I had a 3 course meal: appetizer, main meal,  dessert. Everyone one of them was very well presented, and very tasty. The drinks were amazing, the service was great. The music made it that much better. The only downside they sat us next to the entrance on a very cold night. Aside from the seating i honestly loved this place highly recommended.

The decorations were captivating and reminded me of a movie set. We were seated soon after arriving and our order was quickly taken. The staff was not only quick but especially helpful and kind. They had amazing appetizers and food. A member of my party went to Cuba and said that it was very authentic and we all agreed it was delicious and plated well.

Came here while on a business trip after a couple of my staff members found it and said it was the real deal. Ended up eating here 3 times while we were in town. The Shrimp con Mojo is absolutely out of this world. I didn't know flavors like that even existed. The Seafood Paella is also pretty delicious. Make sure you add a small bowl of their Black Bean Soup to your order. It's not your Mama's black beans. Great food, great atmosphere. Can't wait to be back in DC again to go again.

Cuban food at it's best! Prompt seating and accurate orders. Service is excellent. Highly recommend you eat there and bring your friends. Nice atmosphere

A fun night out!
The best part of Cuba Libre is that it is a chill after hours night spot. Relaxed dress code. Affordable drinks. A pretty large dance floor. And a chill crowd that is focused on having fun. If you are a salsa fan, or a fan of dancing, this is one of the better spots in DC.

As a bar/restaurant, Cuba Libre is not quite stellar. The drinks are good but pricey (prices drop when the party starts at 11), the food is good but not great and the bar staff is surly.
