Pros: Intriguing food, great Latin music, very trendy, fun environment Cons: Shoddy service, pretentious atmosphere
For one night in my life, I felt like I was one of the "beautiful people." Asia de Cuba, located on Madison Ave. between 37th and 38th St., catered to every type of indulgence I enjoy as a New York City yuppie - dressing in my chicest clothes,...
This is a very detailed review (in a chatty, diary-entry style) about all aspects of the restaurant and its offerings. However, I think it’s critical to first know what size group you should take. I don’t want to mislead you, the food is...
Pros: Food is creatively presented, waitstaff is appropriately obsequious Cons: Too much 'tude, especially when the food is good but not great
Miz Trin has a brother who lives in Manhattan who is even more of an Intergalactic Space Diva than she is. This has numerous benefits, not the least of which is a free place to stay in New York, and a ready-to-go dinner companion who knows the "in"...
Pros: modern, designer room; active, buzzing "scene" Cons: I'm not into "scene"; not vegetarian-friendly; service lends new meaning to the term "family style"
(COMPLETELY REWRITTEN 8-25-00/UPDATED 6-4-01)
It has become slightly easier to get a reservation at Asia de Cuba now that it is no longer Leo's favorite place. It's still trendy and hopping, however, and reservations are a must....
The Madison Avenue, midtown entrance to this NYC hot spot is so mundane you could walk right past it and not even know that it was there. This is a dramatic contrast to the hip Philip Stark interior design and happening, trendy bar scene.
Pros: Everything was wonderful! Cons: Not for those who don't like to try new things.
Asia de Cuba is one of those restaurants that you will either love or hate. I loved it. I thought the food was delicious, the setting was appealing, and the atmosphere was a positive addition to the experience. I am sure that not everyone will agree...
Pros: Great food, fun place to people watch Cons: bathroom - what were they thinking???
I read all the reviews and was a little unsure whether or not to keep my reservation. It was my husbands birthday and I had planned a romantic trip for two into NYC. We arrived and were seated promptly in a great table upstairs right by the overlook and...
Pros: Chic, still hot as ever, food is delicious Cons: Loud, lots of attitude, impossible to get in to without a reservation, expensive
Asia de Cuba is a hot spot, still. The true mark of a great restaurant (in New York anyway) is staying power. Here it is several years later since Asia de Cuba burst onto the food scene STILL kicking it up on Madison Avenue. Something has to be said...
Pros: Nice lobby and waiting area. Nothing to talk positve about. Cons: Where do I start? Not very good!!!
I had to try this place due to the fact it was a friends birthday party (by the way, she made us pay!)and to be a good friend I read the reviews on this site thinking it would be bad for me. RIGHT!
Only one chicken meal to pick, prices were a little...
Pros: Airy post-modern room. Fresh ingredients that are well prepared. Cons: Scene is going downhill while the attitude remains constant. Food is often mismatched.
Although all of the ingredients are fresh and well prepared in Asia de Cuba, they are often mismatched and paired with sauces that do not highlight their essences. The diner has to work to have a good meal here, not only because the reservation and...
