Pleasantly surprised at how quick the food came out, probably less than 5 minutes total waiting time! Delicious salsa, so fresh! Had the enchiladas and I couldnt have enjoyed them more! My husband ordered the big burrito and said it was the best Mexican he has ever had in FL, considering we are from NY. The chicken: moist and delicious, not just shredded bits of who knows what part of the chicken, but really gorgeous and tasty white meat. The shredded beef in the chimichangas (ordered that, too, to have a taste of the most popular dishes) and fell in love immediately. I never eat guac, but I could not hold back from theirs! Made fresh daily, like their salsa. Screw anyones opinion as this being a bad restaurant or the food being comparative to taco bell...youve gotta be kidding me! Try it for yourself and you will leave happy, promise!

Save your money . Back in the area after a couple of years and brought friends to what had been a favorite place to eat. The salsa was now watery and the chips no longer warmed. The Margaritas where in overly thick mugs and filled with ice. The Carna Asada was very thin cut, very well done and leathery while also overly spicy. My Mole Chicken was dry (how does a kitchen even DO that)? We where the only table at the start and I had to call for the waiter too come from the kitchen after waiting over 15 minutes to order after our drinks arrived. No reason to go back. So much for Tex-Mex in the Wekiva Springs area. Waisted about $70.00 for four! I wonder what happened?

Vegetarians and those seeking a kosher diet be aware- though they claim to offer vegetarian entrees, their beans actually have lard in them. :( Some people may follow these diets more strictly than others but I dont think it is appropriate to offer vegetarian options on the menu that are not actually fully vegetarian. Also, when we asked about alternatives/substitutions so we could still eat there, the server was pretty unhelpful and we left without eating. Ive heard good things about the food here so it may be fine if you arent vegetarian or dont care about lard, but just wanted to share our experience.

I didnt think I was going to be able to find REAL Mexican food down here. I have been refered to Mexican places that are really bland or just really bad. This is closest as I can get to "real" mexican food being from California. My husband and I had the Chile Rellenos, Enchiladas and Burrito. It was pretty good! I love the size drinks they give too. You dont get frustrated having to wait to be re-filled or to ask for another one. I will definately be going back! Prices are good too. Husband and I spent about 25 dollars for the two of us. Hope the review helps.

I had a great experience with my family. I came in separate and was greeted by host and he knew my party before I could describe them and walked me to them. Great!! It looks smaller from the outside and was surprised at the interior which seemed pretty large inside and also very warm, lively, and clean. The beer was great - love the big frosty mugs for the Negra Modelo! The food tasted great and the desert was even better. Our waiter was great and checked on us often. We will be back!

The place is a very good looking spot, went with my family to have dinner, we were all having a good time enjoying the food when a little piece of metal came up on my beans I was very lucky that I saw it wouldve been ugly if I wouldve ate it ,,we call our server and explain to him we were very upset then he went and call the kitchen manager , they apologize and of course denied that that it came from the kitchen,, ever since I have not gone back to that place ....

This place SUCKS. Taco Bell would have been a better choice any day of the week. Worst customer service Ive ever had. Waiters were complete jerks. Waiter brought drinks out 30 minutes later, and the WRONG ones at that. Not sure if there is more locations for this habaneros Mexican grill but the location in apopka across the Italian kitchen is hands down the worst customer service Ive experienced EVER!

Well worth the wait! I am kind of picky and wasnt sure if I really wanted to try another place since I moved here 5 months ago. Stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the great food and even better service. My waitress was amazing, but I didnt even know she was my waitress at first, because there were so many people willing to help with anything I needed. I highly recommended coming here.

We just moved to the area 3 weeks ago. We had a lovely lunch at this restaurant. Staff are friendly and food is very authentic and delicious. I realized that I lost my anniversary bracelet after we got home. Could not find it anywhere. Husband went back to the restaurant and the staff handed him a broken bracelet. A big thank you to the kind and honest staff at this restaurant. THANK YOU!!!!!!

This is THE BEST Mexican restaurant in town. You will only need to go here for the queso and the margaritas but everything on the menu is dynamite. Lunch specials are very affordable. The service is awesome and we have even met the manager. Steak and shrimp is the best dinner special and the chimichanga is the best lunch special although you will not be disappointed by anything on the menu.

Not impressed with the service or food. Took over 45 minutes for 2 meals. My fiance got chicken Chipotle and said it was amazing. I got steak fajitas. The steak was very dry and there was an overwhelming amount of peppers and onions and hardly any steak. Restaurant was also freezing cold. On the plus side, very inexpensive food.

So as I sit and try to enjoy my lunch a gentleman is on his loud speaker phone. He is very obscene and as I ask the sever to ask him to ask the gentleman to do something about it he says he cannot. We ask for a manager and there is none on duty until after 5pm. I dont recommend every going back if you are a while female

Good crew, nice folks, fun theme, salsa and cheese are both watery - not spicy, many dishes are heavy on beans .. yea, I know its mexican, but my gringo-mexicana kills this place. Next time Ill save a couple bucks and stop at taco bell, its probably better. Will check back in a few years, maybe they get it

The waiter we had spoke limited English so he had trouble taking my food order when I had a question about the menu. Otherwise everything was great! The food was amazing and the chips/salsa was some of the best Ive had at a Mexican restaurant. I will definitely be coming back.

Get the carnitas tacos and be very specific to get the following - soft corn tortillas, pico on the side, with onions and cilantro on it Oh and dont forget the habaneros home sauce on the side.... Ive been having this dish for years... And every time I go I find it amazing...

Frozen margaritas have hardly any alcohol and taste like expired 7 eleven slurpee, i think the food is a little overpriced for what you get. The bartenders can be unattentive. Ive visted Habaneros several times hoping for a better experience but it never changes.
