Havana Restaurant

Nice building, good service, average food. Too expensive for us $$$$. Las mariquitas were delicious. The frijoles colorados were nice. The fried pork was moist and tender, needed a little salt. The ropa vieja tasted too much like tomato sauce. El cortadito was bitter. La crema catalana was eggy and overcooked. $45 for a carafe of Sangria!

I was driving by and noticed the walk-up ordering window, so I turned around and decided to stop, and I’m so glad I did. I enjoyed a chicken empanada, a guava and cheese pastry, and a croquette. Everything was tasty and satisfying. The service was super friendly, which made the experience even better. It turned into such a simple but enjoyable little moment, sitting on their bench, eating my food, and watching the traffic go by. Sometimes the unplanned stops are the best ones.

When I got there to pick up my take out order the 2 women at the counter completely ignored me for 5 min, with no other customer at the window they were to deep into there conversation. It took an another lady by the food window to yell at them to take care of me. Issue 2 when I got home to eat my food there was mold in my salad on my tomatoes and carrots. A serious food and health violation. I’ll be contacting someone to investigate this case. Beware and check your food.

Delicious food. Good prices. Cool basement seating along with nice music and good service. Had vaca frita con moros y tostones. The garlic sauce with the tostones was delicious. Bread served with meal was well done too: soft and well seasoned.

I’m always on the hunt for a good Cuban restaurant to satisfy my cravings, and Havana Restaurant definitely did not disappoint! The batido de mango was absolutely delicious, and the bistec empanizado was perfection…crispy, flavorful, and just how it should be. All the food was amazing, and the service was friendly and welcoming. I believe this was our second visit, though the first was many years ago, and it was just as great as I remembered. I’ll definitely be back! 🇨🇺✨
