Unless they’re tiny taco stands, Mexican restaurants are hit-or-miss down here. Tequila Sunrise is almost always a big hit, and the fact that you can get 50 tequilas plus Dos Equis amber on tap (!) is part of the reason. Multiply those factors by the number of margaritas available and you risk the serious possibility […]

There’s a glut of “Fresh Mex” options in and around Fort Lauderdale, but the Whole Enchilada is a welcome addition to the fold. This fast eatery has a quirky, personalized feel, from the vintage books that decorate the high-up shelves to the kooky movies the staff plays during lunch and dinner hours. The food shares […]
The walls at Tijuana Flats are covered with enough silly slogans and “xtreme” flair to base a whole other Mike Judge movie on. But the Tex-Mex ain’t bad: burritos, quesadillas, and tacos filled with carefully grilled meats and fresh ingredients. Better yet is the fast-casual chain’s hot sauce bar, a try-at-your-own-risk collection of chili pepper […]
For whatever reason, the new breed of Mexican chain restaurant likes lots of hokey, gaudy graphics involving mustached caricatures, lots of margarita-pushing, chili-n-cactuses everywhere, and a late last call on weekends — this Coral Springs spot doesn’t differ. Diversity permeates the Tijuana Taxi menu: You can get ribs here, blackened mahi-mahi or salmon, and more […]
Tipico boasts a food lineup that jitterbugs from Mexico to Cuba to Kansas City (cheeseburgers, caesar salads?), flaunting a catholic sense of cuisine as confidently as do all the other local Mexican-and-more places. Highlights on the meandering menu include the Veracruzana combo (chicken tostada, cheese enchilada, beef taco for $10.95); juicy churrasco steaks($11.95); and a […]

But we do have Tropical Tacos, which serves up tasty meals on wheels right off of Fort Lauderdale’s State Road 84.

Don’t expect authentic Yucatan regional specialties here. But do anticipate some well-made tried and trues, including nachos, fajitas, chimichangas, and burritos. Mostly, the food is tasty and comforting, with a few stand-out items including creamy, buttery guacamole and chili-infused chilaquiles. Fried ice cream for dessert may not inspire the jaded at heart, but the young […]
Welcome to the “Fresh Zone,” where the Cal-Mex fare lives up to the joint’s name. Everything here is made daily on the premises, from lard-free beans to guacamole to cilantro-spiked rice. Baja-style Mexican food includes the best fish tacos and shrimp burritos in Fort Lauderdale. Zona Fresca’s portions are huge and prices ridiculously reasonable.
The second location of the popular Fort Lauderdale Mexican joint, Zona Fresca duplicates the fresh flavors and exceptional burritos, tacos, and quesadillas of the original. Nothing on the menu tops $10, and orders usually take all of five minutes to fill. Yet Zona Plantation still manages to top most sit-down Mexican joints. The fish tacos […]
