Best Mexican restaurant in Miami by far! The tuna tacos, scallop black aguachile, and swordfish are to die for! Not to mention the churros with dulce de leche ice cream and caramelized apples! Will definitely come back more often. The service and ambiance were also top-notch! Highly recommended.
Absolutely great all around. The ambience is nice and modern, the service is super nice and friendly, and the prices are right in line for this type of restaurant. Full service bar, the food is spectacular. We had the tuna appetizer and the sea bass and tempura fish tacos for entrees and we would have ordered seconds if we could. The caramel cookie for dessert was spectacular! Will come again for sure.
This is one of the latest gems in coconut grove. Amazing menu, decent prices (the lunch menu is unbeatable!) and great service. Everything tasted amazing and authentic and the staff was extremely friendly. If I had only one suggestion to make: please make this babies/toddlers friendly and install a changing station in the restroom :)
Amazing service! Food and cocktails were great. One of the employees, whom I assume was a manager, was enthusiastic to share with me recommendations on some mezcal. Additionally, my wife wasn’t feeling very well by the time our food was delivered and the staff was happy to box it up for us to go. Excellent service and food. Definitely recommend this place!
Food was amazing , margaritas were top notch! Will definitely be coming back , thank you for a great time and service.
Great place. We were not into tacos that day but the place had space so we tried it out. Wow, the food was so good and fresh. We tried fish, chicken and lamb tacos. All great. Drinks were awesome. We even had a quasadia, yes it too was tasty. We thought we had no room for desert but how can you say no to churoes. Only small negative, as a gringo the staff did not understand our humor and some orders.
Great Mexican food in Coconut Grove! My husband and I decided to try this place because KoKo had a 45 minute wait. What a pleasant surprise! The food here was absolutely delicious. We actually came back multiple times during our stay in Miami. It was a casual atmosphere so we could come after a pool or beach day and grab a quick bite. Highly recommend the burrito, queso fundido, and fish tacos. They had a nice selection of tequilas as well. The male bartender (I can’t remember his name) was also very friendly and gave us good recommendations.
So hard to find authentic Mexican food in Miami but this place delivered. Owned by Mexicans and you can tell the food was beyond delicious and the micheladas were yum! The service was also incredible - thank you Valentina!
