From the day it opened, Asia de Cuba has been one of New York’s liveliest and most popular restaurants. Under the direction of acclaimed restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow, Asia de Cuba serves an innovative menu that blends the best of Asian and Latino cuisines. The setting for the social and culinary fireworks is a soaring and beautifully theatrical Philippe Starck-designed space featuring a 30-foot long illuminated marble communal table that runs through the main dining area, a 15-foot tall photo lightbox featuring a “running waterfall,” ultra-comfortable high-backed white banquettes and cozy living room areas with fireplaces.
