First visit, very enjoyable time. Great atmosphere and the staff seemed very friendly. I hade the pobalano peppers, one Cuban pork the other shredded chicken. Nice size portions and very tasty. I'm not a huge black bean fan, but their's were outstanding. Wife had a burrito which she really liked. The other couples order got messed up so that was disappointing, they were going to fix it but they said no it was OK. Kinda surprised they charge for chips and salsa, maybe that's a southern "thang". But overall very good food prices were in line and I'd stop back if I have the opportunity. read more

Wow. I felt dull coming in and as soon as I took a bite of my food (the loaded yuca with shredded beef for happy hour and the beef empanadas), the flavors brought color back to my brain lol not being dramatic, this food is soooo good. Def coming back when I need a Latin fix! I also asked for their spiciest sauce and it's soooo perfectly spicy and flavorful! 10/10 read more

I really don't understand the poor reviews. We used to live within walking distance of Tios and would come often--usually around lunch or early dinner, because we have young children. Food was always great, by far the BEST margaritas I've ever had, decor enhances the experience and the atmosphere is open and welcoming, and we always enjoyed the outdoor seating. Service could be a little spotty on some visits but never deterred from our experience. And the new chicken flautas are AMAZING! read more

Four adults and two young ones. We all had very good meals, service was excellent. Would definitely visit again.

We went for their brunch on Sunday and enjoyed our meal very much. Our waitress Lilliana was very kind and helpful. It was so beautiful outside so we chose to eat on their patio which was nice but had so much more potential! read more

Food was great and so was service. Valerie and Veronica were amazing - served us right before closing

I've now eaten at Tio's Latin American kitchen numerous times and each time the food has been fantastic. Also, the staff That has serviced me has been very attentive to my needs. Vero, Lilly and Stacy are outstanding employees and very nice people. read more

The only good part of our meal was the service. All their food was bland and had zero flavor!! I ordered 2 tacos..one with Cuban pork (no flavor) and one with ground beef (no flavor) also ordered the appetizer of steak pincho and it had no salt or any kind of seasoning. My husband ordered the dinner carnitas. $20 bucks!!It looked delicious with the pork all crispy but had zero flavor!! The beans..no flavor...the rice no flavor. I so wanted to like the food but couldn't. Won't be back! read more

I really don't understand the last review of the food being fresh! The food is not fresh food. I watched the manager tell me that they were out of mussels; then proceeds to walk over to Kroger and buy it from the frozen section. Then served it to us. Their cleanliness is 0/10! It's disgusting to watch the servers sit at the counter waiting on dishes to be done while on their phones. Phones are the most disgusting thing so for servers to actually have them out and on the floor is a major health issue. (I'm a microbiologist). Additionally, I asked for a straw in the paper..... "I'm sorry we don't have any." I replied "They're right there." The rice is always hard like they scoop out the last bit from pot. I gave this place a couple of tries; but that's my fault. Never again. You'd probably get sick from dining here. read more

No flavor!! The cheese on the triple dip was hard and no flavor! The quac was just avocado and no flavor. I had the tequila lime chicken taco street style! The chicken was super dry to the point it was hard to eat and it said grilled onions and when it came it was fresh white onion. Said there was chili Verda salsa on it there was little to none. Husband had fish and shrimp street style same thing no flavor no grilled onions no salsa. The margarita flight was just okay nothing to write home about!! I've had amazing Mexican food and this was not it. I highly recommend to stay away!! read more

Gave this place a second chance. While it's beautiful inside and out...the food has very little flavor. This is not real Cuban food. I had the poke bowl on plantains. The plantains were hard and cold. No flavor. Had the avocado appetizer...bottled ranch dressing. It was awful. As were the avocados, heavily battered. It's a shame they don't hire chefs because this place could be so good. Will not return. No spices, no spice no good. Bummer. Really wanted it to be good. read more

Went on Sunday at 4:30pm. Extremely noisy beyond normal. Waitress took order and asked a question. My friend repeated what she ordered which was a Chimichanga. The waitress repeated rice and beans. I ordered a Burrito. She received a Fajita. We told the waitress who did nothing! Asked if it was ok, my friend said not what I ordered. In addition My Burrito had no flavor. Chicken as if it was boiled. Like eating cardboard. Bill was ridiculous! Never returning. Only good item was the Margarita. read more

