Pequena Habana Restaurant Berlin in Berlin

So to be honest we were disappointed with the food. My friend ordered grilled fish, it was dry and tasteless. You had to add salt properly. I had beef. For me it wasn't seasoned properly either. The beans were somehow seasonless. The salad as a side dish was once again this typical “German salad”, as I call it, a few lettuce leaves with a few slices of other vegetables on top and with boring sauce like in almost every German restaurant. I'm not sure if Cuban cuisine is really supposed to be so "emotionless" and bland or if it was changed so much for the German guests that it ended up being nothing special. For this price and these experiences we will never come back. The service was friendly, yes.

Insanely delicious, one of the best restaurants to enjoy Cuban food.

Welcoming place, terrific food, fun ambience. Seafood is tasty and freshly kept (Berlin being landlocked no easy feat) maybe a touch too expensive for regular use. We paid almost €80 2 people no wine/alcohol, for two mains and a starter.

Ein tolles kubanischen Restaurant mit Flair und tollem Essen. Wir waren zu viert da und haben tolle Cocktails genossen. Das Essen war einfach toll. Wor hatten unterschiedliche Gerichte und waren alle sehr zufrieden. Der Service war super.

I could praise not only the food, but also the service, but the best I can do is recommend this place and enjoy it.

We discovered it by chance and ended up having dinner two nights in a row. Great staff and unbeatable food

Very nice and tasty, the drinks are good and it's worth a visit.

A small Cuban restaurant with a clear menu of starters, main courses and a few desserts There are a few tables in front of the door so you can sit outside when the weather is good. Everything we ordered was fresh and tasted very good. The prices are totally ok for the quality.

Very cozy and familiar. Spanish is also spoken and the food is to die for. Not a huge selection, but three really good main courses and the daily menu. Absolutely recommended!!!

We had a great dinner in this restaurant. The atmosphere is friendly and cozy. The food was delicious and fresh. The Cuban cuisine in particular was really good. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. The prices are also reasonable. The taste experiences will stay with us for a long time

It's a very quiet place on a side street the food is very tasty and the price is never too high we went there as a family and were really satisfied we had a little trouble finding it but we finally sorted it out thank you

Very good food, authentic Cuban dishes modern, tasty and beautifully cooked and presented. Be sure to try Ropa Vieja and Congries. But so does everything else. And pay attention to the daily specials. Definitely recommended. The service is patient and explains everything. Coffee: perfect!

A very nice place and it's a pleasure to sit down and eat

Very natural preparation - not over-seasoned. The plantains are amazing as a starter and then the fried banana slices as the main course. Incredible!

By far the best sea bream I've had in a long time. The beans and rice look a bit bland but are still nicely presented and the food comes together well. Gladly again :)

I really liked and recommend it. Portions are really satisfactory, food is good quality and very unique. I had the Tuna steak which was a bit salty for my taste, but overall very well prepared and served, would have it again just to see if the salt was an honest mistake that day 🙈 Service was good compared to a lot of places in Berlin. Overall definetly a good find and will visit again. Thank you 🙏

A place for authentic Cuban food and especially seafood soup! Recommended for those who want a special afternoon and excellent food.

Top. We really enjoyed the evening and the food.

Sehr lecker und liebevoll zubereitete Gerichte mit einer gewissen Note. Sehr freundlicher Service. Es hat alles gepasst. Wir kommen mit Sicherheit wieder.

It has been years since I have tasted such good food from my homeland, the service is spectacular, the food exquisite and the atmosphere very pleasant. Super recommended.

Very good food, I recommend it, excellent. Especially that fish soup saves lives!! The treatment the perfect environment

Incredible quality and flavor of the food.

Everything delicious. Great service. Highly recommended.

Wir waren jetzt in mehreren Jahren viermal im Pequena Habana. Und wir waren viermal begeistert! Im Oktober 2023 haben wir dort mit Freunden und Familie unsere Silberhochzeit gefeiert. Jetzt waren wir mit Kindern und Enkelkind noch einmal dort. Es war wieder ein Lottogewinn! Authentisch, superlecker, gastfreundlich. Dor passt alles! Es lohnt sich; und das Essen ist seinen Preis AUF JEDEN FALL wert!

Best restaurant in berlin. If you are in love with cuban food please do not miss this restaurant. Excellent ambient, super good service and the food is delicious. I would give a 6th star if possible.

Keine große Speisekarte, dafür aber ein gutes Tagesangebot. War alles echt Lecker und kann gerne empfohlen werden. Das Ambiente war auch nett.

Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere and delicious food with Latin American flavor. We will be happy to come back!

Simply delicious and a very nice and attentive service!!!!

