A few years ago we discovered Betsy's and couldn't wait to return. The bread is a highlight! My daughter had the short ribs that were recommended by our server, absolutely amazing. All 4 of our meals were fantastic and we couldn't recommend Betsy's more.

We had an amazing experience at Havana 1957. Our server was attentive and gave us some great recommendations. We shared the sampler tower and had cocktails, which was plenty of food for us. The only downside was I requested to be seated on the terrace, and we ended up on the sidewalk, which is not my favorite place to dine. But the service made up for it.
