    What a wonderful and special night we had! This place is very special. From the warm greeting upon entrance to chef Fernando’s masterful presentation of special dishes to the amazing service and musicians who serenade you…WOW! While I was here to celebrate my birthday, this is a place I would come back to again and again. The ambiance and atmosphere was delightful, and uplifting!o

    A wall was put up blocking the view of an adjacent church plaza. The reason we go to Habanero’s is for the Mexican experience and it is lost now. We have seen this restaurant grow from a few tables to a full blown eatery. Shame. Riley Mullen, West Seattle

    Habaneros wasn’t what we expected after reading Yelp reviews. Staff was friendly enough , food and drinks mediocre . I’d say Touristy .

    Our favorite restaurant overall in San Jose. There are many wonderful restaurants in town (and out of town) but we always take guests to Habaneros. The food is always delicious no matter what we order. Service is consistently excellent. Daniel has been there for years and he makes sure everything is perfect. They have an optional set menu on Tuesdays that is a bargain for 750 pesos. Live music while you dine is very good. Highly recommend!
