I told our waitress to give my complements to the cook for what he was able to do with a piece of horse meat. We both laughed and talked about the meat. She said she would let the manager know right away. He/She did not come by our table. We enjoyed the meal overall, but for 16.95 it was a very low grade cut of meat. I have had great steak at Kattie Bells and Nancy Lopez but this one last night looked like pork. It was very flat, about 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick with lots of tendons and fat. I may be wrong, but I do not believe it was even from the NY Strip part of a cow. I do like the course, the club house, the atmosphere and the friendly staff, but will not order beef again. I see good comments here about other meals at the Havana. I will give them a try before completely giving up on this location. We live on the east end of Duval so the Havana is very close and convenient to the house. But, I also feel that a trained cook/chef or a manager with any concern for customer satisfaction would never let that piece of meat leave the kitchen. Now, the cold beer for $2.75 and two of them at that is unbelievable. Those same two beers would have run the bill up by $7.00 at my club in Georgia. So, you see although I am pointing out my experience, I am not really complaining. Again, considering service and cost, I left the Havana Club happy. Now thats all I got to say about that.
