Little Havana has this great place that you have to visit. Live music and good drinks

Aymet Chaples

A must visit place in Little Havana. Art and culture lovers heaven. Excellent bar on premises, best mojito in town.

Joe Aulet

A feel of what Cuba was like, back in the days.

Sandrine Kahi

horrible place ! real tourist trap! A mojito costs $15 dollar and is not even good

Joel Hanley

Cool place. Went in one evening, ordered a mojito, and spent 45 minutes walking around looking at the art, tables, and everything else. Worth a stop!

Ana Franco

A must see!!! It is a true pleasure to dance salsa or son cubano while looking at all the beautiful and eclectic art on the walls. Fun and sociable staff. I am giving a 5 but they should extend their wine list to be excelent!

Ivan Cervantes

Pretty cool place to hang for a drink or two. Cool atmosphere!

Edgar Cruz

Historic cozy place loved! It is a must in Calle Ocho

Natalia M. Arenillas

Love this place and the atmosphere! Always a good time with my friends and family, staff is attentive and the music is amazing! Looking foward to a fun time tonight.

Tom Poole

Really cool decor and art collection

Jesus Vasquez

Cubaocho is not a restaurant, it is an experience. There's live music and no cover charge. The musicians are professionals. The music is much better than other places. The bar has a great variety of drinks. Not a big selection of food. There's only about 6 options but and mostly tapas. Very good food even though portions are tapa sized. Prices aren't bad considering the quality of music and service at no cover charge. You must try the Cubaocho sandwich (plantain sandwich) with either shrimp or pork. Highly recommended experience in little Havana.

Sol The Tribu

Great cultural experience Miami and Cuba in one place. Great service and atmosphere. Amazing live music at night.

Rosy C.

Best place in town to dance salsa..

Marty Stonely

A museum bar nightclub ! Very friendly place in the heart of Little Havana.

Anabel Tirado

The host is will be the death of this business!!!.. She said cover is charged after 10:30pm, we arrived 15 min before and went to the bar with no problem. After 10:30 she wanted to charge us 15 dollars per person to be inside ( it was 9 of us)That is just crazy!!! The place is really nice and all. However the host was so disrespectful and very rude that I’m never going back again. She even told the waitress to find us at the bar and either charge us or quickly throw us out. Fire this woman for your own good Cubaocho

Beatriz Ilenia Matos Jimenez

Excellent place to dance and share with friends. It has good music, extraordinary atmosphere, and nice staff.

Olga Kirillova

Good

Carlos Arias

Hanging out with Johnny Dread good vibes

Jami Lercher

Such ambiance and history packed into this vibrant space! Come for a drink at the best Rum bar in Little Havana, but stay for the diverse and honest collection of Cuban art. If you're lucky, live musicians will be performing for the best experience!

Wilmo Rivera

One of the best place in Miami... By the way , I play there last week (2/10/2018) with a band call (Charanga Casino)...valet parking is really not expensive. El parque de domino, esta al frente del club Cubaocho... Whenever you get a chance, go visit...

Sv T

Visited again, and the Mojito which usually is very good, was so terrible, I could feel that there some kind of synthetic mix added. Tasted terrible, not sure if I want ever waste 10$ again :( very disappointed

Lorraine Harris

Has lots of fun, the service was good, and the band was excellent.

MFTMONICA Loperena

Great band! Picadillo!

ramon rdgz

Simply the best in MIA.....

Jonathan Black

Nice place for a drink and a cigar

Felipe Barreda

Even though its located in touristy part of town, this is by far the best Cuban cultural experience you will have period. You feel like you are in Old Havana with all of the Cuban paintings from the 18th, 19th and 20th century and it's a great place to hang out, have a drink and listen to some old fashion Cuban music. They have tables outside as well where you can sit relax, have a drink and smoke a cigar and they even pull out domino tables. It's as authentically Cuban as your going to get.

Vivacha F

Fun place. Great Cuban music and art.

