El Floridita

Fodor's Review:

The Cuban food at El Floridita is anywhere from good to great—and the music (Monday, Friday, and Saturday) is anywhere from very good to through the roof. A frequent guest is the salsa bandleader Johnny Polanco, backed by the sizzling Conjunto Amistad. Watching some of the paying customers who get up to dance alone is worth the price of admission (usually $10, or free with dinner).
