A local place. No bells and whistle. Late night menu. We like the food. Had a house special soup. Rice and beans with our main course of pork and beef. Would like to come back for dinner and Cuban coffee and desserts read more

Ordered for takeout and was extremely disappointed. Fricassé de pollo was nothing like the dish description. The chicken dry and tough. THe sauce had no flavor. No olives and no "slowly" cooked. Here is the description from menu "traditional cuban-style chicken slowly cooked with potatoes and olives, simmered in a special spanish sauce" read more

Havana Restaurant - Fricassê chicken. Very dry and no olives. Sauce tasteless. - Cuban Near Me - West Palm Beach, Florida

Went to Havana after reading rave reviews, and top mention in recent PB Post 'Best of" publication. Honestly, food was just mediocre, came out warm but not hot. Server Gustav was very pleasant. Expected to be wowed, but that didn't happen. Empanadas and Cuban cappuccino were the best parts. Sad. Three stars out of 5. read more

We came here last Saturday for an early lunch. Appetizers: My fiancé has a tamale and I had mariquitas con mojo Entrees: Ropa Veija and Vaca Frita Both with yellow rice and black beans Drinks: We both had a glass of red wine and I also had a Havana Summer which is wine/lemonade mix. I didn't get my server's name but she was very nice and accommodating. I love how quaint and intimate it is. The food is pretty good. My fiancé said he's had better ropa veija but I loved my Vaca Frita. read more

Havana Restaurant - Cuban! - Cuban Near Me - West Palm Beach, Florida

Have driven by here many times, especially noticing their outdoor window service. Stopped in today as part of my fantastic Historic West Palm Beach Neighborhood Food Tour where we visited the best places along S. Dixie Hwy. This place is a family affair and you can feel it in the staff and the photos of the family. It's been a celebrated Cuban restaurant for over 30 years. Everything we tried... beef, pork, beans, rice and plantains were all so good with great depth of flavor. The restaurant is large and comfortable. The outdoor window seemed to be continually busy. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

I had to have Cuban before I left home to LA. My dish was the steak which came out a bit on the bleu side but was very tender and flavorful nonetheless. Service seemed authentic and our server was very attentive. Ambiance was in line with a Florida type atmosphere. read more

I came here with some friends to celebrate my birthday. The vibes were good and the staff were friendly. I really enjoy the Cuban bread but they don't make it there. It's outsourced. Overall I felt that the food could've used a little more salt. I like Don Ramon a lot and I think I'd pick it over here. The prices are the same as Havana but the portion size is better at Don Ramon. You can get beans, rice, and plantains with your food at Don Ramon. Here you only get two sides. And the Vaca Frita here was not crispy. The additional fee per person to cut a cake is criminal. It's not like they offer you to buy an entire cake they sell. I think it's just a money grab which I don't like. Maybe it's best to come here on a date or family dinner but not for a birthday. The parking was easy as they have their own lot but it's small. The 24hr food window is a nice touch. I wonder what that service would be like. read more

This place has been highly rated for decades and despite some cosmetic changes to the building and adding outside tables remains pretty much as I remember it over 10 years ago this must speak for itself. Somewhat limited inside dining times which provides a nothing special experience. To me it is the serves all the time walk up kiosk that is the flavor of this place. A late night snack or coffee while people watching just is it. Rarely ordered a sandwich but regular potato things, crickets, fried thick bacon bits, empanada Oh and to mention again the coffee con leche. read more

Took an early flight back to NY, and was glad I found this 24/7 spot on my way to PBI. First I was skeptical, but I took a chance. I ordered a medium cafe con leche, one guava with cheese, and one guava pastry for later in the day, and a sandwich Cubano for at the gate. The Cubano was good, and I enjoyed it while waiting to board. Definitely a spot to return to next time when I have an early flight again. read more

Living in Miami, I arranged to meet a customer from Orlando halfway in West Palm Beach for a business lunch yesterday. Wanting to make it a pleasant experience for everyone, I reached out to several of my Yelp friends for recommendations and the response was almost unanimous: "You have to try Havana Restaurant!" I arrived about an hour early for our 1:00 PM meeting and was warmly greeted at the door by Ariana, one of the friendliest and most gracious waitresses I've met in a long time. When I asked if I could set up my laptop and get some work done while waiting, she didn't hesitate for a second. Ariana found me a comfortable table in a quieter area, ideal for working and later for our meeting. That thoughtful gesture really set the tone for what turned out to be a wonderful experience. Once my customers arrived, we ordered some Cuban classics like, vaca frita with moros, lechón asado with rice and black beans, a few ham croquetas, and a refreshing guanábana juice. Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor, freshly made, and beautifully presented. You could truly taste the pride and care that goes into their cooking. The service was excelente from beginning to end friendly, attentive, and sincere. The restaurant itself was spotless and full of that warm, welcoming Cuban charm that makes you feel right at home. What was meant to be just a simple business lunch turned into one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I've had in quite some time. I left not only impressed but genuinely grateful. Havana Restaurant has definitely earned a top spot on my list, and I'll be back soon... this time with friends and family to share the experience. Highly recommended! read more

Good spot for some Latin food, nice local staple restaurant that's well known. The 24hr walk up window is great - try some of their pastries/pastelitos In for party of 8 for late lunch- seated promptly and waiter was there to take drink orders and explain specials. Good service, they have upstairs level that can seat larger parties as well as lower area. Open parking that can be difficult to find spots but there is an additional separate parking area. Had a couple orders of the fried whole fish- came with two sides. Pretty good, tees leches and Flan desserts and cafe con leche were very good read more

Havana was a life-saver within the community during the pandemic. They continue to be community leaders. That is one of the many reasons I love stopping by to support these beautiful people. Oh, and their food is so so good! Their coffee with desserts is heaven. read more

