    Gary killed it! He was serving drinks and vibes. I will be recommending the bar, and Gary, to all friends and family. Havana 1957 is a must when Gary's there!

    Rice Beans and Fixings for Fajitas

    We actually found this place completely by accident. We were walking back to The LINQ from the Strip and if you've ever stayed there you know you can cut through the Flamingo and come out by the Promenade. As we were walking through I saw Havana 1957 and the menu looked really interesting so we ended up making a reservation for dinner. When we got there the host was super nice and got us seated pretty quickly. We had requested stage seating on OpenTable but didn't end up getting it. Not really a huge deal though because there was plenty of seating and honestly every seat looked pretty decent. The only thing was the table felt tiny. The inside of this place is BEAUTIFUL though. For drinks I got the spicy guava margarita. There were actual guava seeds and jalapeños in it which I thought was cool. This was honestly really good. It had a nice kick to it but wasn't one of those drinks where the spice completely takes over. Also definitely not a weak pour. We ended up getting the steak fajitas and the pork chunks. The fajitas came out sizzling which was expected but what I wasn't expecting was for the pork chunks to come out sizzling too. They bring them out on this hot grill and it honestly looked really cool. The fajitas were good. Pretty much exactly what you'd want from fajitas. Good amount of steak, peppers, onions and all the sides. No complaints. The pork chunks were the winner though. The outside was crispy but the inside was super juicy and tender. They came with sweet plantains and those were cooked perfectly. Not too mushy, not hard, just sweet and caramelized. Whatever they put to garnish the pok cunks also added the right amount of flavor and tang.

    Came here for the city's annual Restaurant Week. This year, Havana have a menu with three courses for $30. Located right across from the flamingo habitat entrance, I like the chill vibe of this casual restaurant. There's a small circular stage in the middle for live entertainment which I think happens during the dinner/late hours as there were no singers/live band while we were there for lunch on Sunday. For our first course (appetizer), we opt for ham croquettes (2 pieces) and some chips & guacamole. The croquettes were delicious but the guacamole was lacking flavor tremendously. Absolutely flavorless....they needed to add some jalapeños, lime, some salt n pepper. There were a few choices to pick from for our second (main) course such as burgers & fries, grilled chicken salad, Havana cuban chicken and carnitas tacos. My salad was fresh with plenty of nutritious fixins like cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes, garbanzo beans etc. Husband really enjoyed his chicken. A big portion and the rotisserie chicken was juicy and tender...not dried at all. Comes with rice, beans and plaintains. Our last course was dessert. Between the flan and tres leche cake, we chose the latter. We expected the cake to be moist but it was dried!!!!! It didn't even taste like a traditional tres leche. It tasted like normal vanilla cake with a bit of condensed milk underneath. Disappointing. Overall the food was solid, service was good, great extensive cocktail and mocktail menu and a nice atmosphere. Just don't bother with dessert. Thanks to Restaurant Week for letting me give Havana 1957 a try. Be sure to check out their coffee shop (Cordadito) that's connected to this restaurant.

    Havana rum punch

    While service is great, not sure if I would return back to Havana 1957, it seems that they change their menu so if you're going there for a certain drink or food item, you might want to check before going. The drink my sister wanted was no longer on the menu, but the bartender was nice and still made it for her, I got the Havana rum punch. We thought we were ordering the guacamole and pork carnitas, but no, it was only guacamole. I'm not sure how they justified charging $22 for guacamole when that was the same price they charged for guacamole and pork carnitas. So because of that it's a pass for me.

    GETTING HERE: Located inside the FLAMINGO hotel in Las Vegas. REVIEW: This is our first time trying this restaurant and we really enjoyed it. We enjoyed the ambience and the feel of the restaurant. Just know that it can be a little loud because it literally rests right next to the casino floor. So if the loudness might be an issue, ask to be seated further inside the restaurant. There was not any live music the night of our visit, but it would've been nice to experience that. The service was really good. Very friendly server who checked on us once during our meal. We ordered green enchiladas and they were very flavorful. We asked for the green sauce on the side because we were 100% sure the spice level but it was so tasty. We almost asked for more sauce to take back to our room - it was that good. :-) Definitely will return! Thanks!

    Empanadas
    Mike G.

    Food was great and service couldn't have been better. I was on my way to a Agua's frescas with alcohol spot that is right next door and decided to come here for some food. Ended up getting an order of the platter and a plate of enchiladas which were all pretty great. Empanadas were not the best i've had but are decent enough to order again. We noticed that there is mexican food on the menu and asked why have this in a cuban restaurant, apparently people think we are all the same cause we speak spanish. Customers in the past have complained that why this establishment doesn't have tacos.

