Not even know where to start. I was speechless. Starting because the smell was unbearable, it smelled like a bathroom. We were the only people who were going to eat, there was absolutely no one. The atmosphere is very sad, dark and boring, a heavy energy. They did not have any of the a la carte drinks available, we had to have Jarritos, we asked for it with tamarind and they gave us mandarin. A horrible mango juice, it was more water than pulp and was not well blended. And worst of all, the empanadas... the presentation was pathetic. I attach the photo so you can see the CAZÓN empanada, a disgusting black thing, the oil that came out of the empanadas was dark brown! Our hunger went away immediately. The very expensive prices, the delay in delivering the dish, there was no manager, only the waitress and the cook. We only paid for the jug and the Malta. This place made me very sad. We are Venezuelans and there was absolutely nothing Venezuelan about that place, only the flag that has the shark in the restaurant's logo. BUT NOTHING! Terrible, terrible. Health goes to that location and they automatically close it.

I was there today and the food was not great at all. The chuleta kan kan is definitely not what is called, they gave 2 medium sized chuletas sides were ok. The bandeja paisa had bacon as chicharrón and chorizo was a hotdog, not what I expected at all. ?

This place is great. I went with my husband and he tried some authentic latin food. The place looks nice but the food was amazing. Good portions, good price. Nowdays everythings is pricey, and mostly in this area, but they did a great job. I am latin so it was so nice to find a latin place in cocoa beach.We trully recommend this place.Parking: You can park in the back, so you dont have to be worried for your car to be towed.

We enjoyed dining at the Latin Shark! It had an off-the-beaten-track atmosphere, with delicious, authentic food. Our server was very nice and recommended a great dessert for us!

Place looks really good , and our server was sweet and kind. But food was horrible, we waited too long and the ceviche was just like soup, my shrimp sandwich was awful… just bread, mayonnaise and 5 little shrimps … AND OVERPRICED!!!!

It’s sad, for an owner that try to run a restaurant with a horrible food and horrible prices, it’s not going to last. I was there Tuesday 1:00 pm, I was the only one in.The Cuban sandwich, horrible 1 ounce or roast pork, two small pieces of luncheon meat. $19.00 with tax. these guys have no clue what’s a restaurant is all about.

We had lunch at this place several months ago. The food was delicious. We had tried to have lunch again at this place several times. The problem is that this place has been closed when Google says that it is open. Today was one of those days. We arrived at noon and the place was closed. We went someplace else for lunch. I called the Latin Shark around 1 PM and the person who answered the phone said that they were open. By this time we had finished having lunch someplace else. I love the food at this place but do not want to waste more trips to find the place closed when Google says that it is open. For this reason, I'm giving it only one star for service and atmosphere.

Delicious chicken empanadas with a amazing tartare sauce. Server was very nice and helpful.
Try the Cestas con camarones! Please note this plate consists of six micro cestas with minuscule shrimp and costs $25.00...plus a service fee. The food all around is expensive. 18.00 for a sandwich and fries.The service, awesome and attentive.The ambiance is kinda Cuban, kinda I don't know. The food was tasty, small portions, and expensive.I can't recommend this establishment.

Something to be desired after leaving here. The food is food truck quality but fine dining prices. We had two meals and two non-alcoholic drinks that totaled $50 but probably should have been $25.

I am honestly very disappointed with the quality of food. I am not to give reviews, but I need to let people know about it. We ordered a cachapa with cheese only. And we received a cachapa with cheese and ham and melted yellow cheese like mexican and also shredded cheese. The worst was the empanada de pabellon that tasted nothing like it. See picture attached. I would not recommend it.

Worst Venezuelan food we have ever eaten!! My wife and her cousin are Venezuelan, grew up in Venezuela and I lived in Venezuela. The empanada was so bad it almost made my wife sick. It was supposed to be an empanada with pabellón which typically has plantain, black beans, and shredded beef. Some also put cheese in it. We couldn't even identify what was in this empanada when we opened it up. The cachapa had an unknown cheese and sauce in it not normally used in a cachapa. We asked for a cachapa with cheese which is typical and they put slices of ham in it. The prices were also way too high. We spent $135 for only five people! They wanted $12 for a non-alcoholic piña colada! If you want to try true Venezuelan food do NOT go to this restaurant!

I just went there with my famiky. We are frin Venezuela and is our 1st time hete in Cocoa Beach. So having some venezuelan breakfast is a must. But. So disappointed ?, first of all prices are way to high for what yhey offered. I ordered a empanada and It wasn't cooked inside. And when I told the server, she said: "so you dont want it? Of course I don't. Who wants to eat an undercooked empanada? She took it away and not even apologized and acted like it was my fault because I was in the kitchen cooking it. Coffee was $4 and it was a regular coffee, noy even a venezuelan coffee with foam. $5,99 for the empanadas, they were small and mine undercooked. Tequeños were $10 for 4 units. I don't like to leave bad reviews. But come on now. Really bad food and service. Im glad we don't live in the area, so we dont have to come back. Not recommended at all
