What Adele M likes about El Cuba Libre:
Random discovery on our way to, would you believe it, a Cuban salsa festival. We had a delicious and authentic Cuban dinner here, work a warm welcome from the lovely Belen and her family. Will be back! View all feedback. What Scarlett Anderson doesn't like about El Cuba Libre:
The only authentic about this cuban restaurant is that the owners have strong links with the Cuban Communist Regime, the same one who violates the most basics Humans Rights. They hosted a Communist Event few days ago organized by the cuban embassy in UK (some...pictures attached). View all feedback.
