We had the appetizer sample platter a great variety. Also the steak burrito and the skirt steak platter
Great atmosphere
Gracious staff
I know everyone visits the sponge docks and has Greek food, we tried but never even got drinks they were understaffed. So we tried this place the vibe was way better , service was great and the food was authentic.

Went for dinner on a wed. The food was very good, great service, the $1.50 chicken and beef tacos were great. And the margaritas and sangria were terrific.
You can park close by for free, don't pay for parking.
Great local option if your tired of the worn out, sloppy, tired Greek food in the area that seems to be thrown together.
So nice to have this great other options.
Keep up the good work!

Thought we would try a Mexican place closer to home for a quick takeout dinner. We all got steak chimichanga dinners. I got mine without cheese on top and a side of guacamole.
To the best of my knowledge (and past 30 years of ordering them), a chimichanga is basically a fried burrito. This was not that. This was diced up, chewy, grisly steak bits in a folded tortilla, and fried.
My husband, who loves Mexican food (but thought this was terrible), said he thinks the beans were Texas style. I thought it was just a liquid mess with a few beans and cheese thrown in to make it look somewhat like a side of beans.
The rice was ok, and the guacamole had a lot of lime in it, but it was ok too.
The 2 other "chimichangas" were the same. The only difference, they were swimming in some kind of liquid cheese, which I would assume was a queso cheese.
This was 1 of the worst meals we've overpaid for in quite a while.
The cost was $56 and some change, for 3 chimichangas and an extra side of guacamole. Ridiculous price for this very poor quality and quantity of food.

Food was yummy. Service was great. Only issue is the city of Tarpon fails bigtime at available parking for sponge dock businesses. This will end up being it's financial demise as most people aren't going to walk 1/2 mile from a public parking lot.

Loved it! We strolled in on a super hot day after being woo'ed by the sign outside. We orders two margaritas - one mango and one strawberry, which were just right to beat the heat. Cold, sweet, and strong enough for us.
For food - I truly enjoyed an order of tacos al pastor which were exactly the way I wanted them to to be. Crispy little bites of seasoned pork covered in onions and cilantro in a corn tortilla. Absolutely perfect. My husband enjoyed 2 steak gorditas which were fat little puffs full of meat, bean and cheesy goodness. Both were delicious.
Very happy with our visit. Strange to be in a primarily Greek area and end up in a Mexican restaurant, but we are so glad that we did.
