“I’m writing this to applaud Alana B. for her amazing customer service. She was so sweet and didn’t rush me. Definitely the best drive thru experience I’ve ever had at this location. Not to mention the food was super hot and fresh, perfect after a long night of work. Thank you Alana!!!!“

“Since moving here from Texas I’ve been DESPERATE to find some good mexican food, and I finally found it! We went for the late night happy hour, they had great drink specials, the bartender was friendly and the food was so amazing. The street corn and pork belly tacos were my favorites but everything I ate was just perfection. I’ll definitely be back“

“My brother's and I visited Rocco's for lunch and had an excellent experience.

The overall layout was very welcoming and the staff made us feel right at home.

Most places I get table side guacamole I feel as if the ingredients haven't had enough time to marinate, but here the seasonings made it perfect and it had a lot of good flavor.

We ordered the burrito bowl, tacos, and quesadilla all of which came out great. Especially the chorizo tacos. Those we a a favorite by far.

The bar tender was kind enough to put together a unique flight of tequila for us to try as well. We all enjoyed it and had a chance to try something new.

The manager stopped by one or two times to make sure everything was good and that we were happy and our waitress was very attentive and checked on our table often.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rocco's. The establishment was clean, well ran, with great service, good tequila, and awesome food!“

“The food, cocktails and staff over the top wonderful! We highly recommend the great menu and the margaritas were delicious! The staff was so efficient, helpful and full of fun! Please give them try...you will not regret your decision!“

“We love Epazote. Best Mexican food! Simonne and Hugo are awesome hosts and Hugo is an incredible chef. HIGHLY recommend !“

“Excellent service. Very clean. I am visiting from Texas, been 2x in 5 days. The Guacamole made to order is delicious! Cold, frosted glass of corona was the icing on the GUACAMOLE! 🥰😎 will definitely be back. 5-27-2025“

“The service was amazing because of Deyanira she did great service she explained the menu and recommended to us her favorite plate it was delicious . Hopefully she gets a great recognition from her manager because she deserves it I will definitely coming back soon .“

“Best place around. Friendly Staff. Great food. Go there to watch soccer games. They have them all. La Liga-Premier League, you name it. Taco salad is a must. Don't miss this Gem.“

“Day 5 Happy Hour at El Camino location in Boca Raton, FL was incredible. The place was buzzing, but the atmosphere was fantastic. We snagged a table pretty quickly despite the crowd. Our server, John, was top-notch. We started with a $6 margarita & a michelada, & the tamarind straw was a game-changer. The food was phenomenal - chips with salsa, pork tamale, chicharrones, & more. We were stuffed, but the flavors were perfection. What a steal!“

“a go-to to get my street taco fix until I get back to Mexico!!“

“We live really close to this little gem, always wanted to try it and FINALLY made it there for lunch today. What a huge loss that we waited so long! Their food is so good. I ordered the 2 carna asada taco lunch special which came with beans and rice. My husband ordered the carnita taco lunch special. The meat was so flavorful and juicy. The rice was fluffy, the beans were topped with melted cheese. We ordered a side of chips and salsa. The chips were warm, crunchy and seemed freshly made. Absolutely amazing lunch.... We will not wait too long to return here to eat.“

“Our new favorite place Can't believe we have been sleeping on this place since it's literally down the street from my house. Punkys Tacos is an absolute vibe and the food is fire. 🔥 We are already planning what we are getting next time Our server Julie was great with suggestions of favorites especially since it was our first time. Queso dip and Chips - the addition of chorizo was a nice twist that jazzed this classic up Cheetodilla - I cant even put into words this quesadilla with a hot cheeto twist. My daughter ❤️ loved it Fish tacos - perfectly crunchy Mahi with Pink corn shells .. Pink !!!!! The atmosphere of the place was enjoyable with music 🎶 and table settings that gave it a homey feel. Next Friday is there 1 year anniversary and they are having a big party. Go check them out.“

