During our visit to Marco Island, friends highly recommended HavAnnA Café, so we stopped in for…read morelunch--and it instantly became a place we know we'll return to. The restaurant feels like a colorful, garden‑style hideaway, full of charm, warmth, and the delight of discovering a true local gem. And of course, the two resident chickens, Popcorn and Carmel, add their own quirky personality to the experience. Our server, Mimi, was excellent--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The café is tucked away along the back roads of Chokoloskee, surrounded by the kind of old‑Florida scenery that's becoming rare. The food was outstanding. We started with tostones (fried plantains with garlic), then enjoyed the pork sandwich with chips and the pork plate with rice, beans, and two perfectly cooked sweet plantains. Every bite was rich with authentic Cuban flavor. We finished with the flan, which was so good we could have easily ordered a second. With its lovely outdoor seating, light radio music floating through the air, and a staff that treats you like family, HavAnnA Café delivers an experience that feels both heartfelt and memorable. The only thing missing was a hammock--I could have taken a nap and geared up for an early dinner. The seafood stew looked especially tempting for next time. A wonderful stop in a part of Florida that still holds its original soul. And by the way, don't leave without grabbing a bottle of their hot sauce--sweet, flavorful, and just the right amount of kick!!!

The food is flavorful, well seasoned, and done right. Nothing overpowered, nothing sloppy, just solid, authentic cooking that actually hits. You can tell this place is built on real recipes and consistency, not shortcuts. The vibe is simple, casual, and exactly what it should be. No fluff, just good food and people who know what they're doing. If you're in Naples and craving Cuban, this is the spot.

As soon as you enter, staff are quick to take care of you and make you feel at home. Our server Rosi made sure we were well taken care of and treated us like family. We started with their Mojito which was beyond fresh tasting and well balanced in flavor. They had cups prepared on the bar counter as it must be a staple item for them. We also ordered the Cuban Sandwich (full order) and a side of Sweet Plantains. The food was made fresh to order and you could tell from the taste. The Cuban is the best I've experienced with fresh bread, quality meat, and good portions of sauce/cheese. The portion as well was a great size or enjoy when hungry or share. The Sweet Plantains came with about 5-6 pieces. Most guests were also ordering a cuban coffee to enjoy. Overall, this was a great lunch spot! If you want to experience authentic cuban food when in the area, Rumba Cuban Cafe will not disappoint! Tip: Check their hours before going. They are open 10am - 3pm weekdays only.

We were recently on vacation in Naples and drove down to Everglades City to check it out since it…read morehas been years since I was there. We also had planned to go back with a group later this year. First, even though we asked to be seated indoors, they insisted we sit outside. There were only two others at the restaurant. The inside was empty but the owner later explained they were cleaning it. I thought the prices were high and they offered no lunch specials. But, going on prior Yelp reviews, I was led to believe the food was above par. Sadly, the food was OK but not great, and not worth the price. To top it off, they automatically add a 20% tip. I know restaurants do that with large parties but certainly inappropriate for a party of two. Service was good but I don't like to be forced to pay an automatic 20% tip. Tipping is done based on how good your service is -- so I would get stuck paying 20% even if service was awful? What I found to be off putting were the responses from the owners to reviewers; particularly, on Google. They accuse everyone who posts a bad review of posting a fake review and/or they got extremely defensive. Wow! How about a little humility and attempts to fix things. Sure wish I had seen the Google reviews prior to making my trip to Everglades City. I chose this place due to the great Yelp reviews I read. I should have checked all of the reviews because the bad ones were way more accurate.
