Fodor's Review:
Near the malecón's north end, this restaurant with a fun-loving atmosphere has a bit of a sea view from its second-floor dining room, and a Caribbean flavor. Specials vary by season; if possible, try the roast pork, the Cuban-style paella, or the pork loin in tamarind sauce; order rice, salad, or fried plantains separately. Like its Havana namesake, La Bodeguita sells Cuban rum and cigars, and the live music -- like the cuisine -- is pure cubano. A sextet performs most nights until past midnight. Try the Havana specialty drink mojito: a blend of lime juice, sugar, mineral water, white rum, and crushed fresh mint leaves.

Very Relaxing!

We got there for dinner around close to 6 on a Friday night and it wasn't busy at all. I assume people don't come out until later. The lower level was full of people reading the paper and having a little drink. We were the only people staying on the 2nd level. We got the mixed plate for appetizers and also Pollo Grille. The appetizer is a good way to start if you want to try a little of everything. The taste of the food are amazing and even the steamed white rice has a little flavor to it. Definitely get the mojito, it's worth it! I wouldn't buy the shirts at the souvenir store since you can get shirts with Che on it for less at the local stands by the flea market.
So Much Fun

This is a great place for some fun and excellent mojitos. It is always super-crowded and there is a fun shop with lots of cool Cuban merchandise.