The history of this location for businesses has not been very good. Over the last 15 years in my observation. It was a tapas bar that did not last very long. Then there was another Spanish restaurant that lasted for awhile but, disappeared. Soon after, Pequena Habana opened it doors. Within a short time the place was busy and has been ever since. Took a little while before I checked out the place with my girl and found that it is great! One of the key things I think why the restaurant is successful is that the proprietors I from Cuba. Looks to me like it’s a family business with a lot of heart put into the business and a lot of love put into the business and into the place. The decor is comfortable and very Cuban. This word great doesn’t really describe but, you have to be there and “taste there” to know what I mean. I’ve been there a few times and checked out several of their dishes. Now, I’m not a expert on Cuban food. My favourite actually is Mexican food. But, all of their dishes are full of flavour. And when you come back for the same dish it looks and taste the same. Their menu is not that expensive at all. Seems that they know the rules of restauranting. by not putting too many items or making a Bible out of their menu. It is served in a “nouveau cuisine” style but, there is enough to eat on the plate. So, the dishes I’ve tried were “Roper Vieja” which is Cuban style braised in shredded beef soup with rice black beans home-made fritters and salad. The other dish I’ve tried is the “Bistro de Palomilla (res)” which is ribeye steak marinade in garlic lime juice and onion soup with Maureen rice handmade fridges and salad. Both were exceptionally flavourful to my delight. They have these kind of funny green glass rectangle plates that they served the food on. I’ve never seen anything like it before; they are unique. Again, served in that “nouveau cuisine” style but, there is a enough to eat. The arrangement of the food on the plate is food for the eyes. And the prices are reasonable. Now, watch out for those drinks they serve and strong; really strong. If you really want to have that Cuban style flavour in Berlin, this is the place to come.

This is a nice place with a warm atmosphere and friendly service available in English. You can enjoy good cocktails and tasty food here👍🏻

If you want to taste real Cuban food, this is the place you're looking for. I strongly recommend La yuca con mojo.it is another level. The staff is really cordial and nice. Also, it is a place where the atmosphere is family oriented.

The food is good, but definitely overpriced. Most dishes are between 20 and 30€, specially the fish dishes (which is normal). There is also not a big selection on the menu, but they always have a menu that changes weekly. And they have Portuguese beer, which is definitely a plus! The cocktails were also great and they had one or two vegetarian options. The service was also good. Not sure I recommend because of the ration quality-price, but good to have a one time experience.

Authentic Cuban restaurant: ambience, service, food, drinks (cocktails!), everything is perfect. We had the impression that we were the exception as guests from outside. Guests here, especially Spanish speakers, seem to like coming back. We will definitely do the same when we are in Berlin again.

We had dinner here this evening, were enchanted by the tempting daily menu and what can I say? It was fantastic . The service was super nice. I can only recommend it. Thank you for this great evening.🙏🏽

A very good restaurant with very tasty food and very friendly staff, perfect service and a wonderfully beautiful ambience

Great American restaurant.very recommended

Really very tasty there and very pleasant, go there guys 👍😁

So everything is just right here: the service, the excellent food and the fact that you can sit outside at 11 p.m. on weekends in the summer.

Cozy and the service is courteous and flexible even if you don't have a reservation. The tuna was medium rare and very tasty. The vegetables were also tasty and the banana chips also visually enhanced the whole thing. I would say I'll come back. Highly recommended, something different than the inflationary Indian and Asian restaurants.

If you are looking for delicious and authentic Cuban cuisine, you have come to the right place. Thank you! 🙏🏼☺️

Very good service and tasty fish ❤️

The food was good, and the atmosphere was quite cozy. It is a bit pricey, though.

Please reserve. Unfortunately we couldn't stay longer.

The food was delicious. We ordered an appetizer of tostones and fried yucca which were delicious. The Ropa Vieja tasted very good. Very friendly staff

So delicious, we really loved the food, would especially recommend the steak and the octopus salad. Very unique cuisine to try in Berlin - amazing:)

Todo Perfecto ,comida deliciosa ,servicio ,ambiente excelentes y bebidas auténticas sobre todo el Mojito y el Daiquiri.

Great atmosphere and mega cuisine...

Super good service, exquisite food, for Cubans and those who are not Cuban but love Cuba, a great place to remember the good food of Cuba, and I am Cuban…

I recommend this place 100%. The food tastes like spectacular Cuban Creole food of very good quality. Fast service and friendly staff. We left there very satisfied. My congratulations.

Totally recommended, the food is very well prepared, the atmosphere is very pleasant, the price is not bad for the service they offer.

Very tasty food with a small but exciting menu. Definitely something different. Thumbs up! 👍

It's been a long time since I ate as delicious as I do today. Delicious food and super service. One of my best restaurants in Berlin <3

Excelent service! Thank you so much

Super tasty Cuban! Great service, exciting daily menu and very tasty food. We would love to come back and can only recommend it! Thank you to you.

Very tasty and great food. Not a bargain, but price/performance is right...

