    Attractive restaurant located in the Mission Valley mall. We stopped in for a quick lunch, trying 3 different empanadas and a beer. It took a while to be served the empanadas at the 'bakery' counter and right before we paid, the server went to serve someone at the outside walk-up window. Uh, hello...?! We sat at at the bar where the service as well as the empanadas were luke warm. The bar tender was wearing one earphone and obviously taking a phone call while 'working'. It was difficult to get her attention between her prepping limes, her phone call and her disappearing every so often. We could have easily walked out and not paid for our drink, but we were honest. She didn't get a tip. She also needs to learn to cut limes more efficiently. We wouldn't rush back.

    Vegetarian Plate

    We gambled on a Friday night with no reservations, but managed to get a table for 2 no issue. Cute lively interior, definitely a little loud but atmosphere is fun. Very happy with the vegetarian plate, really enjoyed the charred veggies and sweet plantains.

    It's been a few months since we've been here and from our last visit things have changed. Entree portion seems smaller. The side yuca fries were cut smaller and with fewer pieces. Sandwiches are gone from the dinner menu but you can still order them. Dinner is full service. Customer service went downhill. We came at 8pm and they couldnt sit us inside the main dining area even though there are open tables. They were reserving it for a larger group of people in case there is a rush of people 1 hour before closing time. They sat us near the entrance. Then While we're still eating about 30 before closing they are already cleaning ane lifting the chairs around us. Almost signaling us to hurry up with our dinner. I still like my Ropa Vieja but after this experience I don't think we'll come back anytime soon.

    The food is just as good as always but their new model in service is not that great. So now you don't order at the counter and take a seat. Now you wait to be seated and they do full service. It takes a bit for them to bring you your check etc etc. Plus they don't have the sangria by the pitcher and need to do glass by glass. We wanted to sit in the main dining area but they wouldn't seat at at a table that was for more than 4 because there was only 3 of us and they were saving it for a larger group but was less than an hour before closing. Plus the lunch and dinner prices are different. And they don't have the sandwiches listed on the dinner menu and so you need to ask for them if you want one for dinner. It just seems more inconvenient and more of a hassle with the new menu and pricing etc etc. and I get the impression that ordering by the glass, Waiting to be seated waiting for the check is an excuse to charge more than they did before by attempting to making it more fancy. Idk. Could be wrong but that's the impression I got. The service was ok but I guess I just preferred the old way where you order at the counter pay and they bring the food to you and so I'm when you're done you don't have to wait and look around for a server to get your check. I'll still be back but just not as frequently especially for dinner. I'd be more apt to come during lunch now.

    We came here for their exquisite coffee bar and to relax in their comfortable, relaxing patio. The latte I had was expertly hand made with great strong flavor. The waitress was extremely helpful and nice. Everyone was so nice here. It's a very cute restaurant with a great fun atmosphere. I loved it here!

    It's alwaysss a fun time at Havana Grill! If you're ever in the mood for some Cuban food, Havana Grill is the place to be. On the particular night we stopped by, they had a live band and dancing! It was such an upbeat crowd just enjoying the food, music, and each other's company. The Vaca Frita is my go-to! It features braised flank steak seared with onions, Spanish rice, fried plantains, and a small salad. Every element on this plate is SO GOOD! It feels really like someones mom made it for you. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their plates! They're well-rounded, homey, and super flavorful.

    I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of my lunch at Havana Grill. The restaurant is located in the outskirts of the mission valley mall and has plenty of parking and is easy to find. It is super cute, and has a fun, airy, bright feel. Service: Our server, Sydney, was great and explained a number of food items to us without even being asked. She was helpful in making good recommendations as well. Food came out fast and we were checked on often. Food: We ordered three empanadas: picadillo, yucca, Cubano with buttery mojo sauce. These empanadas were excellent! The crust was flakey and buttery and had a lot of filling. They are a pretty decent size. The pork and yucca and picadillo were my favorites that we tried. For my entree, I ordered the Ropa Vieja, which was delicious. It came with brown rice, black beans and two sweet plantains - all super tasty. We don't get dessert, but they looked amazing in the cabinet. I will definitely return here to try more things or just get a few empanadas and dessert to go!

    My husband was craving baked chicken & mashed potatoes & we found it on the menu here. It was still happy hour so got a great deal on margarita & painkiller cocktails as well as empanada - we tried pork/ yuca one and it was delicious! Our server, Nikki was wonderful! We had roasted chicken with garlic mashed potatoes and chicken with rice. I am not a fan of rice but thoroughly enjoyed it - it was super flavorful. Chicken was excellent & flavorful too! We had coffee cortada - nice & strong! The food portions were big so couldn't try any desserts but they have some good looking pastries & cookies.

