I would stay away from the steak. It is not good quality. I now just stay with seafood. Had steak with what was a carry out 14" sub, but not quite, cheese was missing also. Second steak was with a guest I took and she got chicken and steak Fajita's. read more

Food was good, ambiance was ok, service was GREAT but LONG wait to get seated. Many tables ready to be cleaned but people stayed visiting (which is fine, since that is a good reason to go out for dinner with family and friends) but overall it was pretty good. We will be back in the off-season read more

I was lucky to find a new Mexican restaurant on Venice Island. There aren't many options like this around, and Cabo Breeze definitely fills the southern tip of Baja vibe gap that we have here. But rather than traveling to Mexico, it's located in a convenient strip mall right in the center of the island, it's easy to find with plenty of free off-street parking. We arrived early, at 4:45 on a Saturday evening, and the place was already packed. I think we grabbed the last available table, which tells me word about this place has already gotten out. Our server was friendly, prompt, and attentive. She immediately brought out a basket of warm chips with salsa. Then she surprised us with three additional, hotter versions of their house-made salsa. Everything tasted fresh and vibrant. Since this was my first visit, I decided to start with a simple meal and ordered the shredded beef enchiladas topped with cheese and tomatillo sauce. The plate came with generous portions of rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made from scratch. Cabo Breeze has a great dinner menu with plenty to choose from, so I'm already looking forward to returning to try something new. You'll find this restaurant is a welcome addition to Venice Island's dining scene. Enjoy! read more

Carne Asada needed a little more salt but it was cooked perfect. Chicken Fajita was awesome. they asked about what i would like to keep in it and i was able to remove peppers minus just a couple i asked for. Waitress was very nice and attentive. all tables were being utilized so that alone should show that the place is pretty good. read more

This is an upscale Mexican restaurant in Venice, Florida. It used to be the old Chuck and Ale. It's decorated very nicely inside with a Mexican flare and outside. They have a little cabana where you can bring your dog. The service has always been great. We can't get away from all of the seafood Mexican options. All in the tamales are fantastic as well my wife loves the seafood tacos the ceviche and I can't pronounce it but it's shrimp in a red or green sauce. It's delicious. The bean and cheese dip will feed six people. It's huge. We've been there at least six or seven times now it's definitely on my list of go to. read more

Our waitress, Iris, was so kind and accommodating. Our party went from 4 people to 6, and she immediately cleared our table and moved us to a new table. The margarita Italiano was divine and so were all the other drinks the table got. The flautas were delicious. Will definitely be coming back the next time I'm in Venice. read more

Food here was decent. Street corn was awesome but the chicken mole was average at best. Service here was outstanding though by all. Nice tiki vibes in the restaurant with outdoor seating. Not a bad place but next time will get the fajitas which looked amazing read more

Loved this place and great to see something at this premise that people are loving. It was PACKED and they opened 2 months ago. Their margs and foods and very good, and you for the amount you get, it's definitely worth it. The portions are HUGE. Overall we will be back often, I'm excited. They have a cabana area where a band could play and hopefully in the foreseeable future, they will have some bands here. read more

Consistently tasty casual Mexican fare, with friendly staff. Chicken, carne, and pastor tacos as well as their black beans have the best flavor out of any of the larger Mexican restaurants in the area. Nothing fancy, just good food and reasonable prices. Keep up the great job! read more

They just had a grand opening and we got a coupon in the mail. We decided to give it a try. So, we arrived, but forgot the coupon. We were greeted and placed on wait list with an approximate 20 minute wait. We ended up getting 2 seats at the bar and ordered our meals and our drinks. I had a three chicken burrito and the wife had a taco salad. The food was normal tasting with prices ranging ($18-24) and certainly plentiful. The drinks were normal tasting, but drink prices were sky high. We were charged $26 for a double whiskey ($2 of which was listed as extra ice), weird. Our phone finally rang and they had a table for us, it had been over 50 minutes on that wait list. Good thing we sat at the bar. Our final bill was over $75 for 2 meals and 2 drinks (1 each). The place was packed, the food was flowing, the staff were trying to keep up. But, unfortunately our server got no tip tonight. And normally we are generous. We most likely will not return to this establishment. There are other Mexican restaurants that are spot on and worth visiting. read more

Looking for good Mexican food and drink? With a great value for the price? This could be the place for you. Our server was friendly and attentive. As small venue that is low key with some Mexican touches. Outdoor patio is available. You won't come home hungry! read more

Second time there. First for hubby who dies for a good plan ole ground beef taco. He wasn't disappointed. Chose 2 hard corn and 1 soft corn for his shells. Got all the "fixings". He first made a meal out of the fresh tortilla chips and salsa that are complimentary. Thank you. We each had the house margaritas standard and good. I ordered the vegetable fajitas. I made two more meals out of the left overs. Bonus, it includes their fresh guacamole, sour cream fresh diced tomatoes/onion. Along with rice and beans. Very good flavor. Did not need any protein. Service was very good, we were there after the lunch crowd. I know it gets busy so plan accordingly. read more

Cabo Breeze - Veggie fajitas with all the toppings. Very fresh. - Mexican Near Me - Venice, Florida

Tried Cabo Breeze for the first time and loved it. It was busy, but not crowded. Our server Alli was very attentive and super sweet. The food was fantastic. I had a chorizo taco and a beef burrito. The chorizo taco was so good and the burrito was good as well. The red sauce is a little on the sweet side but that was quickly remedied with their scratch made hot sauces. Very good and hot! (Took them home to try on everything). My husband had the quesabirria tacos and they were amazing. The white rice was shockingly good. Tons of flavor. Actually finished it, unlike other Mexican places where it stays on the plate. Drinks were reasonable and also good. We will definitely go back to try more of the menu. read more

