Dietary restrictions: I am Gluten-free and they accommodated me with all my silly request. I did not get sick off their food, which is very unusual because you always get contaminated no matter where you're at.“

“I loved all the music they played. I love the service that we had from our waitress. She was very very awesome and this is our first time coming here and we will definitely be back. We love the fact that they open up at 10 o’clock because that’s right in our wheelhouse for wanting to come out and eat. One margarita down, that was the second one oops I’m sorry I didn’t take a picture at the beginning, but they were awesome“

“This is my home away from home! As a recovered alcoholic I never thought I'd be comfortable hanging out in one of my favorite social settings, but at LA Cabaña I'm safe, at home, welcomed and not pressured to drink. I cannot begin to sing enough praises, the people, the food, the atmosphere all of it is awesome! ✌️🤟🍀“

“The food was very good and the people are very nice. The tables were clean and food came out fast. I will definitely come back.“

“My only complaint would be for the food. I had a taco salad that was okay except the tortilla Shell was overcooked, and the tomatoes were not diced. They gave one slice of tomato that wasn't cut up. I can also say that the hamburger meat wasn't really seasoned enough. Pretty bland. Other than that, the atmosphere was impeccable, the service was out of this world. Very friendly and very welcoming“

“The beeest birria tacos I’ve found around! I think about them on the daily“

“This is the best location!! I sent in an order for takeout. It is located in the building behind Garden, off Jefferson. $71 for chips & guac, crunchwrap, street tacos, and steak bowl, incl tip and taxes. There is so much food -- we will have at least 2 more meals. The truck is right next to an outdoor bar that I cannot wait to visit in person next girls night out.“

“Me and my little sister went in there Saturday morning and baby that burrito was good, had me humming while I ate. The young lady that served us was just as sweet as she was pretty, kept checking on us and making sure we were alright. And that young man at the front? Lord have mercy, that boy was handsome with a smile so bright it made my whole day. Felt like family soon as we walked in. We will be back.“

“I ate here for the very first time and let me just say it was the best burrito I have ever had in my life. The cactus grits on your burrito is a must. The staff was very friendly and prompt. I will be going back to eat here and I suggest you do as well. I went to the one on 12th ave in Pensacola . Just superb! Great food, clean restaurant, and wonderful staff .“

“I will say that I have traveled Many times state side and abroad. Just happened to note the name Cactus Flower- California style.. I'm a native Texan and I know Mexican.. This beats anything I've had in Florida.. almost as good as Dallas.. I highly recommend this. Staff was busy with lunch and attentive.. service was swift, prompt and efficient. I highly recommend this fair for the wholesome food lover in you. My complements to the owners, chef, staff.. my bill was 14.02 I left a 20. Treat the server in your life well.. I'm a Mexican food addict.“

“Great food, great staff, great atmosphere. Will we return for another meal? Yes we will! Looking forward to it! Thank-you Cazadores!“

“I have been going to Miguel’s since I was a kid and it’s always been my favorite Mexican in Pensacola! I would recommend it to anyone, that’s why I left a “would recommend” review. I don’t want the positive rating to do down, but I do think the owner/manager should be aware of their restaurant today. I’m in town this week so we decided to grab lunch at Miguel’s. The food was as amazing as I remember, but the service was not so great. To be fair, the restaurant was extremely busy and we only saw two servers working. I think they were trying to do the best they could to keep up. However, after our food was delivered, we didn’t see our server for at least 30 min. I then asked the other server for to go chips, boxes and a dessert and it seemed like we were being a nuisance. Our server made it to the table with our dessert about 20 minutes later and said they had been slammed with call in to go orders. We got our to go boxes and I asked again for chips. She quickly took the bill back to add $1.25 for chips. Here is my opinion: first, don’t leave your tables alone for that long without acknowledging them. Secondly, if you are that busy in the restaurant and can’t keep up, maybe let callers know you aren’t able to take to go orders at the moment. Lastly, I honestly don’t care about paying $1.25 for a bag of chips, but when your customers have been sitting for two hours and were never even offered a drink refill, maybe throw in the chips at no charge.“

“Amazing 🤩 molcajete rocks!!!“

“We've been to this location many times since they've opened. Today is the first time I can say I've been completely satisfied. The staff working today at noon were the best. We were greeted by everyone with their well known greeting. Our orders were made quickly with all the ingredients looking fresh and bins full. The salsa and drink areas were clean and orderly. As we ate, I noticed one staff member always coming through keeping tables clean, trays gathered, and trash bin area clean. Those ladies deserve a raise!“

“I have been eating at Taco Rock for several years and every single time I have been happy and full. Their food is always on point and delicious. I was short a couple of dollars one time so I asked the woman at the window if she could hold my food and I’ll be back with the remaining $. She kindly told me to leave with the food and return when I can with the rest of the $. My sister took the money up there for me the same day because I got tied up at work. This business is a rare gem. A++“

“by far the best tacos i've personally ever had, in pensacola or anywhere overall.
incredibly flavorful, hot/fresh, and very well portioned, abundant meat, fair price (i know it sounds like a infomercial but they are really that good) I tried pretty much all other taco renowned places here in pensacola and for me, El Amigo is light years ahead. You have to try them to understand how good they are!!
10 stars easy!!“

“The absolute best. I try to eat here at least once a week. The tacos cabeza and tacos lengua are delicious but I’m biased to my favorite — al pastor. The associates are so friendly and the prices can’t be beat. You will never regret coming here. ¡Hasta pronto mis amigos!“

“I love some Mexican 🌮🌮🌯🌯 it soo good great place I will bring somebody this place thank you 10/10“

“¡Muchos artículos para elegir y excelente servicio! 😊“
