Service very very good and food was excellent.
Tab with tip for 5 was $60.
We have decided to put Havana back in the rotation  |
Lucky you! We got to Havana around 7 PM after you. We were given seats at a booth and menus. No one bothered to tell us about the special 2 for $19.95.
Wife ordered Ropa Vieja which turned out to be as tough as manila rope.
I ordered the Citrus Atlantic Salmon. The dinner salad came out 20 minutes after the server took my salmon order. I was just about finished eating the salad when the server appeared at our table to tell me that they were out of salmon and I could order something else. A half hour had already elapsed but I soldiered on and ordered the broiled haddock keeping my fingers crossed. I already had chosen a baked potato and chef's veggies as sides. After another 15 ninutes the broiled haddock appeared on the table. The veggie side dish was a soggy disaster. The only success story was the baked potato.
The service was below par. Our server somehow forgot that he was our server and we did not see him for most of the nite. Our drink refills were taken care of by I guess by whomever was available. We finished eating and waited for our server who didn't seem to be around. Meanwhile we spied some friends at another table behind us so we got up and went over to say hello. In the few minutes we were gone, someone bused the table but there was no check. So now we sat at an empty table waiting to catch our sewrver for the check. We probably just could have walked out at that point and no one would have been the wiser. Our server finally did show up and appologized and blamed the kitchen for not telling him there was no more salmon, blah, blah, blah.
Needless to say, Havana remains on our crap list.
