Gorgeous interior of the restaurant and very friendly/attentive staff! Made a RSVP online but I probably didn't need to (I appreciate the option is there though). $25 house marg pitcher is always on the menu, and it's delish! Not too sweet or watered down! For food we got a comically large burrito and carnitas tacos. My carnitas were a little dry, but the salsa and beans helped. Complimentary chips and salsa before the meal were some of the best chips I've had at a restaurant! Total was $66 before tip! read more

Margarita Island is one of the best Mexican restaurants we've been to. My husband ordered the Burrito Verde, and I had the Steak Mazatlán--both were absolutely delicious and huge. The portions were so generous that we happily took half of each home for tomorrow. Our server, Abril, was wonderful. She made us feel like we were the most important table in the entire restaurant, yet we could clearly see she was giving the same attentive, thoughtful care to many other tables as well. That kind of service really stands out. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back! read more

A great place for a large group. The decor is gorgeous inside! Definitely get the fajitas nachos. Topped with steak chicken and shrimp fajitas as well. It is salty all smothered in pizza. This was the best. read more

Off I-95 near Cocoa Beach. Highly recommend visiting. We were so pleasantly full, we had to pack leftovers. We got there on a Thursday around 4pm. It was not crowded. We were seated quickly. The service was great. Our server was kind and very attentive. The guacamole and the salsa were addictive... probably the reason why we couldn't finish our entrees. My husband was not prepared for the abundance of ground beef in each of his tacos. I enjoyed the San Diego plus the fries were perfectly crispy. Loved the decorations and ambiance of the place. It felt welcoming. read more

Fantastic food, and all the employees were very friendly. Our server Heidi was very prompt, friendly and attentive. We hope to go back for their happy hour. The first thing I noticed when I went in, was the pretty pink tree. It is pretty and made me feel like I was on vacation. Highly recommend trying this place out. All the food ordered was delicious. The tamales were moist and even taste good the next day! Cant wait to go back. read more

The wait was long, the food was below average, no salt or seasoning in my taco salad, the nachos were not tasty at all either. Their refried beans weren't even cooked properly and didn't have any seasoning or taste. They were half boiled beans. The margaritas were watered down and had a lot of sour mix. read more

Pricey Mexican. My husband liked the chicken bowl. I always get the molcajete when it's on the menu. That was a huge portion and could be shared. But they only give you three taco sized tortillas and charged for more. I thought was was pretty chintzy when you spend $35 for a meal. The margarita was good. Got the small FL sunrise one. A little sweet but good. Had some alcohol. Son didn't like his chicken tenders, didn't want to bring them home and my daughter didn't like the birria tacos which is a dish she usually orders at other Mexican places. The decor was nicely done and a fun atmosphere. I was never at the restaurant that was here before so I don't know if it's new or not. Looking forward to comparing with Tesero and seeing which is better. read more

The service last night was horrible!!! After we were seated, a busgirl came w/ chips and dropped entire bowl of salsa on floor. It splashed all over my white dress, both my husband's shoes + jeans & my shoes. She quickly cleans only a small spot on floor but not the rest of area and silently left. NO APOLOGY!! Five minutes later, our waiter (fresh out of college) is smiling and asking for our drink order. I explained to him, the floor under table is still covered in sauce and my skirt and husband shoes are dirty, my legs are wet too. He moves a foot away from the mess and says, "Oh sorry so what do you want to drink?" 5 minutes later he drops off our drinks and NO NAPKINS. Is it not implied that we need him to help us with some way to clean ourselves off? I then have to ask him explicitly, Please get us napkins!! The stains are now marinating in our clothes and some sense of urgency is needed! After our food and entree arrived, (brought by someone else) our waiter is nowhere to be found. Both of us have no silverware, no forks or knives, and our food getting cold as my husband flags him down. He gives us silverware and he is still avoiding the spot near our table because the ENTIRE TIME NO ONE BOTHERS TO CLEAN THE MESS ON FLOOR. After he hands our check and electronic payment system, he stands there watching me intently as I'm entering the tip. Do you think he earned his tip at this disastrous meal? Where the hell did you hire these unskilled people with no customer skills? Avoid at all costs! There are plenty of other Mexican restaurants in Viera to support. read more

We had a very disappointing experience here. My grandmother has had stomach surgery and physically cannot eat a full adult portion, so she tried to order a kids meal. The staff told us she could order it, but only if we paid an extra $4 -- which felt unnecessary and insensitive given her medical situation. We also had an issue with our son's meal. The server asked if he wanted juice or lemonade with his kids meal, so we said yes, assuming it was included. When the bill came, we were charged $4 for a kids lemonade, which was never explained upfront. On top of that, the food itself was not good and did not justify the pricing or attitude. To make matters worse, it felt like we were being pressured into tipping despite the poor service. A little compassion and transparency would have gone a long way. Instead, we left feeling frustrated and taken advantage of. We won't be returning and would not recommend this place. read more

The quality of the food is good. You can taste the freshness. The service is wonderful. The bartender, Debi, brings the experience to the next level. She makes great drinks and conversation! The atmosphere is light and friendly. It's a very cool vibe. read more

