    Tacos
    Macarena O.

    I did the terrible mistake of coming for 5 de mayo but I waited the huge line so we could try some of their tacos. We got the grilled chicken, beer batter fish, shrimp and al pastor. My favorites were the shrimp and al pastor, both very flavorful. We also got the elote, a margarita and a beer. Everything was pretty good. They have a large patio and dogs are welcome so that's an extra bonus!

    The space is beautiful to sit in, especially on a sunny day. Very vibrant and energetic space but the food just wasn't good. The grilled chicken was great but the nacho cheddar cheese tasted like cheap highly processed cheese.... did not taste like typical queso. I actually like cotija cheese but it wasn't a good mix. Service was fast I got my food in under 5 minutes.

    Cuban Sandwich
    Anne F.

    My husband and I stumbled upon this restaurant as we were wandering the streets of Brooklyn on a sunny Saturday. Lured by its vibrant signs and outdoor patio, we came in for what was supposed to be a quick look but stayed instead for lunch. And I'm so glad we did. Habana Outpost had the best Cuban sandwich I've ever had. Now, It's important to note that I don't often order Cuban sandwiches, after having tried it a few times and finding it to be dry. Habana's wasn't dry at all. The pulled pork was dripping with jus. The cheeses were melty and held all the elements together. The bread was perfectly panini-pressed and crisp. This excellent sandwich was paired with an equally excellent side of battered crispy fries. Writing this review has my mouth watering and has changed my once-lowly opinion of Cuban sandwiches. I cannot wait to return here in the height of summer when the sun is high, the breeze warm, and the margaritas ice cold.

    Came here for the first time to try out some tacos. The food was okay the tostones were good the freshly made guacamole was very good. The eggplant taco was underwhelming the chicken tacos were good. The steak taco okay and the corn okay. For fast food it was good. To just go outside and get a quick bite good. The ambiance of the place very eccentric layed back feel. The outside seating to me is the best to relax outside talk and get some sun is great. The service was good nothing to brag about you get a number and they bring the food so can't really judge. Good for a quick bite if you feel for tacos to relax and eat.

    Great food and vibes. Nothing better than finding good tacos in the city! The rest of the menu looks so fire too - can't wait to come back

    I hadn't been to Habana Outpost in years but the margaritas are just how I remembered them...delicious. I went back on one of the first warm days and it felt so good to sit outside and enjoy the yard. Can't wait to go back and have their world famous corn.

    I've been here a couple of times and enjoyed myself. One of my close friends hosted a dinner here to celebrate her moving to another city recently. I arrived at 6 pm; during happy hour. The line was relatively short at the time so I was able to order a pina colada (mango) with shrimp tacos, chips and guacamole, and fried corn on a cob. My order came out in a timely manner. Ideally, if you're with a group of people, a pitcher makes sense to get. However, sometimes that option is not available because the machine is down apparently during peak hours. Definitely a great place to come to for food and drinks but be mindful of when you visit. Next time I'll be sure to come on a Wednesday around 4 PM.

    Pretty good tacos, especially loved the fish tacos here. Check out their weekday specials. Service and food prep can take a little longer during peak times and seating isn't always abundant.

    I ordered the nachos. Came with about 11 chips total. They were okay but not nearly enough chips, they told me I need to purchase more. The drink was half off on happy hour for $6 and tastes like battery acid. Nice outside vibes tho

    Great food , drinks and vibes!! Brianna is amazing very welcoming and gives good recommendations!! Will definitely come back

    just good vibes. food. bowl and burrito. excellent. service was v good. cool place. recommend.

    I've been going to Havana since the early 2000's and the food and atmosphere have stayed consistently the entire time. I had tacos on a day warm enough to sit outside and bask in the sun. And the frozen margaritas were top tier

    Habana Outpost is the perfect summer escape for frozen drinks and great times! My office held a going away party for our office manager and the vibes were high! The outdoor seating in the courtyard makes you feel like you are in the middle of the action in Brooklyn but still feels secure and fun. The bright colors and great drinks (happy hour til 7pm is amazing!) make this spot a must try for any summer fun!

    Yes! There are huge screens on the inside towards the back away from the bar that would be more appropriate and less noisy.

    Little Cuban spot close to my significant other's apartment in the east village. Well-known to be…read moreawesome for drinks. I came here to celebrate after a career milestone with some friends. A visually-appealing woody interior with posters lines the wall. Vaguely Cuban accents with a very pleasant crowd. Everyone knows each other here, the staff and patrons, and it's very much a neighborhood feel when I went on a Friday evening. Drinks were strong yet delicious. Me and my significant other got the churrasco (flank steak) and the nachos. The nachos had a ton of substance. Lots of ground meat, a dollop of guac, and sour cream. Cheaper yet still very satisfying. I asked what the server usually gets. She said the flank steak is her favorite so I ordered one of those medium rare. It came out perfectly cooked with a chimichurri sauce and served with rice and beans. Super packed with flavor and yummy. My girlfriend is not a fan of "slabs of meat" but really couldn't give enough of this meal. Overall, successful meal. I found great value in this visit

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while, and finally visited with a group of 5. We were…read moreable to get a table without a reservation at around 6:00 pm on the first Saturday night of the New Year. We were warmly greeted by one of the servers before being seated at a table near the window. The standout dishes we enjoyed were the Ropa Vieja, Salmon, and the Calamares Ricardo. The Red Sangria was also solid. While the guacamole in the guac and chips was good, I think they used store bought Tostitos for the chips:( Our group wasn't that fond of the Tres Leche either, as it was a bit grainy and covered in chocolate sauce. While service started off strong in the beginning, it declined throughout our meal. Came to learn that an automatic tip was added, which may explain why. If you're in the area, it's worth giving it a try, but I wouldn't go out of my way to dine here.
