Love every item I've tried on the menu. If you arrive much after they open you will have a wait. The prickly pear margaritas are a specialty, and are delicious and fun. A perfect place to take guests to the area.

Upon doing research for good margaritas in Fort Lauderdale, I was compelled by the reviews on Trip Advisor and the photos on the restaurant. We called the restaurant to ask about dress code and reservations which surprisingly there was not a strict dress code as I thought there would be by the looks of the restaurant from the photos on...

Often stop by before or after a movie at the Gateway. Small but busy bistro with great southwestern food. Good happy hour but always packed so get there early.
A must have is the Prickly Pair Margarita. Good food, not outrageously priced. Busy happy hour. However, happy hour prices are not in effect in you are seated at a table. Too bad cause we would have eaten there again.
Slightly off the main drag is this lovely restaurant. You can't reserve so we were expecting a wait, it was busy even on a Monday. However we were shown to a table immediately. Having read reviews we tried the prickly pear margarita and I think I'm addicted! The food and service were good. Well worth a visit.
The prickly pear margaritas are a must. It may be difficult to get a space at the bar or a table on choice nights, but the drinks and food are very worth it. I love their selection of unique quesadillas (duck, etc.).
My husband and I were told to check out this local restaurant during out Ft. Lauderdale vacation. I had an excellent lobster and avocado salad appetizer (which was enough of a meal for me). In addition, I ordered their manchego mac & cheese which was superb. My husband enjoyed his beef tenderloin burrito as well. Highly recommended.
Southwestern Fusion, Excellent Service, and exquisite flavors. If you go, you must have the award winning Prickly Pear Margarita! I have been on many occasions. The menu changes but the food is always exceptional. Its a small place and they don't take reservations, so go early. I recently went on a Wednesday at 6:30 and it was full...Whimsical atmosphere. Enjoy!
The place is small, and they usually don't take reservations. Have shown up at 7:30 on Saturday night and had a 1.5 hour wait.Its worth the wait, if you can get a spot at the bar....good luck. Everything on the menu is fantastic, and the House specialty Prickly Pear Margarita is AWESOME.
Have found that we can easily get a...
