I took my friend from TX and she had to go again before she went home. The food is wonderful & the staff always smiling. I highly recommend you visit!

It's a whole in the wall dive that's dated. Everything - the furnishings, the menu, the TVs - but it's authentic, reasonably priced, and delicious. Large servings. The service was a bit slow, but it was packed on a weds evening around 7:15. Margs were too sweet. I'd go again.

Stated hours online say closes at 10pm. Husband showed up at 9:10pm this evening, all tables were full of people eating. But they would not serve him. He was told the "kitchen is closed" and she held the door open to escort him out. We have a place very near Habanero's and we always try to shop local and support our neighbors. We won't be back. If they don't want to have customers past 9pm change the stated hours.

Excellent food and fast service. Wasn't a real fancy place but food was second to none. Large servings at a good price. Salsa was the best I've ever had. Cheese dip was good as well.

My wife and I needed a break from all of the delicious Seafood in the area so we gave this place a shot. The salsa was excellent and the queso is even better. Just a little bit of heat made it just right. My wife had the enchiladas while I had the "G" combo. Both were great and the Margarita's were tasty. We went on a Saturday night in June during prime vacation season and another nice thing about this place, is that it's off the beaten path and there was no wait while all of the restaurants looked to have lines outside the front door. If you decide to try Habanero's out, I dont think you'll be disappointed.

Add up your bills before you pay! Our server gave my husband and I, and then our guests seperate bills which were handwritten. Our guests wanted to pay for this outting, but when our friends added up the totals, their bill was $8 over what it should have been and our bill was also significantly over. No taxes were noted on either bill. Tax was added later when our guests complained, and the two bills straightened out.

We went at 5pm abd we were the only people in the retaurant Food was good. Definitely a place for locals.
This is where the locals eat. If you need the Kenny Chesney/Jimmy Buffet plastic Americanized Mexican restaurant experience with "Meh" food, go to the other joints. Habanero's has an authentic menu with great food/service. Don't be scared by the off the path location and humble digs. This place is legit.

Not a memorable meal. Slow service and the folks lacked a good Mexican flavor. The staff was not very welcoming as they stood near the cash register talking. We felt as if being there was an inconvenience. We won't be back.

The food is not bad here, but they messed up our order. While trying to explain what we we're missing the manager was completely rude and acted like it was our fault. When I came back in to pick up our missing food, it still wasn't ready and still wasn't right. On top of that I was treated coldly from the manager and she Still made me pay for the plate I already bought!?!?! Long story short it was very unprofessional and very rude first experience here. My family will not be coming back.

Tasty food with large portions. Ordered the half order of chicken nachos. If that was the half order it was huge I could not finish it. Whole order would be for more than one person or for someone who hasn't eaten all day. The other favorite is the fajita salad very flavorful and filled with the meat of your choice. Enjoy tasty food for a good price.
