In our search for a Sunday funday spot, we stumbled upon Taco Beach Shack. What immediately caught my eyes were their colorful, fun beach decor! Inflatable donuts were hung from the ceiling and the wood furnitures were painted in fun colors. We seated ourselves under an umbrella closest to the bar. Matt our bartender, made his way over to us ready to serve tacos and margaritas. I loved the Cadillac Margarita and Mahi Mahi tacos. Both were equally delicious. Matt kept up with our pace and our drinks were never empty. There was no music at our side of the shack. No one had any issues with me pulling out my mini speaker and getting the tunes going. This is a great chill spot and I'm happy we found it! A must stop when heading anywhere near Hollywood beach. read more

The tacos and ambience were good, which is why I am giving 3 stars. The service was.... Just decent. He dropped off the food and then didn't come talk to us again. Do NOT get the chips & queso. It was nacho cheese, like the kind you would get at the movies. Very disappointing. And the spicy mango margarita was not spicy at all. The table was sticky and dirty. I really liked the mushroom tacos. I wish I would have just got 4 of those and nothing else! lol! Photos attached. read more

Stopped by this taco spot recently, and overall it was... fine, but definitely a mixed bag. I had the carnitas taco combo, and while the carnitas themselves were pretty good; tender and well-seasoned, the sides really fell short. The rice was hard, the beans were too salty, and the corn didn't have much flavor. I also ordered a spicy mango margarita, which sounded great but ended up being way too strong, and they even asked if I wanted to "upgrade" to Bacardi for $3 extra, which felt a little odd for a margarita. Another surprise: water is $8, and they don't offer tap water. That was definitely a downside. One friend got the mushroom taco combo and absolutely loved it. I didn't try it myself, but based on how enthusiastic they were, that's probably what I'd go for next time. Another friend ordered the steak tacos, and I did try a bite of those. Unfortunately, the steak was overcooked, chunky, and tough to bite through, so I wouldn't recommend that one. Overall, the place has some hits and misses. Not terrible, not amazing; just okay, depending on what you order. read more

Taco Beach Shack - Carnitas Combo - Bars Near Me - Hollywood, Florida

I came here to celebrate the birthday of a good fellow foodie friend who loves Mexican food. So when celebrating her birthday during Labor Day weekend in Hollywood Beach, we had one of our celebration dinners here. We've driven past this little place right off the bridge from Hollywood Boulevard whenever we come to Hollywood Beach and finally have a chance to stop in. When the name says 'beach shack', it is pretty close to that, it's a funky tropical open air restaurant. We walked in without reservations and were able to get a table for our group of eight. Our servers were pretty attentive, and the food nicely spicy. The chips were crispy and served with both a queso, who me who usually only goes for red salsa, loved as well the aforementioned spicy salsa. She ordered a burrito, and I went with the fajitas. My plate had a nice amount of chicken and grilled vegetables; I liked the fact that the "side" plate (fajita fillings) had a large helping of sour cream and that I could get black beans. For her birthday treat, she got a tray of churros with dolce de Leche and the candle to sing happy birthday. My only complaint was that the sun was in our face most of the dinner, since we sat at sunset. It would be nice if they lowered some of the canvas covers and or put some fans for when it's hot out. This is a perfect spot to celebrate when you were out at the beach, since I think it is a few steps from the sand also. She celebrated with a bottle of her favorite wine, Pinot Grigio, while I ordered a couple of Mojitos. These were among the better ones I've had: well blended, but really strong. Salut! read more

Fantastic Hillary was awesome the music was awesome the food was awesome everything was so awesome

Always a fun atmosphere, great food and excellent service! Hilary our waitress was fantastic, she's the absolute best!! We'll be back.

Well I have a compliant... we got seated around 5-6... the table was at an angle that the sun could not let the people see. We polectky requested the blind to be dropped for a bit while the sun went down to make it a little more comfortable during our dinning experience. We were given a flat no! Didn't offer to try to move the table around. Just basically deal with it. Besides that the food was good. Well portion. Pretty good music. The only damper was the sun blinding us! lol read more

Overall the experience was amazing! The street corn was a little disappointing as it didn't have much flavor however the tacos were fantastic! The atmosphere was fantastic and our waitress was super friendly! read more

My mahi tacos were excellent. I will say the Baja is better than the grilled (I think they just season with tajin but yum). The grilled mahi was a little dry. This is simple and delicious Mexican food. Great service, good prices. My husband had the chicken burrito and it was heavy on the chicken, which was a nice surprise (he said many of the "fancy" Mexican restaurants in Toronto are mostly rice). But note - the sauce for the burrito came on the outside making it super messy to eat. The restaurant is entirely outdoors but is mostly shaded. Recommend! Would come back. read more

The food is great the drinks are perfect and the wait staff is always nice. It's an open area so make sure you bring layers when it chilly.

