Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

They have wonderful live music and fabulous Mojitos! When you visit, feel free to come in and take a seat. They will come by and take your order while you listen to the awesome music. The musicians are happy to share their maracas and dance with you! This is not just a shop and cigar store; it’s really a bar with music and fabulous people watching, too! And yes, they do speak English and offer food as well.

What a great place. Dropped in Friday for lunch and ended up staying several hours. Live music playing, great cigars, good Cuban sandwiches and refreshing mojitos. Open air seating out front is a great place to people watch.

Absolute must stop for cigars and booze - I spent 2 hours here chillin’ with the best cigars I found on Calle Ocho. Local beers were great and found my future cigar purchase place. Very high quality

I’m not a cigar smoker, but I have to say this place is charming just to hangout at. My hubby and a few friends enjoyed some cigars at this place. The staff are well versed when it comes to cigars. Must try if you’re into cigar smoking.

We finished off the night here at Guantanamera Cigars. We got the couch in the back, ordered mojitos and sat back and enjoyed the live music.

Being a cigar aficionado for a long time every chance I have while traveling is enjoying myself at a "Tabacalera" or cigar lounge. Visited the Guantanamera cigars in Miami's Calle 8 and what a delight it was.
Boss/owner Jose treated me like royalty from the get go. Smoked a Guantanamera Duo, full flavor, great burn, well balanced burn/smoke ratio.
Jose told me his story, we laugh, share cigar stories and Calle 8 stories. While in Miami is a must stop if you are into great cigars and amazing hospitality.
Muy, muy agradecido Jose and crew.

Guantanamera is truly an authentic experience, giving you a glimpse of the rich Cuban culture in a variety of ways.
It is so much more than just a cigar shop. The delicious complimentary coffee initiates it all. You are then treated so warmly as Erik, the cigar expert takes his time to find out who you are to match you with the best possible cigar to enjoy. (Yes, can you imagine a place that seeks to actually 'see' you for your real self?! Simply with the one purpose to provide you with the pure joy of a great cigar?)
Erik was truly a gracious host inviting us to enjoy our 'matched' cigars on the premises....a nice touch to the Guantanamera encounter. Friendly and engaging he even offered to teach us dominoes....Cuban style! For another hour we smoked, played, and just embraced all that is Cuban. Thank you Erik for the best Little Havana experience one can have!!!

Guantanamera Cigars is exactly what I was looking for on my recent visit to Little Havana. I'm a cigar aficionado and visited Cuba four years ago so I wanted to revisit the great experience I had then and found it here. Guantanamera rolls their own cigars and the quality/construction is excellent as they employ former Cuban factory cigar rollers. They also offer cuban coffee and have a bar. The owner and staff are super friendly, very accomodating and know their stuff. I had a terrific experience and bought a box of their cigars which, again, are excellent. I can't wait to go back on my next visit.

Thanks to Eric for his passion at what he makes and for educating us on what it takes to make a really great cigar. I hope that he and his partner Jose will get the justice that they deserve.
