The atmosphere is dark and sexy inside. It's dimly lit and sets the mood. There is patio seating if you prefer that. The service is their downfall. There is an automatic 20% gratuity added regardless of service. It def hinders the experience imo. Why provide excellent service when you know you are getting a good tip anyway?? Overall, mid service is worth it for the delicious tacos.

Their tacos are not bad but for street tacos they are pricey even during happy hour. They charge a standard 18% gratuity. They might as well charge that fee into the food price because it is mandatory but most likely they separate the line item to avoid additional sales tax on revenue. The place is dark and dingy for a highly rated place. After this first day experience in south beach im avoiding any of the other popular tourist restaurants for the rest of my stay. Stick with other non traditional places along Collins and Washington and you should be fine.

Service was a bit slow, but it was happening tonight and I was on beach time. Favorite tacos were probably the bbq mushroom one and Al pastor. I got the Avocado upgrade, which id pass on next time. It was more of a sauce and didn't have a wow factor for me. Enjoy!

Very nice staff... Coti was awesome! I wish I could transplant her and this place back to New Jersey! She was super nice, attentive, and giving. There was no one really inside (Super Bowl was on)... but, I can imagine the regulars that come back when they find out how good the service, food, and drinks are. I can taste my coconut margarita now. It was perfectly balanced and delicious. You can tell there was actual cream of coconut in it. I ordered and tasted the following: guacamole (perfect), tuna tostada (never really see that on a Mexican menu... but it absolutely worked!), shrimp nachos (really good with the perfect amount of toppings)... everyone else really enjoyed their food, all plates were clean. We left full and happy.

This is a small restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. When we visited, it was raining, so the patio wasn't available, but we were seated quickly indoors. Our table was right by the door, and cold air kept coming in, so we asked to switch tables. The server was very kind and accommodated our request. I ordered the al pastor tacos. The tortillas were cold, and the al pastor filling was a bit dry and lacked flavors, though overall it was just okay. We also ordered chicken fajitas, which I enjoyed much more than the tacos. The service was decent overall.

We got the smothered burrito, steak tacos and cheese enchilada. My friends especially loved my smothered burrito. They even offered theee types of sauces: spicy mayo, and a green and red sauce.

Paying for Chips in any MEXICAN Restaurant Should be a crime. Paying $11.00 is Insane. I get it but don't like it. Just needed to be said. Only One word describes the food "BLAND" VERY BLAND... I've never eaten at a Mexican Restaurant where I had to Use salt to get ANY flavor. Unfortunately that was the case with my Smothered Chicken Burrito. I was so disappointed. My Husband had the Beef Tacos. I sampled the Beef and it was Good. Overall It's OK.

They do offer a premade mix of margaritas on the happy hour menu, but for 5.00 more you can have a delicious fresh one made. Definitely enter the blue door to the back and enter the speakeasy, it's dark, loud, and turns into a nightclub after 11pm. There is a great lounge and a pool table for some fun. Our tacos were great, churros are delicious served with your choice of sauce and our bartender was fun, friendly and made the best drinks! Parking is tough, limited on the street so ride share is best as there is a lot of construction going on in the area. We highly recommend Bodega for a fun night filled with tacos and drinks! Cheers!

Upon arrival I was a little unsure of the set up because I looked it up online, but when I walked in, I only saw the ordering station. Upon further inspection and walking up to the window, I found out there was a side entrance. When you walk in you were taken into a completely different vibe and experience. I was thankful the bar had TV's so we had something to watch. Overall, the food was good and had good flavor, but the drinks weren't the best and the bartender did have a slight attitude. We were the only people in the restaurant, so you think they would be more attentive and friendly.

Taquiza is nothing short of spectacular when it comes to their authentic blue corn tortillas. Coming from a hospitality family, Tyrese who was on his first day of training made sure our table and every guest interaction with tables around were satisfied and full. Asking about recommendations, he was able to explain the flavor palates provided with tacos and drinks. Though $5 a piece for tacos, seems a little steep this is like a reasonable Miami price considering others are about $8 for one in other places. We tried the crispy fish, al pastor, carnitas and Arrecha tacos. They were spectacular, and the guacamole with totopos thick crispy but fluffy blue corn chips. We even ordered a dozen blue corn tortillas to take home for $9. I think this is amazing price considering their authenticity. We even had their horchata and I loved it bringing me back to my childhood days. Give Taquiza a try, though some reviews here are not 5 star satisfied, I promise you won't be disappointed trying this place out at least one it twice whether you're a tourist or a regular. They are also pet friendly! A big win for the Beach community!

We sat outside and it was a beautiful day, which definitely made the experience better. That said, it's not beachfront, and there's construction going on right where the outdoor seating faces. Finding the restaurant was honestly a bit of a mission because we had to go around all of that. We did get seated right away, which was great. From what I could tell, there was only one server handling everything, so she was clearly busy and service was a bit slow. Food wise, it was really good. The carne asada tacos were flavorful and well done, and the guac stood out too. Their chips are house made and thicker than usual, which is different but still good. Overall, I'd come back. Good food, nice vibe, just be prepared for a slower service depending on how busy it is.
