Restaurant Review
Rebecca's is an intimate Cuban Fusion BYOB that is a popular choice for couples on a date or for celebrating a romantic occasion.
The Cuban fusion menu is creatively prepared using quality ingredients, though dominated by meat dishes
The interior has a charming Cuban/Caribbean flair with two small dining rooms. The softly lit rooms have tables set with linens and walls adorned with Cuban accents to provide a cozy, intimate romantic setting. The smaller dining area is an alcove ideal for a more intimate setting or for a small group party.
The larger dining area also provides access to an attractive glass enclosed garden patio/rock garden that backs up against "the cliff" and can be used year-round.
In the warmer months, the doors open for outdoor dining
Rebecca's is not recommended for kids.
Rebecca's is open five days/week, Wednesday - Sunday for dinner
If you are from outside the neighborhood, set your GPS as finding it may be a challenge. Rebecca's is tucked away between a hillside and a condominium complex.
