We came here for our work's Christmas 'do'. It wasn't our first choices, but we wanted a good night out, and Revolutión de Cuba looked good - on paper. The atmosphere was lively, any other night, it would be perfect. Unfortunately, it wasn't ideal for us; far too loud, so loud we couldn't hear what the person, who was sitting next to us, was saying. Usually on a 'work's night out', the ambient music is lower during meal times. I understand this is more of a club scene, and if we were just going to use it as such, it would be fine, and my ratings would reflect this, but as a Christmas meal venue, it did not work for us at this time. The food came out promptly, as we had pre-ordered that was to be expected, my starter was nice, except I wasn't expecting hot chilli peppers on my prawn cocktail. I suppose that was a Mexican twist on a Christmas classic! My slow cooked beef was chewy and not very warm, but my pudding - banana Eton Mess - was delicious! For the price, I would've expected better. All in all, as a Christmas meal venue, it did not work. As just a Christmas drinks night out, it would've been ok.
