We drove an hour to try this restaurant and we were so glad for the experience. Authentic, great Cuban food in a very nice atmosphere, and very reasonably priced. Nice staff too. Will definitely return.

We had an amazing time seated outside and the food was very tasty. The service was top notch and they had the cleanest restrooms have seen and that tells us their kitchen is also very clean.

It was our first time at Cuba 1958 and we will DEFINITELY will return. We originally had made reservations for dinner but it was a beautiful day so we made another reservation for 1pm. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised especially driving over 1 hour to get there. The owner sat us immediately, the restaurant was spotless and the decor was fabulous. It was so nice to see the staff dressed with a crisp white shirt and tie. Our waiter Janio was attentive, personal, and efficient with a strong knowledge of the menu. The food was very authentic and the presentation was spot on. Before we left I asked wasn't there another room we saw on the website. Our waiter graciously took us to the back where we were even more blown away Stunning!!! Can't wait to go back and we will definitely let our friends and family know about this great treasure we found.

We ended up here by chance. We were looking for place for dinner at 9:30pm on Saturday. We were going to try LQ on Main. As I made a turn into street, saw this place out of corner of my eye. I parked my car and looked it up, to see what time it closed. My husband and I decided to try it out. Went inside, it was a bit loud. It was a nice evening so we asked to sit outside. It was perfect, nice breeze, beautiful music, lights, just perfect. Since we never been here before, ordered bunch of tapas. It was good move. Everything was delicious. My mojito was perfect, very refreshing. Our waiter was very good. I want to say his name was Adolfo, maybe. He was very friendly and explained things about menu and food. We were very happy with everything and will be back for sure. Thanks for good food and nice atmosphere

We had an amazing dining experience at Cuba 1958 in Sarasota! There were four of us, and we enjoyed every single dish we ordered — from the appetizers to the main courses, everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich and authentic, the service was outstanding, and the atmosphere of the restaurant was both beautiful and welcoming. This place is a gem! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful meal and a great vibe. A must-visit!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We arrived early for Happy Hour before enjoying a fantastic meal with friends. The empanada appetizer (ordered spinach empanadas based on waiter recommendation), followed by the best black bean soup I've ever had (and I've had a lot) and a entree of Masas de puerco. All were delicious! Our server, Luis, made it a completely enjoyable evening. Looking forward to our next visit.
Very nice place they food is great if you’re looking for a traditional Cuban feeling and a nice late night date this is definitely the right place for you! I will recommend to anyone

The people are very welcoming and kind! The atmosphere is romantic, clean and classy. The cocktails are excellent (especially the smoked old fashioned)! Very friendly knowledgeable staff! The food was delicious! I got the lechon asado which was very flavorful and tender! The cuban rice and sweet plantains sides were so good! My wife got a dish recommended by the waiter (he was so nice and personable) Churrasco! She loved the steak and I tried it and it was wonderful! She also got the cuban rice and plantains which she really enjoyed as well! Cuban 1958 is a gem of Sarasota and will not disappoint!!

Our first time trying Cuban food at 1958 was incredible! Every dish, from appetizers to dessert, was packed with vibrant, authentic flavors. The service was equally amazing, with Arturo making the experience even more enjoyable with his attentive and friendly demeanor. Highly recommend this gem for a fantastic dining experience!
