Jazmine BautistaSeptember 2, 2016Churrasco a la Cubano was delicious and generous! Live music and a great atmosphere. Was the first stop on my visit there and set the mood for the whole trip. Def recommended!- Carolyn ZimmermanJanuary 25, 2015Just went for drinks and the mojitos were amazing! Best I've had and plan to return for more. Loved the live salsa music, our group had a blast dancing!
Rumba CaféJune 6, 2013Please join us for Republica Arepa from 7pm-Close for $7 ALL AREAPS! Also, Afro-Cuban Jazz begins at 9:30pm.
MOJITOS. I didn't like them until Rumba. Now I can't get enough. Their simple syrup is mixed to perfection. Not too sweet, but not too bitter.
Tuna ceviche and Lomo is the best dishes on the menu! Soo good
Latest happy hour in Adams Morgan - 7:30! Great $5 mojitos & $4 tapas with unbeatable ambiance.

Sara Trab NielsenMay 15, 2011The mojitos are amazing! Stop by on a Friday or Saturday when they have live music. Excellent for a date!
Cecilia LujanFebruary 4, 2012The band La Unica are amazing, and the guitarrist with the square glasses is sweet on the eyes!
