Jimmy Hula's Winter Park

I love it here. The food and atmosphere is great! My daughter just asked if we could come here again when she visits from out of state. The black bean burger is my favorite!!

We have loved Jimmy Hulas for years but I don’t know what is up with service lately but it’s put a bitter taste in my mouth and I don’t think I will be coming back.

I had to wait 40 minutes for my cup of fries. My husband’s fries came out with his meal. I saw many other people get their fries who came in way after us. We had to remind them about my and my daughter’s fries and they brought out only one so I gave it to my daughter as she ordered the same fries. I then had to wait another 20 minutes for mine to show up, long after everyone had already been done eating. I flagged down who appeared to be a manager and let her know I had been waiting 40 minutes for my fries. Luckily she brought it out in two minutes. If this was a one off thing then I wouldn’t be reporting this.. but it’s happened multiple times. I literally go here for the mojo fries so when they frequently forget to bring them .. what’s the point in going?

Walked into Jimmy Hula’s and thought we entered a Cali surf shop (we were so entertained by all the decor).
We were immediately greeted by the cheerful and helpful staff. Jonathan took our orders with radiant positivity, cheerfulness, and superb customer service that made our day.
My mom and I both had the Aloja Burger with different fries (mojo & voodoo). Both were fantastic and perfectly cooked. Jonathan made sure we had everything we needed and even gave us unprompted to-go drinks.

We will be coming back 10/10. Prices were also completely reasonable

I absolutely love this place! The customer service is outstanding, the food is always amazing, and the ambiance couldn’t be better. On my most recent visit, I was greeted by one of the kindest employees—a young man who was incredibly helpful in explaining the menu, attentive throughout my meal, and genuinely friendly. He made the entire experience wonderful.

I always order the Kingston tacos, and they never disappoint—consistently fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The restaurant itself has a relaxed beach-inspired aesthetic with plenty of comfortable seating options. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy great food and great vibes.

Whenever I'm visiting Orlando, this a place I must visit! Always great food and service.

Great food!!!! we had a great time with trivia!

I don’t often write reviews based on negative experiences—people make mistakes, and I believe in offering grace and moving on. But this situation was different. It was deeply upsetting, and in the moment, I genuinely couldn’t hold back tears.” I went to Jimmy Hula's, at 8:22 PM, Altamonte Springs, FL location, just hoping to enjoy a nice dinner. I ordered the BBQ Summer Bowl and Cajun pickles. I have a severe allergy to avocados, which I clearly told the cashier when placing my order. When my food came out, it had avocados on it. I kindly let the waitress know and explained again that I’m highly allergic, and asked if the bowl could be remade. While waiting, I witnessed the cook in the kitchen simply remove the avocados from the existing bowl rather than preparing a new one. What made it worse was watching him smirk at the waitress—as if to say, “I’m not remaking that”—and then hand it back to her. The waitress turned to see if I was watching and still started walking the bowl toward me. Trying not to break down, I calmly went to the front counter and requested a refund. The young woman, who identified herself as the manager, apologized and processed the refund. I asked to speak with the GM, Ty, but she told me he had already left for the evening. This situation was not just upsetting—it was dangerous. I explained my allergy twice, and they still tried to serve me food that had been contaminated. This isn’t just about food—it’s about safety and respect. Food allergies can be fatal. Food allergies are not a preference—they are a medical reality. The fact that the cook showed such disregard for that is terrifying. It takes nothing to show basic human decency and just make a new bowl. Instead, I left hurt, shocked, and extremely disappointed. What hurts even more is that I’ve supported Jimmy Hula’s for years and recommended it to others. But now, knowing that even when I speak up about my allergy, my safety can be completely ignored—that’s heartbreaking. This absolutely needs to be addressed by leadership. Please take this seriously. Someone’s life could be at risk if this ever happens again.

bring back the coco loco tacos!!!! permanently!!! hands down best tacos

Jacksonville, FL Oakleaf village location is a mess…not a table that doesn’t wobble, or trash can that isn’t full. Worst part is the bartender, took me 20 min to get my first draft beer cause she was busy making two cocktails…at the speed of a DMV employee. Tried to get a second beer but gave up when she went into a back office and never came back out. This place could be so great…right location but falls flat…want to sell it?

I was in Florida for a short break, and was around the Winter Park area. I asked a local tour guide while kayaking whether there was anywhere good locally to get tacos. He immediately noted Jimmy Hulas. I'm very glad he did. Man, these are the best tacos I have had - not just in the area, or Florida or the States. I mean anywhere! Easily found, loads of parking and nicely accessible - I grabbed the menu and got to the counter. The staff couldn't have been friendlier - suggesting what would go well, a little chat and all good. They have Pibb on tap, which is always a treat - then the tacos arrived in no time. Wow - not only were they delicious but the quality of the ingredients was high. Absolutely devoured these! On the last day of my holiday, I was looking for somewhere to grab a quick lunch, and this place was so good, I had to go back. And it didn't disappoint!