We had an awesome lunch at Tio's in Bluffton today. The food was great and the service even better! Michelle was attentive, friendly and an excellent server! We will definitely be back. read more

Nice open ambiance, attentive and polite service, diverse and fresh menu options. I wanted to try the carnitas but I needed seafood. The salsa roja and pico at the table were fresh and delicious. Chips were ok, could be fried in-house to pick up more of the great salsa and dipping options (and to grab more queso!) I ordered a seafood burrito, it was gigantic and decadently wet with fresh queso and verde salsa layering the massive steamed tortilla holding it all together, yet still protecting its contents from the impending sauce until the last moment. This was definitely a fork-and-knife job. As I dug in, I was presented with perfectly cooked shrimps and scallops with fresh lettuce and pico. The chips turned out to be a better vehicle than the fork, so I switched to nacho mode (which I highly recommend for many other dishes.) Everything was pointing to a great dining find! Until I got to the rice. Now, I know the difference between scorched, burned, and even overcooked rice, and I can choke those down no problem. This was none of these things. It was like weeks-old freezer burned ziploc bag rice microwaved on high at 9:00am and left to sit under the heat lamp. It ruined everything it touched, I have no idea how that batch was allowed to go out. In my opinion that is unforgivable. It cost you 2 easy stars and mildly annoyed me enough to write a yelp review! Please just go next door to Kroger and buy a couple rice cookers or something. I'm rooting for you guys, please just fix this and we can forget this ever happened. ;) read more

Welcome to Bluffton Tio's!!! We stopped into this new restaurant in our area. We decided to sit outside even if it faces the parking lot. (Tio's if you're reading this, put up some faux greenery partitions to block the parking lot) I digressed, Meredith was our server and she was so pleasant. We ordered the ceviche, ahi tuna and avocado. I have a blackened salmon over a salad. Everything was delicious!!! I can't wait to go back!!! We didn't have any drinks, but the ones I saw on other tables looked yummy... AND we saw a plate of nachos go by that were piled high and looked delicious!!! read more

The food was fresh, tasty and filling. The hibiscus margarita was wonderful. Our waitress was so nice and helpful. For vegans they have many items and they are delish as well read more

Went because a friend told me they had margaritas flats... which they apparently had discontinued over night because my friend goes all the time. Anyways, besides that disappointment, we sat a good 15 mins without anyone ever coming to the table, we had to flag down a waiter. AFTER we flagged down a waiter, everything was better. I ordered a margarona (margarita with a Corona), queso, shrimp soft taco. Drinks were great! Food was yummy! Server was friendly and attentive. (I don't think he was the server for our area, but he still did great! I'd go back again! read more

We like Tio's, food is good and fast. But, we will be finding a new place because of the noise level. Music is night club loud and it took us asking twice to get the manager to turn it down. It was so loud our waiter had to get in our faces to even hear our order. This was not the first time... read more

I had an awesome time at this restaurant on taco Tuesday. The skinny spicy margarita was delicious. And others at our table that had the house or regular margaritas said they were great too. I enjoyed the shrimp and the Cuban taco. The Cuban one was my favorite all the spices and seasonings just blended so well together to make a delicious taco. We also enjoyed the trio appetizer of queso, salsa, and guacamole. It all tasted so fresh and the salsa was delicious. It's a nice medium kind of salsa that I think many people would enjoy Pete. Definitely will go back when I'm in Bluffton again. read more

Their iced refreshers are awesome. Todd, the server/ bartender is phenomenal! The tacos were on point. 2 tacos filled me up! Great job Tio's! read more

Wide selection of Mexican and Latin cuisine. Loved the margaritas and guacamole! Tortilla chips were warm and crispy. Had the enchiladas which were good but not spicy. read more

Do not recommend, food is lacking in flavor and authenticity always very loud, however ambiance is pretty and service is okay.

Catastrophe from start to finish. Poor service. Very loud trivia game. No chips until requested. Very slow kitchen brought wrong food which was cold. Cold pico drowned cold food. Bill wrong even after manager said he would discount. Avoid. read more

We have lived in Bluffton for two years. Tio's is very close to our house. We did not go because of bad reviews. We decided recently to to anyway. We love it there very much. We went there twice in one week. We had great service and even better food. read more
