Great service, delicious fajitas (got chicken and steak for no additional charge with the Baha veggies . Yum!). Would stop here again if I'm back in Orlando!

Richard Landeck

One of the only places that I've found that actually asks what time your flight leaves! I love places that will let me know I don't have time to eat at their establishment!!

Kelly Ellis

Loved it. Drove from Tampa just to eat here, and found out that the place was inside the terminal. BUT, the manager Jeff Contrucci came out and took our order and brought us our food. AWESOME PLACE!!

Jeanne Nuara

JC is an excellent waiter . Salsa is spicy and good. Chili con queso is not cheese at all but still really tasty. Kim Crawford Sav blanc in 9oz is the best and you can take your wine in a to-go cup!

Larry Hawes

The Shaken Margarita is the way to go. Decent guacamole too.

Larry Hawes

Get the Milagro Agave Rita margarita . One of the best I've had. Anywhere.

Thomas Taylor

For airport food , it is surprisingly good and easily beats the other options close by. They get the food out super fast too.

Kate K.

We had great, fast service from Danny, & our food (Tex-Mex more than Mexican) was great. Try the Chicken Salsa Fresco (it's SPICY !), & don't waste your $5.49 on the guac .

Julia G

Only two tables here with access to power outlets . One is straight back from the server stand. The other is to the far right wall. Ask the servers to be seated nearby; maybe the occupant is friendly

Matthias

Usually, not big on giving bad reviews but the meal was so clearly reheated (cheese and other food stuck to the plate and rice that was dried out) that I cannot give a good review. Service was decent.

Burt Blanchard

Really decent and authentic for being at the airport . Great view . Get the empanadas appetizer...great!

Eric Andersen

Don't miss the beer bottle chandelier by the bar

Eric Andersen

The fajitas here are a filling meal…two plates worth!

Emily Jenkins

note:: kitchen closes early!! Got here at 8:20 and the kitchen and dining room was closed. Irritating as it is the only restaurant in the place

Donia

Breakfast burrito (egg potato ) wasn't too bad but you definitely need to add guac or pico or something

Kristin P

Very good service at the bar area + free chips and salsa ☺️

Eboni

House margarita is 10 bucks! Expensive and tastes like Chili 's $6 house. Must be the airport . But, they do ask you about your flight times. That's a considerate gesture!

Joanne Sardini

Breakfast burrito was good - love that everything is cooked to order - no microwaved rubbery eggs here!!

Matthew Nelson

I expected Pace salsa , I was pleasantly surprised with both taste and heat. My server (Andrew) was a rock star server.

Carrie Helbert

Cesar salad (with steak rather than chicken ) is delicious! Very satisfying before a long flight.

shifty

Why did they frost the bottom half of the windows so you can't see the planes when you sit down?

Michel

Sit at the bar and enjoy the draft selection and the tequila selection though I would stay away from the food if you are wanting real Mexican .

Toni Patton

Super great service. Food was quick to get out and tasted divine.

Joshua Chaney

Good service ! Nice little gym in the dark cave of an airport .

Blanca

Breakfast burrito to wake up, place not crowded and good service

Christopher Morini

The chips and salsa at the bar are FREE!

Frances Lamanna

the enchiladas were delicious ! reasonably priced. service was really slow.

Corey Thrash

The fajitas are excellent! House margarita was damn good too. Two thumbs up!

Matthew Nelson

Grande size the OTB House Margarita on the rocks. :-)

Stephen Faudemer

Great beer !.....while waiting for our delayed flight.......mmmm good chicken and fries .... Salsa really spicy .

papawow

Eat cheap and vegetarian . Get the Guacamole and a side of beans.

Chirl Girl

The martinis cost $15!! And that's with the house vodka !

Gillian Dionne

9 bucks for 6 oz of middling Chardonnay . Oh, the fruit flies all around the bar are a lovely treat...

Daniela Madrid

Cheese and bean burritooooo

Hugo Finol

Fast, courteous service and cold beers .

Kayla Kelly

There's plastic silverware because of airport regulations - not by the restaurants choice so calm those horses.

Cristty Ortiz

Fish tacos are the best

Thomas Wood

Food is delicious but caution, service is super slow at a table. If you have less than an hour until boarding try the bar .

Krystal H.

1/2 hostesses was nice, the other incredibly rude. Server was great, guac wasn't worth the $5.50. Can't really call it a Mexican place ; they sell french fries .

IS KLE

Fajitas are good. Service takes too long for an airport ...

Wing Yu

The steak nachos are really good!

Tyler M

Even with a $15 margarita , chips and salsa were $6. At least they were salty though because the rim of my glass had maybe 3 licks worth. Painfully slow service. Ruby Tuesday in Terminal B is better

Ms.QueensKitty

Try the perfect patrone ...it's perrrfect ????

Juan Andrés

Beef Classic Burrito , the best option.

William Budd

The atmosphere is jumping. However, the food was not very good. I had the fish and chips . The fish was overcooked, not crispy , and not hot at all.

Lisa Sosa

One of very few dining options in this terminal. Service can be pretty slow.

Isabela Schlup

Best restaurant in the airport

Robyn

Not very attentive service . When neither the tables nor bar have been bussed and you aren't acknowledged in the first 5 min of sitting at the bar there's a problem.

K F

You can order vegan fajitas here.

Angela Sinni

They do not carry the NFL football package this year. Boooo!!! Catch your game back at Fox Sports Bar .

There for dinner. Parking is impossible. The view of Lake Ivanhoe is awesome. The food? Meh. The service? Okay. I'd go back for drinks and to stare at the water, maybe nachos, but not much else. Sorry - Tim Shea
