We went to Havana last night for dinner. This is the first time in months, considering I used to be a regular Monday night customer.

My experience was that is has improved a lot in that it looks like a high-class supper club upon entering. We were seated almost immediately, right next to the grand piano and in the center where we were very close to all the singing.

The young entertainers are absolutely fantastic. Its amazing how talented they are. Truly some of them may be future Broadway performers.

My feelings about the ambiance is, it is not a nice quiet place to enjoy an EXPENSIVE dinner because of all the activity of the singers/waiters walking all around and the noise level is very high. Reminded me of being center stage of a performance of Oklahoma or Mame.

I ordered the salmon which was good but could have been a bit warmer. The veggies were zucchini and squash, not very thrilling. I avoided the garlic potatoes because I am on a diet. It was good, not great. I ordered the cheesecake for dessert and it was totally inedible, very grainy and tasted like chemicals. I told the waitress that I couldn't eat it, and that's saying a lot....

It was an enjoyable evening mostly because of the company I was with but I doubt that I will become a regular.
