The chicken and rice dish is a must-try, along with the Cuban sandwich and midnight, which are quick and light options. The restaurant features a clean, welcoming atmosphere suitable for families before 9 pm, transforming into a lively nightclub vibe after. Visitors highly recommend returning to enjoy the variety of foods available at Havana Jax.

Recently, customers have praised the amazing food and attentive service. One family celebrating a birthday appreciated Miguel, who shared the daily specials and emphasized the freshness of the dishes. They loved the Cuban sandwich, el churrasco, chicharrones, and tostones, calling the steak the most tender they’ve ever tasted.

Another group of coworkers enjoyed a great lunch special and noted the friendly atmosphere and excellent service, with the waiter keeping their glasses full and offering sample sizes of the special meal. They also recommended trying the Tres Leches.

A couple visiting for lunch appreciated the slow pace, which made for a relaxed experience. They found everything fresh and delicious, with attentive and quick service. Guests can easily navigate the large open floor layout, making it wheelchair accessible.

Recent reviews mention that the Cuban sandwich is very good and authentic, though one customer felt it lacked some authentic flavor. The staff, especially Ruby, bring positive energy, and the owner, Silvia, is friendly and welcoming. Many guests say the food is the best Cuban food they've ever eaten, and some are excited to return for upcoming events at the lounge.
