We celebrated my mom's 90th birthday lunch there yesterday and had the best service ever. Food was amazing and to Jade and her team...a huge thank you !! Jade is an absolute super star... and went the extra mile plus some more. As the Pietersen family...we would like to thank you and want to recommend Little Havana as one of the best!
fantastic fillet steak and the best dessert ever! Check out the “Not quite a cheeseboard” dessert. Heaven on a plate. Just delicious 🤤
The food was delicious 😋 I had fatty and tasty bone marrow. My colleague's had nachos which apparently are out of this world!! Followed by lamb chops with mushroom risotto, the risotto was so delicious.
The service was alright, except for, the food arrived very late. The place was packed!!
The portions were also rather big.

The stand out thing about this place was the slightly “different offerings on their menu”. So, for example I had deep fried tempura broccoli with a really tasty dipping sauce to start.
Their portions were also bigger than expected which is always pleasant!
We went as a group of colleagues which I think this was a great setting for.
The only thing I was weary of is their “we don’t split bills” disclaimer, if we’re going as a group of colleagues we need to split the bills and the mystery WiFi password 🧐. They ended up obliging to the bill split request and whispering the WiFi to each of us though which was great sportsmanship.
Had dinner here last night. It such a relaxed spot mixed with fine dining. The staff is also really friendly and helpful. I had the 200g fillet of steak with mushroom sauce. The steak was PERFECT and so succulent and tender👌🏽. I had it on a bed of the most lush mushroom risotto 😋😋. Hats off to the chef.
Just came back from a lovely evening celebrating my mums 65th birthday at Little Havana. We were a party of four. Sam our waitor was absolutely lovely and the manager was attentive.
Food was extremely good, we ordered:
the grilled prawns, chumichuri sirloin, fillet, seared sesame crusted tuna with a fillet on the bone. For starters we shared a starter portion of deep fried calamari with aioli. Then dessert was creme brulee and a bread and butter pudding with vanilla icecream . Overall the portions was generous, good quality food, lovely atmosphere and great service. Everything we ate smelled amazing and the food didnt dissappoint!
I will definitely go back and support this restaurant
Great music, lovely vibe, beautiful deco and atmosphere all added to my mums special night.
The added touch of writing my mums happy birthday message and name in chocolate was a fabulous touch and much appreciated.
Amazing food, generous portions, brilliant service and a great dining experience.

The name does not match the decor
The food is good nothing amazing
Just a good dinner. Salmon was perfectly cooked
The wine list is impressive
The service is good
Food was sublime. Service was efficient and friendly and had one of the best apple cake desserts ever!!!
Restaurant itself looks elegant. Just missing the music to create a more ambient atmosphere.
Beautiful restaurant, great service, great food. Everytime i visit Little Havana the standard seems to go higher and higher. Their steaks are always done to perfection and Im not into dessert that much but I must say their desserts are a must have. This restaurant is in my top 5 all time favourites.
This restaurant was a bit pricey but it was completely worth it! Ive never had such good food and amazing service!
I came here with a large group (about 11) of people for a friend's birthday and they were very accommodating and professional.
Loved this experience

The vegetarian stir fried vegetables is really good. Great spot to dine at on a Friday night. Make a reservation to guarantee a good table.
Had my birthday in the private room. The food was really good and tasty. All 3 courses were excellent. Staff was so helpful and friendly with all the guests. It's definitely worth visiting or having a function
Either management or ownership change as its not the same but still great, wonderful ambiance to be for a relaxed evening. Nice set up, clean and tidy.
We were served by the lovely, cheerful Nicole and truly made our evening ♥️ 👍🏾🙏🏾👏🏾🤞🏾👌🏾🫱🏻🫲🏾 spectacular. Delicious food. Tried a different dessert but brownie & ice cream is still my favourite. Books are needed to avoid disappointment.
The food and the atmosphere were good. The restaurant was not crowded while I was there for dinner. The complementary bread was soft and fresh out of the oven, and the sirloin with steamed vegetables and Rum & BBQ sauce was delicious. However, they sprinkled some course salt on the meat, which I didn't really like. The sirloin had a bit of fat to it, which I was not fond of. I ended up eating the meal without the sauce as it was tastier. I also had a double chocolate brownie dessert. However, the brownie was not soft enough to put a spoon through.
Lovely intimate setting, wonderful wait staff paid attention to detail. The food was wonderful, definitely recommend the bang bang prawns as a starter. Mains were hot and just as I asked for, dessert was rich and delightful. Perfect for a partners night out or special intimate occasion.
One of my favourite restaurants! The food and value for money is impeccable. The service is always great as well.
The venue is attractive and service is good. I ordered an ostrich steak without olives, & it came with olives & was overcooked. (They did offer me another meal, but the ostrich was tasty.) My wife and daughter had excellent ribeye steak and prawns and great dessert. Prices were reasonable.
Celebrated a birthday party in their private room with 3 course meal lunch.
The service and food were very good.
Had the potatoe skins, hake and chips and dessert of the day, Panna cotta. Everything was prepared perfectly.
There was a miscommunication about the times to use the room, however it was resolved. Really appreciated the service and communication from the manager and waitresses.
An amazing restaurant with awesome food (don’t miss the fries that are fried with cold pressed macadamia oil) and even better wine selection.
And the best part is that this exquisite experience is very affordable
Highly recommended!
Blessing was our waiter. She was a gem. The calamari was amazing and the tartar sauce the best I ever had. My friend had Kingklip and was just as satisfied. The chips was also exceptionally good.
If I come to Umhlanga again, I will visit for sure again!
Celebrated my sister's graduation here & it was one for the books. My whole family really enjoyed the intimate setting, the staff service (shout out to the lovely lady Nicole) who catered to all our needs attentively even for such a big group & even the pleasant surprise to congratulate the graduate. Generous portions indeed , with unique flavours that stimulate the pallet. I could go on but there certainly needs to be another visit ,....soon !
