Habanero bills itself as "Tex-Mex" which, while potentially delicious, is not "Mexican." (It does, however look relatively authentically Tex-Mex. The proof is in the eating, anyone can write a menu.)
Chinita does not look especially Mexican either. The menu looks pretty generic. "Mexican" food is pretty regional - Oaxacan food is quite different from Yucatecan food for example. "Mexican" food makes about as much sense as "Indian" food. -- Charles (grew up on the Mexican border, has travelled in Mexico, loves Yucatecan food.)
