What People Are Saying About Habana Bar

In Short
The bustling Sixth Street locale draws downtown professionals and hotel guests with iconographic Cuban décor and its unique menu. Decidedly not Tex-Mex, it features dishes made with pork, chicken, plantains, yucca and Cuban white rice. Diners enjoy table service inside or on the lush patio courtyard, consuming imported Latin American beers, mojitos, rum and other tropical drinks. The revolution lives on after 10pm on weekends when revelers take over the downstairs bar and courtyard.

I've been to Habana probably 7-10 times and have had a great experience each time. The food is great, especially the Jibarito and anything with the pineapple salsa. Service isn't outstanding, but it's not bad either. Sitting out back with the fans on the porch is a great way to sip some mojitos and enjoy your dinner. They're worth it, give them a try.

If you have never had cuban food, this is the place to try it at. Not only is it amazing food, but it is reasonably priced, too. The setting of the restaurant is great and the service is really good. Yuca con mojo and Ropa Vieja are my top two choices when I come eat here.

I ordered what was billed as a Pineapple Margarita at the 6th St locale. What I got was half a cup of pineapple juice with a weak shot of tequila and something like looked like half a glass of foam (?) on top - foam? It wasn't sweet, it was bitter. The foam settled. I asked the waiter to take it back and ordered a Mojito. Said waiter charged me for the Pineapple Disaster and didn't bother to tell me it would not be taken off my bill. Talked to the manager who was rude and implied I had drank half the P.D. because I was a cheap drunk - nice. I told him I would not ever come back and did not leave a tip. Had I known they would charge me for the P.D., I would have left before ordering the mediocre food. A while a go they burned down. I certainly hope this never happens again. That would be a tragedy.
