“I placed an order for food for my wife's birthday, after having called several places, no one did that service hours before but two days in advance, they made it for me, 15 meals at a fantastic price, delicious palate, good service, typical of a Cuban meal, God bless you fellow countrymen and in advance, what quality there is in the house, the cook I recommend, good seasoning and very friendly, thank you for people like you, we will return soon if God allows it.“
“I used to work near here and I came here every day for lunch for a year, and many times a week for many other years. Al, the owner, has really put his heart and soul into this place since I left work, 13 years ago. (I knew Al and his two sons who worked with him back then so well they threw a birthday party for me one year!) He's added a bunch of vegetarian options to the menu since I last was there. He used to just make them off-menu for me, and those he made are now on the menu, along with a mess of others. Not only is the black bean soup with rice amazing (add a serving of Cuban toast and there's a great lunch!), but they also make a great veg Cuban (that's simply a Cuban without the meat. Some people might find that boring, but I think it's a great sandwich with Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard).They also have a bunch of Cuban desserts to choose from, including guava and cheese pastries, rice pudding, & bread pudding. I believe these are all homemade, so they might not have everything every day.Cuban & Mexican sodas and beers are available for sale here, too.When my husband, his brother, and I ate here the other day there were a lot of ghosts here. I kept waiting for people I know to walk in, some of them are no longer living. Al always says "Hi" to me when I show up. He cares about his customers.I love going to Cafe Havana. My husband loves going here even more than I do, and he gets out of the house and over to that side of town more often than I do. He likes to rub it in whenever he gets to go here for a Cuban and black beans & rice. I may have to start telling him to bring some home. That's what I used to do for him... I'd bring some home after work. I think he owes me, right?In summary: This is a GREAT place to eat! The owner is a wonderful person who cares about his restaurant and his customers. If you haven't been here yet, what's stopping you?? Go, NOW! Tell Al that Laura sent you.“
“Excellent food, the dishes are delicious, I tried the pork masita and the fried cow and I saw the dishes from other tables delicious, to take away I ordered the suckling pig sandwich which is extremely large and super delicious, the smoothies were super good, I felt very well cared for , we will be back very soon.“
“Wow!!! Delicious food, great service, SUPER nice people. We all had something different so we could sample more of the menu. Carne guisada (beef stew), Mojo pork, Chuleta Frita (fried pork chop) all were sooo good. We are already planning our next visit to sample appetizers, sandwiches and desserts. People if you have been looking for some very tasty Cuban/Puerto Rican food (which is seriously lacking out east IMO) GO!!!!!!“
