Emelina is an intimate 16-seat chef’s counter offering a single tasting menu in West Palm Beach’s up and coming Flamingo Park district. At Emelina, Cuban cuisine is not recreated as it is known today; instead, it is reimagined through a speculative lens: What might Cuban food have become if it had been allowed to evolve without the constraints of communism—shaped instead by freedom of movement, global dialogue, creativity, and abundance.
“Wow! Beautifully crafted dishes that taste as good as they look! Each bite was a bomb of flavors that work very well together, I even tried things I thought I would never eat. Definetly recommend! It was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary.”

A special thank you to Chef Osmel for the fantastic cuisine. The menu carries a subtle and beautiful nod to Cuban flavors, presented with creativity and sophistication.

“Absolutely amazing, from the atmosphere, service and food. Each dish was a perfect representation of Cuban cuisine re-imagined. All the dishes were fantastic, however , some of my personal favorite that were absolute divine were the Sebastian silver oyster and yuca, and the cocada baracoense. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!”
