    A decent place for Mexican food. Pricing on the higher side. Service is not the best but not terrible. Lighting makes it hard to see menu.

    We've eaten here for years. Pretty good Mexican tho not my favorite place to go for it but it's close. But in the last few years it has gotten really expensive. I know everything has but, for example, the veggie fajitas I had were $20!! For just veggies and rice. That's crazy to me. Other places in town charge $15, $16.99 for veggie fajitas. All of the prices have gone up so much, we rarely eat here. The restaurant looks good inside tho the bench seating is uncomfortable. They do have a few outside tables as well. Again, decent food but you're definitely paying high dollars for it.

    Chips and salsa

    We love the food here, it's always delicious and the service is very quick. Best Mexican food close to home

    Pins colada margarita!

We walked up a few flights of stairs to enter the restaurant, which is located above a seafood restaurant. So, I'm not sure if the restaurant is accessible for those that have mobility challenges. We sat outside on the patio in order to enjoy a view of the ocean! The day was beautiful! We ordered birria tacos, a chicken quesadilla, and horchata. The tacos came with ranch style beans that looked yummy, but they didn't taste great. There was a funny aftertaste that I didn't prefer despite positive reviews. I didn't finish them. For some reason, I was hoping for delicious, scratch-made horchata. I was disappointed by the artificial tasting, watery mix. It just wasn't my cup of tea. The birria tacos, on the other hand, were tasty. You should try them! My dining companion enjoyed the grilled quesadilla too!

Our server was awful. Longer waits than surrounding tables, hot the order slightly off, but forgot to enter my daughter's dinner. To make it worse, she abandoned our table after that and a friendly manager took over. Not sure why, as I was not rude (I promise!). Food was ok but poor service overshadowed the experience.

Their ceviche is also consistently fresh and delicious. They recently remodeled, adding a much larger covered veranda surrounded by lush plants, creating a beautiful, relaxing outdoor space. Inside, the clean, air-conditioned dining room offers a comfortable spot to enjoy your meal no matter the weather. While they shine with creative vegetarian and vegan-friendly dishes, Café Verde also offers tasty options for meat eaters, making it a great spot for everyone.

If you're looking for a vibrant, welcoming spot with something delicious for every palate, Café Verde is a must-visit! Highly recommend!
