    I've really liked the food (and drink) here, but the experience was destroyed this time by the unbelievably loud environment. It was like being in the middle of a rock concert with the amps at max. You couldn't hear yourself think, let alone your Dinner companion. Go with ear plugs next time!

    My boyfriend and I were on a date, his place of residence is LA and mine being OC. I decided to treat him to a Latin dinner which he’d never had authentic Cuban before other than our renowned bakery everyone waits in LONG lines for. Needless to say he was very impressed with how good it was and the quality of the restaurant. We loved everything about it, 10/10 as far as we experienced. We hope our next visit is the same if not better. Thank you Habana!

    First time here— and def not the last! I loved this place! What a really lovely ambiance outside with the hanging patio lights and candles. Chairs were comfy to sit and the timing of the drinks and food were on point. Food was delicious and drinks hit the spot. I loved the el benny. Yum! Our server was amazing. Milton the manager came by to check every single table and make sure each table was doing well. I appreciated that greatly bc it showed he cared about the patrons. I will def be retuning. Thank you for the being the perfect spot for a Friday night dinner! Cheers!