Great food, comfortable atmosphere, clean bathrooms, good service... We'll be back! The only unpleasant taste in our mouths were the tip options. They were 20%, 25% and 30% . The gall. I would have left more if you hadn't asked for so much. Next time I may not be as generous as I was unless the server literally earns it. (After we paid and tipped more than fair, we sat at least 30 minutes with empty water glasses and without a follow-up.) If you are not absolutely thrilled with the service, ask them where the custom amount is where you can put in the good old 15%. Dear Manager, while we sat 30 min after lunch with empty water, no offer for cocktail or desserts afterall, staff who want 30% tip were happily chatting at the bar, oblivious to being on the clock. read more

I've been waiting for this place to open for a while. When I found out they were open it took me a day before getting in there for dinner. I was a little surprised to see how busy they were considering they had just opened three days ago. However, parking was a "Cabo Breeze" despite the crowd. We were seated quickly and our server came within a minute or two to greet us and take our drink orders. Neither of us had cocktails, but their drink menu was huge. We ended up ordering the veggie fajitas and Carnitas dinner. This was some of the best Mexican food I have had anywhere , and I relocated from Chicago! Looking around at some of the other tables there are so many amazing looking items to try. The ceviche is even served in a pineapple, what a beautiful presentation more akin to a 5 star resort than Venice. I think I know where Fridays Happy Hour is going to be.... read more

3 to 3.5 since it has a cute porch. Skinny margaritas taste like sweet kids juice, not at all like the description in the menu or from the server. Weak. Husband chicken quesadilla dry and lonely on the plate. No sides or sauce or even a topping of lettuce. Taco salad wet lettuce with frozen veggies on top. But that's on me - I should know better than to try and get a fresh salad in Venice. Gotta love when salad dressing comes in Ken's containers - perfect for the beach, but weird in a restaurant. And I agree with everyone here that there is a strange fish taste and smell to everything. Still, the off duty staff (apparently off duty) seemed to be having a good time at the outside bar. read more

here from out of town and wanted somewhere my pup could go, the vibes here were amazing! all waitresses were willing to help if they thought you needed something, our waitress made sure to ask if my pup needed water while taking our drink order and brought his out with ours. the food was great and over all no complaints! will be coming back every time i'm in town. read more

I've experienced three different restaurants at this location over the past number of years. Cabo Breeze was by far the best !! Lots of food options and a variety of drinks. Service was good and efficient. Everything was excellent; large portions and lots of flavors. The jalapeño peppers were a perfect starter and I enjoyed my steak/chicken fajita. So much food to take home. A winner and I'm sure to go back!' read more

A group of us went to Cabo breeze for dinner Saturday night. There were seven of us, so we were a fairly large group. The outdoor area of the restaurant is cozy and comfortable. The indoors was nice, but the lighting was a bit too bright. We were seated right away and our waitress was friendly and attentive. Our food came out piping hot and the order was absolutely correct. The food was very good. I had a Donn burrito which was fantastic. The portions are huge! We had a very good experience. read more

Great location, usually in with little wait. Amazing authentic food, reasonably priced, and great bartender in Kris.

We are locals and ate here twice in one week! The food is that good! And the Margaritas are superb too! The service was awesome. It's a family owned and operated establishment. The lighting is a little harsh for my taste but this is not a deal breaker. They just opened about a month ago. Not a lot of atmosphere, but the food makes up for that. So happy to have a good Mexican restaurant on the Island! read more

Arrived at 5:00 and were seated immediately. By 5:30, the placed was packed . We split a Cabo fajitas and couldn't finish it, took enough home for another meal. We had 2 excellent pours of Merlot wine for $4 each because it was happy hour. The server was fantastic and checked with us several times. We will definitely return. read more

Delicious food, great service, nice ambiance. I had enchiladas with homemade tortillas- best on and around the island!

Well - first thing management should do is- hire a good , dedicated , bartender . If you're going to offer , say 9 or so different margaritas then have the person making them know what they're actually doing . If we're spending like $32 bucks for a couple drinks maybe they could be done right . There's that . The place isn't huge and fills up like a fishbowl full of hungry piranhas . There was obviously a need for something different in this part of town - it's been oh about five years since we were told at Mi Pueblo it was a two hour wait for some tacos . The fajitas were done right here . Nice mix of veggies and assorted sides and mains . Decent guacamole- not terrific just well - decent . Service was good - servers and everyone actually is on their toes . If weather allows the outside patio is a nice spot -we were there on a coolish night and only a couple people braved the exterior side of the bar . Good draft beer options and desserts . Get some dedicated drinks mixers and this place really fills a void . read more

Food was good and waitress was excellent. I would definitely recommend this restaurant

Really good food with tons of options on the menu there's so much to choose from. Everything we tried was delicious. The bar drinks were also really good and well made. Definitely a spot worth going back to! read more

Great food at a fair price. Carnitas are the best I have had since leaving the west. Choriqueso is great, a good blend of chorizo, onions, and queso. Salsa is chunky with fresh ingredients. Highly recommended for a more Western style Mexican food. read more

Great food and the service was great! Unusual menu for a Mexican Restaurant but enjoyed. Will be going back!

So happy a great Mexican restaurant is on the island. Four of us went last night -- great food/drinks, service, and ambiance. We will be back ... soon! read more
