We love this place! It’s always a must go to when we’re in town. Last night I had the surf and turf and everything was amazing. Pablo, Melody and the rest of the team do a fabulous job with their attention to detail. I also have to mention that the band that plays there is also top notch. Best in San Jose’ by far!

Our waitress was Melody, she was so friendly and helpful. She gave us local insight and answered all of our questions. The food was good - tuna ceviche and ribs were the best! The atmosphere was beautiful and authentic. We even looked at the hotel for a future place to stay on a quick trip.

Great experience from the moment we were greeted until we left. The hostess recommended the Wellington rellano which was outstanding. Drinks were excellent as well. Wonderful family of musicians played Spanish music with a touch of jazz. The service was the finest we have experienced…anywhere!! Warm, attentive to the smallest detail. Can’t wait to return.

Loved everything except the price of the Margarita Special. 2500 pesos for 5 drinks. Worked out to $38.00 CDN for each one. I felt like we got a scammed. Lesson learned always ask the price first.

We have been going here for years at the previous location. Tonight was awful. Waited 45 to get a cocktail, over an hour for food. My chicken dish was bland and something I could have prepared better. We asked over and over for water before we got it, only 1 large fan so pretty miserably hot. We will not be back. There is sooooo much good food in SJdC you just don’t need to put this on your list. Try Fiorenzas! Amazing service there!

We had great experiences at Habaneros. We rarely return to a restaurant on the same trip but had such a wonderful dinner the first time, we went back 2 days later. We requested Danny again after we enjoyed his impeccable service and fun personality on our first visit. It was hot and humid, but Habanero's has a lovely air conditioned room. Everything we ate was delicious. We especially liked the short rib and the Chile Wellington entrees. We look forward to trying breakfast next time we're in town, although we'd miss Danny!

The setting is beautiful. The musicians were awesome. The food was very good. Our server, the manager and the bus person were excellent. I apologize for not giving a shout out to our server because I’m terrible with names. The competition in this city is amazing, so you have to be excellent to make it here. We had a great bottle of wine from the Guadalupe Valley. They were very attentive. They even ordered a taxi for us and our server walked us out when it arrived.

Wow is all we can say!! Excellent staff and the best Tuna ceviche I’ve ever had. It is located in the art district. It was our Anniversary and we were very blessed to have a mariachi band play for us. Santana jr played as good as Carlos Santana. We highly recommend Habanero’s grill. Thank you gor an amazing meal and experience!!

First time we tried Habaneros - and we loved it. A bit too hot (July) to sit outside, yet it was in a beautiful courtyard. We moved to inside the restaurant which had AC that was perfect. Food was excellent and well priced. Our waiter attentive. Highly recommend.

Overall, we enjoyed dinner. The ribs were very good along with the jalapeño mashed potatoes. The asparagus was good, but had far more stems than tops. The catch of the day, Seabass, was very good, but there was very little risotto or other elements to the dish. Our waiter was hard-working and very pleasant, but spread too thin so service was moderate at best.

So disappointed with our meal. We are locals and took out of town friends to “one of our favorite places”. Three out of the 4 of us had badly cooked food. My husband had the fish, it was rubbery and raw in parts. I had Parmesan Shrimp and it was dry and flavorless. One of our guest ordered the mushroom risotto. She said the mushrooms were chewy and not good. We told our waiter about the fish and he just looked at it and carried it away without saying anything. We paid our full bill without complaining and left. So sad but we won’t be back.