My wife and I were going to lunch and we planed on a Mexican restaurant. When we pulled up. Found out it's a new restaurant. So we gave it a try. The service was unreal. If you want a set down lunch and don't have a lot of time. You got to come here. After we set down the waiter was right there. He took our drink orders and I told him we wanted the guacamole. With in minutes both our drinks and guacamole were right there. We ordered our lunch and again with in minutes our plates were right. The food was awesome. Another couple walked in the same time we did and left the same time. And the funny thing is I didn't fill rushed. And the ambiance was nice. Too the staff thank you. read more

Food is not great, it's very Americanized, little flavor and no spice. The burrito has just specks of meat. We ordered a pitcher of margarita and I think it was mostly marg mix and very little tequila. Probably will not be back. read more

The food is wonderful! We had a burrito, Birria tacos, and the guacamole with chips. The red sauce on the margarita burrito is a thicker tomato's paste sauce and not a traditional red sauce. It was ok. The rest of the burrito was delicious and I would probably just ask them to leave it off next time. Would prefer the traditional sauce. But it was still good. The guac is perfect. Chunky and smooth, fresh avocado, cilantro onion and tomato. Probably my favorite out of everything. The birria was also very delicious. We also had some amazing hot sopapillas for dessert!!! The atmosphere is great and they've done a wonderful job renovating the place. The service was phenomenal! Didn't have to ask for refills, or anything. Super prompt service. Our waitress, Valeria, went over all ingredients in each order to make sure it would be something we'd like. Valeria is amazing! Ask for her each time!!! We sat on the patio and enjoyed the nice breeze, music, and conversation. 10/10 highly recommend!!! read more

Food was really good, waitress was HORRIBLE. Ashlynn was our server and she was not only rude but impatient and just had no customer service whatsoever. We wanted to order my 4 year old daughter a lemonade and her dinner before the adults decided, and she wanted to tell the waitress herself what she wanted and Ashlynn didn't have the time of day. For a four year old? Really?? She said if you're not ready I'm gonna come back while waiting probably 5 seconds for my daughter to order. Was no where in sight the entire time we were there. Waited probably 10 minutes for the bill. Completely ruined our experience unfortunately. read more

Worst Mexican food. Stale chips. Sugary margaritas, probably had little to no alcohol in them. Will not return. read more

Second try. Service was friendly and orders were delivered very quick. So quick I believe the dishes are not made to order. Kitchen assembly is not always the best way. All portions are large and could be shared. They do come with a high price. Half portions could be offered. The Margarita was a good taste,well balanced. The Taco Salad was very good and one of my favorites from Margarita Island. The Chicken Fajita came with many toppings for enjoyment. The only thing missing from this dish is flavor on the chicken. If there was any I could NOT find it. The Chicken was very dry which made me think it was cooked too far in advance(and reheated). Some Paprika, Cumin and Cayenne with a little Lime juice would put this dish over the top. Caramelized onions were great but there was way too many, that it unbalanced this plate. I was told there was Jalapenos but non was found. read more

Probably the worst (most mid) Mexican food I've ever had. The margarita was served in a water glass with a wide band of salt on one side of the glass and none on the other, the margarita itself was watery and almost flavorless, the red sauce bordered on sweet like lousy spaghetti sauce, the chicken was in big chunks instead of being fully shredded, the lettuce was shredded but in long strips... just disappointing. This location used to be El Leoncito and the food then was at least good if not great. read more

Went for lunch and had a great experience. Greeted with smile. Service was on point. Food was delicious. The guacamole appetizer is creamy and to me has a perfect balance of flavors. So happy they added this location. I've never had anything but amazing food at either of their locations. read more

I was so sad Eleoncito (idk how to spell it) was replaced until I tried margarita Island last night. The atmosphere is amazing. The staff was quick and the food was five stars. I got a salad to my husband got a quesadilla burger probably the best burger I've ever had I rated at 10 he rated at eight. We definitely will be going back my favorite Mexican restaurant now. We spent about $40 for two entrées. A little expensive but priced for what you get. Big portions nice quality. read more

Update: I ended up sick after eating here. I was a frequent customer but the last 2 times I've dined here have been a huge disappointment. The food has definitely taken a turn for the worse. The beef tastes old and bland, the chicken is rubbery, the beans are tasteless and the rice is mush. I gave them another chance thinking last time was a fluke. Unfortunately it was just as bad read more

Great service, great food and good ambiance. I read some other reviews and I don't understand because the food was excellent, the margaritas were great as well as great service.

Very pricey. I don't mind paying more for great food but that was not the case. I got the chicken Enchiladas Verdes and my partner got the Carne Asada. I'm pretty sure the chicken was shredded chicken from a can, lacked flavor. The rice was blah and so were the beans. Where is the seasoning? The carne asada is low quality cut of meat. The decor is nice but this restaurant is not any better than Leoncito, the food is bland and more Tex Mex than authentic Mexican. Very disappointed and will never go back. read more

Bring your earplugs! Literally have to scream to have a conversation. Our party of four left after mentioning the music to the manager. We agreed to give it a second try a month later.
