Couldn’t recommend this place more. Staff were honestly amazing. Modified the menu for celiac and honestly was so so tasty. Hats off to the chefs! Special thanks to Kat, Paige and Darren. They were so welcoming and nice, one of best experiences we’ve had to date in Vancouver. Thank you all 🎉
We LOVED the food! Gluten free menu,, handmade blue corn tortillas, and the flavor was fantastic! When we come back to visit Vancouver this is one of the restaurants we will return to. Thank you for the fabulous and high quality food!
Service was amazing. Food was mediocre; brisket was good but lacked flavour; ribs were tough and dry; mac and cheese was spicy, but needed someone else; chicken was good and it was gluten free.
This place was great! Super friendly staff and very willing to help with the menu.
Celiac friendly.
We really enjoyed the flavors and the way you can build your own tacos. The nacho chips and guacamole is well worth it, tons of guacamole!
We had our cold after the soccer game we went to and it was still amazing, chips crunchy.

Havana on Commercial Drive is an absolute gem in Vancouver! 🌟🇨🇺 From the moment we walked in, the energy was buzzing ⚡ — warm, vibrant, and so welcoming. The décor is colorful 🎨, the music is lively 🎶, and the whole vibe just feels like a mini vacation! ☀️🌴 Perfect for date night ❤️, casual hangouts 🍻, or even solo chill time.
Food:
We went all in — and wow. 🤤 We had the Cubano sandwich 🥪, pulled pork tacos 🌮, and plantain chips with guac 🍌🥑 to start. Every bite = flavor explosion. 💥 The Cubano was perfectly pressed and cheesy 🧀, the tacos were juicy and fresh, and those plantains… dreamy. Don’t skip dessert either — the churros were warm, crispy, and dipped in chocolate heaven 🍫🔥.
Drinks:
Cocktails were on point — we tried the Mojito 🍃🍸 and the Havana Old Fashioned 🥃. So refreshing and bold. Bartenders here know their craft. 👨🍳👏
Service:
Service was amazing! 🙌 Everyone we met was friendly 😄, super helpful, and genuinely passionate about the place. Shoutout to our server for solid recos and great vibes the whole time ✨💬
Atmosphere:
Cozy inside 🛋️, but the patio is a total vibe 🌇🔥. It’s heated, covered, and perfect for people-watching on The Drive. Great music, cool art on the walls 🖼️, and the whole place has that laid-back but buzzing feel.
Pro tips:
• 📅 Book ahead on weekends — it gets packed!
• 🍳 Check out brunch — it’s a hidden gem.
• 🥗 Plenty of veggie + gluten-free options!
• 🎭 Bonus: there’s a theatre in the back for local performances. So cool!
Final thoughts:
This spot gets it. ✅ Food slaps, drinks hit, staff rules, and the vibe is immaculate. 💯
Havana is easily one of my fav spots on The Drive.

Can’t wait to go back!
This restaurant is AMAZING !! We ordered the nachos and several tacos. Everything was so flavorful and cooked to perfection. My husband and I both have allergies, gluten & egg, and the Manager, Chris, came out to talk with us in regard to our allergies to make sure the dishes we ordered wouldn't be of concern. Thanks so much! 10/10!
Great spot and cute casual vibe ! Perfect for someone with celiac disease! They are good with gluten free and cross contamination. Best late night bites for after clubbing or drinks ❤️
Very good food with lots of variety to cater to whatever you may be feeling like, be it tacos, enchiladas, soups. Vegetarian, gluten free, or what have you.
Service was friendly and our food arrived pretty quick too.
For a fast food restaurant, it is excellent!!! Everything is so fresh and deliciously made!
My new go to place on Granville Street.
You get to choose your own burrito or salad.
They don’t have gluten free tortilla however you can get a bowl.
I’ve only ordered on Uber eats 1000000/10 every time. Everything is so delicious, flavourful made with love. I’m a celiac it’s very rare I get many options when ordering food. So many tasty gluten free delicious food options here. Everything I’ve tried on the menu so far has been the best tasting food ever. I’ll always order here & one day when I am not working from home I’d love to eat here in person.
Decent food, gluten free options. Place is small, music is loud. Great for take out, seating is limited. It's not a comfortable environment to eat a meal.
Ordered a gluten free burrito which they do in a bowl - does not say it needs to be a bowl to be gluten free though. Item had gluten because it came in a flour tortilla. I called the restaurant to confirm if it was gluten free, and they were quite unhelpful.
Celiac friendly
