Vegetarians are well catered for with options like the Tambor De Yuca, a flavorful mash of yuca filled with seasoned soy meat and accompanied by a refreshing Cuban salad. The Battered Eggplant also impresses with its crispy exterior and tender interior, accented by sweet plantains and rice, delivering a satisfying depth of texture and taste.
Sides are essential to any Cuban meal, and Sweet Havana honors that with a tempting array ranging from Sweet Plantains and Tostones to Cuban Salad and Fried Yuca. The Congri, a harmonious blend of rice and black beans, stands out as a perfect, savory complement to the mains, seasoned expertly with Cuban spices that bring every bite to life.
