cubana

i have been here for 2 days and i liked the place. they serve iced cold beers as well. however, i ordered veg. spring roll and it took around 30 minutes to be served even though i was the only customer that time. all in all my experience was good. i will come again for sure.

the food is a 1 star. some of the worst garbage i've ever had.
the service is awful.
the music, the vibe, and drinks are all good. the venue itself is very cool.
i don't get a place like this. tweak the food and the service and its the best place imaginable.
i would go back for the bands and the drinks but probably only order french fries or something that can't be ruined like the pizza.
probably the worst pizza i've had in all cebu and that's saying a lot since there are many horrendous pizza places.
i doubt they would listen to this review since the place is full all the time at night but i hope they can try to make it better.
bottom line, go for the drinking and for the singing but don't go for the food.

we stayed at horizon 101 on my birthday with my family and decided to drop by at cubana since it was close to where we stayed and i also love bars with live bands but i was kinda disappointed because the band were only playing music that only my uncle can relate. lolz. was hoping to hear an alternative rock like creed, collective soul, pearl jam, redhot or even metallica or basti of wolfgang type of music or even the new ones. we waited hoping they were gonna play some and so we ordered, beer, pizza, chicken terriyaki, strawberry and mango shake, mango daiquiri cocktail. service was really really slow. it feels like it was forever before our orders were served. the band was still playing music that i cant relate and all the request coming from the customers were also not my kind of music. i was gonna request but there were too many and we were getting too bored so after eating we just went home. it was like we just dropped by to get a taste test of their menu haha. in all fairness to the chef though, i loved their pizza, the cheese melt so perfectly the crust was wonderful. the chicken terriyaki does have a kick in the flavor, the terriyaki sauce lift it, it was a perfectly balanced sauce it was firey. staff were friendly. atmosphere was just the usual for typical bars. nothing special or fancy but id say its still a cool place to hang out.

gave 1 star not because of the place, but because of zomato. as stated cubana will open at 5:30pm (see photo on this review for reference). went there today 5:30pm and in hurry but as per cubana, they will open at 6:30pm.

the food is salty and basic for the price. i had the all pork pizza and beef spring rolls. the rolls were incredibly salty and oily. the pizza was very soft and not flavoured well.

the customer service is very lacking. in addition, they have dishonest business practices. some things aren't listed on the menu, which is common, but the servers never inform you of these additional charges. while trying to talk to the head server lady about such a charge, she raised her voice at me repeatedly, refused to let me speak, and yelled at me never to come back. 

it's a pity because the area is nice and the band is great. however, skip this place if you want to eat, shisha, and not be treated disrespectfully by the staff.

great singers and bands re here. the place is good for chill nights and the food is great! god, i love their skewers but not worth the price, it could have been cheaper, but t'was yummy. pizza is great! their servers are patient and great! always a good place to stay.

favorite chill place after a dreadful shift from work. their bands has the best vocals and great song choices with alternating genres every night. their pizza and pancit is worth it and just the perf “pulutan” for its price. i also love their cream mushroom soup right when i’m feeling tipsy or super sleepy because it revitalizes my system and not just that, it also really tastes so good.

this place can get really crowded. like you would have no seat or table at all..youd end up standing at the sides. all the bands ive heard here are amazing. makes u want to sing along. come here for drinks..not for food.

beer + pizza + cebu's top bands playing = one awesome night.

the place usually gets crowded with young people who loves loud music.

if loud music is not your cup of tea then this is not your bar

arriving at about 7:30 pm, we came here informed, based on other reviews that the crowds could be crazy and it's best to be early and so we were.

after waiting for over 15mins, no waiter, not even the manager, who stood literally 5 steps away from us, ever bothered handing us a menu or checking if we already had one. i tried calling their attention a few times but none looked our way or approached. other diners actually noticed us getting agitated but of course, the people who should be devoting their time to attending to their customers' needs, were somewhat deaf and blind for the night.

i am so glad we went to the italian restaurant next door instead. don't come to cubana if you're hungry.

the best bands in the city plays here. food and drinks are a bit pricy but hey! good food never comes cheap! pizza is good, chicken wings are also good. beer buckets are priced at 355 for 5 bottles. all in all this is a good place to unwind and hang out with good friends!

sisig, pizza, buckets of beer & good music.. what a great combination! haha!😄 a nice place to hang out with your friends over food, drinks & fine entertainment. although a lot of foreigners had flocked this place lately, this means that its getting more attention & popularity..😊

if you want to chill with friends, this is a good place. drink and eat with good music. the bands playing have really good choice of music.👍👍

the love love love their acoustic singers here and their pizza! it gets crowded after some time so make sure to come about 7pm i like the scene in here it's cozy and it has acoustic singers singing for the crowd. beautiful voices.

great pizza + great place = perfect! perfect for that chill night with friends. plus awesome line up of bands 👍 they even close pretty late (5am) just good enough for all those long talks with friends you haven't seen for a while while drinking good beer and eating that yummy pizza 😉