Sam Babushkin

Very nice Cuban art gallery, but may be avarege night club.

jose villalobos

Nice place to hang out

Vedrana Tomic

Absolutely love this place! Came here with my boyfriend 2016 in June and had to come back in December when we were passing through Calle Ocho. It's half bar/half museum where the tables are made of paintings or wood-carved tables. The mojitos are delicious even though a bit pricey. Nevertheless it's a gorgeous place and when it's not too hot you can sit outside and watch the road with good music. Would come again!

Scott McCully

Unbelievable live music, great atmosphere and very welcoming.

TY Apaydin

Opportunity to see and feel the Cuban Culture.

Tigre Blanco

Great for dancing, shows, and drinks.

Zeida Sardinas

The best Cuban art, music, and mojitos in town. Go and you will be impressed!

jose salas

Espectacular place to visit in calle 8 Miami

Kelly Mendoza Paz

Amaizing, wonderful, nice, is my new favorite cuban bar

Lucas Maciek

Nice place. Art + bar.

Jessica Lopez

It gets good at night!

Eli Thoresen

Cuban energy, history, art and friendlyness in one place. Love it

cavallo Asino

Good rum, Bad habit to add more tip than they could do. Automatically 20% on receipt and they rounded up more on visa payment resulting a tip about 22%. This behavior made me disappointed and the rum at the end lost the special taste. Bad, very bad doing leaving me with this feeling.

Marek Kucharski

Fully Cuban atmosphere.

Randy Yeager

Phenomenal atmosphere, music, and tons of art pieces. We got mojitos which were definitely worth the money. We have tried a bunch of mojitos in the area and this one blew them all out of the water.

cory M

The best mojitos!! Try the originals with the King of Mojitos they are the best!! I highly recommended this place. It has a nice Cuban environment, and great service .

Rivka Greenfeld

Interesting article and affordable

Christian Ramon

Ok o courtship lo Bill

Pamela Kaiser

Wow, what a place! Such amazing art and rich history.

Noel ECHEVARRIA

Lots of fun

Tom Killeen

Awesome place. Try the rum bar on the left

Madelyn Miranda

We celebrated my father's 70th birthday at Cubaocho recently. It was FANTASTIC !!!! Ivan coordinated the entire event and he was an absolute pleasure to work with; I can't thank him enough. Nathalie mixed drinks at the bar and Barbara helped with the tapas and cake. It all went as planned. Great staff...Professional and very friendly. All of our guests loved the venue with its beautiful lamps and artwork. The Cuban band played for part of the evening. We danced the entire time and had a great time.

Ozzie Benitez

Great music....excessively overpriced drinks.....terrible service.

George Gautier

Nice crew and good concerts there. Good place for dance or just drink a beer in a place where you will see a lot of different people and culture.

Sérgio Silva

Amazing place to drink a mojito!

Miguel Sahid

Great place where the art it’s combine with latin-Cuban flare! Great ambiance! Great time!

Yolanda Pena

Besides of having on sale and exposed to the public the best originals Cuban pairings from some decades back, they have live music on weekends and one of the best Mojitos of Miami.

Olivier Métral

Amazing place serving the best Mojito in town.

Patrizia Braukmann

A star of Little Havana. If you want to be immersed in a beautiful setting where you are surrounded by the works of arts of Cuban masters and where you can enjoy the talents of many musicians while you sip on your favorite drinks with your favorite company, this is your place. I personally love tango Tuesday nights, or you can opt for dancing salsa with authentic salseros. Nevertheless, take a moment to look through the books that are laying around to learn a little about the magic of Cuban history and realize that you are sitting in a rare museum. Gracias CubaOcho!

nathalie rodriguez

Best place in Little Havana

Marco Sigg

Good drinks good music good art

Ginger Grant

Went on a Sat night. Wanted to salsa dance. Got there about 11pm. Everybody sitting in groups or couples. Maybe 4 people dancing. At 11:15 they had a live rock bank. Total waste of $10. I stayed for 20 minutes minutes and left.

