“ This place is an absolute hit every time we go down to mad beach we have to stop! The Birria and the queso dip are on point .we always get great service and the patio is awesome too! A giant margarita yes please and BOGO margs too!! Please get some more hot sauces besides Cholula and Tabasco! ”
“ This is a very cute restaurant to visit. There is some indoor seating, but if you end up coming when it's busy, there will be a wait. Outside seating is very scenic with views of the beaches as well as the marina. We sat at the outside bar looking out to the marina. The bar tender greeted us right away to take our drink orders and give us menus since we were eating. Drinks are fresh and made quickly. Once we ordered, it seemed like our food was brought out immediately. They were slow at the time so we got lucky to get in quickly. Overall we enjoyed our time and loved the views while having dinner. They do serve drinks to go with lids that are sealed, which we found very nice! We will be back in the future and recommend checking this place out for date night or a family night. ”
“ Julie our server was just wonderful! Food very good - atmosphere fun. Parking .... not so much but worth it! Ask for Julie- she is a gem!! Makes you want to go back! ”
“ Everything was AMAZING. One of the best margaritas I’ve ever had and the grouper tacos were delicious! Too bad we don’t live locally or we would be here every week!!! Mia was also a great server! Good luck in nursing school ”
“ This restaurant has an awesome marina view with good food and service. There is an option to sit inside or outside here, and the outside tables have umbrellas. We did unfortunately wait a bit before anyone came to our table (this was a Sunday evening, peak summer). Additionally, for a place that boasts their Mexican cuisine, the nachos left something to be desired which was disappointing. The rest of the food was excellent, and so was the service. I highly recommend trying the Santa Fe Egg Rolls, Birria Tacos, and Churros. ”
“ We were in the area on vacation and came here on our first night in and loved it so much we came back on our last night here! My husband loved the margaritas and I loved the mocktails! We got the fajitas and the Santa Fe Eggrolls, and the nachos and loved it all. Definitely recommend it whether your local or on vacation ”
“ My mom was visiting from out of state, so we brought her and had a great experience. Bogo Margs all day everyday and good food. The food is definitely shareable! Our waitress, Kerryn, was awesome! Super attentive, friendly and kind! ”
