Habaneros Mexican Grill is a cozy, family-owned Mexican restaurant at 5015 48A Street, just off 50 Avenue in downtown Leduc, Alberta. Locals call us the hidden gem of the Leduc food scene — the place to escape to Mexico for authentic Mexican cuisine, house-made sauces, sizzling fajitas, hearty burritos and generous combo plates, with plenty of gluten-free options and a warm welcome at every table.
Once upon a time, “Dos Güeros” (or two white guys from Canada) had property in Mexico and they enjoyed eating all the great street food there. But, they couldn’t find any food like that when they came back to Canada.
So, brothers Jim and Don started hiring a chef down in Cabo San Lucas to teach them all the secrets and the traditional recipes.
For a while, this good stuff was just for family and friends, or maybe the occasional office potluck. Then one day, they saw a popular restaurant for sale in Leduc. They bought it, and added their traditional Mexican flavours and dishes to the strong Tex-Mex menu that was already in place.
What makes us unique is we take the food we love to eat in Mexico, and interpret it for a Canadian audience here in the Capital Region. We pride ourselves on bold flavours, hand-made salsas, and fresh ingredients. We hope you’ll agree that it feels just like being back in Mexico when you come to Habaneros.
Our menu covers the Mexican and Southwestern classics Leduc keeps ordering — tacos, enchiladas, hearty burritos, sizzling fajita platters, quesadillas, chimichangas, shareable nachos and generous combo plates. Start with an appetizer, finish with dessert, and pair it all with one of our famous margaritas or a non-alcoholic drink. Every plate is cooked to order with quality ingredients, in portions big enough to take home.
Much of our menu can be prepared gluten-free, which is why gluten-free diners and Alberta on the Plate alike name Habaneros a go-to in Leduc. Whether it is a casual family dinner, a date night, a birthday, an office lunch downtown or catering for a special occasion, we serve Leduc by dine-in, phone takeout, online ordering through our website and mobile app, and catering — Tuesday to Thursday from 11:30 AM to 9 PM, Friday and Saturday until 10 PM, and Sunday from 4 PM to 9 PM.
Traditional recipes and house-made sauces prepared in-house with quality ingredients — the authentic Mexican food downtown Leduc has been searching for.
Guests know us for big, hearty plates at fair prices and margaritas worth staying for — ideal for family dinners, date nights and group celebrations in Leduc.
A small local team that knows the menu, welcomes kids and big tables, and is always accommodating and aware when it comes to gluten-free requests.
