    Havana Restaurant - Ropa Vieja - Shredded Beef

    Having had the opportunity to travel regularly to Miami in the past, I really like authentic Cuban…read morecuisine but living in the Southwest, finding this can be a challenge. Challenge accepted! Havana is your place if you're looking for some tasty Cuban dining! I dropped in for dinner and opted for the shredded beef with black beans, rice and plantains. Also ordered a mango shake on the side and some Cuban coffee to end the meal. EVERYTHING was delicious and just as good as I remembered from authentic Cuban spots in Miami. The location was not busy when I dropped in so service was super attentive. Then dining room has plenty of seating options and was comfortable. I would highly recommend Havana - I will definitely return!

    Havana restaurant had been on my list for quite a while, but I was never in the area and hungry…read moreduring the time that they were open until recently. They are absolutely a hidden gem, located in the back of a strip mall area and in the very corner. We came during kind of an odd hour, but sometimes that's the best time to come. They weren't busy at all. They have a menu filled with things that are much harder to find in the Albuquerque area, including a really good Cubano and lots of Latin specialties. One of the most unique things we tried was their yucca which I've only ever had fried, but this was not, and it was really good. They also had a good variety of different juices and smoothies that I would love to come back for. I really need to also try their Ropa Vieja, which is a personal favor of mine and always a good indicator of great Cuban food.

    K'Lynn's Southern & Cajun Fusion is one of those spots that feels like a real find…read more The catfish is the standout. Perfectly seasoned, crispy, and you get a generous portion, which makes the price feel like a steal. My husband's grilled catfish salad was huge and genuinely delicious, not an afterthought like it can be elsewhere. Sides were a bit mixed. The mac and cheese was overdone, but the red beans and rice were excellent, full of flavor and exactly what you want alongside that fish. Only real drawback is the hours. We found ourselves wishing they were open more often because it is the kind of place you want in regular rotation. Overall, great food, strong portions, and real value. We will absolutely be back.

    I love Cajun food normally but I'll be honest this really wasn't it…read more The gumbo had a weird pasty chalky taste. It wasn't like a soup how we are used to, it was sort of thick and slimy, the flavor was a little too different. 1 star dish to be honest. We threw it in the trash. The jambalaya was a little better, but it still wasn't great. It actually made it to like a 3.5 star quality dish; it was good enough to eat, so we ate this. The fried oysters were pretty good, especially when dipped in their spicy tartar sauce, 4 stars for this dish. I might actually crave this once in a blue moon. Their Mac and cheese had so much potential. It was thick and creamy how I like it, burned cheese on it was great, they attempted to put som cajun seasoning in it that you can barely taste, but the part that docked them points the most was the Mac was overcooked probably sat on a heat lamp for a very long time. The fries were soggy after only a 5 minute drive. They also use styrofoam, which I personally don't like eating from due to the forever chemicals that leach into the food when it's hot. Also after spending $40 and asking for an extra sauce I got charged a dollar. I mean okay I don't thin the side sauce was worth the dollar but also the sauce that came with it was only filled half way. I mentioned that am still I was charged the buck. The lady up front had an alright demeanor, the lady cooking in the back seemed really sweet and asked me how i found them, had a smile etc. I think they should have someone like that cashiering.
