Tops of the 5* attributes is the service. We were greeted by the owner/head chef at the door, guided through the menu by a knowledgeable waiter and attended to by a small platoon of servers, I cannot say enough about the welcoming feelings we received. The menu was varied for all tastes and flavors and the food was done to... More

We had an excellent time here, the place was amazing, the staff were friendly, efficient and couldn't do enough. The food was wonderful, we shared a taster plate to start which was lovely and plenty for two. The main courses were tasty, as was the desert. Just when we thought the evening was over, the waiter brought us each a... More

I had a prawn starter and they were huge; the caribbean sea-food stew was delicious. The whole place is full of interesting antiques and posters etc, all set on the ground floor of... More

The food is fabulous.The food is purely Cuban-creole. Malanga, yucca, cerdo asado (pork), lobster, fresh... More

An amazing well-kept interior, detailed service, conceptually prepared food, for a unique culinary experience.

If Ernest Hemingway was alive now a days…hew will be hanging around for sure at the “San Cristobal Paladar" when not at the Floridita or Bodeguita del Medio. This restaurant will give you a taste of what Cuba it all about. The owner, Carlos – with more than 20 years as executive chef and extensive international experience - goes around... More

During the first week of March we enjoyed a truly romantic dinner at the San Cristobal. The decor is eclectic, each room with a unique atmosphere. Our fare consisted of curried chicken, pork medallions, salad, rice and black beans ... very flavourful. The red house wine was respectable. The wait staff were most friendly and post dinner provided complimentary 7-yr... More