    From the moment you walk in to be seated, the restaurant is very inviting and gives immediate Havana vibes. There is a takeout/pick up bakery/cafe counter that you can order from if you are not dining in, a bar, and inside and outside dining. The food we ordered was amazing. We did an empanada trio, Havana skirt steak, and cubano. Pistachio coffee is a must try. They have a full specialty cocktail menu to order from and full bar. We came during lunch rush, and despite being understaffed, the food and experience was will nice.

    Crazy Cuban

    It's so great to have a good Cuban sit-down restaurant in San Diego! Their Cuban sandwiches are as good as the ones we get in Miami. The Crazy Cuban is my favorite. Their tostones are great. And I love that they have live music! Tonight my brother-in-law accidentally ordered the wrong sandwich, and they couldn't have been more gracious about bringing him the sandwich he meant to order. Lovely people and wonderful food.

    I had lunch here with some friends. It was my first time at Havana Grill. I ordered the Citrus Grilled Chicken Breast that came with sweet plantains, brown rice, and signature black beans. I thought it was just ok, the chicken was a bit on the dry side. My favorite part of the dish were the sweet plantains. I had a taste of my friend's Arroz con Pollo. This dish was more flavorful than mine. They used dark meat for this dish and the way it was cooked left the chicken very tender and full of flavor. We also tried the Cubana empanadas--not recommended. The Yuka fries were good. Overall, I enjoyed the food but felt the service was a bit off. Food was delivered to our table within a good turnaround time; however, I had to wait quite a bit for my utensils. The server miscounted and didn't have enough at the table. Service was ok, not the best. The restaurant wasn't busy when we visited, but we had to flag down other servers since ours wasn't available. She was sweet, just not very attentive. The restaurant is very clean and nicely decorated. When you walk in, there's a beautiful display of baked goods. It took some serious willpower to walk away from the sweets, but I managed to succeed.

    Havana Chicken Sandwich
    Stephen C.

    "I've been wanting to try Havana Grill for ages, so I finally made it there yesterday--and wow, it delivered one of the best meals I've ever had! I started with the Vaca Frita, their signature crispy fried flank steak. It's braised flank steak seared super crispy with sautéed onions and mojo sauce, served with rice, sweet plantains, and I added a side of beans that paired perfectly. The meat had this amazing texture--like burnt ends but even better--mixed with garlic butter (or that garlicky mojo vibe), so flavorful and crispy in every bite. Then I sampled the Havana Chicken Sandwich: a crispy bun loaded with chicken breast, caramelized onions, cilantro, and garlic aioli--basically a lighter, chicken twist on the classic Cuban sandwich, and it was spot-on. I also tried the Havana Royale Burger (or whatever that tasty burger is called on the menu), which came with this incredible house-made sauce I couldn't quite place--maybe that signature guava aioli?--but it was so addictive I couldn't stop eating it. Finally, the Arroz con Pollo was a standout classic: tender hormone-free chicken with rice, peas, red peppers, and spices in a rich, saucy broth that made it way more flavorful than your average chicken-and-rice dish at other Latin spots. I really wanted to squeeze in the empanadas and that guava cheese pastry for dessert, but I was already stuffed from sampling everything. No regrets--it's the perfect excuse to go back soon! Havana Grill totally lived up to the hype. If you're in San Diego, hit up the Havana Grill in Mission Valley! And our waitress was hilarious! A lot of fun a lot of energy! " hello Sydney!"

    Cute restaurant that makes you feel like you are in the heart of Cuba! Loved the music, the ambiance and the service. I ordered the Havana Mojito which was delicious. For starters, we ordered some of the empanadas. I ordered the Chicken Fricase empanada which was full of flavor. For my main entree, I ordered the Fricase de Pollo with congris which came with sweet plantains. The portion size was absolutely perfect.the chicken was so tender, it fell off the bone and was full of flavor. My entire family enjoyed their meals and drinks.

    Ask the Community - Havana Grill

    Are they open on sunday?

    Yes they are open Sundays, close at 8:00 pm.

    Is the restaurant dog friendly?

    No, I definitely wouldn't recommend it. You'd basically be sitting with your dog on the hot sidewalk. Way more dog friendly specific restaurants in the SD area. This just isn't one of them.

    Do you have a happy hour?

    Not at this time. Hopefully they have one in the future

    I walked around the mission valley mall and couldn't find this place what is it next to?

