Best restaurants in Varadero

Therefore, quite untypical food, according to Cuban standards, is also offered. This includes vegetarian or sometimes even vegan dishes.

Due to the many international visitors, the prices of most restaurants are quite high for Cuban gastronomy. If you like to eat well, you can roughly calculate with simple to medium Western prices.

While most of the eateries are located on the main avenue (Primera Avenidad), there are a few other restaurants worth mentioning, that are located a bit away from the main street.
