About El Sótano
Step into a coral-and-turquoise lounge that feels like a Havana terrace—woven rattan, tropical plants, and slow‑spinning fans set a languid mood while Afro‑Cuban jazz hums in the background. The room’s vintage glow and seaside colors frame a menu of bold, comforting dishes that taste of citrus, smoke, and bright herbs. It’s an escapist neighborhood spot built for long evenings, shared plates, and cocktails that lean into island tradition.