“Great lobster taco! Enjoyed with a margarita!“

“We went on a Thursday night for my birthday, very fun place, they sing out a hat on me and sign like mariachi for the birthday song🥳🤣❤️ loved it

For the food, we ordered:

Fajitas for 1 and fajitas for 2: veryyyy generous amount of food, my husband ordered the one for 1 and was able to take home leftovers for the other day. Same with the one for two, I would say you can either take home some or eat 3, the only thing is that you would have to ask for more tortillas. 5/5

Birria tacos: comes with 4, very generous amount, also comes with the consome so you can dip it, so good😍 5/5

GuacaTacos tacos: comes with 3, we ordered to pastor and one carnitas on soft taco, they were good too. 4/5

Chimichanga: sooo crunchy, very nice, also good portion for one person, my abuela took some home too!

Margaritas: they were normal honestly, simple ones nothing out of the ordinary.

The service was good, the server was so nice and explaining everything, only thing was a little delayed on bringing the food out, the plates were ready sitting there for a while, I had to ask to get one warm again, because the ladies were just on their phone, while the guy was doing drinks and serving other people.

Either than that, everything else was very good.

Also for the prices if you are drinking it gets a little price, we pay like $40 per person only one drink each.“

“The bowls were awesome! The perfect amount for a great dinner. They have a lot of options to choose from in their menu and have a lot of additional toppings. Everything is perfectly seasoned and have great prices so the whole family can enjoy!!“

“I just had the most amazing shrimp Quesadilla!!! The food is always fresh and cooked to perfection 👍“

“We arrived at Taco Craft a little after 7 PM, and it was pretty calm—not too packed. We were attended to right away, which was a great start. Parking is convenient since it’s located in the Modera residence building, and there’s also free city parking nearby. I ordered the spicy pineapple drink, and my husband got the passion fruit—both were delicious! We went with the “3 sauces special” and the “3 tacos platter,” and everything was excellent from start to finish. Our waitress, Michelle, was amazing—very knowledgeable about the menu and Taco Craft overall.
There’s also a DJ on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays who plays really good music, which adds a great vibe to the atmosphere.
This was our first time here, and everything exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be coming back! 🌮✨“

“Everything was so fresh, the atmosphere and service were exceptional!“

“Accidentally ended up here as other restaurants in the strip mall were full or didn't appeal to us at the time. VERY impressed. Wait staff was friendly & helpful, margaritas were good, cold and powerful and the food was great. Wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon. We will be back!“

“The food at El Guanaco is the best hands down. I refer people all the time for food . We have been going a few years but not much the last few months due to the service. Sometimes you can put up with mediocre service because the food is so good . But today was the second time service was subpar… Today we waited 20 minutes and still no order taken ….There was another table with no beverages that was sat before us . We decided to leave and offered to pay for the beverages and chips but they would not let us pay . The cashier said she could take our order but we already had waited and decided it was best to just go ahead and leave …On the way out there were 3 vacant tables inside ….If we eat El Guanico in the future we will order to go because the service is just not there anymore. The food is the best but not going back anytime soon to dine in …Food 5 ⭐️ service 3⭐️…..“

“The portions were very good and food was tasty“

“Sehr lecker und macht viel Spaß“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had an amazing experience at Naked Taco! The atmosphere is vibrant and fun, perfect for both a casual bite or a night out. The food was absolutely delicious – fresh, flavorful, and packed with unique twists that make their tacos stand out. The staff was super friendly and attentive, making sure everything was just right. The drinks were also top-notch, especially the margaritas – refreshing and perfectly balanced. Overall, a fantastic spot that I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for great food, great vibes, and excellent service. Can’t wait to come back! 🌮🍹“

“Several vegan options, very fresh. I ate my tacos so fast that I forgot to take a picture. The quinoa and tofu tacos were so flavorful and come with fresh sauce that set these tacos apart. Decent portion sizes align with pricing. The poblano tacos are smooth and savory. Must try!!“

“phenomenal food and nice staff“

“great place to grab a bit and hang with friends.“

“Atmosphere: great, the soft dim lighting and comfortable chairs were great. I only wish spacing between the tables was a little wider, but it’s south florida, so I get it. Space can be hard to come by. They had live music too which was a nice touch.

