What Clancy E dislikes about 3j Tapas:
Great drinks and busy atmosphere. We made the mistake of ordering pasta off the menu. The Alfredo was pretty bland and yuck, the cream was curdled. Order Tapas if coming here as they all looked good and well received by others dining in the restaurant View all feedback.

Nice place to sit, eat, and drink… just watching the world go by. Visited on new year's Eve 2016, and the staff were friendly and quick. Lovely food, great selection of tapas. The natural lemonade is something really special. Give the mixed sausage a miss though… not the best.
Probably one of the best places to eat that you can just find in Cuba. They actually try to make nice food. I would recommend the croquettes and anything they do that is deep fried actually! Arrive before 7 to get a table. They apparently take reservations but it doesn’t seem to guarantee you a table!
This place is special, take it from us who who eaten in some of the Worlds top restaurants including the current No 1. Massimo Bottura, chef patron of Osteria Francescana, a three Michelin star restaurant. The chef is using the beautiful Cuban organic food and fresh ingredients from a local farm, so be prepared for the best of the best in terms of flavour, freshness and design great taste combinations and a very wide choice. The tapas here is pretty good, although the portions are pretty small for the price you pay. Of course everyone knows tapas is served in smaller portions, but not this small. The drinks are nice and they leave you with the bottle of rum to add to your pina colada as you wish, like elsewhere in Cuba. The atmosphere is nice and the area too, and the waiters are not really friendly, but they are efficient and do their job. The veranda is good for people watching and relaxing. What really ruined the experience for me was the state of the bathrooms. It's a problem everywhere in Cuba, but in a restaurant like this I would expect things to be different, at the very least clean. but We went back five times in our stay in Vinales from our home base in Havana.
Wow. A bit more pricey than the other places but you get what you pay for. Get the spicy potatos with a cold beers. Done!
Everything we tried here was delicious, especially the pastas! The place was very crowded, and I could see why. That did not affect or slow down the service. Very friendly servers. If you're in Vinales, you must stop by for a meal. You won't be disappointed! The prices are very reasonable too...
