Habana Hemingway Cafe - Williamsburg

This place was outstanding! We went on a Wednesday night and learned that they do salsa dancing. We didn't participate that night but want to in the near future! The food was wonderful and full of flavor as well. It reminded me of when I used to live in South Florida when I was a kid.

I had a mojito at la Bodequita del Medio , where cuban Mojito come from and the way this cubans make it Habana Hemingway is the real cuban way , on the other hand the cuban sandwich in my opinion better that the one you get in Miami , Im cuban myself and when I say this is the real deal is because it is !!!!!! cuban girl Leticia served me super professional !

I grew up in Havana cuba and I try first the Food truck food and it took me back home , better than Florida for the one who compare cuban food with Florida food , Number one is not the same In my opinion cuban food is better !!! , I try their cuban Sandwich the first time on the Food Truck , then I try the Pollo habanero! man it was the Best to the Best . I when to the Restaurant for the first Time and my Wife love it , my wife is american and she love everything about the Habana Hemingway the decoration , the presentation food music etc . This is my new favorite spot !!! we will be back ! I think everyone should try La Picada Platter , man ! I will hit the Bar next time !!!!

The food is really good and reasonably priced. The restaurant is cute but was super empty when we went for lunch on a Monday. However, the food came out quickly and the chicken panini was very good. We also got the mango chicken and that was great. I would recommend for anyone in the area, especially if you are visiting Busch Gardens, it is nearby.

Cuban food by definition is delicous not spicy), generous in portions and cheap. However, My family all loved it. I started us out with Mariquitas thinly shaved plantain fried with garlic sauce) and Croquetas de Jamon ham croquettes) Definitely this are Home made Croquetas super good . My family was won over and so will yours be. Another option would be Papa Rellenas a deep fried potato ball stuffed with meat). We had Bistec Palomilla garlic flank steak), Lechon Asado roats pork), Masitas de Puerco mmmmm , Garlic Shrimp Cammarones Aljillo) all were devoured, all were just as good as in Calle Ocho. The Mojitos were perfect and the Old cuban remembered. The coconut Flan my favorite Cuban Dessert did not disappoint. The Cuban Coffee was perfect with the espuma carmelized sugar foam) Been From Cuba I approve Habana Hemingway as a Authentic Cuban.
