Editorial Review for Habana Cuba – by Laura Reiley and Citysearch Staff
In Short
Two levels of seating include an outdoor patio and two private rooms. Portions are a lumberjack's dream. Tostones take a little time to prepare, but the fried green plantains are addictive. The garlic grilled chicken has serious fans, as does the slow roasted pork. Like every Cuban grandmother makes, the chicken soup is restorative. There are also dishes that hail more from Brazil or Puerto Rico, including the savory red beans.

Habana Cuba is amazing. Although I've only been here once, I'm going to go ahead and declare this one of my favorite restaurants. A friend of mine from Miami who claims to really know her Cuban food raved about this place being the best in the San Jose. Needless to say, she was dead-on. Off appetizers alone I was already full. The plate I ordered was the seafood cioppino. It came with all the goodies: clams, shrimp, lobster, and bass that literally just melts in your mouth. The plate came out pipping hot but was so good it didn't stop me from biting into it. Another recommendation would be my husband's dish, the lechon de la Cubana. Ever since I've gone I've been telling all my friends about my experience. Nice ambiance, huge portions on food, very attentive staff, I'd go back to Habana Cuba in a heartbeat.

I have been going to Habana Cuba for nearly 20 years, the food is excelent! The service prompt, the admosphere is also great Jennifer and the crew at habana are excelent at what they do. If you are looking to a Snobby restaurant this is NOT the one for you, if you are looking for a family experience with nice music, descent wine selection, good imported beers from latin america and a large meal this is the place for you! Love Habana Cuba!
Pros: Great Eating Place, lots of food great taste
Cons: probably the location.
