⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Outstanding — One of the Best in the Nation! Havana Carolina is easily one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to — not just in North Carolina, but anywhere in the country. The moment we walked in, the atmosphere hit us with pure energy: lively music, warm smiles, and an authentic Cuban vibe that made the whole night unforgettable. We ordered the Taste of Cuba sampler, and it was hands-down one of the best dining deals we’ve ever had. Every bite felt like home — the flavors reminded me of my family’s cooking growing up. From the tender pork and perfectly seasoned beef to the plantains and yuca, it was a flavor experience that hit every note. The drinks and Cuban coffee were phenomenal — honestly some of the best we’ve ever had eating out. The service was just as exceptional. The entire team worked together seamlessly, attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely seemed to enjoy creating a great experience for their guests. To top it all off, the live singer came by our table and jammed with us — that moment alone turned an already amazing dinner into something truly special. If you’re anywhere near Concord, Havana Carolina is an absolute must. Great food, great people, great energy — this place sets the bar high for what a dining experience should be.

Absolutely delicious food. I recommend the Tesoros Cubanos as a sample appetizer. Both the Ropa Vieja and Vaca Frita were phenomenal. I had the flan for dessert and was pleasantly surprised, it was thick and almost had a cheesecake texture. Heavily recommend this restaurant for people looking for authentic Cuban food, and for those new to Cuban food. Additionally, Aryoly was an excellent waitress. She did a wonderful job taking care of us. She was ready to answer any questions we had and our glasses were never empty.

An impromptu night for dinner turned into an amazing experience. I’d never had Cuban before, and always wanted to try. I had no idea what to order, but the waiter explained it and answered all of my questions with ease and assurance. The food was amazing! Atmosphere exciting. And the service was beyond phenomenal. I can’t wait to come back and have it again!

Love coming here for some delicious Cuban food! You really can’t go wrong with anything. If you need help choosing something, the waitresses are so helpful with helping you decide what to order. My favorite meal is Ropa Vieja with the beans and rice mixed. It’s full of flavor.

I recently visited Havana Carolina in Concord and had a wonderful experience. The moment you walk in, the tropical décor, warm lighting, and subtle Cuban music make you feel like you’ve stepped into a little corner of Havana. The best of all was//: * The **cocktails**, especially the mojitos, were refreshing and well balanced. * **Service** was friendly and attentive; our server gave helpful suggestions and checked in without being overbearing. * There’s a **cozy, festive vibe**, particularly on Friday/Saturday nights with live music. It makes for a fun dinner atmosphere. **A few minor notes:** * The restaurant can get busy on weekends, so reservations or arriving early is wise. * It’s a bit tucked back in a building without prominent street signage, so the entrance was slightly tricky to spot. * Parking is somewhat limited—plan for that ahead of time. All in all, Havana Carolina is a gem for Cuban cuisine in the area. I’ll definitely be returning to try more of their menu and enjoy the ambiance.

Dont forget desert and the COFFEE! Live music on Saturdays
