They even have Non Alcoholic Margaritas. The atmosphere is laid back and the menus are SUPER nice. Almost Luxurious. The bathrooms are clean and there's plenty of parking. (In the strip mall and Walmart plaza) Good amount, and quality of food. There's also many options. It would be a tie for La Fiesta on Western. I think this place IS just 5-15% more expensive. Our bill was like $70 when we went the one time. And $50 the next. And La Fiesta usually costs around $45 for Two and the baby. They are kid friendly with high chairs and whatnot. Just be careful... if you have a Rambunctious 2 year old like I do... the booths are easy to climb. LOL. My Recommendations: -Try the Alcohol Free Drinks...they're flavorful! -Mexican Tacos -Chimichangas Pros: -Clean bathrooms -Plenty of Parking -Good, Quality Ingredients and Food -Nice Ambience -Good Location Cons: -the chimichangas are on the smaller side -more expensive than La Fiesta on Western

We had such a great experience at Celestina! We came for Sunday brunch and everything was…read moreabsolutely delicious. The Deluxe Platter was amazing with so much variety, and the Carnitas Hash was flavorful and perfectly cooked. We also tried the enchiladas from the regular menu and they were excellent too. The cheese dip appetizer was super tasty and a great start to the meal! Our server (I wish I remembered her name!) was incredibly friendly and so sweet with our two year-old, which made the experience even better. Everything came out hot, fresh, and delicious. We'll definitely be back!

I ordered the shrimp fajitas which was very tasty. My daughter had ordered the enchiladas Verde. I…read moresaid why would it have tomato sauce when Verde means green. I said she wants it with green sauce because that's how it's supposed to be made not red tomato sauce. The beans tasted very sour like moldy cheese and the rice was very bland and flavorless. I ordered the guacamole which was just chopped up avocado with salsa and an extreme amount of lime juice. So I definitely would not recommend the guacamole because it's not legit guacamole. My daughter said her food was very bland. Soooo why not get legit Mexican to cook some flavor into the food?

Tucked into an average shopping center is a place called Porton, a Mexican restaurant that is a…read moretotal gem! I honestly hate supporting door dash because I hate what it stands for, taking money from local places that already suffer from increasing prices but I did discover them originally by ordering DoorDash and I was blown away. Since then I have been a dine in or takeout customer. The owner is very friendly and they have a variety of things on their menu. I love their taco salad with the cilantro ranch, the crispy beef tacos (which they use quality beef, and you can taste the difference), street tacos, the tortilla soup, birria dilla (their take on birria tacos), flautas, the changa, etc. Honestly it's one of my favorites in town! They are always busy! They have a small dining area inside and outside and offer beer and margaritas, and they have my favorite beverage Jarritos Mandarin. If you are in the area, check them out, I guarantee you will love this place too. Is it taco Tuesday yet? Cheers & Enjoy!

I got the chile Colorado burrito and it was so good. Many Mexican restaurants steak can be tough, but this was really tender. I liked the ambiance, as it was in traditional Mexican theme.

Unfamiliar with area, I was disappointed to learn there wasn't a bunch of highly rated options near my hotel. I'd have to go downtown. That was EXCEPT for Habaneros. And who doesn't like Mexican food ? This hidden gem tucked in an area off the side of the road that you might otherwise notice (at least for me) while driving by. And WHAT A SHAME as this place is EXCELLENT. I went to eat at Habaneros on a Saturday night. When I visited it was busy but not packed, the walls inside were well decorated and I didn't have to wait for seating. The menu essentially said "Try my fajitas" they are best, so I ordered them. While waiting they brought me chips and salsa. The salsa they had was delicious. They serve domestic beers (plus Coronas) there if you want an alcoholic beverage but that's about it. That's okay for me though, a Corona was all I needed. Local IPAs don't pair well with Fajitas IMO. FAJITAS COME OUT. Exactly what the menu said. Sizzling, delicious, seasoning was flavorful and the portions for all the condiments/ingredients were exactly what I needed to fill each of the tortillas. Service was fast and they never forgot about me, consistently checking in on me to ensure I had everything I needed. If you live in or around the Knoxville area and you haven't had Habaneros, please do so. You won't regret the trip.

The staff was pleasant and made an effort to take care of us, but the overall execution could have been better. The food was average at best. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really impressed us or stood out as something we would be excited to come back for. We expected a little more based on the overall experience and left feeling underwhelmed. The ambiance had some positives -- the atmosphere had a nice feel and the setting had potential -- but it didn't fully match the experience we were hoping for. There were some good elements, but it didn't create the kind of memorable dining experience we were looking for. Overall, it wasn't a bad visit, but it also wasn't one that left us wanting to return. We appreciate the effort from the staff, but considering the average food and overall experience, we don't plan on returning.
