Lovely little restaurant with delish Cuban food. Their beef empanadas were plentiful and good but could have a bit more seasoning (to my personal liking). Their cheese empanadas were simply delicious. We also ordered chicharron de puerco (fried pork morsels) which were plentiful and very good. We ordered “lechon asado” with rice and red beans and a side of ripe plantains. Let me tell you, the lechon was so tender it was perfection! I ordered a steak milanese which was plentiful. We ended up filling up with the lechon but everything was fresh and on point. What a nice surprise of a restaurant. Loved the red walls and decoration. Everybody was courteous and welcoming. Oh they have parking on the back of the building with a back entrance as well. What a good experience. For dessert we had flan and it was moist and prepared to perfection. Definitely a must if you are in the area and looking for Cuban cuisine .

This was my first time having Cuban food and it didn’t disappoint! I got the pork chunks appetizer and oxtail entree with rice and fried plantains. The highlight was definitely the oxtail — the sauce was perfectly seasoned, and really felt like a warm homemade meal!

By far the best guac and chips I have ever had. My daughter was amazed at how fresh and delicious the food was. I have only been here once but will definitely be going back and I highly recommend it to everyone. Kinda makes me feel bad to say that this place gives cuban moms a run for their money.

Use to be one of my favorites but the last couple times I get what I usually get which is the Cuban Chinese fried rice with shrimp and it’s been terrible. Shells on some of the shrimps. Rice half done. I just called and complained and basically got told I well. No credit no nothing and I have been going here for years. Until now!

Just tried Havana’s Cafe. Delicious Cuban sandwiches sweet bananas and smashed bananas. Generous portions. Fries were crispy. Delivery was late but didn’t effect the warmth of our food. Definitely coming back.

Amazing hidden gem in Edgewater. Food is unbelievable, very authentic and flavors just like fireworks. Amazing staff and service, Willy is just alway ready to serve you at the guest level. Special thanks for new owners Alex and Jesus for such a wonderful neighborhood joint.

I ordered 2 oxtails for $50 and they gave me just bones and sauce. There was no meat on the oxtails. Just a couple of meet slices in the sauce. I’ve been eating here for years and called to tell them and even offered to send a picture and they refused to let me send a picture and responded I don’t know what to tell you. They ripped me off as I paid cash and can’t get my money back. Don’t order from here.
