The Cuban restaurant Bonito y Sabroso, located in the heart of the Latin Quarter of Paris, has become the new meeting place for artists and lovers of Creole cuisine. In recent months, figures such as Cuban singer Wampi and reggaeton artist Yomil Hidalgo had already stopped by, but it was the recent visit of Bad Bunny that ultimately put the small establishment on the global map.
Content creator Dele GT revealed the Puerto Rican artist's stop in an Instagram video, where he mentioned that the singer tried various traditional dishes and praised the culinary offerings of the place. That mention was enough for reservations to skyrocket, turning the family-friendly and discreet restaurant into one of the most sought-after by tourists, Latinos, and fans of Conejo Malo.
From the restaurant itself, they confirmed the experience on their social media, explaining that they were selected by the production team of the Bad Bunny concert to provide catering, as there were no Puerto Rican restaurants in Paris. They shared that the artist and his team enjoyed the Creole flavors and congratulated them on the authentic taste, very similar to that of Puerto Rico. No photos were taken, as the singer requested to maintain his privacy, although the Bonito y Sabroso team stated that it was an honor to serve him and cherish that memory.
The establishment, run by a Cuban family, has been defending Creole cuisine in the French capital for years. On their menu, the house chickpeas, ropa vieja, croquettes, tostones, and the classic palomilla steak stand out, all favorites among Latin visitors. But the dish that arouses the most curiosity is the crocodile filet, an exotic option that surprises even the most adventurous palates.
The bar has also gained prominence. Hemingway mojitos, fruit daiquiris, and the Saoko—inspired by Rosalía's success—have become as viral as Bad Bunny's visit itself, leading to marathon shifts for the bartenders at the venue. On social media, customers describe the restaurant as "a little piece of Cuba in Paris," highlighting the warm atmosphere, family-like service, and the feeling of dining at home, even when thousands of kilometers away from the Island.
The scale of the performer from Tití me preguntó repeats a familiar pattern: whenever Bad Bunny shows up in a small restaurant, visits and sales skyrocket. This time, the effect reached Bonito y Sabroso, a spot of Creole flavor that is now experiencing its best moment thanks to a diner who simply wanted to enjoy a good meal… and ended up turning every bite into a trend.
