In comparison to other gay friendly establishments in the area the only real upside to this place was the fact that there was no cover. I would definitely check out one of the other bars in the area. Overall, I was not wowed by this place and would probably not come back. They also had a smoke machine going which I personally do not like.

From seeing two big girls scissoring and exposing their giant boobies (which was like a train wreck… we just could not stop watching) to a dude getting down and dirty on the floor in his two pairs of undies to a girl completely degrading herself for a complimentary $ 50 bar tab… WHOA, it was an interesting evening! Seating is extremely limited here so don’t plan on sitting unless you get there early.

The crowd was pretty damn entertaining, and we have LOTS of crazy stories despite the fact that we were only there for about an hour. We all ordered gin and tonics and they were not only skimpy on the alcohol, but tasted kind of strange… couldn’t quite put my finger on it. Drinks are priced similarly to those in the uptown area. Seeing as there was no cover I assume that the food was not complimentary. The food smelled delicious but none of us were hungry. Rather than going in the main front entrance, we were guided to go in through the patio area and pass by the buffet which was set up outside. No cover charge last night, and I am not sure if there is normally one. There were a couple of private lots to park in which ranged from $ 7 – 10. Parking was pretty easy as there was a lot on the street. We decided on Havana seeing as they have a pretty eclectic style of music. Ladies night needed some serious energy so we decided to check out the Oaklawn area. Parking is going to be on the street and unless this place is dead outside of Halloween I picture that to be a challenge. and I paid for that.): I wouldn’t be opposed of going back outside of Halloween to see what it’s like but generally upset when covers are involved. A friend needed a water, we ordered a water and they started to hand us an opened, half gone bottle of water… oops? For the crowd size I thought the wait at the bar was reasonable. There were people, despite the crowd, trying to twirl their partners and then behind you would be people shoving you out of the way for pictures. I enjoyed the selection but dancing was impossible. I heard some Michael Jackson, salt n pepper, and some Latin music. I don’t prefer to rub up against sweaty people when I am sober… or drunk. The place smelled of sweat and you couldn’t walk anywhere without rubbing up against 10 people. We paid a five dollar cover to get into Havana and it was SO CROWDED! In fact, crowded is an understatement. There are gobs and gobs of people outdoors and indoors. This is my first time out in Oak Lawn for Halloween. My club going days are pretty much long gone. I should preface this review with two things: 1. And some people in the crowd act kind of petty. This place reminds me of the college dance parties I never went to. I wish this place was a little bit bigger but it’s great nonetheless. But definitely, come here if you’re looking for a fun time and need to shake off some stress from your day. It was fun! This is a place where you are incredibly in the minority if you aren’t LGBT so get ready, if you are straight and going there, get ready for the millions of questions about WHY are you there? Lol! It made me feel like I was the only straight woman there. I think she was grateful and she danced with me and my friend for a while. Some people were just kind of looking at it so I grabbed it and gave it back to her. Once, a girl dropped her phone in the middle of the dance floor. Most of the people here love to dance with other people than just the friend group they came with. Every time I have gone here the music has been on point. I don’t usually get a drink but if you’re trying for the bar, its difficult to get to the counter on a busy night here, because when it’s busy… It’s packed, and the layout is not the best to accommodate all of those people. Gawd so many great dancers frequent here.
