   It’s a great hidden place with life Cuban music and the whole ambience that makes you feel like you’re in Havana. The only negative is that it’s waaaaay overpriced! They charged us $300 for a hamburger, a hotdog, a half dozen ousters with salad, plus a couple cocktails. It’s a real ripoff. Otherwise, a great place ;-)

   We came to celebrate my friends bday. Both her and I love Cuba so the code and ambience was wonderful. Loved how the owner got us up to teach us how to cha cha. It was different and interactive. The food is very expensive and in my opinion it was not worth the price. My ribeye was a third of fat chunks for $98. Our food order was messed up horrible but they comped the cover to make up for it. It is a very nice experience and I do recommend trying it. Just be prepared to spend some money.

   My coworker and I went for a business dinner. Everything was well- the small crowd, the live band, and the servicers were great!!!!!!

   For date night this was an amazing experience. Live music Cuban style. The menu was great. The drinks were very tasty but very pricey minimum of $30 per drink no matter what you ordered. The cloak and dagger speakeasy feel was amazing.  it reminded me of the continental hotel from the movie John Wick highly recommend recommended.

   This place has two seatings per night, so we were "thrown out" after the entrees were served. If you think you will have dinner there and spend the night dancing forget it!

    I wish I had read reviews first. Automatic 22% , EXTREMELY OVERPRICED DRINKS, Automatic Charge For Reservation with NO CREDIT TO BILL. That's right when your bill is $200 plus for 2 people with NO FOOD because it will be . You will get charged the extra you made the reservation here on Open Table. You would think it's just to guarantee you will show up because the room only holds 50 people or credit for the bill. But NO! I don't mind spending money on a great experience as my history shows, but this was not a good experience at all. The only good thing about this place was the band. Great volume level , a great music selection.

    Hello Tony, We're truly sorry to hear about your recent experience at Emilia's Havana. We understand your frustration with the charges and the miscommunication regarding the bill. The amount you deposited is the entertainment fee for the Latin band that performs. I apologize if this wasn't explained to you in more detail. I would be happy to invite you back in the future and waive the entertainment fee as a courtesy. Best, Shaun Stockton General Manager
