Tried Havana Restaurant for the first time. The ambiance is great, with ceilign fans swirling lazily and salsa music playing in the background. Our waiter, Jam, was amazing - when he heard that this was our first time, he didn't even give us a menu, but created an tasting menu for us, which took our preferences (no shellfish for me, not too spicy for Fred) into account. One wonderful course after the other appeared on our table. Mojitos are great in that place, too; the bartender even came to our table and had a consultation with Fred about sugar reduced options. Can't wait to get back there! Mondays are half price Mojito nights, and they have a happy hour, too. Can only recommend it! Pricewise it's very reasonable, too, considering that they are in downtown Walnut Creek.
What an awesome place! This was my first time at this great restaurant! There was an hour waiting time to get in (without a reservation), but the hostess and wait staff were very accommodating. There were six of us and we were able to snag a table in the bar area. The hostess later came by and apologized that we had to wait so long and bought us a pitcher of mojitos! The live music was energizing and fun and although it was a small area to dance, no one seemed to mind! Oh, and the food was great too! What a fun night!

Intimate setting,perfect for a datenight, or girls night! Good food, good service, the Honeydew Basil mojito was the absolute best!!! Will definitely go back again.
Great mojito’s. Great appetizers. I loved this place. Can’t wait to come back.
Favorite restaurant in Walnut Creek! Great owners, super food and a fun menu! They have something for everyone, steak, chicken, fish and veggie options - you won't be sorry you went here.
Food very tasty and good portions, good atmosphere, excellent drinks. Our server out of this world. We will be back
Last night I celebrated my Birthday early with a few of my girlfriends from work. We use Havana Catering for my work lunches and Claudia Lemus the catering coordinator was nice enough to make a dinner reservation for us. We walked in and was greeted and seated right away. I heard this restaurant was known for delicious Mojitos so I ordered the Virgin HoneyDew Melon Mojito. It was delicious! For dinner I had the Bistec a La Havana with the Sofrito Rice and Cuban Corn. The flavors were excellent and I finished my whole plate. They also surprised me with a Birthday Flan wish they sang to me. Havana was amazing. Great Ambiance, Friendly staff and Delicious food! I will definitely come back again! �
Our all time favorite Walnut Creek restaurant! Zack and his team are amazing at everything they do! Best tapas I've ever had! Try the Scallops, Shrimp ceviche, pitchers of mojitos by all means! Everything on the menu is fabulous and we go there often and even celebrated a 50th bday party in the side room for 25 people and it was equally fabulous!

Mojito Mondays and Consistently Good Food. Havana is a great place for drinks and dinner. It's noisy but fun and while the food isn't 10 out of 10 it's always a solid 8. And you can't beat the half-price mojitos all day Monday.
Mojitos, mojitos, mojitos! The halibut ceviche is delicious, the plantain-crusted pacific cod is a must, and did I mention the mojitos? The one downside (and it's a bit glaring) is that they don't take reservations for parties of less than 8, so be prepared to wait.
We loved the tequila mojitos! and the sea bass is amazing! one of our regular WC spots!
Great Food-Excellent......... Take your wife, girlfriend or if you just want to show friends you gave great taste, take them to Havanna, you will not be disapointed........
Food is consistent and acceptable. Good for larger group dinners. Coffee very disappointing and rather weak.
The atmosphere is nice but a bit noisy the food is good but overpriced. Plantains are cheap and easy to prepare so why do they charge so much $$! Overall, it's a nice place to hangout with friends!
"Cuban escape" Home of the best mojitos you will find in the bay. My favorite is the Mango Mojito. Never fails & the platano is absolutely blended well.
Mojotos are awesome and ALWAYS a lot of pretty women
Always Good!. Love the fish at dinner and the Cuban for lunch. Theirs is the best I have ever had!
Used them to cater an event at my women's club. Nickki did an outstanding job! I am still getting rave reviews for the girls.
It is nice to see a "unchain" restaurant make it!
The food is decent not the best Carribean food out there but good. Worth trying. The appitizers are great along with the mojitos. The atmosphere is fun and very festive.
Mojito time!. Happy hour at Havana is great...you'll get all the mojito for half price...!!!!!!!!!!!! the appies are great.
La carne aaasa era muy sabroso.
I think the Mojitos are why this place is so popular... but, hey they are good! And the food is better than average, to be sure.
Great place for date nights or happy hour. Fun lively atmosphere. Food was good but a bit pricey. You totally get your money's worth though. Went there for wedding anniversary. It's nice they honor a reservation system.
The chimichuri lamb chops were TO DIE FOR! My first Cuban cuisine and it was worth it. It was also Mojito Monday. We had pineapple passion fruit mojitos that were AMAZING. Will be coming here every time I visit my cousin!
Stopped by for a quick bite. We dined outside.. Ash was our server and gave us wonderful suggestions on drinks and food choices.We had the Mango Habinero Mojito, Pineapple Blood Moon Mojito & the Honeydew Basil Mojito which were all excellent.
We had a few Tapas to wait for dinner which were enough to share between three adults. Dinner arrived in a short time.
All in all the atmosphere was pleasant. Great customer service. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
One of the best Cuban food i have ever try. Try the dish "Ropa Vieja" wondefull taste. Very same dish of Venezuelam pabellon criollo for those Venezuelans like me. Super clean place too.
I had a great experience at Havana. Regina was a wonderful first impression and I had the pleasure of having Angel as my server. Both are very pleasant people. The Cuban sandwich was great and I’ll be sure to come back. The outdoor seating is nice.
Tapas and pull pork main entre were good. Service was good. Unfortunately our outdoor table was kind of crooked so we were eating on a slanted surface. Should be a quick fix for the service team. They were attentive to everything else though.
