Havana Grill

If you’re looking for a dining experience that combines stunning views and exquisite cuisine, look no further than Havana Grill. Situated at the Suncoast Casino, this restaurant offers magnificent 180-degree views from the Bluff to uMhlanga Rocks, making it a top contender among the best restaurants in Durban.We Durbanites go there regularly, savouring each meal and enjoying the impeccable service and atmosphere that makes Havana Grill a staple in Durban’s vibrant culinary scene. The creative and multicultural heartbeat of the city, the Durban Vibe, is evident in every dish served.

At Havana Grill, our favourite main dish is the “Fillet On The Bone.” This dish perfectly encapsulates why we adore this restaurant. Imagine a 500g wet aged fillet on the bone, served with a gremolata roasted marrow bone topped with a herbed aioli and a mixed pepper salsa, all accompanied by a creamy mashed potato. The harmony of flavours and textures is simply divine, with each component cooked to perfection. The succulent fillet is rich and tender, while the gremolata and herbed aioli add a burst of freshness that elevates the entire meal.

Their menu is exceptional. For starters, we highly recommend the Falkland calamari, available either grilled with garlic and lemon or fried with peri-peri aioli. The calamari is tender and flavourful, making it a delightful way to begin your meal. If you’re in the mood for seafood, the Seafood Journey is an absolute must-try. This generous platter features crayfish, calamari, prawns, langoustines, line fish, and mussels, each item cooked to highlight its natural flavours. For vegetarians, the Fettuccine Havana is a standout choice, with roasted peppers, chilli, sofrito, cream, and oregano creating a delicious and satisfying dish. And for dessert, the Havana Brownie is a decadent treat. A rich, gooey pecan nut brownie topped with wild berries, strawberries, and vanilla ice cream, it’s the perfect end to a perfect meal.

Havana Grill’s menu is a testament to its dedication to quality and creativity, making it a crucial part of the Durban Vibe. The emphasis on fresh, high-quality ingredients and innovative preparation methods is a reflection of Durban’s rich cultural fusion and culinary diversity. Whether you’re enjoying a premium cut of beef or a fresh seafood dish, the experience is one of culinary artistry that fits seamlessly into the vibrant tapestry of Durban’s dining scene.