Service: staff was attentive and upbeat, everything came out on time without delay.

Food: this is the only part where the experience felt a little lacking. The food wasn’t bad, but for the price point and portions it definitely felt like there was something left to be desired. The drinks were great though.

Overall, I’d say 4 stars

I would recommend this place for a nice mid-to-upscale cocktail session with some small appetizers and latin music.
Probably wouldn’t pick this one as a standout if I’m looking specifically for Mexican food.“

“Amazing Mexican food! Been coming to this place for years.“

“Not the friendliest staff, but who cares? You go out to eat, to eat, and these people can cook. It is now my standing reservation where in my way to my second job in Monday’s Tuesdays I will stop by and order the chicken soft shell tacos. The salsa is on point, fresh corn tortillas and the chicken is cooked to perfection. If you are in to authentic food stop by, you won’t regret it. Decorations are beautiful.“

“Delicious and authentic Mexican cuisine! Love the empanadas, queso fundido & fajitas!“

“The food here is absolutely amazing - authentic Mexican! I’ve tried different dishes, and none have disappointed. I highly recommend the molcajete, I’ve had it at many places, but this one is by far the best. The service is always wonderful too. The ladies are very attentive. Damaris heard it was my and my sister-in-law birthday, and surprised us with cake, which was such a sweet detail. And I have to mention her micheladas, they are so good and I’m not even a beer (or michelada) person. Highly recommended this place!“

“Excellent tacos tiny place very friendly staff“

“Been going for over 25 years. I do try plenty of other competitors because I’m a foodie. OLE OLE is the best there is. Never change! Love the whole enchilada and the salsa.“

“I driving 30 minutes for eat this spot is 🔥 and perfect quality food“

“Usually pretty good. I placed a pickup order online for a Carne Asada Burroto, picked it up, got home and opened it and it was some tacos. I think I got someone else's order. Called to see if I could bring it back and get the burrito I ordered and it immediately goes to voice mail repeatedly. Oh well...guess I'm having tacos? Tell me you're tired of doing this without telling me you're tired of doing this.“

“One of the best family restaurants that I've been too quality food.Excellent service and the nicest nicest people.“

“From the moment I arrived at La Bamba Mexican Spanish Restaurant Margate the experience was pleasant. The staff greeted us with a friendly smile and the service stayed attentive throughout the meal. The atmosphere was lively but relaxed, perfect for a casual dinner. The food was exactly what you expect from great Mexican food – fresh guacamole, tasty tacos that could easily be found when searching “tacos near me”, and generous portions of shrimp fajitas that left us satisfied without breaking the bank. Prices felt fair and the overall value was impressive, especially when pairing a couple of margaritas from the “margaritas near me” selection. I left feeling happy with the tasty meals, warm service, and cozy vibe – a solid choice for anyone craving Mexican grill and Spanish food in the area.“

“From the moment we walked in, everything felt fresh, clean, and welcoming. The food was absolutely outstanding — every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh, and the presentation was just as impressive as the flavor. You can tell there's real care put into the quality and preparation.

What really made the experience unforgettable, though, was the service. Fernando went above and beyond from start to finish. He was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. It's rare to find someone who genuinely cares that each guest has a great experience — and Fernando absolutely delivered that.

