Creative dishes and good flavor. Always quick service and tasty items. They have their own style and flavor which I enjoy but notice friends and people try to compare to traditional Mexican restaurants. I do wish taco bowl wasn’t so expensive to include meat. I’ve enjoyed many other dishes tacos, tamales, and other plates offered. The inside is cozy. The tamarind margarita is I enjoy the cucumber option as well.

Man. This place is on fire! They add heat to pretty much everything, and I’m not complaining about it.

Good spot for Mexican food. The birria meat in the tacos was delicious but the tacos themselves were difficult to eat. The chicken burritos were very good sauza-style. Rice and beans were average. We are traveling through the area and weren’t let down by this little spot.

I ordered the quesabirria tacos and they were absolutely delicious with the included beef broth. the side of black beans were really good and the salsa had a nice kick to it. I didn’t really care for the side of rice and corn (it doesn’t taste seasoned and lacks flavour).

This was an unexpected surprise! We don’t get to Donelson often, and we chose Habanero Grill based on a little quick research. Loved it! It’s an unassuming little spot, but the food is really good. I’m a fan of mole, and always happy to see it on a menu. It was a good sauce. Everything we had was good.

The Habanero Grill isn’t far from Opry Mills area of Nashville. It is a small establishment with a few parking spots at the store front and additional parking behind the building. It is listed as one of Nashville’s essential dining places. After tasting the food, I certainly understand why. The place is not fancy, but food and service was fantastic.

Wow! This place is the real deal. Delicious! Customer Service is also fantastic. Not a traditional Mexican restaurant. It’s very unique. Some of the dishes are in house creations.

The food is spicy and authentic at this amazing little hole-in-the-wall turned diamond. I can only assume the waiter was the owner. He was the only person I saw working in the packed restaurant, and he did a phenominal job! My son accidentally spilled his water after insisting on a lidless cup. He didn’t skip a beat and remained cheerful the whole time, served amazing food, and smiled the whole time. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

Has quickly become my favorite Mexican spot in Nashville. Worth going for the chips and salsa alone (ask to try to the spicy green salsa too). Very fast and friendly service, good selection of tequilas if you are into that, and the food is awesome. I highly recommend the Arrachera Habanero and the Chiles Toreados are the best i’ve ever had
