My disappointment could be due to the false advertising of the place by people I knew. I was under Casa de la Musica is a nice place to hear great live music. But depending on your viewpoint, the large number of prostitutes don't make for a family night out. You probably wouldn't want to take a date either.
Otherwise, it's a good time. Went to the Casa de la Musica, Miramar, last saturday. They were featuring a great local band or so we heard.
You MUST get there early around 11pm when they open to get seating. Otherwise you will be standing in a very packed room. In short do you want company and pay for it? When we had waited 1,5 hours and the band had still not gone on , and the requests were now every seconds they dont take no for an answer the first time , we decided to leave without seeing the band.
Not a good experience. The music was fantastic. Adalberto Alvarez Y su Son was great and we enjoyed an excellent night. We had a great night out, we met some cubans who recommended it for salsa, so we went along without checking any listings.
We ended up not at a salsa night but a club night for young cubans, but it had loads of on stage entertainment and it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately not a night to remember on the night we went, although we had heard really good reviews.
