Kimchi: I was dying to come here again to get the pork belly dinner entree because I loved it the last time I came here. Well guess what, they didn’t have it on the menu, lol. We went for New Year’s Eve, so there was a “special” dinner menu and it didn’t include it. I moped a little bit because of that.

Kimchi: Ropa Vieja was delicious, although I’m not sure I would get it again? It’s comforting and the shredded pork meat is tender and goes great with the other sides, but I feel like I could get a cheap and dirty version at a hole in the wall Latino restaurant.

Kimchi: I felt like this dish was even better than the last time I had it. The crusted chicken was much crispier this time. As usual, the sauce was very yummy; I wish they gave you more on the side!

All in all, I still really like Habana. Put on your hipster clothing to blend in and come on in. There’s some pretty yummy food, and the atmosphere is very romantic with the dim lights and candles. The food is priced kinda high though, of course.
