About Us
In 2001, in a tiny 26 seat diner, the original Cuban Revolution opened its doors on Washington Street in Providence, Rhode Island. It did the unthinkable and mixed great food and drink in a setting ripe for political discourse. It quickly became a local hot spot and became a key player in the transformation of the DownCity Arts and Entertainment District.