FOOD/DRINK: 5/5 SERVICE: 4/5 EXPERIENCE: 4/5 Note: I've only used the walk up ventana window, never been inside the restaurant. This is a GO TO for when we are in WPB, especially when we are let off a late flight since they're open 24/7! We have been to Havana multiple times and it never disappoints. Hubby is Cuban and craves Havana every time we go visit family. I had a side of yellow rice one time because I wasn't feeling well and it was the best rice I've ever had. They also are known to have a really Cuban sandwich, but the true hero is the guava pastelito. They've mastered the perfect ratio of guava and it's warm and gooey. They also have the coveted IRON BEER for sale. Latest trip I got the pan con lechon sandwich, while hubby got the media noche sandwich. We took it back to our hotel to eat so it got a little soggy but still very yummy and a good size. Slight cons: -The cafecito was a little disappointing but it depends on who is working -The area is a little sketchy but worth the trip -The food is significantly more expensive on Uber Eats but it allows you to order ahead. Otherwise you are stuck waiting IRL for your food. Uber Eats doesn't ever pick up the food so you're probably gonna have to trek to get it yourself. read more

How can you beat very good Cuban food that is available 24 hours a day? Take out or eat at the handful of tables outside. Lunch specials are an exceptional deal and include any two sides from tostones to yucca. Lechon is melt-in-your- mouth delicious and prices reasonable. Parking can be tight, but it's worth the effort. Go hungry, leave with a smile and a little garlic on your breath. read more

Arianna was amazing and the food and dessert was delicious. So was the ambiance! Loved the place. Visiting from Houston

Have wanted to try this place for awhile...first tge good. Young man Cruz, I believe he helps the servers does not stop! This guy's a worker!!! He gets 5 stars!!! The empanadas were good hot, tasty and filling. The main course chicken was challenging to eat because of all the he bones, not my favorite. Tge rice and beans were ok. Unfortunately the service ( other than Cruz) was lacking. Not sure if f this is due to staffing or my expectations. All in all I'd give them 3.5 read more

Coming from Miami we expected the food to be overpriced or not good, but we did not expect both. To make matters worse, the lunch price that is advertised on their website and on the table signs was not honored. They said it was for weekdays. We did not bother to approach the owner. Sadly, this was a one and done type visit for our family. read more

Stopped by for lunch while visiting West Palm Beach for work and while I was a little disappointed that there no indoor seating during daytime hours (and it was raining), we ordered at the walk up window and grabbed some food because we were starving. My sister and niece ordered some empanadas and papa rellena and they seemed very pleased with their options. I ordered a Cuban sandwich and the bread was toasted perfectly, the acidity of the pickles and mustard balanced the richness of the ham and roasted pork and it was lovely. I do wish the pork had a bit more flavor but overall it was still a great sandwich and I highly recommend it. read more

Havana was a bit of a miss for me. The rice was bland and the meats were lacking flavor, which is tough when they're supposed to be the stars. The beans, however, were thick, rich, and absolutely delicious... but they shouldn't have been the highlight of the plate. I did grab a coffee and it was fantastic--super strong and basically launched me straight to the moon. read more

Worst sangria of My Life. And the food don't get me started on the food. Try to a few things. Oh wow really bad food poisoning.

Found this place driving by. Stop and ate. I asked the server to surprise me with the best dish on the menu. And she delivered it was so flavor-full. I wish I could remember the name of the dish. Definitely coming back next time I'm in town. read more

Another 5-Star Visit! While I was in the area, I decided to swing by Havana Restaurant and finally try one of their famous Cuban sandwiches. It had been a while since my last one, and as soon as I pulled in, I was greeted right away at the window--great start. I ordered my sandwich exactly how I like it: no pickles, no mustard, and well toasted. I paired it with a cold Materva (a must for me), and let me tell you--the sandwich was perfect. Crispy, flavorful, and completely hit the spot. Their sign says "Best Cuban food in town," and honestly, they're not lying. Havana serves up the best Cuban sandwich I've had in a long time. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and go! The food was incredible, the service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere was just right. With Cuban classics playing in the background, Spanish tile floors, and dark wood tables, the vibe is warm, nostalgic, and inviting. They really nailed it from start to finish. read more

Only eat here when I'm desperate because it's open 24hours. Parking is rough and the food window on the corner seems dangerous. not my favorite Cuban food in town. read more

Food from Havana is always over the top fantastic. I love the Arroz Con Pollo. Also the Madea Noche sandwich. A side order of plantains is always necessary too. All of these foods are five star perfect every time I get them. And no meal complete without their signature espresso, also the con Leche is over the top amazing. I am so glad they moved up here after Hurricane Andrew in 92, and set them selves up in West Palm Beach. If you want the greatest food there is in West Palm Beach, this is your place! read more

Loved the reviews but didn't experience the same. Restaurant is very dated and is very hot inside. Cuban sandwich was nothing special and a bit salty (maybe the ham?), yellow rice with gandules was tasteless. No pork, needed salt, just flavorless. Cafe con leche was good but expensive. Desserts: took home rice pudding (great), flan (okay), and empanadas (awesome!). So all in all we were terribly under impressed with our $80 lunch ($65 plus tip). PS service was good. read more

Food is horrible! This is where white people go to eat "Cuban" food. they think it's authentic and good. Lmao. This place was good when they first opened years ago. After they did the rebuild, the food quality dropped dramatically. I think they got a new cook. Foods gross. Dry AF con gris, black beans that taste vinegary ( vinegar in beans make it lasts longer), sandwiches got smaller but the prices got larger. Place is just ugh! Cubans who like real food don't eat here. It's mostly white people with no tastebuds and Euros who don't know any better. read more
