Havana Express Cuban Kitchen & Bakery — Restaurant in Paradise

1/14/2018 - Location is closed until further notice due to heavy damage from recent rain

12/21/2017 - Stopped in this morning to try their breakfast. I got the Cafe con Leche with toasted bread and my friend got the Croqueta sandwich. They still only take cash so make sure you bring it before hand because they don't have an ATM on site. The Cafe con Leche was delicious! The lady forgot to put sugar in it, but that was easily fixed. The toasted bread was huge! They use a longer thin bread and it was generously buttered and toasted. After dipping the bread, it retained its crunch while absorbing a lot of cafe con leche! It seemed like my friend accidentally received the lunch order as it came with onions, tomato and fries. No complaints here lol . He removed the veggies but he really enjoyed the sandwich and fries. My only complaint is that they completely forgot about my toast and had to wait close to 20 minutes until I got it. By then my coffee was already cold. However, the food is still really delicious and hits the spot!

Havana Express opened on Friday, December 8th. I finally had a chance to stop by today to try it out. I tried to order some Croquetas, but was told they didn't have any. Opted for the Empanada de Picadillo and Papa Rellena. The Empanada was a little under filled, but the Picadillo was delicious. The crust was perfect, but I think because it was under filled it was too much. The Papa Rellena was amazing. I wish there was more filling, but that would mean the whole thing would have to be bigger lol . I also ordered what I think is a Cake de Capuchino. The lady I asked didn't know what it was. Regardless, that too was delicious. The cake was moist and the syrup was great! Will definitely be back to try some...

I also had a guava con queso pastry.. it was delicious 😋 my boss: cuban sandwich, he loved it says he wishes it was a little bit more toasted. no pictures bc the pastry didn't make it to my car lol and I wasn't waiting to...
