Default Guess Need to go to find out what is the TRUTH

With this post I feel like listening to both FOX and MSNBC. So, we need to check Havana next month. I'll post after visiting there and some one can do the Havana Gallop poll.

Thumbs up Havana Cheese Burgers

My husband and I had burgers at Havana last week and they were delicious! I'm super picky about food and prefer my burgers med/rare with swiss cheese and mushrooms, I also asked for crispy fries and everything was cooked perfectly. The burger was so juicy that I resorted to using a fork to finish it. Really delicious.

You go to Havana. I'll go to Mallory where I won't have to gamble on my food being good.

Maybe someone could get the Manager to come on this site and explain???? Havana seems to get a lot of complaints, but by telling waitress, will probably not change anything. I don't think waitress tells owner???

Doubt that will happen. Back in October my Monday golf group stopped at Havana for drinks. Couple of folks had chili and said it was more of a soup and did not taste good. Waitress went and told the chef who blamed the prep area. Next came a request to see the duty manager. The waitress left and came back with the answer that the manager was too busy to talk to us. The waitress was great and took the charge off of their bills.

We talked to a chef that use to work at Havana. He would use all organic produce and recipes he had picked up from his extensive training. When he wasn't there, Havana would go back to their old ways. He said his paychecks were bouncing and he is no longer there.
So that might explain some of the good meals being when he was there and the not so good meals when he wasn't there. He also said only a few of the waitresses really care about their customers.
Bouncing paychecks is not a good business practice. Sad that one of our country clubs is like this.

Wow "bouncing paychecks"in Florida's Friendliest Town is just plain worrisome. I had a burger at Evans Priarie and thought it was charcoal. Do you think the cook's paycheck bounced there too?

We also have tried Havana 3-4 times without a pleasing experience. Will not return.

My golf group had lunch after golf yesterday (14 of us), and they were very accommodating in seating us together. But even with two waitresses, service was very slow. The restaurant wasn't that busy, so I'm not sure what the delay was in the kitchen or bar. Other than fouling up a few orders, I didn't hear any complaints about the food.