Highly recommend to anyone who values great food and even better service. We'll definitely be back!“

“Great south florida local restaurant! The guacamole is amazingly fresh.“

“Delicioso! Very tasty and generous portions were served in an attractive manner. It was difficult picking out my fave because there are so many goodies to choose from. Service was prompt and thorough, and Torero's has a nice ambience within. My favorite local dining experience.“

“Wow!!! We just finished family Sunday enjoying our lunch at tacos el papi. The birria tacos were delish!!! My son had the el pastor, his favorite and my husband had the cheek and stomach tacos which he thoroughly enjoyed!!! The restaurant is super clean!!! Looking forward to coming back!!!“

“I had a party of three and I was the first person getting there to get the table, and the host or the person welcome the customers Told me I have to wait till all the people sitting with me get there before she give me the table; and I was standing there waiting, I told her they will be there in five minutes and she refused to give me the table, but, when another customer in same
Situation was welcome and getting the table
Before me; it make me feel very very uncomfortable and upset . How can she discriminate people just because? She should get fired immediately. And also I tried to call a waitress and He ignored me; they discriminate latinos and black people.“

“The food here is by far some of the best I’ve had. There is NOTHING on the menu that isn’t absolutely delicious. We’ve never actually been in the restaurant (just Door Dash) but I’m sure the staff are just as awesome (I’m a server…of course I’m gonna say that 🤣). Seriously though, we’ve had the tacos, burritos, enchiladas, chimichangas, skirt steak, stir fry, fajitas, spinach dip, rice and beans, and guacamole. Everything is DELICIOUS!!!! If you think otherwise, you should have your head examined. 🤣. Now I know what I want for dinner tonight!!!!!“

“Lo súper recomiendo,la comida estuvo 🤤rica y el servicio 💯“

“This was my first time here, found by Google search, but I'm so glad I came. I usually don't touch refried beans, but they're great here and the fresh salsa is to die for. The atmosphere is very welcoming. I highly recommend here 👌“

“Worst Service Ever! Read the Fine Print.. When I was informed that My "Happy Hour" margaritas were suddenly Double Priced because I didn't order any entrees.. Marie the MOD who claimed to be an Owner/ Family member told us "is this your first time here?" stating I had been here several times. Marie then replied "Then you should know The rules" and began to berate the poor waitress right there at the table about not informing us of this rules! I was not only so embarrassed for the poor waitress but embarrassed for Miss Marie who claims to be an owner! I've been in the hospitality industry for years and have never in my life seen such behavior by a well known establishment. I paid my check and tipped the poor waitress well. after leaving I then went back and apologized again to the poor waitress for her manager/owners behavior. if corporate reads this, there's a coaching opportunity for Miss Marie. she should not be in management. to stand at a customers table in the middle of a crowded dining room and argue insisting that the customers are wrong and should know the rules is unacceptable! I don't mind playing by the rules but I need to know what they are first. I have visited La Bamba on several occasions over my years in Fort Lauderdale. that will end immediately!! I will never again visit or recommend La Bamba to anyone. consumer Beware $50.00 for 4 6oz well Margaritas is a crime within itself. you have several locations and have been successful maybe it's time you check yourself and remember where you came from. sincerely disgusted by La Bamba and it's supposed owner!“

“Great amazing place to eat, drink, watch something etc. Went around two weeks ago randomly looking for a place to eat with my girlfriend and I asked them if they would put UFC 311 and they said yes. We called two days before to reserve two tables in front of the tv, they did it and we went with 5 more friends, we all had a great freaking night! We got drunk af🤣 ate half the menu and enjoyed the fight! At the end of the night we ordered a round of shots and the manager was kind enough to send another round on the house. Great place overall and it’s new so I recommend y’all go before it starts getting really packed every weekend!“

“love this place, the staff are all wonderful. food is to die for, ofcourse the margaritas 🍹 😋 are the best. highly recommend this place.“

“Well the chicken is marinated and something fantastic my other half he likes the chicken quesadilla(BRS)chips and salsa always on deck ready to go fresh with cold salsa warm chips steak very juicy topped with onions on it. You can ask for if like I ask for extra also clean.“
