Michael Rogger

What an amazing place. Middle of the day soul of little Havana. Super fun. Staff was amazing, live music and dancing during the day.. amazing. Plenty of eats and drinks to choose from. Reasonably priced. Humidor on site. Do yourself a favor and have lunch here. A++

Timur Khan

Adam

The staff was amazing. Friendly, helpful in picking out a nice cigar to enjoy on the patio. Highly recommend if you visit little Havana. Luis is top notch.

Katherine Ortega-Rolon

I came here as a recommendation from a friend and I really enjoy the music played by a very talented gentlemen. The cortadito was delicious. Later I had a OldFashion with a cigar recommended by the staff and was a perfect comb. Staff were also attentive and nice to me. Felt very comfortable for a solo travel.

King Ramirez

Paul Geldersma

Marileth was an awesome server! The band was absolutely awesome! Seen them a few times. This place is rocking!

Allison Sorrentino

Great music, great drinks, and the owner went out of his way to make sure we had a great time! He brought over a personally recommended cigar for my husband and told him all about the wrapping process and his history of rolling cigars!

This place was awesome. A must try if you go to little havana. The service was awesome.

A true gem recently shared with me by well-traveled friend. All the greatness of Little Havana without the “tourist” feel but not lacking authenticity one bit. If in Miami it’s worth the trip to little Havana - it’s a must stop by whether intentions to explore Little Havana or not (which anyone who hasn’t should and anyone who has always comes back). Skip the tourist attractions and come for great service, cigars, drinks, company, music (live or otherwise), The atmosphere is incredible; from the art on the wall to the floor to humidor and bar. My new favorite “cigar bar” and I’ve been to many! Bartenders and service staff are passionate, experienced, personable but fun, so much fun all while maintaining professional, talented and genuine service. Highly recommend! Enjoy!

Ivelisse Brandon

We did not eat therefore we can only assume it would be just as amazing as the cigars, drink and staff. Great music and atmosphere to come smoke some great cigars and relax.

Probably the best cigar lounge/bar in little Havana. It’s a huge restaurant inside and out with the bar itself being accessible by customers who are both inside and outside the restaurant. Their cigar collection is impressive and tastes even better. You can smoke inside, outside, anywhere. Music is great and the live bands are awesome. Stopping here is a must.

First time in Miami, Carlos made it a spectacular night! PERFECT server! Definitely recommend this place, make sure to ask for Carlos!!!!

Absolutely love it here- so authentic, Joel the bartender was super personable, we talked the whole time! Drinks were amazing- had an espresso martini and a shot of tequila ;)

Joel was our bartender and did the best aperol spritz for me, my boyfriend and i we enjoyed too much with him and mary was our server she had a great personality and was so careful

I was just walking around the area, and the live music at 11 attract us to this place, totally welcoming with out being pushing, we grab 2 cigars at a nice price from they huge selection, and sip into a few drinks, have a few bite and enjoy the amazing ambience. Superb customer service. And this is about 11am, being told that at nite is a totally diferente scene. Will come back

Great services, life music is great as well, in the center of little Havana a good place to enjoy, dance and spend a good time with friends, I recommend this place come and see with your own eye.

Such a fun place to sit for a drink or food. Live music and dancing going on, happy hour deals are great and staff super helpful. Must try the mojito of course!

Awesome and wonderful place! The drinks and the vibe it's amazing! The staff is 5 stars and Roberto and Joel there's just amazing! Would recommended always!

One of the best place in Little Havana, excellent environment, Latin Live Music, what a vibe! amazing Cuban style Cigars, and the cocktails no comments! the Bartender Mike so professional, old school and very kindly, He made me the best Mojitos I have tasted ever!

I've been here twice. First time i brought my own cigar and had it inside. Very comfy couches. Staff is great! Drinks are just as you want them to be, great! But this second time i went i tried their cigar and, DAMN!, it was great! I need to try it again to see if it beats my favorite cigar. It was their DUO, a double Maduro. Their cigars are abit on the pricey side, but well worth it. If you like cigars, cuban/spanish music, and rum. You have to try this spot. I will def be visiting again and again!

Superb Cuban band! So much fun dancing. Good drinks. Decent bar food. Nice staff. Highly recommend to come here to hear a great live band and DANCE 💃 salsa

Joel was such a great server. He helped us with the hookah,drinks, etc. his vibes were so awesome. Would def recommend and don’t forget to ask for Joel! Will come back just to visit Joel

The place is very nice. Nieves is fantastic. Her attention was epic . We will be back next year. Thanks

Mikey the bartender was absolutely amazing!!! He made sure we were good all night and he had a wonderful attitude. He makes this place feel like home!! Thank you, MIKE!!!!🩷🩷🩷

Joel makes the best Mojitos on Calle Ocho!

