    Carnitas tacos meal. -1 star for the measly teaspoon of beans!
    Mary T.

    Love this place!! The food is delicious and the servers are outstanding! The portion size of beans is a joke tho.

    Only reason this spot didn't get a 5/5 in my personal view is little things. Horchata is a staple for a Mexican Restaurant n sadly I feel like it just tasted too fake, not traditional. Tacos were flavorful but VERY VERY skimpy on the portions for $17! Other than that, service was good. Location was phenomenal!

    My husband and I were looking for a Mexican restaurant to eat at. We chased two other places that had better reviews before we ended up here. Let me just say I do not recommend eating here at all. The menus had the print coming off so you couldn't really tell what was being offered. The restaurant was not clean. It was not clear as to how you enter the restaurant to begin with as it appeared it was all outdoor seating. We had to ask to be sure where you come in by. We were seated and handed the menus. They brought us chips and salsa. The chips were very crispy and the salsa had a nice kick. I ordered a steak quesadilla. When they brought me my plate it did not look fresh. The gentleman who brought it out made it appear as if it was hot. Well my rice and beans were cold. Like room temperature. The quesadilla was dripping grease and I could not tell what kind of steak that was but it was greasy. Lots of dough for the quesadilla. I could not eat it. I did not care for that at all. My server was no where to be found as he had to be chased down. And he said he was sorry out of obligation. I did t get charged for my meal as I didn't eat it. I'm glad he did the right thing. My husband said the quesabirria tacos were good. They looked greasy. Very oily. We left a minimal 15% tip but honestly I didnt really have any real service. I wouldn't come back. I was very disappointed and it honestly made it where I do not want to attempt to eat Mexican food for a while.

    Currently at La Catrina! I was a little skeptical at first, but as soon as I opened the door, I could smell all the wonderful Mexican food goodness! I only have chips and dips and a delicious house margarita right now but I'll check back once I get my food. You'll see why I'm doing this review first once you check out the photos

    The huge patio with fun decor made me feel like I was on vacation! The Al Pastor bowl was some of the best Al pastor I've had so far on the coast (will def be returning to try the taco version) - the bowl had the perfect combo of savory char with the sweetness of pineapple. Got the large sangria which was tasty and my husband got a beer pitcher. Our total was $70 for the two of us, but we left very full and satisfied. Portions are large! Would definitely return and bring a group!

    Good Mexican food located on the 520 causeway in Cocoa Beach. Service is quick and polite. It's very casual and pretty clean inside. Great outdoor area.

    Sometimes things happen for a reason and tonight was one of those times. I was really craving Japanese and was disappointed when we arrived and we were rudely told it was going to be a long wait, we left and thank goodness otherwise we never would have stumbled upon this amazing restaurant. The decor is lively and fun from the moment you step onto the outdoor dining area and is carried on indoors. Everyone we encountered was polite and helpful. We took our time reviewing the extensive menu before finally deciding on what to order. Good came out in a reasonable amount of time , not to quick so you knew it was assembled to order. Everything had great flavor and authenticity. I had the 3 color enchiladas and they were amazing. Prices are on par with other local restaurants and serving sizes plentiful. I look forward to returning to this hidden gem!

    We often ask people were to eat locally, and the front desk guy wasn't wrong about this place. It was a short drive from our hotel in Cocoa Beach. They had free parking. It is just off A1A. As soon as you sit down the chips and salsa are at your table. My wife ordered the Chili's Rellenos, and I had the Chili verda burrito. We also ordered a jumbo pineapple margarita. There were fresh chunks of pineapple in it. Reminder don't forget to eat the pineapple after because we forgot and regretted it later...probably was delicious. Both entrees were delicious and we enjoyed them. With everything not including tip is was around $55 dollars for the dinner and the one drink. We loved it, definitely we be back.

    This place was so good! We needed a place open late on a Friday after our flight was delayed and this was perfect. The portions were huge and it was really tasty. The server spoke to us in Spanish but luckily we were well versed enough to order and get what we needed. The price was fair and it seems like there's a ton of space for larger parties. We would consider them again for any meal.

    Arrived around dinner time with my family party of four. We stood in the front waiting area for at…read moreleast five or 10 minutes before someone even spoke to us. Eventually, a man walked by and said he'd be with us shortly. Five minutes later, he returned we asked if we could be seated outside with a smile he said yes. He was pleasant. We waited outside for about 10 minutes until someone came to take our order. I'm not sure if they were shorthanded or what the deal was, but it was a lot of waiting to not be very busy inside, but we were hungry and wanted to try the food so we gave them a chance. Our waitress was nice. My mother ordered a vegetable burrito. My daughter ordered a cheese quesadilla. My cousin ordered a chicken and beef taco and I ordered vegetable quesadilla. We also had rice, black beans, chips, and salsa, queso, and guacamole . The food came out hot. I had no complaints at all on the food. Everything was delicious. The cheese was a little runny, but it didn't matter because it was so good. I will definitely be back to that location. I might try sitting at the bar. It looked pretty inviting from the front door. We all had a great time.

We arrive at 8 pm (not busy at all). Find out they have NO taco Tuesday special...okay moving on. Service was super slow and inattentive (like got more chips but salsa was empty). I got the veggie quesadillas but added beef. Our food arrives 45 minutes later! So at 8:45 I get my quesadilla with no beef and literally no cheese to speak off. (See photo). I basically paid $15 for two tortilla shells with a bunch of pepper and onions. Honestly, I usually compliment restaurants as I know they work hard but this place was ridiculous. Nothing was done to correct the experience and I left paying for all our meals like I'd have scored better at Taco Bell. I will definitely never go back. Too bad for them too as I now live nearby and tend to eat Mexican food often. Or maybe they don't care. Not one thing about the experience felt like they were happy to have customers. I'd have given it a 1 star but we did eat our food as we were literally starving.

The other asked us to wait a moment and left us standing there looking at our takeout. I walked in and looked around and was finally able to wave down the guy who took our order. He was busy waiting on a table. The women had disappeared. As far as quality of food, it was okay. We had cheese enchiladas and also the seafood enchiladas with rice and beans. We also ordered the taco dinner that had 3 beef tacos on it. Those were the best and most flavorful. We were given chips and salsa at no extra charge, so that was a nice surprise. We would eat there again but stick with the tacos in the future.

Simply can't wait to return. The long version says the following: The location is easy to get too, and the inside of the restaurant is visually appealing. Though I do lean towards the beachy, tropical theme of things, this place does it without being kitschy or tacky. Though I expected the inside to have been wholly remodeled since the last restaurant that was a tenant here - it really had not. Instead, they updated the seating, bar, and outside to their taste - which is good, IMHO. I really liked the use of tablets for their menus. This was novel to me as I had never experienced it until I came here. The tablets worked well and even so, you got a feel for how extensive their menu truly is. Food-wise, there were no complaints around the table. I had their pork bowl which not only comes out hot and fresh, but copious - I just couldn't finish it - they piled on the food with what appeared to be wild abandon. My wife had their fajita plate which was massive. That definitely ended up going home with us. Desserts were their flan which had a flavor I had not expected, maybe not to true style, but definitely rich and delicious. No complaints here. Service was not only friendly but patient with us as we had plenty of questions for being our first time here, but it wasn't as attentive as I would have like. I think the waiter was overstretched in tables, but he still did an overall great job with us. In short, the newest Mexican restaurant in the area represents very well, and we are looking forward to our next trip back, hopefully very soon...