    Tiki mojito . Very well crafted and enjoyable
    Janelle O.

    This is going to become a new favorite staying here at the Flamingo! First of all the restaurant is absolutely beautiful and the servers and busters are just the nicest people. We enjoyed the tiki mojito ( as tiki enthusiasts I approve and recommend entirely ) and shared the chicken fajitas . Very flavorful and the sides of rice and beans ( with a cinnamon flavor that is outta this world ). Service was fast and enjoyable and we will definitely be back for their happy hour . Thank you for a lovely evening .

    Came in for lunch and even got some happy hour options were great .. great food honestly great flavors the smash burger was delicious chicken as well and the appetizers .. the decor is really nice great atmosphere as well, only reason they lost a star is because there was only 1 server for like 8 tables so def some waiting around ..

    Delicious food and great service, the decor was so cute very Cuban inspired and detailed. The portion could have been a bit larger when it came to the rice and beans ratio next to the beef. All in all pretty good though.

    I love a cubano and knew I had to check this place out. I didn't know what to expect, but this one was pretty solid 8/10. We were there for after the post dinner rush and the staffing was a little low so our service was slow, but we weren't in a big rush so we didn't mind it. It was very calm with little groups scattered around and very lovely music playing. One of my friends got the wrong protein and our server sent it back to get redone which was very appreciated. And overall we were all happy and content with our dinner plates!

    Chicken Enchiladas & Strawberry Margarita

    I loved this place! I was staying at the Flamingo for a conference, and I needed something quick on lunch break. I was pleasantly surprised by not only the food, but also the service. I sat at the bar, and the bartender was warm and started conversation. The bar was packed but he still made conversation and was intentional. Delicious food & drinks

    Nice vibes on the weekends. They have a live band on Friday and Saturday evenings. The service was good. Some of the dishes were good, but most of the dishes like the shredded roast pork and beef were salty. They didn't sound very happy when I mentioned that the food was salty. The server said that the meats will taste the same if I asked for a remake because their shredded pork and beef were pre-made. The fried plantains and black beans were delicious though. Don't get the chicken wings because their shredded pork wings are so tiny that it looked like game hen wings. Tiny wings for over $20, no thank you again. Lesson learned! Just an okay place with overpriced items. We even gave this place a try more than once to get a better review. Nothing changed.

    A great classic mojito
    John K.

    We assembled a delightful, filling meal from the cocktail and small plates sections of the menu at Havana 1957. The classic mojito was both flavorful and sweet, a wonderful combination. The Chopped Salad turned out to be a great mix of textures. Combined with Yuca Fries, Maduros, and Ham Croquetas it worked out to a quick, filling dinner. Service was prompt and friendly. The decor was very nicely done - like other parts of the city where you may be able to picture yourself in Venice or Paris or NYC, the vibe here was very similar to the Bay View Bar in the Hotel Nacional of actual Havana. In a city that seems to now be mostly either fast food or Michelin extravagences, this was a lovely spot somewhere in the middle.

    Fantastic grungy dive bar in Las Vegas!…read more I honestly can't believe it's taken us so long to check this venue out, especially since concerts are always free here. Our favorite punk band, The Mormons, happened to be playing here which is what drew us in. Loved the atmosphere with dollar bills and some R rated photo strips hanging around the bar area along with various stickers & graffiti filling the rest of the space. Truly feels like a quintessential Vegas dive bar. Bartenders weren't overly friendly, just there to do their job, but they served beers / cocktails quickly. We had a few PBR's which were $5 each. Fellow patrons were really friendly. I even made a friend during the show! For anyone with sensitive ears, the speakers are LOUD, so be sure to bring your ear protection. I loved the loud music, but my husband was suffering a bit. As per a usual dive bar, it is also smoky inside. If cigarette smoke bothers you, snag a spot near the entrance since they leave the door open for fresh air. This was everything I expected from a dive bar with a small stage for cool bands. We'll be back!

    Okay no Down Town Vegas Bar Crawl is complete without a stop at the World Famous Double Down!…read more It doesn't matter if you start here or end up here as long as you get here! A+ people watching location, always a show! No Bullshit Bartenders do don't be asking for no fancy bullshit crafted cocktails! Simple is best, cold beers and shots! Always a good time!
