Rockin' Tacos

we had the best waitress ever she was amazing. the food was delicious also

Please STOP deleting my reviews on Google and Yelp!!!!!!!! I recently visited this restaurant and while the service and atmosphere were decent, the food left a lot to be desired. I ordered the Classic Burger and asked the waitress for pickles, she told me they didn’t offer any. That already felt strange for a burger, but I gave it a shot anyway. The burger itself tasted like something you’d get from a high school cafeteria: bland, overcooked, and uninspired. The tater tots were completely unseasoned, which the manager later confirmed is how they’re served. That’s honestly just lazy. I also brought up the taste of the water, which was absolutely awful, it had a strong chlorine flavor that made it nearly undrinkable. When I mentioned this to the manager, he said it’s because they add chlorine due to being close to the Gulf of Mexico. As someone from Houston (also near the Gulf), I found this explanation lacking, our water doesn’t taste like that. The manager told me, verbatim, “I served 600 people today and you’re the only one with a complaint.” Instead of addressing the issue with empathy, he deflected. He only offered a discount on my portion of the bill, not my friend’s, and didn’t explain the SEA charge until I asked. I later found out it was an additional fee meant to protect sea life in the area, which I support in theory, but it wasn’t disclosed in advance. Bottom line: the food was extremely disappointing, the water was barely drinkable, and the management came off as dismissive. There are too many great places in the area to waste your time or money here. I won’t be returning.

Rockin Tacos has great food, wonderful service and the view of the Gulf is spectacular!

Great drinks, great service, great food
Firm handshakes all around.
One of my families favorite spots ❤️

I would not recommend this place.
Tacos were sub par and way over priced for 2 tacos that you get. Chips and salsa were the best part.
Told waitress about a celiac (gluten) allergy and the food was served gluten-full. Nothing was done to make it right. *Avoid this place if you have an allergy.*
The only reason Id go back is to have chips and a drink. Ill admit -there is a nice view if you sit on the edge.

Great view of the beach when eating outside. Food though, mediocre at best. Had to pay extra for chips and salsa and the salsa was very bland. On my chicken burrito I found myself taking drinks to rid my mouth of the aftertaste of the food.

We were not impressed with our server on this trip. We feel because we didn't buy adult beverages our service was subpar

This was the most disappointing meal of our week. The food was not that great. Shrimp Quesadilla is cut into 4 pieces and only the 2 in the middle had shrimp. The rockin nachos had 1 shrimp in the whole plate of mediocre nachos. Just a very disappointing meal. We will not be returning should we find ourselves in the area. Over priced drinks, meh service, mediocre food. There are certainly better options in Ft Walton

TOURIST TRAP!! Most of the food is mid at best, service was mid at best as well. Only redeeming factor is the view if the seagulls decide to leave you alone.

The tacos are great! We've had the Baja shrimp and the lobster tacos. But do not get the enchiladas! They are bland and overly cheesy.

Ordered Gator Tacos, salsa, mango salsa, and queso. Everything was great, but the queso was pretty runny.

The chicken and steak tacos had no seasoning at all- they were honestly gross. The service was awful/ non- existent. Just don’t waste your money
