Place is very welcoming. Nice people. Friendly. Food is good. Ambiance is fun. Live music was great. I would return. One of Las Vegas treasures.

Cuba Cafe has been around for years! Their delectable menu has so much offer. Oftentimes, people don't think of going to restaurants just for desserts, however, this place has scrumptious desserts. Food and service is out of this world! I recommend you to visit this place as soon as you can! Prices are so affordable. This is a beautiful spot, they have live music on Fridays and Saturdays.

Place wasn't packed at all when I came here. Only another couple dining in. Customer service was initially good, they were attentive but as the time progressed, we had to keep asking to refill our drinks. The food took a long time to arrive. I usually don't mind if the food is delicious but it lacked flavor. The appetizers came quickly, the empanadas were decent but doughy not enough filling. My oxtails were not tender at all and the sauce could've used more flavor it was very runny. I've had plenty of Cuban food around, so this place was a bit disappointing for me.

I would rate Cuba Café as THE BEST Cuban restaurant in Las Vegas. Slightly higher prices but definitely worth it because of the quality and quantity.Our Pollo Salteado was delicious. Ordered an order of Yuca Frita (cassava fries). Much better than potato French fries. My Batido de Mamey (shake) was also delicious. Raul and Orlando were our servers and constantly checked to see if all was good. Nice atmosphere. Video displayed famous Latin singers in concert. Have gone here previously over the years.

Delicious food the Cuban Churrazco was on point . Service was great Raul is excellent great customer service super friendly and helpful. This is my second time there and the service and food does not disappoint and the ambience is chill good Latin music playing. It's a must try

The food is very average in my opinion. Where this place shine is in its sangria and other alcoholic options. Another note I have is that the interior was waaaaay too dark when I went. I had trouble seeing my own food!

This place has amazing food. Came here for live music on Saturday night. The best ox tail I have tasted so far. Wife loved the Palomilla. Great service and atmosphere ​​

100% recomendado: Cuba Café en Las Vegas La comida deliciosa, el ambiente espectacular... ¡Y el servicio de Orlando? De otro nivel. Gracias por tratarnos como familia 100% recommended!! Amazing food, great mojitos and the service, 10/10. Don't miss out on this gem!!

Located next to my favorite chicken spot, I stopped by here for a Cubano sandwich for myself and a coworker. The service was good, and the restaurant was beautifully decorated. Ordered the Cubano sandwich, and it came with fries. It was delcious, and my co-worker also enjoyed it. We will definitely be back.

I've always wanted to try a Cuban spot and I'm so glad I found one! The Cuban dishes were surprisingly simple however very delicious. I'm no expert in Cuban cuisine however to me, this style of cuisine comes off as a humble culinary style. The ingredients used seem to be very flavorful and neutral vs other styles of Hispanic cuisine which are spicy or robust. Also, the dishes and drinks remind me of something tropical. The dishes are served with plantains and for cocktails there's tons of different pina colada or mojito type drinks. At night there's a bar that is open, and I was told on Friday and Saturday nights the dance floor is open with a live band and singer starting at 9pm. What I can tell you is that if you're looking for strong drinks, this is the place for you. Even the tropical fruity drinks were pretty stiff so there's no skimping on alcohol here!

Dress code?? Looks super casual, yet in Yelp description it says casual/classy. Um, that's two complete different looks. Help?

Not classy, just casual, but not super casual

Can we bring a bottle of wine?

I think they will sell you the wine

Is there salsa dancing?

Dancing is on Saturdays and starts at 7 PM

Big fan of this place back when it started on paradise. Lots of good memories with friends at the…read moreold location. Dined at cocktail table in Bar area of this location. Very Comfortable. A little short staff, but the team were all friendly and all were assisting each other to fill in the gaps of service. Bartender seated me as host stand was not manned, other servers bussing and running food as bartender was busy. Appreciate the awareness and assistance. Old items on menu... bacon wrapped dates, beet salad, pulpo, mussels were all still really good! Crab cakes were bland. Do not recommend this dish. A staple and OG restaurant of Vegas in the past and still and great place now, just with an upgraded look. Parking is easy.

The staff made us feel like serving us was a burden, and their attitude throughout our visit was cold, dismissive, and unprofessional. Good customer service costs nothing, but it makes all the difference. Unfortunately, this restaurant failed in that regard. Instead of feeling like valued customers, we left feeling ignored and unwelcome. I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience. There are too many other places that genuinely appreciate their customers and provide the level of hospitality people deserve. I will not be returning.

