This was recommended by our hotel, and they were right on. They told us they had killer cocktails. So true. They told us it was funky and eclectic – absolutely. And they told us the food was great. They didn’t lie. Fun place. Great vibe. Comfortable and welcoming. Fun menu with lots of unusual food pairings. Everything is tapas style and menu changes frequently. We had 8 dishes for three of us and everyone was great, well presented and yummy. My fav was the black pudding! Really. Not only great cocktails, but also a very nice wine list. When I next return to Wellington I will also return to Havana.
interesting and fun vibes, the staff were also highly attentive and friendly. however, as the restaurant was full, we had to be moved to the bar which was less warm and inviting, it was also pretty quiet for a friday night. we ordered the crispy potatoes, sautéed prawns, maori bread w dip, pan fried mushrooms and poached cauliflower. highlights include the crispy potatoes — great portion, certainly crispy, salty, hot and overall tasty; the sautéed prawns which were mouthwateringly flavourful and also, the poached cauliflower, this worked beautifully with the aged cheddar, truffle and prune, a combo im not familiar with but incredibly excited about! the maori bread was warm and so soft, it worked surprisingly well with the dip. the pan fried mushrooms were the only let down, by the time they had reached our table they were almost cold. however, flavour wise, they were relatively enjoyable. overall, i had an enjoyable experience and look forward to returning!
Arrived at 7ish where all the bar was almost full. We grabbed some tapas and some drinks. All the food and drinks were fairly good. We loved the potatoes so much. The price was a bit high for tapas but quite reasonable with the atmosphere.
The coolest bar in nz! NOT a lot for vegans but the crushed potatoes, mushroom dish and YAMS were yummo went with 5 others who said their food was amazingThe staff were excellent just such a wicked spot well done guys!
Delicious food and lovely ambience. Definitely recommend the beef brisket! The sangria was very yummy. The decor was very cute and staff were very friendly
My first time to be here having met some friends for a few drinks. It’s a little gem that’s hidden from the main thoroughfare, and I’m not surprised it’s one of the fav haunts of some of my mates. The ambiance was really nice; staff were friendly; no blaring music that drowns the conversations. There was a wide range of drinks, from cocktails, beers, to liquors. It was a very good experience and would definitely recommend to other friends.
This unorthodox hidden gem is a well known secret and is located right behind campus. Coincidence? Went in with a group of friends on a regular Friday looking to be amazed and we were after seeing the quirky decor. The whole Fidel Castro, Cuban theme running through Wellington at the moment, you know the one. Anyway after being shocked by the length of the menu we decided on some Sangria to share as well as a few Hasta Mananas because they were so close to my name that I ended up folding because of it. The cuban cigar based concoction although left us $28 a glass lighter, the whole experience was (almost) worth the price. After our expensive cocktails we choose one other and I picked flowerbomb which was delicious and affordable. Overall the waitstaff are really quick and seem to know when you’re thirsty, also not a coincidence. I love this place and I do recommend it if you’re wallets bloated.
