About Havana Kitchen

Havana Kitchen in San Diego is a hidden gem offering some of the best Cuban food in the area. The dishes are flavorful, especially the frito options, and the Cuban coffee is a must-try. The atmosphere is lively with fun music, creating a cozy and inviting environment. The staff is friendly and helpful, providing excellent service. They offer great vegetarian options like the Guajiro plate, as well as delicious meat dishes such as Ropa Vieja and Lechon. The Cuban sandwich is well composed, though some reviews mention that it could have a crispier outer texture, which can be improved with longer pressing. The Cuban Latte is highly recommended, made with fresh ingredients and a perfect balance of flavors. For sides, sweet plantains are served, adding a nice balance to savory dishes. The interior is clean, and portions are generous, making it a perfect spot for lunch or a casual meal. Reasonable prices and friendly staff make Havana Kitchen a favorite for both locals and visitors.
