Our server was the only one there and honestly, she was fabulous. The bang bang shrink was delicious. The sauce was not spicy at all so it didn't hurt to eat my meal. Also, the fries and onion rings were fried to perfection. Not pictured is the spinach and artichoke dip with crostinis and chips. They were gone before I could remember to take the picture lol.

I've been 4 times and every time was great. I love the fajitas. Servis is fast and with a smile.read more

As someone who travels to Mexico frequently, I can honestly say this is some of the most authentic…read moreMexican food I've found in Florida. Every bite was packed with incredible flavor, and the dishes tasted like they came straight from a family kitchen in Mexico. Jose was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, attentive, and made our entire experience even more enjoyable with his excellent service and great recommendations. The atmosphere is just as impressive as the food. The beautiful, authentic Mexican décor makes you feel like you've stepped into a charming restaurant in Mexico, and the bar is absolutely stunning--one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. It's the perfect place to relax with an amazing margarita or tequila while soaking in the ambiance. If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, outstanding service, and an unforgettable dining experience, this is the place. As someone who spends a lot of time in Mexico, I don't hand out compliments like this lightly. This restaurant exceeded my expectations, and I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere here. Service was pretty good. As to be expected in a crazy place like this.

The best…read morething about Swampy's..you can order a drink and go and sit on the wall and put your feet in the beautiful clear water. Oh wow, what a place we live, it's so amazing! If it's during the day, tube floaters, paddle boarders, and small boats pass by making for some fun entertainment. However, the food and service are really lacking but has been for years. And it really doesn't matter...due to the atmosphere, people will continue to come here no matter what! It's literally that great! If you are at the bar ordering a drink due to the fact you will wait for a table, no matter the time of day...Do not get stung by the huge amount of bees that surround the soda station and the right side of the bar. I understand that the bartenders and servers are busy but service and attitudes are to the extreme! I think that businesses forget to tell their employees...people are PAYING to eat here. Most on vacation and don't want an attitude. But again, due to the atmosphere...most people will overlook the attitudes. Anyway, the food is severely lacking. We are locals and have eaten here many a time. Just remember the prices on the menu are not because the food and service are amazing...it's because of the atmosphere. P.s. please stop serving glass to people who are drinking and heading to the water.

Great place for some southern staples. We were a party of 6 and we couldn't resist ordering fried…read morechicken and catfish. Fried chicken was really tasty with a perfect crunch and juicy chicken. The fried catfish was breaded with cornmeal, perfectly crispy, also well seasoned and very moist and tender inside. The tartar sauce was homemade and very good but they also have a good peppered vinegar. Between us all we had an opportunity to try a lot of sides. Hush puppies which one of our hush puppy lovers said was the best she ever had (I'm not a fan of these overall so I can't really say). The potato salad was very good, creamy, with just a hint of onion and relish. Baked potatoes and sweet potatoes were enjoyed by all. Loved the crispy okra and green beans. Collard greens were also good. Of course, we couldn't leave without trying the pies. Caramel apple walnut was a little too nutty for me but it was still good. They key lime was my personal fave -- the crust was a good crumbly graham cracker that was definitely home made. We also had a lemon meringue and the chocolate coconut cream pie, which was essentially a half and half with chocolate cream and the bottom and coconut cream on the top. Both had beautiful, moist meringues with nicely toasted tops. On top of good food, we had a great waitress who was super attentive and very patient and friendly. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area and looking for some nostalgic, good southern comfort food.

At the cash register was a big sign that states: "Cash only". There is an ATM machine right by the cashier. Hence, the 4 stars. We ordered our food : beef empanadas, masitas, fish sandwich, Cuban sandwich, steak sandwich and ropa viejo. For drinks, we had iced teas and sodas. They came in huge, heavy glasses - like a tankard! I would say that the portions were large in general. Everyone loved their food. I enjoyed the ropa Viejo -it was very flavorful. The beef was tender and tasted very good. Our servers were friendly and efficient. They refilled our glasses constantly Will definitely come back here if we are back in the area. Just have to remember to bring cash!!

Started with the gator bite that was meaty and not gamey, one of the best tasting gators I've had in Florida. We then tried the frog legs and fish tacos, both were portioned generously with lots of meat. The live music added a nice touch to the vibe of a dockside experience on a Saturday night. Don't expect anything fancy, you may be sharing your meal with a few harmless spiders on the ceiling but they are there to catch the bugs. Wait staff were super friendly and quick to serve. If you are traveling through or in town for rainbow river excursions, I recommend the spot!

The decor and atmosphere just felt dated and drank. The atmosphere was extremely hot and humid. By all means, if that is what they were going for then they did succeed. But it all comes down to food. It was just okay. Nothing exceptional or even good. I felt it was just okay. The menu truly made no sense. It's supposed to be a pub feel but there is burgers, spaghetti, fajitas and then Indian food. It is all over the place. The Chicken Tikka was not flavored at all like authentic Indian food. The naan came out cold and flavorless. Think thicker flour tortilla . Service wasn't bad. Our waitress Liz was polite and continued to check on us. Our onion rings came out late and because of that were removed from our check. All in all, we won't be back. Even if we were locals this a hard pass.
