We came to El Matatan for a team dinner. The ambiance was…read morenice, relaxing, modern and moody. Service was friendly and to-the-point. For the table we ordered chips and guacamole, The guac was fresh, chips were tostada style, extra crunch was perfect for my taste. Personally I like a little more spice to my guac, but it was good and everyone at the table enjoyed it. For dinner I got the Surf n Turf tacos, they come with a side of white rice. They were delicious, packed with meat and veggies. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. small note: the two plantains on my plate were amazingly good, I'd actually trade the rice for more of those. I eyed the Burger one of our friends got and it looked amazing- I think I'll be back to try that burger out. I definitely recommend for a special night out, date night or group.

I highly recommend the chicken with el mojo or the picadillo. Personally, I'd skip the empanadas, even though they swear that's what they're known for. The service is always friendly, although it can be a little slow at times. I also really appreciate that they have both indoor and outdoor seating, especially when I bring my dog. Overall, I'm glad Bella Cuba has stayed open all these years. It's a neighborhood spot by the mall that I'm always happy to come back to

My husband and I came to Habana in Costa Mesa to celebrate our anniversary, and we had such a…read morelovely experience! We made a reservation ahead of time, and when we arrived, our table was decorated with rose petals and a cute anniversary card. Such a thoughtful little detail that made our celebration feel extra special! For food, I ordered my usual, the Ropa Vieja, and it's honestly a 10/10 every time! The meat is always packed with flavor, and their rice is literally my favorite! My husband ordered the New York steak, which was super buttery, tender, and seared to perfection. We also ordered a side of their Caribbean fries, and the dipping sauce was SO good! For drinks, my husband ordered El Cubanito, which was really good! I went with the Agua de Coco, which literally comes served in a coconut! I also ordered a shot of their Havana Club Añejo to go with it, and I loved the combination. Definitely something I would order again! Overall, such a wonderful experience! Between the delicious food, drinks, and the thoughtful anniversary setup, it made our evening feel even more special. Habana continues to be one of my favorite spots, and I would absolutely recommend it, especially for a date night or special occasion!

The whole vibe is on point with a great wait staff and delicious food. Had reservations for 7:15 pm and was immediately seated. Waiter stop by to introduce himself and took our drink order for 2 old fashioned cocktails. Started off with the chicken empanadas and for the main Ropa Vieja of course. My guest went with the Ranchera Asada, which I was able to sample. Another delicious dish but my favorite still stands. For dessert the flan. Made fresh daily. Can't go wrong here. No complaints and no regrets. I will be back again soon. On to the next....

Went to ISLA for lunch with a client. I've never really had Cuban food before, so I wasn't sure…read morewhat to expect, but the food was really good. We started with the ceviche and empanadas. The ceviche was a little sweet, which was different, but still really good. The empanadas were good too, we had the beef so next time i want to try a different protein I got the chicken sandwich. Pretty simple, but really good. The fires were good, i like the shoe string ones. My coworker got the habanero salmon and I tried some of hers. I was expecting it to be spicy, but it really wasn't. I don't have a high spice tolerance and it was fine for me. Service was okay, but the restaurant was clean and modern. Prices were pretty reasonable too, especially nowadays. Overall, good food, reasonable prices and for sure somewhere I'd go back to

What a beautiful restaurant! The space is large, gorgeous, and full of character, with great music,…read moreexcellent service, and everything inspired by the vibrant spirit of Havana, Cuba. The atmosphere makes the whole experience feel special, and even the bathroom was worth taking a picture of! The food was delicious! We ordered the shrimp mofongo, and it was hands down the best mofongo we have had so far! The flavors were incredible, and it was definitely the highlight of the meal. We also enjoyed the lechón asado, which was delicious, along with the empanadas and ham croquetas. To complement the food, we tried a rum flight, which was a great addition to the experience. We finished with a bom bom coffee, an espresso with condensed milk that was the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal. Between the delicious food, great drinks, beautiful ambiance, and wonderful service, this place is a must-visit in Irvine. We had such a great time and would absolutely come back!

Everything is great except for the jumping prices. Looking through old pictures of past menus (on…read moreYelp) shows how several price increases in the past 3 years. Price increases in our past three years are certainly expected, however, the hike since April's menu to yesterday (10/3/2026), seems unreasonable. The Churrasco entree (Cuban herb chimichurri with sharp citrus notes) for $50 gives you a very thin skirt steak with a corn cob, white rice, and black beans in a skinny ramekin (tiny, tall egg cup in this instance), whose price seems unjustified. However, $44 dollars would make more sense, including the value-add of the remarkable ambiance and terrific service. The next time, I will ask them how many ounces meat dishes before ordering to negotiate price to product. Be certain to ask for your corn cob to be served off-the-cob: it has sprinkled cotija cheese and a thin coat of unseasoned enchilada sauce on it. The *curved blade of the steak knife that comes with this entree is almost impossible to cut the kernels off of the cob without making a disaster. I asked for more of the churrasco sauce, with a citrus tang that was served minimally, under the skirt steak -- it was also outstanding with the corn and white rice.

The Greek salad was fresh, brightly critrousy. Love the copious arugula and feta cheese. The artichoke was perfectly cooked. The bit of spice was a nice touch. Our favorite was the stuffed mushroom. Delicious! The filing was salty which balanced out the mushroom. Compliments to the chef! Great food, great service, great ambiance. Highly recommended!

We ordered takeout today, and the buñuelos were undercooked inside..doughy, crumbly, and not fully cooked through. They're definitely not supposed to be like that. What made it more disappointing is that they're about $6 each. At that price, I expect much better quality. We also ordered a bandeja paisa. The carne asada was tough and lacked flavor, and the beans honestly tasted canned and bland. Again, I could overlook some of this if the food were reasonably priced, but this plate is over $30. On a positive note, the patacón con todo was good, chorizo had flavor and the jugo de lulo en agua was good and refreshing. Overall, the experience was just okay. It's disappointing to see a place I used to enjoy lose some of its quality over the years. Unfortunately, for the price, I'll probably go elsewhere for Colombian food in the future