Alex Xis.

We were there on Friday night. Admission was free. Live band was playing classic Cuban music almost without a break. People were dancing salsa cubano all the time. That was just wonderful experience! Just something I expected as a tourist from Europe! :)

Dani Peleva

A great place to have a cocktail and listen to the live music by the band. The bar is also a historical museum packed with artifacts from Havana, very interesting to browse through. The short description of the band doesn’t do it justice- they are superb, engage with the audience, dance and sing as if it’s their last performance. For those who fancy a cigar, the place has a detached cigar shop so you can enjoy your Cuban cigar with some rum while listening to some salsa classics. A fantastic place I wouldn’t miss out on!

Clare Ortman

Cubaocho is wonderful. It has amazing arts and artifacts lined in their wall along with the several displays of drinks and cigars in their counter. The vibe is quite cool and full of culture. I also like the musicians who played live every weekend. The people here are very friendly, especially the owner who greets us at the door. I will definitely come back again!

Brenda Mora

A great place to have fun at night with friends! I love the variety of music, art, and characters that form part of this place's environment.

Ananya Gupta

This Museum and Performing Arts Center with the bar is truly fantastic. I highly recommend that you take the time out to visit the Cuban district and experience this Museum come bar in the evening and in the daytime so you can clearly see the thousands of artifacts this owner has collected and put on display. Every single item in here is absolutely fascinating and I cannot imagine the amount of work and determination it took on the part of the owner to put this whole place together. I believe if you're interested many items on display are also for sale. The Cuban coffee here is excellent the bar drinks are acceptable. On certain nights the Museum also hosts dancing lessons for various let you know dance styles. A cup of Cuban espresso cost $3. Don't forget to view the tables outside in the hallway but be warned that there's heavy cigar smoking if you decide to stay outside on the tables.

Bevan Ryan

Manager is an absolute gent

Діма Дімончик

Nice place

Teresita Manrique

Loved it. Good mojitos

Brian Hook

Pretty cool artistic place.

Ole Treble

Nice welcoming place. Lots of drinks to choose from, furniture wouldn't look out of place in the 50s. Exquisitely maintained.

Rick Boubelik

Some great pieces of lost Cuban art!

Joseph Arnaez

The place is good the music was good too. Salsa music plays all night and the drinks are average. The place is covered in old fashioned painting and some are for sale. This is a clear definition of what a salsa night club is, in the heart of calle ocho

Marangeli Merced

Sangria is ok not the best but ok, pina colada is not good a bit water down do not recommend.

Julio Roberto Villatoro

Nice place to enjoyed the night

Santi Blan

We had a great time there! Awesome atmosphere and shows, and great food and drinks!

Ernesto Rodriguez

Good mojitos ....great music

eric douglas

Nasty people’s working in this place!!!

Cody Pawlak

Definitely a place to see!!

chicorivero

Very nice place, there's an art collection, mostly paints of different quality artist mostly cuban I guess, at the same time is kind of a museum with a bar where you can enjoy the better rums of the world and quality cigars in a very attractive and bizarre ambiance

Enrique Milian

Cubaocho is a unique art museum, bar, concert venue. With its large selection of rums from around the world and fine cigars, it's no wonder once you arrive you never want to leave. Great art for sale and other rare liqueurs. CubaOcho is a MUST SEE in Miami, hands down!

Felipe Palleros

Awesome friendly place. Great live music. Drinks a little pricey and not the best. Staff were very nice and attentive.

Fredisley Leon

Best place to enjoy Cuban and Latin life music,,,best mojitos and Cuba libre cocktail

A Google User

MUST ,BE the correct dates or information,, GRAND CENTRAL?