C'etait plutôt bon mais très copieux un peu bourratif même. Le service était bien. J'ai bien aimé le mojito.

!ALLES TOP! Ich bin sehr begeistert. Der Service ist mega und vom Essen brauchen wir erst gar nicht reden. ALLES WAR SUPER. Ich komme wieder

Νόστιμο φαγητό ,φιλικό το προσωπικό παρά πόλη φιλικό .σηγουρα θα ξαναέρθω ❤️

Ich habe in Berlin noch nie so köstlich und qualitativ hochwertige gegessen. So viel Liebe im Essen. Ein pures Geschmackserlebnis

Ich kann nur empfehlen , das ist alles perfekt 👌🏼

Sehr authentisches kubanisches Restaurant, mit gutem Service und einer kleinen aber gleichzeitig frischen Auswahl an Speisen. Haben uns dort sofort wohl gefühlt und das Essen und die Getränke sehr genossen. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Nuestra primera visita, rica comida, buena atención y agradable ambiente.

Amazing food! Worth the price. I’m Latina and it felt like home to me

Se come súper rico todo la sopa de pescado, el chicharrón, el pulpo, el dorado los tostones con Carme uffff todo una delicia 😍

Delicious food, nice staff and good service

Vorzügliches Restaurant. Kleine Auswahl. Qualitativ hochwertige Speisen. Super Service. War ein schöner Abend. Achso Veggie gibt's auch.

Ein wundervolles Restaurant mit super tollem Personal und super leckeren Essen.

Ottimo cibo, anche gluten free, servizio molto gentile.

Super leckeres Essen und freundlicher Service! Absolute Empfehlung

Avocado + gegrillter Tintenfisch: lecker 😋 ... Rindfleisch war langweilig, der Fisch 🐟 (Dorade + Schwertfisch) frisch + lecker ... gerne wieder

Der Kellner hat richtig gut gerochen.

Esta ha sido sin duda mi mejor experiencia culinaria del año!🥹😍. El ambiente es acogedor, así como sus dueños, Quienes han sido amorosos y apasionados con su trabajo y con los clientes🥹. La comida es fabulosa! Es el mejor pescado que he comido en los 6 años que tengo en Alemania🫶🏽. La comida se siente a hogar y es un abrazo al corazón!❤️. El cóctel de guayaba estuvo genial! Los postres deliciosos! Todo ha sido perfecto y es un sitio que pienso visitar, cada vez que venga a Berlín!😍🫶🏽🇻🇪 Das war zweifellos mein bestes kulinarisches Erlebnis des Jahres! 🥹😍Die Atmosphäre ist einladend, ebenso wie die Besitzer, die liebevoll und leidenschaftlich in ihrer Arbeit und im Umgang mit den Gästen sind❤️🥹. Das Essen ist fabelhaft! Der beste Fisch, den ich in den 6 Jahren, die ich in Deutschland bin, gegessen habe😍. Das Essen fühlt sich wie Zuhause an und ist eine Umarmung fürs Herz! Der Guaven-Cocktail war großartig! Die Desserts waren köstlich! Alles war perfekt, und es ist ein Restaurant, den ich jedes Mal besuchen werde, wenn ich nach Berlin komme!😍🫶🏽

Ein wunderschönes kleines gemütliches Restaurant, mitten in Schöneberg 👍. Sooo leckeres Essen und die schwarze Bohnensoße sehr 👍. Service perfekt, sehr freundlich, da sieht man, es macht dort Spaß zuarbeiten um die Gäste zu verwöhnen 🤗

Vielen Dank für den schönen Abend, super nette Bedienung, tolles sehr leckeres Essen, in einer sehr schönen Ambiente. Klein und fein, auch die Speisekarte, das macht aber wohl das gute Essen aus. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder, weil es uns super gefallen hat und empfehlen Euch weiter. Gruß Carsten

Sehr authentisches kubanisches Essen. Ich war schon 2x auf Kuba und bin daher großer Fan der Küche. Besonders das Ropa vieja hat mir gut geschmeckt. Die Drinks sind auch sehr gut und nicht zu vergessen die leckeren Vorspeisen.

Super lecker! Jede Speise war perfekt abgeschmeckt und für das Geld bekommt man auch eine ordentlich Portion. Wir waren noch nie kubanisch Essen und absolut begeistert. Service war auch freundlich und schnell :) immer wieder gerne!

