“ Best happy hour in the Grove, hands down. The steak Philly and fajitas are so good as recommended by the bartender. Been here on game day and its packed! Gaby and Zuly did a great job. Also, try out the Joey wings ”
“ If you're a fan of mahi fish tacos, this spot is an absolute must-visit! I've been indulging in their tacos since 2006, and they are the sole reason I ever find myself there. While the menu boasts a variety of delicious items, it's the mahi fish tacos that keep me coming back. Having lived in Miami and traveled to various states and countries, I've made it a point to visit this place whenever I can. Whether it's ordering 3-6 tacos with fries and savoring every bite outside or making a special trip, these tacos never disappoint. A memorable moment was during my pregnancy in 2018. I drove my Lexus from Maryland to Coconut Grove just to satisfy an intense craving for these tacos. I called ahead to ensure they’d be open and have my order ready, and though it felt a bit crazy at the time, leaving there so happy and full was worth every mile! Even though I thought they might have closed permanently during and after COVID, I was thrilled to return in December 2021 and find them open. I can't wait for my next I hope it's around forever so that I can take my grandchildren one day when I am old! ”
“ Popped in for some lunch so visited at a quiet time. Large choice of beers on the menu and it was Taco Tuesday so had a threesome of tacos which were all great and amazing value ($2.50 each) so splashed out on a portion of fries...and there was a lot of fries. Friendly service, imagine this place is fun later on in the evening so will be back to find out ”
“ Sarah was the best server I've ever had! There was a confusion in our bill's party and she was so kind to divide the bill even though there was a mixed up situation. She was so kind and accommodating. ”
“ Foods ok, service ok, good restaurant choice if you’re a middle class person like myself. Everything else in the area seems like it’s pretty expensive like 30+ a meal, but this place is reasonable sports bar. I had the wings Joey style. They’re pretty decent. I would order them again. Service is kind of iffy. Happy hour is pretty good. I think it runs till seven and I think it’s 50% off draft beers. Met a couple of regular characters at the bar who were very entertaining. ”
