Guestbook
“ The food is incredible, and the 2 for 1 Margheritas are delicious. We had the empanadas and the al pastor tacos and everything was incredible. Great spot to sit and drink, and it's right on the coast across the street from the beach. The music and vibes are very laid back and our waitress was so nice and helpful! I would highly recommend this spot. ”
“ My husband and I tried this place for the first time while on vacation. We ended coming here twice because of the margaritas! The margaritas were really good here, and great prices for them! You can even take your drinks to go if you aren't finished with it. Highly recommend giving the coconut shrimp a try! We really enjoyed those. The burrito, however, was extremely dry and not that good. The wings were good too we got the medium & they had great flavor. ”
“ Came here on a Monday afternoon for a birthday lunch with my daughter and it was a perfect little stop. Tania was our server and she was super sweet and attentive. Sat outside with beautiful ocean view and fun people watching but it was nice and cool from the breeze coming off the restaurant’s ac which made it super comfortable to be outside. Overall our experience was great and we enjoyed the food! ”
“ Stopped by here for lunch and it was probably the busiest place on the strip for a couple blocks but not over crowded. While they have weekly specials and happy hour all day, be aware that 2 for 1 items are per person (like you and a friend can’t get 2 giant margaritas and just pay for one). Service was attentive when around but also missing some of the time. The food was tasty but the queso on the burrito was pretty salty. Also the burrito was very dense, missing something fresh or with a crunch or something to give it dimension. The loaded taco salad and the fiesta bowl comes in a huge taco shell which is always a plus on my book. The salad was good but very lettuce dense (about 3/4 of the tall shell bowl) and if you ate just from the top down, about halfway through you’d only have lettuce left. The chicken on the salad was quite tasty. Lastly, the view from the sidewalk seating can’t be beat on a beautiful So Flo day. ”
“ Stopped in for lunch on a Tuesday. It is right across from Fort Lauderdale Beach and has a wonderful covered patio. Our waitress Tashi, was wonderful. She was so friendly and a great server. We had the tacos, white rice, and beans. The food was served hot and tasted very fresh. Drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. Freddy also checked on us often and was very friendly. Great experience, highly recommend, and will be back! ”
