New Mexican Restaurants in Napa, CA

“After the Andrea Bocelli concert, our group of 16 was looking for a place open late — and we stumbled upon Habaneros, this incredible taqueria tucked away in the valley. We arrived around midnight and, despite the darker setting and humble vibe, we decided to stay. Best decision of the night.

We ordered quesadillas, molitos, tacos, bolitos — everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I had a michelada that instantly brought back memories of my trip to Mexico City ten years ago.

To be honest, I’m not usually a fan of Mexican food in Canada, as I’ve lost that emotional connection over the years — but Habaneros reignited my love for real, authentic Mexican cuisine.

What made the night even more special was chatting with the owner, a kind and passionate man from Mexico City, who made us feel right at home. The service was simple and warm, the kind that makes you feel like you’re at a friend’s house.

If you’re anywhere near Napa Valley, do yourself a favor and drop by Habaneros after 6 PM. Bring your friends, your family, and enjoy an honest, delicious Mexican meal that’s full of heart. Highly recommended.“
