“This is a small establishment with limited seating both inside and out. You order at the counter from very pleasant staff. The food was absolutely excellent and perhaps the best sandwiches we have ever had. Fries and kettle chips were also perfect. Large portions and reasonable prices will definitely make return.”

“First off. Love Coquina Beach. It is one of the cleanest beaches I've ever ever ever been to. After every event that I do there, I try to walk the beach to pick up any trash and I've never come out with a full bag. To think about it. I don't think I really put much in a bag! Maybe some seashells!Anyway, this is the only Cafe that they have from a distance on this beach so at least the people are nice. Just typical fast food, beach bar food. But the beach makes it everything and so does the staff”

“Beautiful restaurant on the pier with stunning water/bridge views. Great service, delicious food! There are shore birds who patrol for food scraps and I commend the staff for trying to keep them at bay. If you would be bothered by them, eat inside. We didn't mind.Parking: The chances of parking near the restaurant are slim. Drop handicap persons off as you will probably have to find parking in town or a side street. Be prepared to walk. Better yet, Uber.”

“Wicked Cantina has good food. I got the Grouper tacos two days in a row. I had the rib eye fajita which was amazing. Location was convenient to my hotel location. I ate there 4 times because of the distance. Indoor and outdoor is nice. Staff is nice also.”

“We are in town visiting family and came here. I was a bit disappointed in the food.We hadAjillo fillet (very good)Thai nugs (skip these)Pecan grouperThai grouper (this was a specual)CuippinoChips and ranch (very good)Corn muffins. (Very good)The Ajillo was tender and cooked well. The Thai seasoning was really goodSkip the nugs as they were over cooked and chewy. Not great.Thai grouper as the special was really good. Probably the best dish we had.The cuipinno was fine but the class were over cooked. Too bad.The pecan grouper was good. The asparagus was overcooked so it wasn't great. The grouper was awesome tho.The service was great and friendly.”

“This place was delicious and the espresso was fantastic. The breakfast was amazing I had chocolate with pears crepes soooooooo yummy!!!! I was pleasantly surprised they had actual espresso and not just coffee!”

“This was a great place to stop for a quick bite and drink after pedaling over to the island. . I love that they have giant troughs filled with ice and different beers. . . Ice cold and refreshing! Very friendly staff”

“Unfortunately there was a large bachelorette party celebrating and they were getting out of hand and crying and swearing, which tends to happen. The food was pretty good and the service was great. I'll give them another try soon.”

“We set out on the patio. It was extremely windy. The food was ok. The music was ok. The service was ok. Very busy! It wasn't any place special but it was ok.”

“We ate outside because it was such a beautiful day. We got the hamburger, and it was huge - we could have shared it. The Cole Slaw was very good also (not runnny).”

“My boyfriend and I love this place. We have gone several times both for dine in and take out- our only complaint is that they don’t deliver off the island which is totally understandable with the traffic. He grew up going to NJ beaches and I am originally from NY and this pizza reminds us both of the pizza back north. We love this place and can’t wait to try more of their menu☺️”

“The crowd is awesome. The bartenders are definitely on their game.Management is world class. Everyone treats you like they've known you forever. The bingo is extremely fun, not to mention the payouts are great. Drinks are definitely worth the price. Beautiful view as well.Parking: They have parking and a very good attendant.”

“Stopped in for a Pirate Bucket…Or two! ? after walking the beach. Drinks are strong here so pace yourself. We drank one there and got one to take back to the house. We didn’t eat this time but have had food from there in the past. I recommend the fish taco’s! Awesome atmosphere and the bartenders are great!”
