Havana Grill

I'm Cuban. I cook Cuban food. My wife cooks Cuban food. I eat at Cuban restaurants all the time. So we visited the Havana> 1. place looks dirty and not nice. 2. Employees were not attentive. 3. Food was passable as something other than what we went there to eat. I had Boliche, black beans, yellow rice. Boliche could have been a bowling ball that was flattened out and cooked. The put cooked onions on top and gave you bland rice and not-tasting black beans. Food tasted good only because of the onions (I love onions). My wife refused to eat anything, One of my daughters had a Cubano, burned on one side, not toasted on the other. The other was supposed to get a grilled chicken breast sandwich and got a chicken salad sandwich,
When I went to see who the cook was, everyone working there is from Mexico or Central America. Good, hard working people, but definitely not Cubans. So I got a taste in my food that was Mexi-Guate-ban food.
Now, someone who does not knows that is not real Cuban food may be fine with it and if they like it, ok. But not for this Cuban.
