Old's Havana Cuban Bar & Cocina

This was the most satisfying restaurant we visited during our trip to Miami! 🇨🇺 After being disappointed by several expensive restaurants in Miami Beach that were just average in terms of food, we had an amazing experience at Old's Havana Cuban Cuisine. We arrived a little after 11 AM, and there were plenty of seats available. Our server, Gipsia, welcomed us and even let us choose whichever table we liked. She was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our visit. She also took the time to show us photos of different menu items and gave us recommendations, which was very helpful. The Cuban sandwich was outstanding! The pork was incredibly flavorful, and the cheese complemented the meat and bread perfectly. It was far better than we expected and absolutely delicious. For an appetizer, we ordered a pork dish that came with a choice of soup. I can't quite remember the options (I think one was chicken soup), but Gipsia recommended one of them and it turned out to be the perfect choice. It was warm, hearty, full of ingredients, and paired wonderfully with our cocktails. We also enjoyed a Cuba Libre and a Mojito, both of which were excellent. And of course, we finished with Cuban coffee and dessert. The coffee had a subtle sweetness and a rich flavor that made it the perfect ending to the meal. Highly recommended! If you're visiting Miami and want to try authentic Cuban food, this place is definitely worth a visit.

We visited Old’s Havana Cuban Bar & Cocina during our trip to Little Havana and had a really nice experience. The atmosphere and service were very good, with a lively Cuban vibe and beautiful outdoor seating that made the experience feel very authentic and relaxing. We tried the Cuban sandwich, a breaded fish sandwich, croquetas, and coconut mocktails. The coconut mocktails were especially delicious and refreshing. The food overall was good and enjoyable, although nothing very extraordinary. What really stood out was the ambiance and the experience of being in Little Havana with the music, energy, and tropical setting around us. Definitely a nice place to stop while exploring the area!

Absolutely loved this place! We sat outside and it was a lovely atmosphere. The food was incredible, and our server, Gipsia, was the best. She was so helpful and gave us her recs for what to order — we ended up ordering everything she recommended and every dish was delicious. If I can recommend one thing, it would definitely be the Churrasco. The steak is so tender, and the chimichurri sauce it comes with pairs perfectly. One of my favorite restaurants I’ve been to in Miami — couldn’t recommend it enough!

From the moment we walked up and spoke to the host, the customer service was immaculate. It’s also very beautiful in there and well kept, Having the perfect mixture of nature, outdoor outdoors, and restaurant atmosphere. The food was absolutely the cherry on top. My best friend and I were unfamiliar with Cuban cuisine and we were able to speak with the waitress about what options there were. We decided to just order something and the food was delicious. No negative comments at all— Great job!

Old’s Havana is one of those rare places that everyone tells you is a “must try,” and somehow it still exceeds the hype. From the moment you walk through the doors until the second you pay the tab, the entire experience feels almost unworldly. There’s an energy to the restaurant that immediately transports you somewhere else. It doesn’t feel like a themed restaurant trying to imitate Cuban culture—it feels alive, warm, vibrant, and authentic. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure every guest feels cared for. You can tell they genuinely want you to have the perfect meal and an unforgettable experience. Nothing feels rushed. There’s a rhythm to the place, a hospitality that makes you want to stay longer than you planned. The live music drifting through the restaurant is the perfect touch. It isn’t overpowering or gimmicky; it wraps around the room like a heartbeat and turns dinner into something memorable. It makes Old’s Havana feel like the soul of Little Havana itself. And then there’s the food. Absolutely incredible. Every bite feels rich with flavor and care, the kind of food that makes the whole table go quiet for a second because everyone is too busy enjoying it. Melt-in-your-mouth good is honestly the best way to describe it. You can taste the tradition in every dish. What I appreciated most is that Old’s Havana is not just hype and not just another tourist trap built for Instagram photos. It feels genuine. It feels personal. It feels like stepping into a little piece of Cuba right in the middle of the United States. The atmosphere, the music, the people, and the food all come together to create something special. If you are visiting Little Havana, this is not optional. It’s an experience you will remember long after the meal is over.