Cassandra Bey

It's amazing worth going over there a second time the own is nice but don't understand/speak English but you will be happy with the place

Pedro Colon

This place allows children and babies inside at night. This is not a family friendly environment. Loud music and servers are few. Cover charge for walking in. Also one bathroom for each gender with one stall. Lines for bathroom are crazy.

DANY SMITH

Nice place and great live music high recommendation.

Eric Allred

I went to an evening event here regarding Cuban journalism/freedom of speech. The food & bar seemed expensive for the actual product served. As regards the ambience, it is cool, but not sure it qualifies as a "Museum" per se. I did enjoy seeing all the items hanging everywhere as well as some historic books from Cuba. Nice experience.

Luis Galvez

Cuban historical place

Alda Chavarri

Have a good time on this art pub.

Jennifer Youbert

Beautiful place with amazing drinks and music! Walked into this gem the last night of our vacation and it literally was the highlight of the whole Miami visit. The all-female live salsa group was phenomenal and their piña coladas ate to die for!!!

mike Branham

Great atmosphere best mojito I've had in a long time

Peter Cortes

My favorite spot in calle ocho for a titillating drink.

Benjamin Faktor

Emma G

More of a variety of music.

Betty Moya

I love this place. There a very nice environment, the decoration is exquisite.

Anselmo Carpio

A unique place which mixes the concepts of bar, art gallery and museum at once. Really interesting place to visit, good people, and very nice workers on it. You must try their mojitos, and some spetial different rums they have, totally worths a visit. If you have the chance, ask the holders about their history and how they started in there, very interesting also

Raul Cantero

Great place to view art and dance on weekends. Food service is actually good and reasonably priced. Drinks are strong.

Luna Quest

Such a fun place! I especially loved the rooster that resides outside the door

Suz Q

Very cool atmosphere and ambience but there's never any space to dance. One of the salsa schools in Miami does a lot of parties here and it's always too hot and too cramped.

Tina Gould

I loved the singer by the piano. The Cuban sandwich was delicious.

John Mac Dougall

Fun atmosphere, eclectic art, and great Cuban Jazz performances!

carlo paul samayoa

Love the it. Nice place.

Chelsea Carpenter

I wish I could have come here at night. Loved seeing the variety of Cuban art and everyone was so friendly.

Esmeralda Cruz

Great vibe,great music...

Katerina Nova

The best place in Little Havana. So creative! Great art, music, drinks

Michela B.

It's a unique place to visit, at the very least once, and give yourself some time to check out the interior and immerse in the history of Cuba. Bar prices a little stiff, hence the four star, but definitely worth it.

Ina's World

Stoped in from a bus tour, was nice.

Hidden gem in Little Havana. Owner has largest Rum collection in the world and the best mojitos!! And also a Frank Sinatra bar. A museum, art gallery and bar all in one.

Jamie Monahan

Very unique, fun place and not over priced.

Carlos Cuozzo

Great historical and cultural compilation of many arts and historical pieces of Cuba and the Caribbean islands

Orlando Alessandrini

The ambience and overall experience is pleasant and worthy of a few pics. The drink prices are between "reasonable" to "a bit too much". Worth checking out at least once whether you're a local or a tourist. Oh, and try the mojito- definitely some of the best.

Michael Chaviano

Great venue with good drinks and live Latin music

Juraj Seges

Very nice place in the heart of Little Havana. Library, museum and bar in one, prices a bit high - 20$ per drink.

Silvia A Gonzalez Guerra

Great service + great ambience.

Antonio González

Nice bar. Cool cuban music band. Awesome decoration. Must see.

MIGUEL TORRES

I bought a hat at big Papi store... great guy, he suggested to go Cuba 8. We went sat down, order a few mojito and got into a conversation about drinks, arts and history with the bartender. Cant remember her name but she made the time relaxing and interesting. She made my first time in Miami a time to remember. We will be back.... Just to sit, drink and let time flow by in a relax atmosphere. Thank you.

Tiffany Krause

Great atmosphere with authentic live music. A good experience of Little Havana culture.
