Cubana Waterloo, Waterloo

Just staggered out of our Xmas dinner at Cubana and maybe it's just the cocktails, but I'm very happy! I seem to remember smiley staff, busy place, fresh, very different food - and the cocktails....then there was a Salsa band, then....

Very excellent place - sure it gets crowded, that's because there aren't many places where you can get really good cocktails for under a fiver - and far less at Happy Hour, plus good, low-cost food - and it's open late and had live Salsa music. O work nearby and the secret, if you don't like crowds, is to come early in the week - but if you like a buzzy, busy, orginal place, look no further

Seriously good place - I'm with Sanjita on this - maybe Roger came on a bad night, but I can't see how he can call the food expensive when I had three good courses with my girlfriend for under �25 each with (excellent)cocktails. I work nearby and I often go for lunch and get two decent courses for �5.95. Cubana is known for it's cocktails, but it's food is some of the best value in town. It does get busy though, especially later in the week when the late-night live Salsa is on. Generally I've found the staff really good and motivated - even when run off their feet. And Don't forget the beer - Budvar at under �3 a pint and some good bottled beers, inc Cuban Cristal and Super Bok from Portugal - recommended
