Well, I will admit we were 2nd table to be sat after opening. After waiting 10 minutes (which gave us ample time to look at menu and decide what we’d like) the server came up and took our drink orders along with appetizer and entrees…ordering our drinks the waiter was expressing that the tea was still brewing. And it would be a few minutes. Then some minutes later we received our queso with no chips and then salsa came with mildly salted, uncooked cold tortilla chips. Not impressed right from the get go. My girl had a cantina chicken bowl, now this chicken was a tough as Samuel L Jackson’s character in pulp fiction and almost inedible. My sons $22 grouper tacos where as cold as ice, he may have started dinging Foreigner… now my short ribs must have been prepared first as the plate was as hot as last years August because only a microwave can do that… we decided to get dessert the chocolate cheesecake was lacking the strawberries and Papito nuts as advertised so we had to tell the server about this who seem to not care. Perhaps his Jedi braids made him able to use the force to ignore us then we also had the churros (over cooked) with ice cream…anti climactic and lack luster. This is the second time we have been to this restaurant and possibly the last. Service was lacking and disappointing food for $122, for
two adults and one teenager.

We had a great dinner on the patio. Jovi gave us excellent service!
Visiting from new jersey for the last few days- been here twice, the food, views and atmosphere were great, and the service was amazing. Tanner was attentive, pleasant, friendly. Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting— a must go to!

My fiancee and I had a lovely dinner overlooking their great view of the marina. We enjoyed the enchiladas and grouper tacos with some of their specialty drinks. Jovi made sure we had an excellent experience, we will be returning guests for sure. ? thanks again marina cantina!
One of my favorite Clearwater restaurants. Love the rooftop bar. Great views & food. Creative Mexican options. The salsa here is amazing! The parking is limited for 30 minutes. Parking on Clearwater beach is limited & expensive.
Vegetarian options: You need to read the menu to find the vegetarian items. There is not a section.

Went there with my sister to hangout for the weekend and ended up having breakfast here. Our waiters name was Ricky and he honestly made the whole experience worthwhile, he was so kind and gave the best service we had all weekend! The food and drinks were also awesome, definitely 10/10 for us!

Jovie is the freaking bomb! Great attitude, great server. The food was great. Gluten-free options are fair, and the salsa was off the chain.
Will be coming back again had great drinks as well.
