La Divina Pastora is a restaurant in the Morro Cabaña complex, at the foot of El Morro in Havana. Its position above the bay gives you a view across the coastline and Old Havana, especially around sunset. Lobster is the standout order, with lobster bisque also on the menu. Start with warm breadsticks served with guacamole and butter, then save room for a rum-flavoured lava cake. Prices are on the high side, so the setting is part of the appeal.
A table above Havana Bay
The restaurant sits in the Morro Cabaña complex at the foot of El Morro, overlooking the bay and Old Havana. Its position makes dinner here a chance to watch the light change over the coastline. The setting is especially suited to an evening meal, and the restaurant has been recommended as a stop after the cañonazo at La Cabaña.
What to order
Lobster is the clearest choice. It is kept alive in a tank on site, and the menu has included lobster bisque as well as whole lobster dishes. Warm breadsticks with guacamole and butter make a distinctive start to the meal. For dessert, look for lava cake with a hint of rum. Prices are on the high side, so factor that into your plans.
