I came to Habaneros for lunch a few months back and had a nice steak salad. We arrived a little early so it was pretty empty but it soon filled up The place had a cute Mexican street theme with a decorative balcony over the seating area. They are going thru construction right now so that may change. They have a special lunch menu which is nice. The only thing I would have changed was the lettuce was a little wilty looking under my steak. Otherwise there was a lot of meat and avocado. I'm a fan!

Best table side guacamole I've had in a long time! Yummy food and the service was very friendly. The decor inside also immersed us into Mexican culture, which of course made the meal even better. Very pricey in my opinion, as each entree was no less than $19, but overall not bad for an occasional night out.

Grabbed a late lunch while on the road. Expected little because of the storefront exterior. However, apart from the overly loud Mexican music, the atmosphere was charming and very clean. I ordered the Enchiladas Monterrey, and it was excellent. The portion was large, although if you're going to charge $18, it probably needs to be big. For people on the go, however, such sizes are unnecessary. They participate in the "make 'em fat" mentality held by too many U.S. restaurants. I'll be back because it's only ten minutes from where I live, but I'll look for cheaper and smaller lunches.

We enjoyed lunch here while out running errands. We were given two different kinds of delicious salsa and chips after getting seated, as well as multiple menus. The menus had many options, it was tough to decide! They also had a couple of specials for their anniversary and some for a weekday lunch. I ended up getting the lunch special, a chicken tostada and quesadilla, and my husband had the pork burrito. The food was ready in a blink! The food was pretty good, my tostada was a little soggy and I felt like the cheese and chicken in my quesadilla could have been more evenly distributed. My husband found the pork to be very good and said he would get another dish with pork next time. The staff was friendly and checked-in often, they did seem a little rushed though the restaurant was not too busy. I enjoyed all the decoration and atmosphere, we would try again.

Delicious food at Habanero's!! Table side made guacamole for our group and a pitcher of lime margarita. Friendly staff and super quick to get our food to the table. Festive decor with the changing of seasons too.

It looks like not much from the road because it is in a strip mall, but once you go inside and see how nice it is you are pleasantly surprised. You can sit inside or outside on the patio. The service is always with a smile and their margaritas are to die for. I had tacos Al pastor and the salsa and seasoning they use is delish. Definitely a wonderful experience. Only reason I didn't give the place 5 stars is because I wish they had more salad options and flautas.

Update: I came back to Habanero's. Once again, I wasn't able to finish my meal. The portions are so big that it's almost guaranteed you'll have leftovers. The burrito was good. I decided to deviate from my usual taco order. I liked the Oaxaca burrito with steak. I'm tempted to try the chicken next time I go. The margaritas are good. A $14 investment but the glasses are huge. I'd say it's well worth the price.

Visited for a company multi-person retirement party. We took over the bar side of the restaurant and the cerveza's and margaritas were flowing. There was a nice spread of food available as well but there was no need to look any further than the guacamole, pico de gallo and ceviche all were seriously without hesitation the best I have ever eaten. Sad I don't have any photographic proof but trust me and be sure to order these three menu options you will not be disappointed.