Great place! Live music to DJ, awesome vibe. You can smoke cigars inside or out. The only thing missing is coffee, so we had bourbon instead. Friendly waitstaff, definitely be back!

Was walking down the street seen this happy hour and decided to walk in. Very happy buy 2 drinks get 1 free and free shot for each person! Roberto was such a great server/bartender 10/10

Our waiter Roberto was amazing, and the vibe and overall experience were incredible! I’ll definitely be coming back when I visit again — the drinks were just as amazing!

We went here for drinks after dinner. The music was great. Marileth was a fun and attentive waitress.

Deborah was taking care of us tonight. Her service was excellent! Great recommendation on drinks. We’re going back to hotel to get ready for the Banda. Going to sit in her section when we get back.

Thanks Joel! Cocktails were really good! Highly recommended.

Louis our server was amazing - unbelievable atmosphere! Walk in humidor - cigars rocked! Definitely at must stop!

If you enjoy cigars and quality of life, then this place is a MUST go to! Amin is aweosme...I always feel welcome here.

Ramses and Sandy provided the best service and a proper tour and insight into Cuban lifestyle and cigar making ! Much love from Denmark ♥️ you are always welcome in our place ✌️

Ania, our bar tender, prepared the most delicious mojitos, negronis and Godfather drinks! We left as the band was setting up. We will be back!

Our Server Joel was friendly annd attentive and made sure we enjoyed our star. Great service from start to finish.

I recently went with my boyfriend and we had such an amazing time. Starting from the place, the vibes, attention, Luis Manuel was very professional, his service was over exceptional. He made our time there the best. We really enjoyed it!

Ania was great and so sweet! We got an aperol spritz and it was so refreshing! The live music and dancing was also so nice!!!

Great live music, food, and dancing. Cigar wouldn't stay lit though so I don't think I would buy a cigar from here again. No one spoke English but it was easy to get around by translating on google. Otherwise I would highly recommend this place. Very fun, lively, and open late.

If you are looking for a fun, classy, authentic cuban experience where cubans go to dance and smoke a good cigar to be happy, friendly and relaxed, look no further. The cocktails are exquisite, and Mike makes them even better! The staff will greet you with a smile and are always attentive to their patrons. Check it out! Welcome to my barrio!

The ambient is so nice, the drinks are good and there is live music after ten, everything is so good 👌🏻. The waitress Nicole is very kind.

Great place. Good food, fast service and live music. We've been there twice already and definitely coming back again. Also they sell cigars the server nieves

Joel The best place the best guy bartender what a beautiful personality. I will come here every week and I recommend everybody to come enjoy it and enjoy it Joel service You will feel like a your own party by your loved one God bless you, Joel

Michael the manager, was great! He helped us to choose our first cigars and then was teaching us to smoke it , so much fun! And Louis makes the best Margeritas around. Thank you so much!

Nicole was amazing, honestly the best service you can ask for. Great cigars, drinks and live music. This is the go to spot if you are in the little Havana area. Big shoutout to Nicole for her 5 ⭐️ service! I will be coming back soon!!

I love the place. The music , the vibes, the drinks. Highly recommended. Excellent customer service provided by Eduany and Andy. Great Saturday night experience.

Guantanamera cigar was very good. The live music awesome! Our server Ania was amazing!!!! Prices were great. Guantanamera draft beer yummy. Definitely will visit again..... Thank you!!!!

We did not eat therefore we can only assume it would be just as amazing as the cigars, drink and staff. Great music and atmosphere to come smoke some great cigars and relax.

Stopped here a weeknight before a cruise to kill time and have a cigar. Relaxed place, good service, friendly staff. Enjoyed two cups of coffee with one of the house cigars. No live band but did have cuban music playing which was a great way to end my night visiting calle ocho.

Had the pleasure of stopping by for a couple drinks and Joel took great care of us! Chill atmosphere, great music and vibes! Come visit if you have the chance!

Marileth was so incredible! She made my sister’s bachelorette party so much fun and showed us some dance moves along the way! Highly recommend her and Guantanamera!

Guantanamera’s is a solid spot to hit if you enjoy smoking cigars and having great conservations with your friends. Joel took great care of us as a party of 11. He was attentive, patient, and an overall great host.

Joel was a lovely host and served us well. Lovely environment and live music.

The most awsome cigar lounge with live music in Little Havana in Miami’s Cuban community. It was four of us and Ania took fantastic care of us

Julio was a fantastic bar tender, super attentive. Great recommendations on cigars as they are made in house!! If you’re in the area go check them out & did I forget to mention the live music.

Great music and nice drinks. Eduany was awesome; very polite, respectful, and professional. Definitely recommend!

