The bartender at Margaritaville recommended this place. So glad we went, it was AWESOME!! I got the iron skillet blackened shrimp, OMG it was amazing. I was dipping those huge fries in the butter sauce. My husband got the mahi tacos and he loved them. If you go to south padre this is a must!! So good!

Mahi Nic is a great little outdoor restaurant in a marina south of the bridge. We had the 3/4 lb burger and it was fantastic, one of the best we have ever had. It is not cheap, but well worth the price and enough to share with your date. Comes with thick cut potatoes akin to steak fries. The service was friendly and the food came quickly. A must do place to eat when in SPI.

This place is so great. There’s an older lady who works here…not sure her name but she is the sweetest last I’ve ever met. Service is great, food is amazing and so fresh and it’s right on the ocean so the atmosphere couldn’t get any better. Plenty of seating too. Cashier is also super fast at cutting the line quick. 10/10 would recommend.

Food was great. the service was great. They are dog friendly brought water and a treat. The owner worked the register and my dog loved him. I had the shrimp skillet garlic shrimp, and it was excellent. The frys are huge crinkle cuts. My wife had wings they were great also. Oh ya, and we had margaritas they make them with wine tastes exactly the same as ones with tequila. The wait staff brought the food, the dog dish with water, and a treat. We tipped accordingly. Thanks again all the way from North Dakota.Dietary restrictions: We are carnivore so wings and shrimp were perfect.Parking: Lots of spots we ate at 5pm the were a few open.Kid-friendliness: Dog friendly since our dog is our kid.
Great place! We brought our dog along and they surprised us with a water bowl and treat for our visit. Owner gave a great first impression. Servers were very courteous. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing time outside with great food! They make their margaritas with wine and you really cannot tell the difference! Loved this place!
Mahi Nic IS just a great as all the reviews say!!! And more!! The staff were so friendly and over the top hospitable. When you walk inside Mahi Nic, there is an order station (in case you get confused on how it works). The order board lists amazing food items and drinks.We ordered the Mahi tacos with double fries no slaw, the elote corn, and Chief Burger with sweet tea. The fries were huge and fresh. Our Mahi taco tasted THE BEST I’ve ever had, especially with lime squeezed on top, FANTASTIC! The chief burger was delicious as was the Elote corn. I have no complaints in any way.This is definitely the place to try :D

Their mahi burger is the best fish burger on the island. It may be the best fish burger I've had anywhere. It's not a ground fish patty, it's a 1/2 pound mahi fillet that's prepared perfectly. It's juicy and flaky, not overcooked or hard. Their fries are gigantic crinkle cut and very good for the island. You have to eat here.

Food was great. Loved eating by the dock. Food we got looked exactly like it was pictured. Highly recommend
My husband and I are staying at the KOA and needed a quick easy dinner since we just got here and this place did not disappoint. Their fries are fresh and to die for. I got the shrimp tacos which were amazing and my husband enjoyed the Mahi nachos but they were not my cup of tea. I also got the Pina colada which was amazing and my husband got a mango daiquiri which was good.

Fries are massive! Chief Burger was fantastic. Patty is moist, bun is light. Mahi tacos are flavorful. Comes with a chipotle mayo sauce and tomatillo sauce. Coleslaw is refreshing but flavor is flat.
