The strawberry daiquiri was AMAZING, just like all the food we had (spring rolls, gyozas, 2 different lobster rolls). The service was super friendly and she gave some great recommendations. $35 (usd) for the drinks and all the food is not bad at all, we will definitely go back!

There were 5 of us. Looking for a respite from the busy streets of Old Havana and for a tapas or snack. This place is perfect for both. Chill vibe. Cool decor and atmosphere.

The food is really good. They take pride in the flavour and presentation.

Air conditioned and modern clean toilets too.

Lobster tacos were the reason we went but Jama turned out to be our favourite meal in ten days of travelling around Cuba.

The tacos were spectacular, with a richly seasoned tomato sauce and tender, juicy lobster – but everything else we ordered was equally enjoyable. You can see how fresh the ingredients are, because most of the food is cooked on the teppan in the middle of the dining room.

The team was warm and welcoming. The prices are around €10-20 per person for two courses and a cocktail.

The place was decent , of course if you are a foodie like me and knows alot about different cuisines well this is not the place for you . It’s not real japanese cuisine, it’s a poor imitation of Japanese food which is supposed to be clean , delicate and simple but this was the opposite, it was a good experience but don’t go there expecting , salmon sashimi , typical California roll but you will get disappointed.

Amazing hospitality and great drinks. A local take on Asian food with love. Whereas is not to be compared with other capitals the food here is great considering supply challenges.

Julio and his team go above and beyond to deliver a memorable experience ! Fantastic value

Better than expected. After three weeks in Cuba we were suprised to find something completely different and wanted to give it a try. The prices are insanely high for Cuba (and understandably so) but ok for tourists. One Roll of 10 pieces comes in at about 10$.

Lemonade costs 400 and is tasty and big, but normally the most we payed for a lemonade was 150. This should give you an overview.

The atmosphere is modern and cool, food was good and especially beautifully prepared. The lobster roll was our absolute favorite (Dinamite with langosta) and we’d go back just for that. Tuna Tempura was just ok, the tuna was really bland. And the Ceviche roll kept falling apart and the mix of the too sour taste with a pesto simply didn’t work for us. That one we wouldn’t recommend.

Service was friendly and fast and if you really crave something foreign, this is a good place to stop.

I am so happy that we discovered this restaurant because I was basically starving in Cuba previous days due to bad food in all places. This restaurant is the only one I have visited here so far that can fall in international standard when it comes to sanitary conditions and taste of dishes. I was so positively impressed when I saw that bartender is doing everything with proper equipment and not touching anything with his bare hands.
We had vegetable spring rolls as a starter and seafood ramen and lobster as main dish. Everything was fine.
Prices are above standard Cuban prices but quality comes with price. Not best in my whole life but considering Cuba food availability and all conditions this is great.

Not a bad spot especially if you’ve been in Cuba for a couple days and your palate wants a change of scene. I got the New York roll with lobster (avocado was a little stale) and Nat got the dynamite roll with lobster (they were out of shrimp). Both cost 1500 pesos.

The place looks great, the food (Asian fusion) is ok, service is ok. But there were cockroaches wandering around the counter as we were eating and it wasn’t a nice sight. We told the waiter but all we got was a “sorry”.

Not easy to find Asian food in Cuba so was happy to find this place. Ordered gyoza, dynamite roll and ceviche tostadas, everything was good but the dynamite roll was our favourite. A bit expensive but I got my Asian food fix! Great place when you need a break from Cuban food 🙂
