors. Chocolate curry chicken, lamb curry, fried yuca and pulled pork on Caribbean bread are all recommended, and vegan rice and other vegetarian options are rare in Cuba. The brownies and fresh lemonade also have good reputations. The setting is quiet and refined, and local guides list it as mid-range and suited to a date-night dinner. Older reviews put main courses at about US$10–15, and paying in US dollars or euros earns a discount.
