    Enchilada
    Rafael J.

    I'd heard good things about this restaurant and stopped in for dinner. Overall, i think the best part was the price. This felt like early 2000s pricing, and the food was decent. I wouldn't place this as the best Mexican food in the valley, but it's definitely reasonable especially at the price point and quantity. The restaurant itself is designed like a very classic decor, and there is enough seating for decent sized parties. It was pretty surprising how quickly the food came out. Our waitress was friendly and prompt with her service and we had a great experience.

    El Habanero is a neighborhood treat for Magna. The service is always good, food is always good and consistent in quality and flavor. Ambiance is family oriented, small and quaint. Today I had the shrimp in Diablo sauce, which is spicy and sweet with some corn tortillas. For the price of a few bucks more than the average fast food lunch I got chips and salsa before lunch that come free with every meal and a very nice portion of my meal with rice and beans that will also feed me dinner! So it's a great price for the quality of food and portions you get and it beats fast food any day!

    The food is not good, the service is friendly but unobservant, and there are just better options for Mexican food. The chips are on point.

    Absolutely delicious!…read more I got a BOGO free burrito coupon from their FB feed, so why not? So glad I did! I had the spicy green chili burrito--delicious! Smothered inside and out with their very fine green chili. The tortillas seem homemade, it was fresh and good. My wife had the carne asada burrito. I got a bite of it and the beef is delicious! Such good flavors. I also had the pinto beans and rice, both are very good. The horchata, made with almond milk, was creamy and just the right amount of cinnamon and sweet. They serve flour and corn tortilla chips with three salsas. The chips were excellent. The flour chips are deep fried, really good. The red salsa was the hottest but not bad for heat. The green was good. Now the crema sauce was my favorite, it is really excellent. Nice restaurant, comfortable chairs, nice decor that goes along with their theme. Looks like a comfortable bar. Service was friendly and accommodating. I would like to eat here again and take advantage of the FB coupon for their tacos. Highly recommended! 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

    I definitely meant to come back sooner, but ah, life... So glad that my husband and I could return…read moretoday on a date! They've remodeled in the past three years and I really like what they've done! Beautiful decor and it's now a sit down restaurant, which I really like!! Menu is very similar, but expanded! They brought delicious chips and 3 salsas to the table! The crème one was my favorite!! I got a Pacifico to drink and my husband got a Corona nonalcoholic. I went for the Chicken Mole taco with a side of black beans and rice! Absolutely delicious!! My husband got the Bean and Cheese taco and the Impossible meat taco with a side of tots! Service was great! I'm so glad we finally made it back! Really want to come more frequently!! Also heard they have good breakfast tacos in the morning! Will try those next!

    Family suggested Chile Tepin when we came in from out of town. We were a large group of 20 and they…read moreaccommodated us perfectly. The service was excellent and everything came out much more quickly than I would have expected for a large group. I had the chile relleno and it was the best I've ever had. Perfectly portioned and delicious. Family had everything from fajitas to quesadillas and everyone was quite happy with their meals. The salsa for the chips had a slight kick to it but not enough to stop you from digging in for more. Great experience and staff.

    I'm baffled with both the review count and the high scores. Why?…read more Ambiance. None. Just a bunch of cafeteria style tables spread out in a non-descript space. Service. Fast. Too fast. Food came out within minutes of ordering and all at once. Entrees on top of appetizers. Beer selection. Just the big name brands. Fine. But weirdly the rim of my beer glass was coated with a powder that tasted like ground up Doritos. Yuck. Food. Generic burritos and tacos were acceptable. The queso: Within minutes it cooled into a blob of chewy cheese. The chicken with mole: Chicken was dry and tasteless; the mole was thin and watery, and lacked any hint of chocolate. Did we dine here on an off night? Perhaps since it's a really popular place. Hard to say. All I can say is, it's not for us.
