We were a little hesitant to try this place due to the low rating. We were a party of eight with kids and adults and everybody loved the place. I can't understand all the negative reviews. The food is great, the service is great and it was totally reasonably priced. we had an awesome experience. Recommend the enchiladas and steak tacos.

The food was amazing in the place. I really liked the chicken tinga tacos. Only thing is that the corn tortillas fall apart which is expected. The service was great the waiter was very attentive. Sat outside in patio. The ambiance was great, I liked the wall painting and fresh plants bordering the patio.

Cafe Habana is without a doubt one of the nicest decorated restaurant I have been to and I am glad I finally was able to visit this hidden gem while in Malibu for business. Everything from the Chips and Salsa to the Cubano Sandwich and the Roasted Plantains were the bomb! 5 stars for reasonably priced and tasty food, plus friendly service!!

Absolutely delicious meals with a great atmosphere. The staff were attentive. The menu had a lot to choose fromfrom. My absolute favorite item was Mexican style corn. This place is good for a date, and also great for large groups and events. The parking might be a bit challenging.

Another 5 Star restaurant revelation!! Wow! Not sure why I've never been here!? Cuban/Mexican inspired food-Located in the very popular Malibu Country Mart which faces PCH, on Creekside in the Lumber District (south/west section) trendy cool vibe-rustic spot! The indoor dining also has a full bar, we sat on the patio in a comfy couch like booth, very "woodsy" and nicely shaded... also dog friendly! Our server Cole was very sweet and super helpful with the menu, really knew it well! Sharing his thoughts on many different items, which my husband and I love!! Always helps us decide what to order! We LOVED the calamari appetizer! Thank you Cole for helping us decide! Cooked just right! Light & crispy Yum! My fried chicken sandwich was delicious! It had a spicy slaw on it, pickles and a spicy honey sauce. Definitely reminded me of a cubano-awesome flavors! My husbands asada steak was fantastic! Topped with a little Chimichurri sauce (the best!!) and he asked for more...Served with black beans, rice and a little salsa. Cooked perfectly (medium rare). An excellent meal from start to finish! Highly recommend! Locals! Outta-t owners! You must try it!
