Amazing service and the food was great! It’s nice to find a restaurant that is so vegetarian friendly without being gimmicky. They have a great variety of vegetarian and vegan options and they were delicious!!!

The food and table service are great except for that one guy who I asked for water and never brought it, then I asked again for some napkins and I had to ask someone else because he didn’t bring it to me either.

The food was mediocre at best and the margaritas were terrible. We ordered them by the pitcher as we were a large party and the salt was awful which made the drink itself undrinkable. The service was ok but could’ve been better.

Overall, it wasn't ok but I think Habanero Blues thinks it's a club and it's not; it's a sit down restaurant!! (3) requests were made to lower the volume on the music - the music was SO incredibly loud that my party of (5) couldn't hear each other speaking and we had to yell across each other. I'm all for having music in the background and loud enough to hear it but not THAT loud as heard in clubs!! If you want people to return, perhaps get rid of your DJ (who didn't do anything different or special other than just stand there and playing music!) and instead just get a 2-3 hour mixed recording of music suitable for a lively restaurant that you can play repeatedly and control the volume.

Food was great but $7 for an a la carte taco is a little much but other than that it was good
