Open 12m to 12a.m. Performances 12m-4pm, 4-7pm

    • This is a very lively restaurant on the corner of Plaza Vieja, which is dedicated to Benny More and the home to good son bands, notably Son del Trópico, Sonido Son and the Septeto Matamoros who perform every day in two separate sets. You can come simply to enjoy the atmosphere at the bar. The clientele is almost exclusively tourists, which limits the appeal for aficionados of Cuban music.
