So good! The service was excellent. The atmosphere felt like family from the moment we walked in. It is funky for sure. Old fashioned like Havana itself. The menu wide ranging and very affordable for lunch. The cherry on the top being the great music background, raising the score from a 4 to a 4.5. If only it had outdoor seating with a pretty view!

We stopped by on New Years Day to grab some snacks. I had heard about this place several times and really wanted to try it. We pull up and see a long line of people standing in the sidewalk waiting to place an order at the walk up window. I knew this had to be a good sign. This restaurant is not located in a foot traffics location. These folks drove here to get in line. We ordered beef and chorizo con papa empanadas, flan and tres leches cake with two cafe con leche. The best flan I have ever eaten, empanadas were fantastic and the tres leches was the best I have had since moving to Florida. We will be back!

I said take me where you'd take your family.... I was on town to visit with a friend of 40+ years and his wife, of Cuban descent and they took me to Havana for a taste of Cuba. We enjoyed plantains, yucca, black beans & yellow rice, pork, chicken, beef, tres leches and a big pitcher of sangria. Great food and service.

If You Love Garlic Like I love Garlic. We joined good friends and our nephew for a trip south to a restaurant that has been one we have visited with some regularity. I was first introduced to Havana Restaurant back in the spring of 2011 when I visited as an assignment for my appearance on Check Please South Florida hosted by Michelle Bernstein. <br/><br/>Each time I have visited Havana Restaurant since that first trip I learned what it was to be treated like a rock star as the general manager Jeff Peterson would spot me and immediately our group was very well taken care of. He would head to the kitchen and grab Rafael Perez whose family has operated this amazing mecca in West Palm Beach for over 20 years who would also come out and say hello. Last night I was a little disappointed that Jeff was no longer there and my 15 minutes of fame had ended after a three year run. But even without being recognized each employee who touched our table was amazing in every way. While there was a wait for a table it did not take more than a few minutes before each of us had a wine or beer being raised to our lips.<br/><br/>If you like garlic, then I guarantee you that Havana Restaurant will become one of your favorite stops and I encourage you to run as fast as you can to the corner of Forest Hill Boulevard and US1. It doesn't matter what time of the day or night because the take out window is open 24 hours a day. The one word you will need to remember is Rojo and if you are like me you will use it often. Mas rojo por favor is my favorite saying at Havana without question and do they do it right. From what I can gather it is a mixture of garlic, olive oil, and lime juice that tastes good on everything and anything. It is crazy good and used liberally on their bread and our appetizer the Tamal Cubano my senses are just coming alive.<br/><br/>I hate to be a creature of habit but I am at many of my favorite restaurants especially ones that require a fairly lengthy journey as does Havana Restaurant. I do not need a menu just bring me the combination of the Camarones al Ajillo and Bistec Especial. The garlic sauce on the shrimp added to the Mojo just makes the garlic overload that much better. The house made Chimichurri adds more garlic to the party with an fantastic balance of fresh cuban herbs. <br/><br/>There is one thing you cannot miss at Havana and it alone is worth the trip from Jupiter. Their Cafe con Leche is legendary in my book. Coffee just does not get any better, anywhere and if you love java and are in the neighborhood pull over and get a cup, or two. It's almost as good as the Rojo. My thanks for another memorable meal to all our friends at Havana and I will be looking forward to our next visit. If you have never been then get there.....fast. And remember mas rojo por favor!

Great Cuban Food!. Very good traditional Cuban food, efficient service, not fancy atmosphere, great value.<br/><br/>I've dined there often for several years. Worth the drive, don't be unnerved by the outside appearance and take out window, note the luxury cars in the lot.<br/><br/>Most of the Cuban classics are very well prepared. Of note, the roasted pork loin with onions, whole fried snapper, and the skirt steak are all outstanding. Only classic that has disappointed was vaca frita, tough and lacking flavor, but my favorite at other spots.<br/><br/>All the standards are outstanding, white or yellow rice, black or red beans, mature fried plantains, great coffee. I'm usually too full for dessert, but have good memories of the tres leches cake

Lunch /dinner. The real deal , dinner with live music by the owner sometimes,<br/>I am glad to see such good Cuban restauraunts appearing in Palm beach County north end ,used to have to go to Miami or Hialeah to find good Cuban cooking.<br/>Havana restauraunt has been in this location at least 30 years <br/>Sorry for their loss ,just read Roberto passed away.

