El Gringo Viejo - Havana

At an almost hidden location. Not easy to find, but that was the best food I had in Havana! So tender lamb! Still think about the taste. The restaurant is full of details, like the owner, full of stories.

This was fortunately on the street that I stayed, a kitty, kooky and interestingly designed place with great food, drinks and staff. Named after an old movie with Jane Fonda and Gregory Peck, there are numerous posters and nods to make for much to see. It's a bit expensive, but the Mojito was up there with the best, the Tamarind pork dish was simple, but delicious.

We tried several different restaurants in Havana and that was one of the better. It's kind of hard to find, it's actually on Calle 21 between E and F, and in a cellar, but if you go through the doors, you'll be glad that you found it! Entrees are a little more expensive $20 we have the land fritters and steak and red wine sauce very good!

Great food, good service. The ol' Gringo was there and even gave us a free drink. I love it!

Great little place with good food and excellent service.
