    I really enjoy coming here for the ambiance and great service. It is always fun and so energetic. My family and I enjoy coming here to celebrate our birthdays. The only thing that I suggest is the portions of the food, I feel like they are very small for the price. The bean portions come in a very small cup and the rice is a very very small portion. Overall, if you are looing for delicious food, a great ambiance and great service. You must try this place!

    Asked for standard indoor seating and said its for a special occasion and they did not reserve a nice spot but rather a spot on the corner of a squished table. We had to get our own water and server couldn’t even take a photo and I had to go outside to ask??? Hit or miss…beware

    What a fantastic brunch experience at Habana! Came here with a group of 5 and we were all blown away. The buffet had so many delicious options — from fresh seafood to tasty Cuban dishes and decadent desserts. Big thanks to Emmanuel R. for his stellar service. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we never wanted for anything. Also want to highlight Milton, the manager, for stopping by to check on us and making us feel so welcome. All around amazing food, great value, and a lively atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!

    I have always loved Habana... the original one is at the anti-mall in Costa Mesa, which is the only one that I have been to previously. This one opened right before the pandemic and I finally made it here!! It is absolutely huge and absolutely stunning. The interiors are amazing the music and the waitstaff outfits make you really feel like you've gone to Havana! Tonight we had Ruby as our waitress, and she was exceptional! We had a few appetizers along with a picture of sangria, and then individual dinners which I will post photos of below. We started with Chicken Empanadas, ( which were so good. We ordered two orders for four people), Croquettes de Jamón. For dinner we tried the Ceviche Tropical with French Fries, Paella a La Habana with Lobster Tails ( so vague service for one was plenty for the two of us) and Ropa Vieja. All of our entrées were delicious! I would say come hungry because the portions are large and the food very filling. It is such a sensory experience. I can't wait to go back!

    We were there in the afternoon so very quiet but perfect for conversation. Food was delicious. I strongly recommend the Ropa Vieja. Delicious. Great vibe at the Irvine Spectrum location.

    We had a wonderful day at Habana in Irvine Spectrum! We went for Sunday Father's Day. We arrived at 330pm and were able to get brunch options and dinner brunch options. The food was fabulous! It’s rare to find a buffet that’s both clean and serves great food, but this place delivered on both. The service was exceptional. We sat in the outside patio area near the buffet. Adrian was a fantastic host who made us feel so welcome. He was especially helpful with our two toddlers (ages 3 and 4), which made the experience even more enjoyable. We’re definitely coming back, and next time we’re bringing our extended family! Thanks Adrian! You are the best!
