Habacu's Mexican - Minden

The service was excellent, but the food took much longer than expected. My husband and I were dining in a nearly empty restaurant, with just a few other tables occupied, yet it still took 40 minutes for our meal to arrive even though we only ordered one dish. The prices are quite high, and there are no descriptions of the menu items or what is included with each meal. We ordered 3 street tacos for $15, which were just okay. It’s easy to see why this restaurant closed in Minden.

The food was just average, especially considering the prices, which are about one and a half times higher than those of other nearby Mexican restaurants. The atmosphere felt dark and gloomy. The service was satisfactory; however, I've since learned that the owner has terminated all Caucasian employees. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I only gave it one star because that was the minimum I could provide.

We visited during the Scottish festival, and surprisingly, the restaurant was empty. The service was dreadful. I suspect our waitress was under the influence; she forgot my order despite there only being one other person in our party. The food was also disappointing. This experience was upsetting, especially since we’ve been loyal customers since they first opened and used to really enjoy it.

The restaurant can be fantastic at times, but there are also moments when it falls short. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the staff is consistently attentive. However, cooks need to maintain a higher standard for their food.

Dining Experience: Dinner Price Range: $50–100 per person Food Quality: 5/5 Service Quality: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Recommended Dish: Tacos I had an exceptional dining experience at this restaurant! For dinner, the meal was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The tacos were a standout—rich in flavor and expertly crafted. Both the food and service received top marks, and the inviting atmosphere made it all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend giving it a try!
