By far the best Mexican restaurant in town. Fast and friendly service and the food is so awesome. Do you yourself a favor and stop in.

Writing this on behalf of my family, who had a wedding rehearsal dinner booked at Habaneros and had…read moredoublechecked everything ahead of time. When they arrived, they were told the employee who made the reservation was no longer with the restaurant and that they had "no recollection" of the rehearsal dinner being on the calendar. Mistakes happen, but what was most disappointing was the way the situation was handled. Instead of trying to make it right, the staff was extremely rude and dismissive. Rule number one in owning a restaurant should be taking responsibility when a mistake happens and doing everything you can to make it right. We understand that employees leave and things can get missed, but the restaurant's response was what was most disappointing. There was no real attempt to take ownership of the situation or accommodate the family. This was an important family event, and they were left scrambling because the restaurant failed to honor a reservation that had been confirmed. Why would a restaurant choose to lose the business of an entire rehearsal dinner party rather than make an effort to accommodate the situation? But don't worry--we found another place at the last minute, and they were amazing! They went above and beyond to accommodate our family and made what could have been a very stressful situation into a wonderful evening. So thankful we ended up somewhere that truly valued our business. Very disappointing experience with Habaneros and definitely not the level of customer service you would expect from a restaurant.

We visited El Parian with a pretty good test group: my wife, our daughter Whitnie, her partners,…read moretwo kids and me. Our dining challenges are always part of the equation. My wife has gluten and dairy allergies, while I bring a tree nut allergy and Alpha-Gal to the table, with a diabetes kicker just to keep things interesting. Fortunately, Mexican food is generally one of the easier cuisines for us to navigate. I had the chicken street tacos, my wife had the tostadas, and the rest of the table worked through a variety of dishes. Overall, the food was good and everyone seemed happy with their meals. They did get a couple of the orders wrong, but once we pointed out the mistakes, they were quick to correct them. Service was probably the weakest part of the experience. We waited a while to place our orders, drinks went empty a couple of times, and eventually we had to flag someone down to get the check. Nothing disastrous, but the service could definitely have been more attentive. The atmosphere, on the other hand, is pretty cool. The décor is colorful, with unique metal statues, and overall is polished and very much on point for a place billing itself around steaks and tequila. It feels more upscale and interesting than your basic neighborhood Mexican restaurant without becoming stuffy. It also worked well with two kids at the table, so I'd have no hesitation bringing a family. The atmosphere is nice enough for a casual business meal, and I think it works for pretty much any stage of dating, from a first date to an easy dinner with someone you've been with for years. Overall, a good experience. Good food, fun atmosphere and family friendly. Tighten up the service a little and it becomes an even stronger option in Lancaster.

So we started looking around and my wife found this place. So we traveled to Lancaster Ohio on a rainy Wednesday night. We walked in and was surprised by the ambience. It was quirky, but charming. The staff was attentive and intentional. The chips tasted like they just came out of the fryer. The queso dip was great. We ordered our entrées with a half hearted Hope of expectations of days long gone. When the entrées arrived, we just could not be more impressed with the presentation. And then the food and we all sampled each other's. The taco meat inside the burrito was flavorful like it had been cooked on purpose. The monstrosity of a fajita that I got the chicken was kind of like a Hispanic version of chicken Parmesan. The steak, well prepared and the shrimp was incredibly plump and juicy. All the mixtures gathered at the bottom of the basin bowl just waiting to be dipped like a fountain of youth, the basin of expectation and it was to my utter taste buds delight.
