Looking for good Cuban food in El Monte? This is it! My coworkers and I love coming here for their lunch specials. Usually its a hit or miss but you really do get the best bang for your buck for the amount of food you get. Theres usually 3 items for the lunch special everyday that is priced around $9 and it comes with garlic bread, plantains and black beans. I especially love the chicken and potato dish on Wednesdays. The restaurant itself is family owned and it actually looks pretty nice inside with comfortable seating. From the outside the restaurant looks like a hole in the wall place but dont be deceived! Although it can get packed during the lunch rush, I found the service to be pretty quick. The wait staff are usually very attentive to the customers. You can even find the El Monte police officers and other city workers dropping by during lunch time.

I started coming to this restaurant 8 years ago and I stop by this restaurant whenever I’m in El Monte. Food and service were ok but when I came last weekend, the service was very bad. They are not that busy, not even half full but the waitress was uncaring, inattentive and looked like I’m bothering her. I ordered ropa vieja from the lunch special menu and the food came within 15 min. it took me 20 minutes to pay, get a to-go box and leave. I had a first at this restaurant I was charged for the to-go container. Never ever I was charged anywhere else for a to-go box except this place. Shame on you Havana Club Restaurant.

The food was alright... Ive been to small Cuban cafes and they have been way better than this. The waitress was really nice, but she was the only one working on this business night. Than who I believe to be the owner stepped in to help but oh no ! She messed up our check twice, and to compensate took off our drinks cuz I guess the waitress wrote it down wrong ? whatever the case I definitely wont be back here. It took us another 10 minutes just to get our check picked up, than another 5 just for our change. On top of all this she cheated me 5 dollars from my change ! Horrible

“Fabulous Flavors” My husband and I loved every bite of the fabulously flavored dinners that we enjoyed at this friendly restaurant. It was by far the most authentic Mexican cuisine that we have ever experienced outside of Mexico. I ordered birria La Barca, a delectably prepared goat in mole. It was so good that I was so busy eating that I rarely...

UN RESTAURANT CON LA TIPICA COMIDA CUBANA DONDE SE PUEDE IR A SABOREAR DELICIOSA COMIDA,CON UN PERSONAL MUY ATENTO Y AMBIENTE SUMAMENTE FAMILIAR SE LOS RECOMIENDO.

Went there three weeks ago and had the ox tail, I had already had dinner earlier that day but family was visiting the area so we went. I was not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. The buttered bread tasted great and the meat from the oxtail was so tender and just melted in my mouth. We are going back again tonight, just 13 of us.

Good food but service sucks. Made a party reservation for 18 people. And they only had one server doing everything. Had to go to the kitchen myself to make them bring the drinks so we could do the toast. Dinner service was late as well. The Stars awarded are only for the taste of the food. Nothing more

I just had my baby shower cater by them and I must tell you that EVERYONE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE FOOD!! The owner is very friendly and professional and really took care of my order. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. Thanks Havana Club for making my Baby Shower Special !!!

Fine food, tasty surprising combinations, beautiful presentation in a very small family-run restaurant in an offbeat location. Mexican food does not get better—anywhere (I live in New Mexico and travel to Mexico). Not cheap, but a fair price for the quality. Wine and beer only.

“Friendly and good foods” It was recommended by my Cuban friend. It was very reasonable and good portion of foods. Waitress Ali explains about foods we ordered and history of restaurant. She is very friendly and good service!! Foods was very good.

My friend and I have been there twice in a three week period and we loved it! We want to try the buffet next time...Im sure Ill be heading there on Sunday. Also, the waitress was nice and our food was delicious and hot...love the bread!

Great Cuban food and their service is good too. We drive over 50 miles to just go there and eat...that is how good it is. We recommend that you bring the whole family. Dont forget that on Sundays they have a buffet to die for. Love it!

Not the greatest location but nice clean place. The food was a bit greasy for me but the taste was there. The best thing was the fryed banana omg was that good. But again due to the greasyness of the food I could not give it more stars

Walter Davis

Good and clean location the food was very exquisite and conveniently located by the hotel we stayed wish the cash register understood us a bit better when we spoke to her but everything else was ok at a decent price.

The food is very authentic, I grew up eating Cuban food, the food here is as good as home made. The Cuban fried rice, the Palomilla stake, Masitas de puerco are all excellent Service is also very friendly

Good food in a comfortable setting. Black Angus is a nice place to relax and enjoy a great meal with great company, a date, family, business or solo, whatever way you like to do it.

This place reminds me of the meals I had as a kid in Panama! The ropa vieja is just like my Grandmothers, but I usually order the house steak. The Best.

Jean Garcia

Excellent food and great service! I highly recommend Brigantine, if youre in search of fresh seafood or a good steak in La Mesa.
