    Very tasty Yucatán cuisine, lots of pork dishes are expected and are really good. The aguas frescas were delicious and what really sold this place for me was the customization of salsa and handmade tortillas to order. Not giving it a full 5 stars because the service was slow at times and the ambience.

    Food is okay and delicious, just not too impressive for my authentic flavor hunt. Service is overall good. Pozole de Mariscos is not rich in the soup, so it’s a 3 star for me. Ki’il, a platter of pimito, panucho, salbute, papadzule, longaniza sausage and empanada. Pimito and longaniza are delicious , the other ones are just okay. Very small bite and I can hardly taste any bean paste in the panucho. Recommended for the atmosphere and fresh made salsa and tortilla, but not for authentic food hunter.

    I need to update. Something has happened and this time the food and service were terrible. Brought a friend and I was embarrassed at howbad everything was. What a difference a few months makes. Three months earlier Wow. Loved it here. Great food. Great service. Handmade freshmade tortillas and decide your type of custom molcate. The butter bread cake was super tasty. Not to sweet and not dry.

    Good service. Delicious homemade salsa and corn tortillas. Cochinita pibil was good, salbutes were amazing, and the turkey was tasty too. Nice tamarind water. The venue was ok. Overall, a good restaurant for authentic regional food.

    Really good food and their breakfast packages are a good deal. They make tortillas on site and they let you customize your own salsa by choosing your base and which peppers you want included.

    We ordered a plate that comes w/ many different small portions of the main dishes of Yucatan & some were different than what we’re used to, & some were different but in a good way, perfect for 2 people to share. Service was slow though, very slow, place was full of people but pretty clean. Do recommend

    Great service with friendly staff. I ordered the chilaquiles with cochinita and it was phenomenal. They were able to develop and layer a lot of flavor. My wife ordered green enchiladas which were excellent. The orange cake was also tasty. They also prepare custom salsa for you where you pick which chiles you want in it. The real star of the show was the Cafe de Olla which was perfect.

    Best restaurants in town, hands down. Going back to try the breakfast menu soon. Loved the freshly made tortillas, the lime soup, the custom salsa, and the guacamole and chips. All the staff work together to make your visit excellent. This place is a Must Stop if you're nearby. They have an English menu too!

    This is probably one of the best things I've ever put into my mouth. If you want to explore and experience the most delicious and delightful Yucatan food, this is where it's at.

  • 4/5 Kat K. 1 year ago on Google
    Delightful service and nice ambiance. The food is prepared fresh. You can watch how the tortillas and salsas are prepared. We really enjoyed the chili-potatoes and ha’ sikil p’ak, a salsa made with pumpkin seeds and tomatoes. Vegan options available.

    This review is written based on our visit to Habaneros in November 2022. My wife and I were looking for a place to take some friends and our Spanish teacher out for a nice dinner. We had been to this Habaneros approximately one year early on our 1st visit to Mérida. We found the service to be outstanding and all the staff to be outstanding. My wife sent a text message to their contact number on WhatsApp asking if we needed to make a reservation. The restaurant immediately responded letting her know we didn’t need a reservation and adding a warm welcome back to the restaurant. Upon our arrival at Habaneros we were met with the customary greeting at the door by a young lady with an warm smile on her face. We found the food and service to be as good if not better than our visit the previous year. Habaneros is known for their freshly made Mayan food and they have continued that same tradition. You know how they say the “Save the best for last”, well I want to let everyone reading this review know that the service was the best. We had a server named Oscar and another young gentleman that I did not get his name. These two young gentlemen are golden assets to Habaneros. They are both bilingual, they are young, but their professional mannerisms is that of a seasoned veteran. The gentlemen are everything and more that any business wants representing their brand and their name. I can only say that the parents of these two young men would be very proud of the way their sons were on this night. I would definitely recommend you visit Habaneros as a 5 stars establishment and these gentlemen are provided 5 star service.

    Amazing sampler- we got to try sopa de lima, and 4 traditional yucatan dishes. The restaurant has a cozy, homy feel. Its a bit out of the way, so less touristy. Food is very authentic.

    Amazing food. Homemade corn tortillas and you get to design your own salsa. Really good.

  • 5/5 Don V. 11 months ago on Google
    Even for a busy morning, the service was top notch, not to mention the food and the ambience was pretty nice. Coming back to eat there as soon I'm back to Mérida.

  • 5/5 Jason H. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food and service. Loved the classic dishes local to the Yucatán.

  • 3/5 Julian A. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice food, but the service is quite slow. There is a bunch of people from the restaurant just standing at the back of the restaurant which is somehow weird. The best is that you can select the ingredients for you salsa and they made it for you.

    Great place for authentic Yucatán food. The service was fast and very friendly. If you are looking for a place to try authentic food this is the place and it’s close to all the shops and hotels.
