Yes, I recommend Cuba Libre Rest. DC
Excellent restaurant the paella was amazing
I’m giving this place 4 out of 5 stars. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because of the person working at the front entrance.
The service from the waitstaff was excellent. Everyone was very friendly, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was amazing.
The only negative experience was with the hostess. When we told her we wanted a table, she immediately said no without asking how many people were in our group or offering any alternatives....read full review

Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar in Washington DC offers an authentic Cuban experience with excellent food, including delicious croquettes. The atmosphere is reminiscent of Havana, featuring beautiful decor and fast, friendly service. The restaurant serves generous portions and plenty of dairy-free options, making it a good social spot for gatherings. The passion fruit margarita remains a standout, and the bar area, with bartenders like Nelson, is fun for a night out, especially for enjoying mojitos. While some dishes, like the Masitas de Puerto Fritas, may not meet everyone's expectations, the September tasting menu provides great food at an affordable price. Guests have enjoyed trying dishes such as ropa vieja and empanadas, although some found the empanadas fried too hard. The place sometimes hosts dancing at night, adding to its lively vibe, though arriving early might mean missing the dancing. The decor is pretty, and the music is great when the restaurant gets lively. The bathroom lines can be long, but overall, Cuba Libre remains a highly recommended spot for a taste of Cuban cuisine and a fun night out.
