"Habanero is home to some of the best fajitas in town, and that alone makes it worth a visit at any time of the day. Get them ranchera style and they’ll arrive extra spicy and tossed in with some charred jalapeños, onions, and tomatoes. It’s been around since the ’90s, in that time amassing a following of old-school Austinites, new transplants to the area, and soon, probably you. Show up during prime breakfast or lunch hours on the weekends, and you’ll inevitably find a wait. It’s worth it." - nicolai mccrary
