After a long day the drinks here were delicious, coconut mojito with a sugar cane stick so yum. We had the spicy mussels and the calamari both were phenomenal. The entrees were huge and came out pretty quick. We had the chicken with yellow rice and a side of sweet plantains, steak with yellow rice, arroz con pollo -chicken rice dish well seasoned and was very tasty! All dishes came with black beans or a salad.
Our server was so gracious and accommodating, she went above and beyond for us. Both my aunt's phones died and she took them while we were eating to charge them for us. The staff was so friendly. The bathroom was clean and actually smelled great which may seem like a small thing but in Manhattan this was great. All in all a great experience.

We came here for an after work happy hour and had a great time. The drinks were very good as well as the food.
I highly recommend the guacamole. We kept ordering more because of how delicious it was!

We were visiting New York city for the first time and we stayed in the Manhattan area. This place was just 3-4 min walking distance from our hotel. We are Cubans and we were curious to try the Cuban food from a NY restaurant ????
The service was great, the food was awesome. The food portions were big. Only thing I didn’t like was the croquetas, they didn’t have any flavor and were a little bit pricy for just 2 croquettes. One night we had the special Rib Eye, and the second night we had the churrasco. Both were delicious!
We went there to have dinner 2 of the 4 nights we were staying, so I think that say’s it all. We simply loved it. We will definitely be coming back if we visit NY again.

Good price for the atmosphere and service. Good food, too. Been here several times so as many other places in Manhattan, this place can be pretty crowded especially at the rush hours for dinner and drinking time ????. I would definitely visit again when I am back in town. I love how thoughtful the restaurant is with its food. I love the mussels! ☺️

The shrimp tacos were great. I loved the citric variation. I also enjoyed the ceviche. The place is nice, the music was upbeat and I felt welcome. I would certainly come back.

Came here last week and tried peirna de cerdo (pork shank) and ropa vieja (roasted beef with rice and beans). The pork shank is amazingly prepared, juicy and tender. In comparison, tops vieja wasn’t impressive given the similar price it costs. Service and vibe are nice!

Havana NY is a beautiful Cuban restaurant with an amazing dining atmosphere, upbeat music, and exquisite food. The proprietor is an extremely kind gentleman and the staff are superb. You must stop in to Havana if you love flavor food and phenomenal service.

Food: 3/5
Service: 4/5
Ambiance: 4/5
Overall: I've been here a couple of times so it might have just been a bad cooking night.
The extended review....
Food:
Ropa Vieja - 3/5 - The last time I was here this wasn't quite so bad. The meat was a little bit dry this go around. The dish proportion overall is pretty good though coming with rice and beans.
House Salad - 3/5 - This dish was pretty standard fare.
Service: 4/5 - Friendly and attentive service.
Ambiance: 4/5 - A nice place with a good amount of seating.

Havana *nails it* if you are craving Latin-inspired comforting dishes! Everything was delicious. If I could change anything, it would just be to use riper plantains for the maduros. Drinks were tasty as well.

Great place for dinner. Laura V was a great server. Friendly professional and took time to explain items on menu. Food is delicious. Dined outside in a charming set up. Had fish tacos, yellow rice bowl with shrimp and an assortment of broccoli avocado plantains and yucca. Flan to finish off the meal.