Open air taco spot right on the beach with music to add the party vibe. Sebastian our server so so nice and took really good care of us and the food was filling and very yummy. Really recommended adding the Cilantro sauce to anything you order because it is AMAZING! read more

My partner and I came here on a Tuesday night and let me just the staff was excellent! Everyone was so nice and welcoming however the food was not good what so ever. We finished walking the beach and were on our way out so we decided to drop in here for Taco Tuesdays but it was horrid. We both the beef taco combo & related the taste the taco bell (they use ground beef.) The restaurant itself is super nice and lit up with gorgeous decor but that doesn't matter when food quality is lacking. I also got a mojito which was gorgeous, but extremely sour. Overall, staff is amazing at what they do and their work ethic, and keeping the restaurant environment bubbly, but the menu definitely could use a revamp. read more

Excellent Tacos, cool vibe but beers and cocktails ate expensive if not during Happy Hour. But the Brisket Taco for $7.50 was so flavorful and honestly 1 was enough to fill me up. read more

The ambiance is nice specifically because the beach is walking distance and it's outdoors. A great spot to pull up to before you go to the beach or after. On Tuesday's the tacos are BOGO for select tacos. Their tacos are very fresh and have great flavor. The drinks are also good. The service is good as the food comes out fairly quickly. I have been here multiple times specifically on taco Tuesday. I'd recommend it especially if you've never been, check them out ! read more

I rarely give 5s but this dive deserves one! Courtney our server was great... from suggestions to service! Our pitcher of margaritas was refreshing and delicious and complimented the guac and chips. The guacamole needed some oomph like onions but was fresh and delicious. I had the chicken tacos which had just the right balance of spice and chicken. The shrimp taco which also was great and had nicely fried shrimp. The angus beef taco went down quickly and the shredded brisket quesadilla was huge and delicious. The atmosphere was upbeat and everyone was enjoying the experience. Great meal and I'd return if in the area! read more

Visited for a working lunch. Amazing service, fresh food, and awesome outdoor island vibe. My waitress was Kourtney who offered solid recommendations for drinks, remained attentive, and was very friendly. (Finally an excellent wait staff!!) The steak quesadilla is the best!!!!!

I'm embarrassed to say we left GG's on Mother's Day, to leave after three hours waiting for our food. We dashed across the street for my old standby. Kristina took care of us, and we had a pitcher of margaritas in 5 minutes and food within 5 minutes after we ordered. Thank god my 85 year old mother loves Tacos. And margaritas. This place has saved me more than once, see my previous reviews. Get here, respect. read more

Why don't things ever change for the better. So, a few days ago, we saw the specials that were posted on IG and when we told the server he had no clue! I used to eat here fairly regularly bc I lived in Hllywd Beach. I hadn't been in a few months. The quality has gone way down and I can see why ppl have told me they've stopped going. The server received confirmation and there was only 1 drink that was eligible for HH; 1st time I have ever come across this! The drink was the Margarita; that you could have gotten out of a can. The shrimp and carnitas tacos came out 1 minute after we ordered them; we found that extremely odd. Were they just sitting there? They were cold and flavorless. We def won't be back! read more

I came here to say to please don't make the mistake of ordering "chips and queso". Someone before me on here said it was nachos and cheese from a high school concession stand... They were so right. I ate 1 chip and was done. The only positive thing is that the atmosphere is nice. read more

Hilary our server was great she was quick to get us what we needed even on a busy night! The food was very good! We had the chicken tacos, chicken quesadillas, and ground beef tacos and loved all of it. They also had a really talented singer for entertainment. read more

Solid spot by Hollywood beach, the tacos are not going to blow you out of this world, but they're solid. Would recommend getting the grilled fish or the chimichurri steak burrito, that was . They don't give free chips and salsa, but this is not a Tex mex joint, it's a taco/burrito spot. The people that work here and the atmosphere in general is fun and nice! read more

Food was amazing. The server was annoyed for us to be there. It was a Struggle to get drinks, my wife and son couldn't get a refill. My wife couldn't get a refill on alcoholic drinks and my son struggled to get a refill on a Coca Cola. Order the large drinks as I did. As we were leaving the server pretty much pushed my chair in for me as I was in front of it. We all have bad days but if you get Nancy N I would just leave. read more

Literally downloaded this app to warn people about the food they serve here. To start, all the food was bland. "Chips and queso" was nacho cheese at a high school concession stand. Margs were saltier than the sea nearby. Although, the atmosphere is very nice and service was pretty good, I would not plan to get excited to eat mexican food here. read more

Melissa was amazing! So attentive and worked her butt off taking care of our party of 6 visiting from RI! The tacos were to die for and the whole place was such a perfect vibe to kick off a cruise week! The music also very on point! Thanks Melissa & crew! read more

Food was pretty bad and had no taste. The street corn was terrible. Stay clear. Many other choices available.

Loved the drinks, food, and service at Taco Beach Shack! Found this restaurant after a quick Yelp search, and it did not disappoint. The spicy mango margarita and the mojito were both delicious. We got 2 orders of nachos with chicken, and the portions were huge and so good! The music was great. It was midday, so they had on some oldies . Will definitely be back when I'm in area. read more

If you're anywhere near Hollywood Beach and craving something fresh and flavorful, this spot is a must. Just a short walk from the sand, we found a laid-back gem serving up some of the best tacos I've had in a while. The shrimp tacos were juicy and perfectly seasoned, with just the right kick, while the mushroom tacos surprised me in the best way. Earthy, savory, and bursting with flavor, they're a great option whether you're plant-based or just want to switch it up. We also had corn on the cob, grilled and seasoned to perfection, and a side of rice that was anything but basic fluffy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. To top it off, there was a live band playing just the right mix of music. Not too loud, not too mello just enough to give the whole place that feel good energy without drowning out conversation. Service was good as well. read more

Had a great time here for a girls' night out! The service was impressively fast, and our waitress Mariana was super attentive and sweet--definitely made the experience better. The ambiance is perfect for drinks with friends--fun, lively, and relaxed. The food was alright, nothing too special, but I wouldn't come back for the food anyway. The mosterritas were fire though! Definitely recommend stopping by for drinks. read more