Where to start, my friends and I had a wonderful experience at Guantanamera, as we absolutely brought the party into their establishment. However, from beginning to end, the staff was a bit off-putting. They were cordial, but not as friendly as I've experienced in other establishments. We wanted to peek our heads inside and enjoy the music, and the usher made sure we understood that everyone needed to purchase a drink to enter. That was fine, but the way it was continually emphasized was a bit frustrating. The bartender near the restroom was a bit overwhelming, Toward the end of the night, one of our group members accidentally dropped their beer, and the bartender acted excessively, questioning if it was intentional, which was unnecessary. What she should’ve done was offer him another beer, free of charge. She literally sold it to him Not even two minutes before it fell. Prior to that incident, after we had purchased our drinks, we decided to sit at one of the tables, and the same bartender made a point to tell us we couldn't sit there because we ordered from the bar And had to stay at the bar. This seemed unreasonable, especially since it was a Thursday night, and the venue was not crowded at all. Mind you, I ordered a piña colada, which I thought was excessively overpriced. A little under $20, and she didn’t even put a cherry on it. I had to ask for one. Despite these issues, the establishment itself was great, the music was amazing, and the performers hyped up the audience and had great voices. We brought the energy and left around midnight. The DJ continued to play great music, but we decided to leave around 12:30 AM.

Great place. Great food great drink. We loved it. It was our first stop here!! You have got to come !

Very cool place. Exactly what I hoped to find in Little Havana. They have a big selection of their own line of cigars of various styles and tobacco origin, live Cuban jazz, cool decor inside, and a patio if you’d rather smoke in open air.

This place is an entire vibe! Loved my visit here. The atmospheric, the drinks, cigar selection, the live music and service were topnotch. If I lived closer this would be a place my future hubby and I frequent often. Joel was amazing and so friendly and accommodating. When we return to Miami, we will be back! 10 out of 10. Make sure you check this place out on your visit to Little Havana.

OMG this place is AMAZING. I live in Dallas and was there for a day. We have nothing like this place in Dallas if we did OMG it would be so bust and GREAT!!!! I want to go back for my birthday in January.

Super fun place, with a great atmosphere and live music. There's a wide variety of drinks and the customer service is exceptional.

Very nice atmosphere with excellent music. Our waiter Joel was super friendly and made us feel special.

I had such a great experience here! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxed. The music, lighting, and overall vibe made it a perfect spot to unwind after a long day.Joel have a amazing customer service.

Nicole has been exceptional in her service, let me sit in the couch though I was all by myself. Amazing place with live music! Would definitely be a regular customer

Guantanamera Cigars is an absolute gem. An incredible selection of cigars paired with well-crafted cocktails, all wrapped in authentic Cuban vibes that make you want to slow down and stay awhile. Jose, the owner and master cigarist, is genuinely welcoming and deeply knowledgeable—exactly the kind of host you hope to meet in a place like this. And Ania, who has been taking care of guests for years, elevates the entire experience with her warmth and attention to detail. She makes every visit feel personal and memorable. Whether you’re a seasoned cigar lover or just looking for a great atmosphere, Guantanamera delivers every time. A must-visit.

I had a great experience here. The live music created an amazing vibe, the cocktails were tasty, and there’s a nice selection of cigars. The staff were attentive and welcoming the whole time. Perfect spot for a fun night out.

Joel was an amazinggg bartender. He made sure I was good my whole experience. His service was immaculate and I will be visiting again.

Visited on a Monday afternoon and the vibes were amazing! Best Margaritas on the strip and best Cigars!

Great music, great drinks, and the owner went out of his way to make sure we had a great time! He brought over a personally recommended cigar for my husband and told him all about the wrapping process and his history of rolling cigars!

Joel made our night! Excellent service! We’ll be back

Great spot! The live music, lively atmosphere, and authentic Cuban vibe made the night really fun. The drinks were delicious (especially the mojitos), and the service was friendly and attentive. Definitely a great place to relax, enjoy good music, and have a nice time.

We are so pleased with service and hospitality from the owner and also Luis our host he was amazing. I will highly recommend this place to anyone in town or from a far. We come from Houston Texas where hospitality is in our Blood but let me tell y'all I felt like I was at home. Definitely coming back. Thank s for making our trip to Little Havana a memorable event truly appreciated y'all The Lopez

We had a wonderful time, listening to live music and leidi the waitress gave us such a great service! 100% recommended!

What a great atmosphere, Mike and Julio were friendly and quick service. Mike is very knowledgeable person with Cigars. It was nice to try their private cigar. If you are in little Havana this is a must stop.

Spent a fabulous time listening to live music. Our waiter, Joel was excellent. Very charming, friendly and entertaining highly recommend.

