Cuba Libre provides its guests an "escape" to Havana, Cuba. Not to the 500-year-old city’s past, but to the sights, sounds and tastes of the colorful, bustling city of today.
While our design reflects the architecture of Cuba’s distinctive Old Havana district, Cuba Libre serves chef-crafted versions of both traditional and contemporary Cuban dishes. Cuba Libre’s carefully curated menu combines beef, poultry, pork and seafood with tropical fruits, root vegetables, herbs, and seasonings into a mix of robust and soul-satisfying dishes, which are flavorful, but rarely spicy. It also features hearty vegetarian options.
Cuba Libre specializes in rum and mojitos, offering more than 90 premium and flavored varieties of dark, light, spiced, and aged rums, and many varieties of mojitos. The restaurant’s premium cocktail selection uses a wide variety of fresh ingredients including numerous tropical fruits and juices.
Cuba Libre recognizes the importance of music and rhythm in Cuban culture, transforming after dinner on weekends into a late-night Latin hot spot featuring DJs spinning a mix of Latin music, with live performers and dancing.
We use E-Verify to confirm the identity and employment eligibility of all new hires.
