Cafe La Trova

Street scene along Calle Ocho in Little Havana, Miami

Little Havana

Why it matters: Cafe La Trova is the vision of Cuban-born maestro cantinero Julio Cabrera, who keeps alive the flamboyant Havana bartending tradition he learned back home, earning the bar a spot on North America’s 50 Best Bars. Expect flawless daiquiris and Cuban classics, live trova and son music, and dinner from a Cuban kitchen. Post up at the bar to watch the cantineros work.