Wir haben unsere Silberhochzeit mit 18 Erwachsenen und vier Kindern (2 1/2 bis 8 Jahre) dort gefeiert. Was soll ich sagen? Es war einfach perfekt! Das Essen hat ausnahmslos bei allen hohes Lob gefunden. Es war alles liebevoll und sehr appetitlich zubereitet und angerichtet. Und es ist schon ein kleines Wunder, so viele große und kleine Menschen zu begeistern. Eric und Iris haben das geschafft. Wir sind unendlich dankbar für einen tollen, leckeren und wundervollen Abend. Es war einfach schön. DANKE

Das Essen war sehr gut, wenn auch das Exotische ein wenig fehlte. Zu vielen Gerichten wird rote Bohnen Sauce serviert, wenn man die nicht mag, ist das natürlich nicht so doll. Der Preis ist fair, die Bedienung sehr nett. Ein wenig zu lange Wartezeiten, das Lokal ist sehr nett eingerichtet und relativ klein - Reservieren ist sinnvoll.

This small Cuban bar/restaurant is a pleasant surprise. The atmosphere is very pleasant. Cuban music is playing in the background, loud enough to hear, but not intrusive. We ordered the Bistec de Palomilla. Everything was superb including the salad, yuca, congrí, carmelized onions, and mariquitas; but what was surprising was the steak, which was almost an inch thick , done to perfection, and oh-so-tender. The perfect meal for the meat and potatoes man from Wisconsin and his Cubanita Bella.

Guter Service, sehr gutes Essen. Geschmacklich und optisch war das Essen top. Preis Leistung passt

Hola 👋🏽, en Berlín tengo 4 restaurantes favoritos y entre uno de ellos está el Pequeña Habana , me encanta comer allí , sus platos son deliciosos , un servicio excelente, un ambiente muy acogedor , yo os recomiendo que lo visiten , quedarán encantados 😀 Mis platos favoritos la ensalada de pulpo con aguacate , la sopa de marisco !!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Das "winzige Havana" bietet authentisch, typische, kubanische Speisen. Wir wurden schnell, freundlich und kompetent beraten und bedient. Speisen schmecken und sind reichlich. Genauso bei den Cocktails. An warmen Tagen sitzt man draußen gut.

Este sitio es el mejor para disfrutar de la comida cubana...la atención y el ambiente son excelentes.La comida es verdaderamente cubana y con ingredientes excelentes. Felicidades a todo el equipo

Sehr gutes, authentisches Restaurant, wir kommen gern wieder ☺️

suuuper lecker Freundliches Ambiente, J eder Zeit wieder 🙂🙂🙂😀😀

Essen war gut aber zu wenig gewürzt. Salz darf ja fehlen aber keine Schärfe ist ein NoGo bei einem karibischen Essen. In der Karibik it viel mehr Feuer drin.

Sehr nette Bedienung und das Essen ist super lecker 😋

Guter Service und leckeres Essen. Empfehlenswert

Espectacular!! La comida esta buenísima y lo mejor de todo es que se nota que esta echa con amor. El servicio de los camareros es super cercano. Uno se siente como en casa. 1000% Recomendable!!

We ordered the tostones in shrimp and beef which were both delicious the beef one has ample flavour. For mains we had the pork cutlet and beef sirloin which were both delicious and packed with flavour. The rice and beans that came with the sirloin steak was really good. They served us Salad before our mains and it was refreshing plate before our mains.

Seriously one of the best restaurants in Berlin! Amazing, authentic Cuban food and wonderful service! As a native New Yorker I am missing Latin food and this place did not disappoint. Thank you guys for a wonderful evening, we will be back!

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit allem hier. Das Essen war insgesamt wirklich gut - der Salat könnte noch etwas mehr "Pepp" gebrauchen und es ist leider alles Recht teuer aber ansonsten empfehlenswert.

Lovely staff, delicious food and great presentation, would love to come back and try other dishes of the menu. Muchas gracias!

Mehr Kuba 🇨🇺 geht nicht. Das Essen war hervorragend und der Service unbeschreiblich gut. Besonders möchte ich Frau Idalmis erwähnen, die uns mit all ihrer Lebensfreude und Freundlichkeit bedient hat. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und werden sicherlich wieder kommen. Danke für diesen wunderschönen Abend.

Das Essen war richtig lecker und das Personal ist wahnsinnig freundlich. Vielen Dank an Idalmis und das Team vom Pequeña Habana für den tollen kubanischen Abend! Wir kommen wieder!

Excelente experiencia, llegamos de viaje y llamamos a ultima hora y su personal muy amablemente accedio a cocinar nuestra comida y atendernos. Muy complacidos

Idalmys ofreció un servicio de excelencia!!!! Y la comida ni se diga. Mil gracias por esperarnos y al chef hacernos la comidita que tanto anhelábamos. Este negocio familiar es recomendado 100%. - Una familia puertorriqueña muy satisfecha.❤️

De estar 10 dias en Europa ya necesitabamos comer comida latina. Que excelente restaurante y un servicio de Idalmis INCREIBLE.

Delicious food, we loved everything. Avocado salad with octopus 🐙, dorada fish, fried cassava. You need to wait quite long for the food, but it worth it. Servise is friendly and nice. We enjoyed our slow dinner here.
