MadCubaVMarista em Funchal

What a find. This is a great little bar/restaurant. Great food and super drinks. The staff were excellent. The food very good and great value. In a very competative market this stands out. Slow cooked meats in various rum cuban spiced flavours with rice and beans plus cocktails. Come on. We had 2xMains, 2xDesserts and a litre of cuban sangria for less than €50. The young lady front of house with the pink hair, great. Try it you wont be disappointed.

A few hours after we landed in Madeira on Sept 26, we dashed over to MadCuba for delicious drinks and savory dinner. Mauricio was away on business so conversational Andre was mixing tasty drinks at the bar. Adriana continued to be personable, charming and witty. MadCuba's newest staff member was kind and friendly Jessica, who taught us how to pronounce "Bahia Guantanamera". The happy hours drinks, especially the Caipirhina, were tasty and rich. Our mains, Roasted Chicken Creole Way and Slow Roasted Pulled Pork, came with basmati rice, black beans made the Cuban way and MadCuba's style crisps. The sun was shining. Music was in the air. We were in heaven. We returned to MadCuba for four more times, the last of which was Oct 2 for more pulled pork entrees and happy hours drinks, notably Caipirhina and Bahia Guantanamera, a delightful mix of gin, Brisa maca, blue Curacao and grapefruit slice). MadCuba is FA-BU-LOUS! Can't wait to return in December when Mauricio will have the newly and brilliantly designed MadCuba T-shirt available for purchase. Many thanks again for your hospitality and joie de vivre! All the best, J and C
