Little Cuba is a great little bar that is located right in the middle of Sinchon. The owner of this place, his wife and all the workers are super friendly and warm and the atmosphere in the place is great. All the customers are super friendly as well and you can easily just go in there, talk to anyone and make friends easily. It is very relaxing and cool place to go if you have nothing to do in the evening.
I have been to this place a few times, and one of the things that really makes this place stand out among all the restaurants in Sinchon is the quality of the food. The food here is absolutely delicious and that is do to extreme attention to detail on the part of the owner. Nearly everything that the guy serves is imported or made fresh and he seems to go to great lengths to get all of the ingredients he needs to make it taste just like it does at home. He does not cheap out on any aspect of the dish.
There are a number of Cuban dishes such as picadillo and bistec, but the one that I really thought stood out as one of the best was the ropa vieja. Give that a try when you go. Cuban sandwiches seem to be hitting a trendy in Korea and I feel like that is all I have been eating lately as there is a new Cuban sandwich place everywhere I turn, but this place makes a Cuban sandwich that is far beyond any other place that I have tried. With huge meat portions that are marinated to perfection the flavor is absolutely amazing.
Finally the owner imports a ton of alcohol directly from Cuba and sells shots at a very reasonable 3,000 won per a shot. When I tasted the high quality Cuban rum (it was Legedario) it really made me feel great after drinking all the terrible tasting alcohol that they usually have in Korea. It also gives you a great feeling. The prices of the food are generally around 12 - 16,000 won and the portions are not huge, but that is because meticulous attention to detail goes into every serving. I highly recommend this place.
