Vérifié octobre 2026
Old's Havana is the Calle Ocho dinner you bring visitors to: traditional Cuban plates, mojitos, a band most nights, and a retro room on the busiest block of Little Havana.
Why you go
Because it is right in the middle of the Calle Ocho stretch, across from the cigar rollers and a minute from Domino Park, and because it does the full Cuban evening in one room: dinner, cocktails and live music. The crowd is a mix of neighbors and visitors and nobody minds.
When to go
Dinner from 7 pm, when the music starts and the street outside is still lively. Open 11 am to 11 pm Sunday to Thursday and until midnight on Friday and Saturday. Weekend nights are full; book or come early.
Know before you go
$$ and generous portions, so order to share. The address is 1442 SW 8th Street. Parking is street or paid lots along Calle Ocho; the block is walkable to everything else in Little Havana.
Comment y aller
- No Metromover or Metrorail stop within walking distance; the nearest is Vizcaya (Metrorail), about 1.9 km away, so plan on a bus, a ride or a car. The free trolley stops at Southwest 8th Street & Southwest 15th Avenue, 1 minute away. Parking, according to Google: a paid lot, paid street parking and free street parking.
