While driving on Hope Street in the Springdale section of Stamford I noticed that a new Cuban restaurant had opened (or was opening) where Quatro Pazzi used to be.
Anyone checked it out yet?

It's Habana, migrated from SoNo.

With all due respect - restaurants don't just "migrate" They fail in a location and reopen elsewhere

Totally untrue.
For example - If the landlord raises your rent 3x and you re-locate, then it has nothing to do with the restaurant, but the location.

The owner is trying to streamline her restaurants and thus combining them. Don't know if it will work but I wish her luck. She is one hard-working lady.

was habana good when it was in Norwalk? Cuban would be a nice addition in Stamford, where there's currently nothing in the way of that cuisine currently.

If this is the restaurant from Sono it certainly isn't traditional Cuban no matter what they call themselves unless they have made a drastic change in their menu. The only semblance of Cuban food were their sides of black beans and yuca con mojo.
I don't even recall Boliche, Vaca Frita, Ropa Vieja or Bistec Empanizado on the menu which are all traditional Cuban dishes.
The food quality was OK but does not relate to traditional Cuban food which I believe most people would like to experience if they choose to go to a Cuban restaurant.. The closest Cuban restaurants serving traditional Cuban food that I know of is the Latin American Cafe in White Plains and Victors on W52 in Manhattan, La Bandera in Union City and my once per year favorites Las Culebrinas and Versailles in Miami.
