Cuban Revolution Restaurant
50 Aborn St, Providence, RI 02903
The Cuban Revolution had a number of iterations in its lifetime in Providence, from several locations downtown, and in Olneyville, before they fell by the wayside.
Those close of the downtown location led to their placement on GoLocal's not hot list by Dan Lawlor in 2013, for the following:
The Westminster developer and the Cuban Revolution restaurateur have both done good for the city. Too bad they couldn't come to an agreement on Cuban Revolution's downcity location. Morabito choose to close suddenly and left for Olneyville. Chace has an open storefront. Not a great week for either.
