About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
  • Charming
Havana has been committed to serving local and organic meats, produce and seafood since it opened 25 years ago. All of our meats are “naturally raised” meaning no steroids, antibiotics or hormones and “humanely raised” meaning room to roam, proper shelter and gentle handling. We make every effort to buy only sustainably harvested seafood, primarily from the Gulf of Maine. We have consistently searched out New England farmers and fisherfolk to purchase product that is not only great tasting but great for the environment and local economy as well.

    Just opening for its 27th year in mid-April, 2025, Havana was already ahead of the seasonal restaurant scene in Bar Harbor. A revamped menu has wonderful choices - and we sampled each course. Breads & Spreads: Accompanying baguette and blueberry cornbread were served with tasty black bean hummus, a flavorful olio de olive and a maple butter that all melded well for a variety of unique tastes. Apps: The Pulpa (Octopus) App and MDI Blondes (Oysters) were clean, fresh and prepared to perfection. Mains: The Pollo (Chicken dish) with a tomato-based sauce was very good. The Seafood Paella was off-the-charts spectacular. Scallops, Mussells, Shrimp and Lobster went together swimmingly. Drinks: An n/a Athletic IPA and n/a Mojito are appreciated, as was the regular Mojito for my partner. The n/a version of the Mojito was the best I'd ever had. It's not a standard simple (sugary) syrup and invites the N/A crowd to an inclusive course of drinks. Desserts: A Horchata Tres Leches cake with a crumb topping and blueberries and an Affogato to wake up the mind and savor the experience. Service: Owner Michael and his entire Staff are inviting/welcoming and always attentive. Our server, Jessica, was very knowledgeable of the menu, aware of the pairings and made the best suggestions. It's going to be a very successful summer for Havana and we cannot wait to return soon.

    We started off with unique cocktails/mocktails while we looked over the menu.The waitress answered all our questions and helped us make some decisions. The food was delicious! We had the farm salad, pork belly appetizer, lamb chops, and beef tenderloin. We finished up with the very tasty cherry chocolate cake. I was very impressed with the server at another table explaining vegan options to diners.

    We were visiting Bar Harbor on a girls trip. I was super excited after reading about the restaurant, but food was disappointing. Two out of three of us didn’t particularly like our dinner. One person had to send their drink back because it did not taste good at all. Server was nice.

    Wow. What an INCREDIBLE experience. I now understand why this place is so highly rated and why reservations are hard to get during busy season. Jessica, our server, was also amazing. Shout out to you, Jessica. Host Billy was also very kind and welcoming upon arrival. 11/10 experience from beginning to end. Would recommend if you are looking for a dining experience that you’ll never forget.