Off the chart good. I had the Lechon Asado con Cebolla, and it was by far the best pork I had during my week in Miami. For sides, I had the yellow rice and black beans. The rice was tasty, though there was nothing special about the beans. It also had the best griddled bread of all the places I visited because it had minced garlic. It was amusing because the seating area had terrible ventilation, so I could smell the built up smoke from the kitchen. The fire alarm went off several times while I was eating lunch and I was entertained by the senior citizens with Northern accents asking each other "what's that noise?" In spite of this, it has a great decor and setting for a meal. My waiter was an older gentleman named Nicky, and he was great. If I ever get back to West Palm Beach, I will absolutely return here to eat.

Took my Brother-in-Law and wife here for first time. We have eaten Cuban all over Florida and this food was right up there. Loved the charm of the waitstaff and the pleantiful menu. Ropa Vieja, Oxtail and Bistec were all tasty. I loved that the waiter asked each of us if we wanted Tostones. We all said no, so he announced, "I bring you Tostones for your table; from me".

Awesome Cuban Cuisine!!!. From the appetizer to the main dishes, all was excellent! Our waiter was helpful and offered many features from the menu. I would recommend this place to everyone....it is a must do! The environment seems downplayed online...because it is much better! Don't miss this dining experience!<br/><br/>Earl - PA

The place was clean and the staff was very friendly. The waiter took time to offer suggestions and answer questions. The oxtail dish offered a fantastic array of flavors - the sweet plantains, the dry flavor of the black beans and rice, and the savory oxtail. Quite the combination!! I definitely recommend this place. There were more gringos eating here than at some places in Little Havana, but the food still seemed pretty authentic to me. Yelp Havana Website

Great Cuban!. We have seen the billboard numerous times and finally stopped. The food is wonderful...lively place....next to Sazon in Miami, this place has the best. Everything works here...great staff...very clean and the food is great..we had the media noche sandwiches and an app...go and go hungry! This will be a repeat stop whenever in the area. Enjoy

Half-Way Decent Cuban Food. The food At Havanas is "OK" but really nothing special, the only good thing about the place is the late night hours they keep. If you want real Cuban food at better prices try Don Ramones up the street (maybe a mile or two north on US1 on the west side of the road) is of much better quality. Better yet try Capri - they offer real cuban country stye fare in a laid back setting they have there own bakery and rotating menu with many items you cant find elsewhere. Its located on the north side of southern blvd between lake and georgia; thats about 8 blocks west of US1.

Two Ducks Lovin' Havana. My buddy and I from Oregon had to get some Cuban food on our way back to the airport to fly home after a business meeting. Luckily Havana was right on the way. What a great place! The server could not have been friendlier. He guided us through the large menu and steered us to the best choices. Our favorites were the lechon asado and the ceviche appetizer special, but it was all so good. And reasonably priced too. We tried a lot of dishes, washed down with Tropical beer. Then we had the cafe Cubano and shared a large slice of tres leches cake for dessert. Our bill was only about $50. Amazing. I got three Cubano sandwiches to go to take back to Oregon. They were great, even a day old. Note to Havana: open a branch in Portland, OR, and you'll get rich!

Great Value!. Stopped in for lunch and we were pleasantly surprised. It was clean, the hostess smiled and pointed out attractive displays of 3 dishes on the counter as well as another display of dessert options on our way to our table. The waitstaff was impeccably dressed and totally professional. The 2 story dining room was inviting. The takeout window was doing a brisk business too. We had a Cuban beef sandwich and a lunch special of marinated chicken tenders with a spicy sauce that came with 2 sides, 2 sangrias and shared a flan. Also had an iced tea that was slightly off in flavor. Bill was under $25 and we were stuffed. Definitely worth a stop!

Whoa! Skip the coffee. Went here because it was voted in another publication as being the best. We got a drink with Hershey's syrup and fake whipped topping...ish. Also got the flan....how can a Cuban restaurant screw it up so bad? If the staff was friendly, it would help their business tremendously.

Another Recommended I-95 Pit Stop. We have made Havana a regular stop for our trips between Miami and Jacksonville. Havana has great Cuban food in their dining room, but we have gotten into the habit of ordering sandwiches, mariquitas & cafe con leche from their walk-up window on Dixie Highway. Their Cuban sandwich is the best I've ever had -- just remember to tell them to include the mustard and pickles.<br/><br/>For travelers on I-95, it's an easy detour from the mind-numbing blacktop. Take Exit 66, Forest Hill Road, eastbound for about 1/2 mile. Havana (the restaurant, that is) is on the corner of Forest Hill Road and Dixie Highway.
