It was fun and exciting and super good food

Perfect place to spend International Rum Day! Enjoyed the rum flights but will probably go back to our favorites-mojitos.

Great menu items - Can be a bit of a wait if you do not have a reservation. Also, there are some outside seating but only a few tables so expect to wait for those. Noise level is pretty high in this place - at 11pm they clear out the tables for salsa dancing. I met up w/ some friends there and we all enjoyed our meals and drinks - prices are good given the location and food quality.

The food, service and overall experience was wonderful. Had the ceviche mixto and chimichangas as the appetizers. The ceviche came with fried plaintains as well as chips which was amazing. The chimichangas were in a delicious sauce that made you want more.

Then entrees were delicious! I believe I had the pollo coco limón. Came with delicious grilled veggies and the sauce went so well with the chicken.

Let’s not forget the drinks! Wonderful tasting monjitos. My favorite was the coconut mojito. So refreshing and the coconut complimented the mint and lime flavors.

I will definitely be back!

This is a small, no frills place but I loved the "vaca frita" and the congrí. Both items were very flavorful. I would definitely go back.

Great authentic Cuban food with choices for everyone. Friendly staff to answer all your questions & Great Mojito’s !

The food was well prepared and very good. The service was good and the waitress was informative.

Loved the great Cuban inspired the food. The mojitos were outstanding.

Food and service was ok, but it was way too noisy. I needed ear plugs!

outstanding food and service; maybe the best Cuban restaurant in Chicago and certainly the best in the downtown/River North area. Very innovative menu and a great value.

My wife is Cuban and I am in love with Cuban cuisine. I was in Chicago for business and found Havana on OpenTable and decided to give it a try. The tostones were great as well as the ropa vieja. Nice place with friendly service.

Great food and drinks. I guess they were short staffed. We had to wait for while to find our server.

Cocktails were ok, food was made for tourist or white people taste buds, and service was unbelievable slow. Will not be back, too many good places in the city to eat instead or I’ll just wait till I go home to FL.

We had a very nice time at Havana. Small outside seating area and we were able to get a table on a nice Thursday evening. Pitcher of mojitos was great. The empenadas and ceviche were delicious. We enjoyed the pulled pork. Noise level is loud, so fun with the ambiance. Probably not the place if you are looking to have a serious conversation.

My first time going to Havana was not great. We went as a group of co-workers all celebrating birthdays within the last week. My order came out incorrect (I was served beef instead of the chicken I requested). The waitress initially tried to tell me I was wrong and it was chicken - nope. Once the right dish was served, it honestly wasn't very good. The enchilada sauce just kind of tasted like hot sauce.

It’s a great place with a great atmosphere. Lots of great Cuban food option. Which is hard to find so far north of Miami.

Had the steak marinated with tequila and it was amazing! My server was so kind, also.

Loud but amazing food!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the city for a Friday night. Great food. Good value and awesome location.

For was excellent with some unique and rich, delicious sauces.

Vibe, service and rice & bean superior. Plantains and steak cubano very good. I'd take a pass on the fried yucca and roasted pork. I'd eat here again but maybe take the time to see what entrees patrons like most

Good food, reasonable price but it was so loud I had to speak so loud to my friends

I wish this place wasn’t so charming and the food wasn’t so great. I would like to find new places to eat when visiting Chicago but we keep coming back. My wife and I have brought other friends here and they have all loved it as well.
I’ve tried several menu items and all are great. Just can’t say enough. Daily drink specials. You have to try it. It’s like you stepped into Havana, Cuba.
That’s Havana for another great night.

We were recently in Chicago for a week and went to Havana on our second night. We loved the shrimp skewers so much we had to go back before we left. The porkchops are also outstanding.

We loved our dinner! The service was excellent! The wait staff was extremely attentive and quick to respond to our needs. I can't wait to come back again soon!

Wonderful, authentic food. Great service. Absolutely fantastic. Will definitely go next time we are in Chicago.

Havana is a fun restaurant. Not the best cubano sandwich but everything else was delicious. I strongly recommend the mango martini!

Food and service is excellent. Inside feels like you are in Miami eating Cuban food. Monitor flights were wonderful. Place was energetic but even beyond with levels making conversation difficult. Still I would go back.

Love this little restaurant!

Server was not interested in waiting on us and more interested with talking to other wait staff.

A must visit if you are in Chicago. One of the city's hidden gems.

Had a great tome sipping Mojitos and eating delicious Cuban food. Loved it!!

I Great to experience Miami with out ever leaving the city. Great food , Atmosphere,and drinks.

I selected this venue based upon the amazing reviews; however, I was extremely disappointed in the level of service provided all around. It was my birthday and I wasn’t expecting anything fancy...just a good time.

A party came after us that was seated before us since their reservation was earlier, although they provided this information after the fact.

Our server took our appetizer order order and walked off mid-order, proceeding to take selfies with another table of ladies whom were inebriated and having a grand time (wish I’d been with them).

Upon receiving our appetizers realized we needed to save room for the dinner and asked for new napkins and it appeared we were speaking a foreign language.

We would have ordered more drinks and probably entrees to go for he next day; however, again, service was on the phone and people were upset some guys wanted to watch the playoffs instead of baseball.

The food was great and I would recommend more for a girls night out. Not a wonderful dinner experience.

Empanadas were amazing

Great restaurant! Food and service were outstanding.
Will definitely go every time we visit Chicago!

First time here for my husband and I - great food & drinks!!
