What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners at Restaurante Bar Razones often praise the authentic Cuban atmosphere and the exceptional value for money, particularly the affordable lobster and well-priced cocktails. However, some patrons have noted slow service at times and inconsistent food quality, with a few experiencing issues with bill accuracy. Despite some drawbacks, the restaurant remains a popular choice for its local vibe and delicious BBQ dishes.
"From my point of view, out of some not so good reviews found here in Google Maps, this must be one of the best places to eat a very fresh meal in Viñales. After a bad experience in another place, I found this restaurant as a pleasant surprise. Even not located in the main front street of Viñales, Razones wins because of the quality and price for its dishes. From a distance, I enjoyed the best Red Snapper in Cuba, fresh as recommended by the staff. And also the pizza was surprisingly delicious (with fresh tuna as well as everything else regarding fish :), not the last recommendation, Sopa de Mariscos. Overall, I would like to have the same quality of the meal till the end of my Cuba holiday. Highly recommended for exquisite food !"

"I had lobster here and it was one of the best I’ve had, also it only costed $10cuc which is a steal. Portion is not big but can’t complain at this price. Had mojito at just $1. Service is great. Excellent dinner. Wifi is available but not free, bring your wifi card to use."

"It was our favourite place in Vinales before we have reccommended it to our colleagues from Poland. We have met together and opened 2 accounts. On both checks it was added some small sum. It cannot be accident. It is completely not acceptable. I normally do not count and trust people. I just wonder of earlier we were also being tried to cheat. Sad even we were always leave some good tips there. I apply to management to end these practices right away."
