“ Lona Cocina Tequileria delivers moderately priced, moderately tasty food with a fantastic oceanfront view—the view being, without a doubt, the highlight of the experience. The service was excellent, and I really enjoyed the smoky salsa—it stood out more than the main dishes. I had the Baja fish tacos, which were good, but nothing to write home about. Overall, it’s a solid spot for a casual meal by the beach without breaking the bank. Just don’t come expecting to be blown away by the food. Come for the view, stay for the vibes. ”
“ Lona Cocina Tequileria in Fort Lauderdale is a sweet spot right on the beach with a fun, lively vibe. The Mexican food is fresh, with fajitas, guacamole, and margaritas that really stand out. We tried their Dine Out Lauderdale menu and it comes with a complimentary Lona Margarita. The ocean views add to the whole experience. Service was excellent too. Instagram - @thesofloduo ”
“ First time in this restaurant and it didn’t disappoint. They have great reviews so me and my husband decided to visit for some appetizers and drinks. My husband had some beers and I tried the Tamarita and Pasión Picante Margaritas. My favorite was the Tamarita with tamarindo and don Julio reposado tequila. So delicious!! If you really love something spicy go for the other one. As appetizers we decided to try the yellow corn esquites and traditional guacamole. They were very tasty!!!! One of the best guacamole we have ever tried. The only thing we have to say about this place is that the service was not very good. Our server was not very friendly. But definitely we will be back!!! ”
“ Here’s a shorter, more casual version with your update: ⸻ I come here every time I’m in Fort Lauderdale. The lobster burrito and a margarita can’t go wrong. Fair price for good food!! Nice outdoor seating, super pet-friendly, and right by the beach. Service isn’t fast, but it’s friendly and helpful. Lunch is more relaxed while dinner gets livelier. Always a solid choice. ”
“ We ate dinner here twice. The food was fine, nothing special... except the steak and Fritas. Did I say we ate here twice? Because the steak was the reason why. It was to die for. Staff was friendly and attentive, though we got something we didn't order and had two sides which were implied to be included but were charged. But yeah, I'd go back just for the steak. ”