    This is on the Nordstrom side, walk pass Cava facing the Main Street. Hope this helps.

    Do you have a high chair or booster seat?

    Hi. Didn't see any - but I'm sure they have it in the back just in case

    Do they take reservations?

    Unfortunately No. You order your food at the register then find a table.

    Do they have a happy hour?

    This restaurant just had a soft opening. I was told they should have a Happy Hour in a few weeks. Just call to see if they do at that time.

    What time does Havana Grill in Mission Valley open, is there a website or phone # for this location? And do they take reservations? Thanks in advance.

    M-S 11am-9pm, Sunday 11am-8pm. havanagrillrestaurants.com. +1 (619) 915-5699. Regarding reservations, unsure! They're not on Open Table.

The was a table with quiche, bagels, lox, cream cheese, and two types of salads. Another space had multiple tarts and large fresh fruit platters. And finally one last spot had fresh cooked salmon covered in pistachios. The chef and staff were amazing. They took time to explain to guests what each item was if they had questions. Last but not least they are a kosher kitchen. If you need kosher fare this is the place! The store itself is tucked away and has amazing pastries as well.

    5/11/2026 CHOCO CHIP…read morePISTACHIO COOKIE Wow! This was reeeeally good! It was crispy on the outside and slightly chewy on the inside. Lots of chocolate and I think they added toffee in it too. The middle section had pistachio frangipane (or it looked like it) with coarsely chopped pistachios that brought another layer of crunch! Then to top it all off, it had pistachio cream on top of the cookie! I only wish I got another one. CAPPUCCINO It was okay. But love the foam! It was frothy and foamy! PAVLOVA The meringue was a bit too hard and too sweet and the pastry cream was overwhipped. Loved the fresh fig and blueberries though. I was looking forward to eating pavlova and this was very disappointing! KOUIGN AMANN Very buttery and sticky! Crispy on the outside. Every bite was not dry, but chewy. There was this sticky and chewy texture that wasn't unpleasant, yet it wasn't fully flaky like a croissant. But glad it was not dry! The kouign amann was not as tall like others I've tried, but I preferred it this way because it was not dry. The last kouign amann I had from Bread Lounge was dryyyy. But bought mine at a coffee shop too. PAIN AU CHOCOLAT Crispy on the outside, but I must have toasted a bit more, so the outside was a bit more toasted than desired. Inside was good. Good dark chocolate. BUTTER CROISSANT Really buttery, flaky, crispy! Ate it next day, so reheated it in the toaster oven to bring a more crispness all around. Really enjoyed this! Adding butter and jam is so good! LEMON MERINGUE Meringue had a strong eggy smell and flavor, the lemon was tangy, but not enough to rid of the eggy smell and flavor. The tart was hard and almost stale. I took a few bites and threw the rest out. PAIN SUISSE Chocolate flavor. Crispy on the outside, fluffy like a light spongy cake inside. Enjoyed this! CUSTOMER SERVICE Got there early afternoon. There was only one person in front of me. Good service overall. Quick service. Hits and misses of the various pastries I've tried. It will not deter me from trying their pastries though, as the really good ones were really good! Would love to return! Especially for that Choco Chip Pistachio Cookie! LOCATED INSIDE ANOTHER STORE Located inside a store called Floral Palette, which is a floral shop and specialty gift store. Beautiful store! The sign is big, so you cannot miss it!

    Went to Hinar to catch up with a friend! The line was long as usual, but it moved really fast…read more Shout out to Roseanne for being the sweetest and kindest worker! We ordered the Earl Grey matcha and Biscoff matcha, and both were super delicious. The service was great, and even though it was busy, there were still plenty of tables available. Great location, and I'll definitely be back!

    I had an incredibly rough day and was looking forward to treating myself to my favorite dessert…read morefrom Hinar--the Biscoff cheesecake. Before driving over, I even called the store to make sure they had it. To my surprise, someone actually answered, confirmed they had one slice left, and even offered to hold it for me. My mood instantly changed. After the day I'd had, I was genuinely excited and headed there immediately. I arrived less than 10 minutes later, only to be told they didn't have it after all. To make matters worse, they claimed they don't even hold desserts for customers. It wasn't just disappointing--it was incredibly frustrating. If they couldn't hold it, I would have understood. But giving me false hope and having me rush over for nothing completely ruined the experience. What was supposed to be a small bright spot in my day turned into an even bigger disappointment. Unfortunately, this experience has left such a bad impression that I won't be returning. There are plenty of other bakeries in the area, and I'll be looking forward to trying those instead.
