OVERVIEW

  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB. Certain statements contained herein that
are not related to historical results, including, without limitation, statements
regarding the Company's business strategy and objectives, future financial
position and estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), and involve risks and uncertainties. Although the Company
believes that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are
based are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove
to be accurate and actual results could differ materially from those discussed
in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to
such differences include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties
associated with the ability to obtain adequate working capital on terms
favorable to the Company, compliance with regulatory requirements, the Company's
ability to sell more memberships, a decline in public consumption of cigars and
other tobacco products, significant increases in excise taxes which could
substantially increase the price of cigars and general economic factors. All
forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB are
qualified in their entirety by this statement.

  Grand Havana Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company" or "Registrant") is engaged
in the business of the ownership and operation of private membership restaurants
and cigar clubs known as "Grand Havana Rooms," and in the ownership and
operation of retail cigar stores known as "Grand Havana House of Cigars." Unless
the context otherwise indicates, the "Company" means Grand Havana Enterprises,
Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

  The Company currently owns and operates two Grand Havana Rooms, one in
Beverly Hills, California, which opened in June 1995 and one in New York, New
York, which opened in May 1997. The Company formerly operated a third Grand
Havana Room and House of Cigars in Washington, D.C. That location was closed in
February 1999 and substantially all of the assets were sold. In addition, the
Company currently owns and operates two Grand Havana House of Cigars locations,
one in Beverly Hills, California, which opened in December 1997 and one in Las
Vegas, Nevada, which opened in November 1997. The Company's primary business
focus is on operating its existing cigar clubs and retail stores.

  For the quarter ended June 25, 2000, the Company had a net loss of
($153,004) compared to a net loss of ($399,257) for the fiscal quarter ended
June 27, 1999. This improvement is attributable primarily to three factors: (1)
increases in membership fees due, in part, to the adoption of the new "social"
membership plan, (2) increases in revenues as a result of increased member
activity, and (3) reductions in costs from the closure of the Washington, D.C.,
Grand Havana Room and House of Cigars. A social member is permitted to use the
club's dining facilities but does not have a locker or humidor. Although the
social members pay less in initial and monthly membership fees, the Company
receives additional revenue from the increased use of its facilities.

  The two House of Cigars locations are still experiencing operating losses.
The Las Vegas House of Cigars location had an operating loss of $9,949 for
the quarter ending June 25, 2000 and the Beverly Hills House of Cigars had
an operating loss of $5,021 for the same period.

  The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on
April 13, 1993, under the name "United Restaurants, Inc."

Shuster for cause in which event the Company will not be obligated to pay any
severance or additional benefits. Mr. Shuster may terminate the agreement only
for cause after 30 days written notice. The agreement requires Mr. Shuster to
keep confidential certain trade secrets and records of the Company and to
refrain from soliciting any of the Company's employees for a period of one year
from the date of his termination.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 25, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 1999

of $1,288,240 for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 1999, an increase of

increase in revenues from membership fees and food and beverage sales.

the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 1999 to $530,628 in the fiscal quarter ended

membership plan.

Note, $300,000, remained outstanding. As of June 25, 2000, the Company is
indebted to Harry Shuster in the amount of $1,044,869 for amounts due under the
Shuster Note and for advances made from time to time by Harry Shuster to the
Company.

  On September 30, 1998, United Leisure Corporation, a publicly-held company
located in Irvine, California ("United Leisure") agreed to make a new
installment loan to the Company in the amount of up to $1,250,000 in replacement
of the previous loan between United Leisure and the Company. The Company
executed a Secured Promissory Note dated September 30, 1998 (the "Promissory
Note"). The Promissory Note provides that United Leisure may from time to time,
but shall not be obligated to, make future advances up to a total amount of
$1,250,000. The Promissory Note is secured by a first lien security interest in
certain collateral. The Promissory Note's due date has been extended to July
31, 2000. At June 25, 2000 the Company owed an aggregate of $682,155 to
United Leisure under the Promissory Note. Stanley Shuster, the current Chairman
of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer,
Executive Vice President, director and principal stockholder of the Company, is
the brother of Brian Shuster, the President of United Leisure.

  In addition, as of June 25, 2000, an aggregate of $507,000 in principal
amount remained outstanding under a financing agreement with United Film
Distributors, Inc., an affiliate of the Company, the full amount of which,
together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, is due and payable by the
Company upon demand, which demand could not be made prior to November 1,
1998. Stanley Shuster, the current Chairman of the Board, President,
Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President,
director and principal stockholder of the Company, is the brother of Brian
Shuster, the President of United Film Distributors, Inc.

  The Company believes that it will meet its working capital needs, in the
current fiscal year, from the operations of its Grand Havana Rooms and Grand
Havana House of Cigars locations. Due to the fact that the trading price of the
Company's Common Stock has remained low in the last twelve months and because it

                                       9

is currently trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Company does not anticipate
that it will be able to sell its securities in private placements on terms that
are acceptable to the Company for the foreseeable future.  If the Company is
unable to raise additional funds through the private placement of its securities
it may seek financing from affiliated or unaffiliated third parties. There can
be no assurance, however, that such financing would be available to the Company
when and if it is needed, or that if available, that it will be available on
terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain financing to
meet its working capital needs and to repay indebtedness as it becomes due, the
Company may have to consider such options as selling or pledging portions of its
assets in order to meet such obligations.