A special thank you to Nieve for the outstanding service. Her attention, friendliness, and timing were perfect the entire evening. She made sure we always had what we needed, checked in consistently without being overbearing, and kept everything flowing smoothly. Service like that genuinely elevates the whole experience.

I had a fantastic experience thanks to Julio, the bartender. He was very kind and attentive, making my husband and me feel like regulars. It's rare to find someone so pleasant and professional at the same time. I highly recommend a visit!

Our server, Julio was amazing, local atmosphere. Awesome drinks so much fun! Loved our visit to Guantanamera. He made us feel at home. Can’t ask for more than that. Awesome evening! Thanks Julio!

Everything was great, but Julio made it unforgettable! From the moment we sat down, he was welcoming, attentive, and so kind. He immediately made us feel comfortable and taken care of. He checked on us at the perfect times — not too much, not too little — and made sure every detail was just right. Julio was knowledgeable about the menu, gave great recommendations, and answered all of our questions with patience and a smile. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests and takes pride in what he does. His positive attitude and professionalism truly elevated our entire dining experience. It’s rare to receive service that stands out this much, and Julio absolutely exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Julio, for the amazing service — you’re the best! We’ll definitely be coming back and asking for you again. 🌟

Amazing Cigar Bar in little Havana, great house cigars, fabulous bar. Bar food available... Live Music in Bar.. Very professional staff. A great location to watch the world walk by the smoking terrac…

Nicole the waiter was amazing! Wonderful restaurant with a classic Latino style. Good music and vibes are like Havana. I liked it.

The staff is super helpful with picking out cigars and there was a great atmosphere with couples and families. The cost for the hand-rolled cigars was $15 each or five for $60. We drank Cuban coffee,…

If you like really loud music then this is the place. They have a mix of live band and DJ playing retros. Live band was good playing some high energy music. DJ played my favorite Boney M remixes. Service was slightly slow. Had the best Miami mule here. Well made. The place is not so big and can get noisey.

Great outdoor patio area to sit and hangout in Little Havana. Perfect location to smoke a cigar, enjoy a few drinks, and do some people watching. Live music is good, but can be a bit too loud. Unfortunately the mojito is not nearly as good as advertised.

Good drinks except for appetizers the orders were small for the price you pay. The workers friendly and the musicians awesome. The owner of the bar has his small cigar making there too but he was not friendly. I dislike it when people do not try to make conversation maybe if you do you will sell more.

What a fantastic spot to unwind! Grab a seat on the porch, soak in the lively atmosphere of famous Calle 8, and watch the world go by while enjoying the rhythm of authentic Cuban música. Pair the experience with a hand-rolled cigar and a refreshing cold drink, and let the vibrant Latino spirit take over. A must-visit for anyone looking to embrace the true essence of Little Havana!

Good service. I don't like so much the food and the prices are high. I don't know why a lady came every 2 minutes to change the napkins from the drinks.

As we were walking by, we heard the music from outside. The place was packed, and we were able to be by the bar if we ordered a minimum of 2 drinks, which wasn't a problem. As soon as we were inside the music went from Spanish to 70s, 80s etc. I know there were alot of tourists so I get it, that's what they like. When we were finally about to leave, a man said the best was yet to come. So we stayed and them there was a band but the music was still an oldie. The drinks were good. The bartender and the man at the door were polite.

The waitresses deserve all the compliments, they were extremely kind and warm. The food was excellent, and so were the drinks. The live music was amazing, and the atmosphere was really nice too, with great lighting and decor. I think the only issue was possibly the person in charge of the place. I was sitting with my friend when what seemed to be the owner started yelling uncontrollably at everyone around, all the staff. I’m not sure what the reason was, it wasn’t clear, but the fact that it happened right in front of everyone had a big, negative impact. You could feel the discomfort not only among the employees, but also the other customers.

Great place. I love the music; the drinks, the food, and the service. I did not like that the server wanted me to pay double the tip. He was telling me that the gratuity 18% that gets charged automatically to your bill didn’t include the bartender tips. I felt pressured by him to select additional 18, 20, or 22%. I didn’t do it because that is wrong and any additional tip should be optional after they let you know that tip is already included, but they don’t tell you the tip is included and I think they hope you miss it so you can tip again. Management should be on top of this.

Horrible place. They kicked us out for dancing with a drink in our hand. Seems like a stupid reason to kick someone out at a club. Find somewhere else on Calle ocho

I had a bad experience with the waitress shooting a water Gun on my hair and Face on Saturday JANUARY 10 ,I went out with friends for drinks and dance to this place so far everything was going Good with the band that playing amazing music we were dancing and making friends Until they are to shoot that water Gun ,we didn't appreciate it cause we had gone to hair salon to do our hair and these waitresses starting throwing water on our face and hair it was a disaster we just had to live the place and never come back
