The man and I just moved in down the street a couple blocks and have been experimenting with the local restaurants to see what's what. Habanero is a cozy little corner mexican joint that we had heard some good things about, we gave it a try later on a Sunday evening.
We sat in a comfy booth in the back and perused the small but varied menu. Our waitress was kind, and patient with us as we don't speak Norwegian. We ended up ordering chips and salsa to start and the beef fajitas to share.
The chips and salsa weren't what we expected... with our American mindset we expected some chips, with salsa to dip. We actually got a bowl of nachos essentially, which was really tasty. There are also nachos on the menu, I'd be curious to order those next time to see what comes out. The beef fajitas were lightly spiced, not the sizzling kind, but well seasoned an marinated, mixed with onions and peppers. They came with a generous plate of toppings that included salad, guac, hot sauce, salsa, pico, beans and some shredded cheese. They also offered to bring more tortillas. The beef fajitas were like NOK260 per person, 2 person min is required FYI. Chicken was I think NOK229.
So the food was quite good, and you wonder why three stars? Once our meal was complete it took a good 40 minutes for us to get our left overs boxed up, get our check, and be able to pay. They got a bit busy toward the end so I thing we got a bit forgotten. This won't stop us from coming in again though and shouldn't stop you either, just don't be rushed, be happy to chill and take your time. read more
