Habeneros provided a meat and vegetarian taco bar and appetizers for our backyard graduation party last weekend and did a super job! The food was delicious and there was plenty of it -I think more than we even ordered. No one went home hungry! Ordering and pick up service was excellent too. I will definitely have them cater again - highly recommend.

First and last time here! Food was not worth the price. Food came to the table cold. The waiter over charged my sister card then offered her cash back differences. How do you make a mistake like that and then didn't catch it until my sister caught the mistake. Prices on the menu are not accurate. Waiter told us different prices. Those need to be updated. Overall experience was bad. 0 stars

We've been trying to find a new Mexican restaurant close by, so we gave this place a try.We went mid afternoon.We waited awhile to be acknowledged (this was something that I noticed happened often while we were there), I chalked it up to being short staffed.The interior is very cheerfully decorated, but there are many eye sores (holes in booth chairs, grimy floors, stained decorations).On to the food...Holy cilantro! I am not a fan of the stuff and they went overboard with it in everything.We ordered a bowl of guacamole and could barely eat any of it from the cilantro and cheese covering it. Cheese on guac?Nachos were just not very good over all.The fajitas had huge, inedible chunks of peppers and onions, but the meat had a decent flavor.The rice was overcooked and bland.The beans ... were those beans?The burrito ordered was huge and tasted okay.The saving grace and reason for the 3 stars was the dessert.It was some sort of fried cheesecake and he really enjoyed it.Over all, I don't think it was worth the price (we didn't even get refills on our water), but because of the occasion we were celebrating - it was a good time.Will we be back? Hard to say. For now we will venture to other establishments before picking one to add to our frequent visitor list.

Decent Mexican food, but lacking in seasoning. Great service and I had a nice margarita. The food looked good when it came out, but our food was just missing something, I added hot sauce and it helped, but I really would have appreciated more salt or something.

Had an appointment near habaneros, had not been here in a long time. Visited around 5 PM so wasn't too busy. Might have also been happy hour. Had the brisket and steak tacos. Served with the habanero sauce. Food arrived in a timely manner and was nicely plated. Substituted refried beans for the black beans. All in all was very good. Little tip on the salsa....mix some of the habanero with the regular chip salsa to tone it down a bit

I’ve eaten a lot of Mexican food and this was the worst I’ve ever had!! Very horrible! Ordered steak tacos and ground beef chimichangas and the meat tasted like chili meat but at the same time had no flavor. The waitress took forever to come bring us water and she didn’t speak much English so she got my order wrong. Food came out cold. Sent it back and they still tried to charge me for it. The were annoyed that i wasn’t happy but ended up rectifying the problem. It was my first time here, and definitely my last!

Food was delicious and great service. Decent prices and good size servings too. Highly recommend it!!!

We stopped for lunch at Habanero's yesterday and we were blown away by the terrific food, drinks and service. The menu is huge with so many great Mexican options. The waiter helped us determine what to order when we gave him our food preferences. The pitcher of margaritas was perfect and plenty for three people. The food arrived and it looked and tasted fantastic! We all had leftovers because of the large portions. We will certainly be back again :)

Been here 2x so far Stopped here before I had to go in to work as a I work down the street at underwood.Food came out pretty quick and was really good! The first time I ordered a chimichanga and the 2nd time I got 2 tacos (most places let you get 3 for a specific price but it was cool it was good)The first time I went I noticed a celebrity tequila (Kendall Jenner’s) and the menu said add any premium tequila for $1 more and they told me it would be $10…. Then I was like let me get just a shot of it and they still was like $10 so I said forget that no way I’m paying $20 for a drink or $10 for a shot. I felt like once I mentioned it was a celeb tequila they tried to up charge me but other then that everything was good. The lady server was very nice.

I ordered enchiladas los cabos and it was everything! Seasoned well, hot and spicy. I don't really even eat tilapia, but I enjoyed it in that enchilada. Service was good too.
