    In the evening, there are music and dance performances here. When we were there, a young junior dance troupe was there that have properly given gas. The cocktails are good, the prices still in order.

    Music space to watch dancers and learn Cuban dance. Very well located, in the historic part of Trinidad.

    Open late, typical music show but has no soft drinks. Dine before you watch the show and enjoy.
