Yummy but also very affordable and authentic Cuban food in Miami, where you can also avoid the tourists. The restaurant can get a little loud, even at lunch because it echos a bit. But other than that, the mojito with refreshing and the palomilla well cooked.

It's not easy in Miami to find a restaurant that is good without the prices being excessive.But here it is. In addition, the pinot gris by the glass was very good.Good family cooking and the big plus is a warm and smiling welcome.A good evening

Delicious old school Cuban cuisine playing to an absolutely packed restaurant of regulars. This is the real deal. Tasty, perfectly cooked, nicely plated, original steady service that doesn't rush you but is still responsive. There's a long lunch menu that's a great.

Sometimes, the best culinary adventures lie just around the corner. Habana Vieja Restaurant transported me to the vibrant streets of Cuba without ever leaving my neighborhood. From the warm welcome to the last bite of flavorful food, it was an experience that had me yearning for more.The aroma of spices and garlic greeted me as I stepped into the cozy space. The décor, with its bright accents and vintage Cuban posters, immediately set the mood. I felt like I had stumbled into a bustling little eatery tucked away in the heart of Havana.The menu is a love letter to classic Cuban cuisine. I opted for the Ropa Vieja, a traditional dish of slow-cooked, and fried, shredded beef. The beef was fork-tender and bursting with savory goodness, a perfect match for the sweet fried plantains and perfectly seasoned black beans and rice.My dining companion raved about their fresh fish of the day. It was pan-seared to perfection, with a crispy skin and flaky, delicate flesh. Every bite spoke of quality ingredients and a skilled hand in the kitchen.No Cuban meal is complete without a taste of something sweet, and Habana Vieja didn't disappoint. We shared a generous slice of flan, its silky custard texture and caramelized sugar topping the perfect ending to our meal.The service throughout was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall warmth of the experience. Habana Vieja isn't just about the food – though it's certainly delicious – it's about transporting you to another place and time. If you're craving authentic Cuban flavors and a dose of vibrant island spirit, Habana Vieja is an absolute must-try.

Habana Vieja is a cute little restaurant with a vibrant Latin ambiance. You see a lot of old-school classy Cubans eating here, which is always a good sign. My go-to Cuban meal is the vaca frita, which is always enjoyable here. Pair it was an inexpensive house wine, and you have a good meal that is also affordable. The servers are usually nice and helpful. I would have given this restaurant a solid 4 except that unfortunately, the last couple of times I've gone, I've noticed overall it's not as clean as before. 1 time could be an anomaly, but 2 times is a pattern, so I won't be going back any time soon unless I hear that it's improved.

Excellent menu of traditional Cuban food like your abuela made, served in a cozy atmosphere, elevated by a wonderful collection of lively art works primarily by the Scull sisters. The venue has a separate bar area, private parking lot, moderate prices, and excellent service.

I ordered a soup and It looked and taste like a can't soup (it was cold too). Overall, I didn't like the food.
