| - Definately A-ok! We came on a Groupon. Located in a kind of run-down strip center peopled by a bunch of punky teens, but pushed past their rude obstructions . We entered a bright and crowded restaurant that was gaily and cheesily decorated in a Carribean motif. We were quickly seated at a two-top and waited on by a nice young girl, who quickly brought us our glasses of wine. Since we aren't real familiar with Cuban food, DH and I decided to start with the appetizer platter: black bean fritters, ham croquettes and chicken croquettes, cuban tamale, chorizo and maduros, accompanied by two delicious sauces. Omgosh, one bite was as delish as the next! DH loved the fritters. I enjoyed it all! Very generous portions...we ate and ate and there was still food on the platter! No way were we going to be able to move on to entrees----bummer! And we hadn't spent our Groupon minimum! Explained the problem to our server, who suggested we order a flan to go. Great idea, and with wine, took us over the top for our Groupon. (The flan along with the leftover appy made a great breakfast!) We really enjoyed the flavorful food, the excellent service and the fun and funky atmosphere. We will so totally be back to try out the entrees. We can ignore the juvenile delinquents to sample Havana Cafe again!
