We were a table of 9, we arrived @ 7pm. The restaurant was 1/4 full. We ordered. The waiter returned 4 more times to have us repick food because there was not enough. The meal was 3 hours long, or 2 hours longer than it...should been. They did not ever bring me my food so I ate beans and rice that were extras from other others. My dad ordered the lobster tail special, and it was hard like a rock. The owner did nothing but stand around and not help. Everyone was very unhappy with the meal. What really hurt me was that some of the plates we ordered which they were out of, they served others later.More

Went here after it was highly recommend on tripadvisor and our lonely planet book about Havana, but wasn’t as good as I hoped. Cool way to enter up, up a lift to the fifth floor. Tip: get out the lift quickly because if someone else...calls the lift, it will immediately go back down! Service was good, but not enough choice for vegetarians. We asked the waitress and she spoke to the chef who offered a few specially made dishes. We opted for the vegetable lasagna which was ok, but lacked pasta, so felt more like a parmigiana. We did ask for some bread to go with it but I finished before it arrived, so we cancelled it. Toilets here were clean, with toilet paper, soap and a lock!More

Both our Lonely Planet book and our hotel highly recommended this restaurant, but we found it average. The service was good, and the decor was interesting (it's on the pent floor of an apartment building), but the food was average. Not bad, just doesn't match...the reputation we were led to believe, nor does it justify the price they charge (high by Cuban standard). I'm not saying it's bad, but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there.More

Yes, we’ve only been here 3 days but this Paladar has served us the best meal we have eaten in Cuba so far. Service was excellent and our waitress had English skills that far surpassed our Spanish!

It would take you an hour an a half to eat depending on how many you are and probably 10 minutes to walk to Parisien cabaret.
