Cafe Habana

an affordable, down and dirty cuban diner that is packed nightly with gorgeous people

an affordable, down and dirty cuban diner that is packed nightly with gorgeous people wanting to chow down on the restaurant's specialty -- roasted corn covered in cotija cheese and sprinkled with chili and lime. if the wait is too long, try the takeout stall next door. or, schlep to brooklyn to their sister restaurant, habana outpost, an environmentally friendly space that is powered by solar energy and features flea markets and movies on weekends.

my favorite restaurant in New York City - thank you, Cristina, for adding it! great ford, huge portions, low prices, beautiful people, strong cocktails - all of this makes a short wait worthwile!

This place is such a nice surprise - I love being there, and nibbling on great Cuban food. The long wait can be a drag though - especially during cold winter nights.
