Havana Style Cafe & Gallery - Toronto

LUMA is situated within the TIFF building and offers a stunning patio with beautiful views of downtown Toronto.

I recently went to Luma with my partner to celebrate his birthday. I decided to try the soup of the day, which was roasted pepper soup, and it was delicious.

The ambiance is what sets this restaurant apart! We chose to dine on the rooftop terrace for a breathtaking view of the CN Tower and Downtown Toronto, and it did not disappoint.

Finally ended up trying this restaurant which happens to be a few blocks away from my house. The atmosphere is amazing and the sandwiches are fantastic. I got the steak sandwich and my dad got the chicken. We had half of each and both were delicious. I also found out that on Fridays and Saturdays they have a night club in the back and I will definitely check it out. I will also come back to try different items on the menu.

Iris is very friedly and took my reservation. We ordered meat croquettes, meat empanadas, tostones (fried green plaintain) and cubanos, the original Cuban sandwiches (created in Tampa by the cigar makets in 1860). A Cuban espresso made of Cubita coffee was perfect. We will come back for Spanish paella, ropa vieja (shredded meat) and congri ( black beans with rice).
