El Aljibe is the most popular restaurant in Havana, being famous for its roasted chicken which comes with large dishes of rice, black beans, potatoes and assorted salad. This huge meal has a really good price and even if it would be expensive, you would still pay for it, because it is so delicious you would want to lick all your ten fingers! :) The service is excellent, and quite quick despite the restaurant's high popularity both among locals and visitors.

You can find this really great outdoor restaurant in Miramar, not very far from downtown Havana.

Miramar, Havana, Cuba

Price:
Main courses CUC$10-CUC$24 (US$11-US$26/£5.40-£13)
