Since its opening back in 2008, the Havana CC Restaurant has gotten progressively worse. it has changed operational management several times and to no improvement. Recently it was closed for TWO DAYS, and to better explain the reason click on the LINK below, and see the most recent comments about the roaches and other violations. YOU DECIDE if you really want to eat there when management/owners really do not seem to care to get their act together.
They were closed last week for two days. The link below may help you understand if you had not heard.

Violations: A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below. The department cites violations of Florida's sanitation and safety laws, which are based on the standards of U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Food Code. High Priority violations are those which could contribute directly to a food borne illness or injury and include items such as cooking, reheating, cooling and hand-washing. Intermediate violations are those which, if not addressed, could lead to risk factors that contribute to food borne illness or injury. These violations include personnel training, documentation or record keeping and labeling. Basic violations are those which are considered best practices to implement. While most establishments correct all violations in a timely manner (often during the inspection), the division's procedures are designed to compel compliance with all violations through follow-up visits, administration action or closure when necessary.
