El Cocinero

Set in a former factory adjacent to Fábrica de Arte, El Cocinero is a two-part restaurant and rooftop lounge that attracts Cuba's newly minted upper classes. Come for dinner in the cozy second-floor dining room then retire to the third-floor open-air bar for mojitos under the stars. The food is delicious and the ambience is hipster cool; this is undoubtedly the hot spot for Havana residents in the know.
