Cubata

Cuban | Little Havana
If you have yet to experience the sensual delicacy that is Cubata, allow us to put you on. The Spanish-Cuban tapas restaurant has stolen the hearts of many with their scrumptious bites and off-the-chain happy hour. While strolling through Little Havana’s boisterous Calle Ocho, snatch a seat outside at one of the colorfully tiled tables for some quintessential people-watching. Or, get ready to dance the night away while catching glimpses of the sorcerous mixologists craft special sips for your soul. Did we mention there’s live music on most nights? 

On the menu, you’ll find the Spanish vino bar classics: cured meats like Jamon Serrano, rich cheeses like Manchego, and all the tapas your inner wanderer desires. Think crispy fried croquetas, cod-stufffed piquillo peppers, and the most tender pulpo a la gallega. Those looking for a heartier bite will find satisfaction in the sandwich options — the “A Lo Cubata” Cuban sandwich is arguably the best in town. 

The crescendo here, however, is the happy hour that defies the very laws of pleasure. The drinks specials run daily from 4 to 8 p.m., stretch till 2 a.m. on Thursdays, and ignite an all-day fiesta on Saturdays. Diners get a 50% off all alcoholic beverages including the finest mojitos this side of Havana, fruity sangria, and an extensive selection of red wine. Step inside Cubata for a sizzling soirée of flavors and rhythm that will make you never want to leave.