Tried almost one of everything but got too stuffed! Top dishes: Foie Gras - flavor was soooooooo popping. Melted in my mouth. Holy Iberico Presa - this was so flavorful too. It was savory and juicy. Elote - authentic and how it's supposed to taste Spring Pea - So fresh and sweet with a bit of crunch from the veggies. Definitely coming back again! 10/10 spot

Been seeing this restaurant on social media and I wanted to try it…read more It's Wednesday evening. The restaurant opens at 5pm, we parked a few minutes before the restaurant opened. Walked in and even though we had reservation for 5:30pm, the host accommodated us. We had our choice of where to sit and we picked a table by the window. Nice restaurant with high ceiling, warm decor and a small wine glass cellar that you can see from most anywhere you sit in the restaurant. The moment we arrived to the moment we left, service was amazing. Timo was a waiter and was so attentive to us. Great recommendations and we enjoyed it all. Our water glasses and water bottle on the table were never empty. Timo and support staff were great. You have a few AYCE options and we did the $65pp. The first 3 items on this menu are only provided once while the rest of the food menu is unlimited. You have 90mins to dine. We actually only ordered up to 2 on a few items as we actually did get pretty full. The appetizer size food items were all flavorful and most served on crostini. Some were savory amd refreshing. Great sauces to complement the fish or meat. We had 3 dessert options. We did the cheesecake and the white chocolate pudding. Omfg, loving the rich creaminess of the pudding with sea salt sprinkled and topped with tiny roasted marshmallows. The cheesecake is not served with anything but it's not plain at all. It's beautifully buttery and light. 2 things that stood out: The chef came out to chat with us which was so enjoyable. The food and service were already great and the chef's attention to each table was a topper. Timo, our waiter cleaned our table of crumbs and provided new folks and napkins so that we can enjoy dessert. We appreciated that. All went well and we will visit again. Totally recommend ADB!

Going to Fukuburger located in the same complex a few times, I've seen this place but actually…read morenever been inside. Firefly has been on my mind for a couple of months and I decided to book a reservation here at their southwest location for our monthly date night. They also have another location on Paradise Road. Through Yelp, I made a reservation for 6/20/26 at 7:30pm. I guess a reservation wasn't really necessary because it wasn't busy when we showed up and there were plenty of open tables available. It did start getting a little packed towards the end of our visit, though. Tucked away in the back of the restaurant is a small, cozy bar and more regular seating. We started off with some cocktails. I got myself a La Paloma and my LTP got the Fly Tai (possible pun on Mai Tai?). The La Paloma was very fruity, had a salty orange rim, and a dried orange slice on top. The Fly Tai was also fruity and had a dried rosé on top of its' frothy texture. We were also given complimentary bread along with a scoop of butter. Next, we ordered the tapas. We weren't 100% sure how big they were going to be, so we decided on one to share, one for me, and one for him. We ordered the following; Serrano Sliders, Manchego Mac and Cheese, and Tortillas a la Española. The Serrano Sliders came with crispy onions on the side that you can put on by yourself. I'm not a big meat person anymore but these sliders were totally delicious! The Manchego Mac and Cheese was excellent and probably one of the best mac and cheese dishes I've had in a long time. The Tortillas a la Española had a very colorful orange sauce drizzled on them and they were basically like cubed mashed potatoes. The portions on each tapa were very decent and weren't too big for us, so we ended up sharing all three of them due to their size. I loved everything about this place, especially the mac and cheese. The ambiance that had perfect date night feel to it and the service was excellent from beginning to end. I would love to come back again!

I was a little disappointed with this location. It was mostly about the service. Very inattentive,…read moredid not feel welcomed here and it was hard even getting BASIC services. We wanted additional drinks couldn't get them, wanted to order additional plates, couldn't get that. There was about 45 mins where there was no server on the floor at all. The two dishes we had were decent but not enough to overshadow the lack of service. This will not be a place we recommend or come back to again.

Hands down the best meal I've had in Las Vegas. From start to finish, everything was outstanding…read moreand easily lived up to the hype. A few standout dishes were the oxtail hummus, which was absolutely incredible even for someone who usually doesn't like oxtail, the seasonal raw clams with pineapple, which were a surprisingly perfect combination, and the sinigang clams with lemongrass, packed with flavor. The seasonal octopus with squid ink risotto was also excellent, and the passion fruit mousse made for the perfect finish. We were celebrating an early birthday, and the staff surprised me with ice cream, which was such a thoughtful touch. Every server was attentive, warm, and genuinely kind. The vibe and ambiance gave me a dark, romantic, grown and sexy ambiance. Overall, the food, service, and experience were all fantastic, and I can't wait to come back.

We ordered quite a few different items, which I truly wish I remembered everything we got, but it was hard to remember. I truly think you can't go wrong here. I loved that our server asked us if there were any food allergies and was so knowledgeable of the menu that she was able to let us know what we could order and what we should order on the side. The menu is meant to be shared with others, which I love. That is usually how I like to eat when I go out with friends. And we truly enjoyed the entire experience. The mocktail I had was really delicious and refreshing. It's beautiful inside! I would say make a reservation just in case. But I definitely needed this reminder of how amazing this spot is because I will definitely be back sooner than 6 years now haha
