Finished work early. Stopped in to try something different to eat. Did not realize it was 'Happy Hour.' Found modest prices, fresh, tasty Mexican fare. Attentive, friendly service. Two thumbs up!! read more

Okay, don't get me wrong the tacos are pretty good for south Florida. Quality tortillas and good prices on oysters. Please take this as constructive criticism bc I do enjoy the taco Tuesday deals (they just up'd the prices which I'm sure they will do again) But your service is horrible. There is one bartender I can't remember her name but she wasn't there this taco Tuesday (she is so sweet!!) so we sat at a table and our waitress got our order wrong and then when I pointed it out on the bill she has the manager come out to ask about it? Any decent restaurant will automatically apologize for the waiter or waitresses mistake and comp it. It's also very confusing when the menu shows 3 tacos for birria and then the price is only for 1? Make it make sense. Music can be turned down a bit as well so maybe the waiters will hear and put in the order correctly. I've been here a few times and the service is always ass. They always mess up our order and then charge us for what we didn't order. If I go out to eat I want to be treated with good service bc I'm paying more for the experience. read more

Walking in, the place has a very cool ambiance: dim lighting, large screen tvs/projectors, a big bar, and loud music. We were greeted and seated immediately. Unfortunately that's where the good service ended. The server brought us water and menus without saying a word. When he finally took our orders, it was very hard to hear him. We ordered a beer and a margarita to start. The margarita was delicious and strong. For food, we ordered the elote, 2 tacos (carnitas and chicken), and a steak burrito. We assumed that even though we'd ordered everything at the same time, we would receive the appetizer (elote) first but that was not the case. We received the tacos first, then the elote shortly after. It was about 10 more minutes before the burrito showed up, forcing my partner and I to eat separately or let the tacos get cold. Taste-wise, the elote was on a sliver of cob (not the whole cob and not corn kernels) - too difficult to eat. The carnitas taco was way too spicy for me. The chicken taco was ok. The burrito was seemingly pan-seared in a layer of cheese on the outside of the tortilla, making it hot and greasy to grab and eat. Overall, cool ambiance and good drinks but not-so-great service or food. read more

Uptown 66 - Beer and a margarita - Mexican Near Me - Hallandale Beach, Florida

We went there for a quick stop before having dinner somewhere else. We had a drink and a bite from the HH. I ordered a spicy margarita; all margaritas are made with Jose Cuervo which is not my favorite but i barely noticed, which was good. We also had the birria taco; it was good and had lots of meat. The place is nice, lots of lighting and the service was good; attentive and fast. I will go back. read more

Uptown has pretty good happy hour specials! The food is tasty and the barilla tacos are so juicy you don't even need the sauce. Drinks were pretty good as well. It's pretty chill, music playing and sports on the screen. Now, service wasn't horrible, but it wasn't great. I'll go back for the food though. read more

Second time coming to this place! Love that they have indoor and outdoor seating. It was such a nice day when I went. I opted to sit outside. It was a little breezy, but the real MVP was a steak burrito. It was so hardy, steak was cooked perfectly! There was even potatoes inside which was so unexpected. Now the real disappointment was the Birria tacos. This has been the next cultural phenomenon. I was so disappointed in the consume tasting like nothing. The shredded steak tasted like nothing and it was like more of a quesadilla. I was not impressed. The churros were amazing. I didn't even get to take a picture of it. Service was great. I went during the afternoon so it was not very busy but definitely a great place to go and check out. I'll give them another try. #ThankMeLater. read more

We stopped by Uptown 66 on our way home from the mall and shared a bunch of dishes, and everything was delicious. We started with the chips and salsa and the elote, the salsa had so much flavor and the tortilla chips were fresh and warm. The elote was really good too and wasn't overly covered in the chipotle mayo sauce, which I appreciated. For our main dishes, we shared the birria tacos (so flavorful and filling) and a chicken burrito, subbing the potatoes for rice. Definitely enough food to share, and the prices were really reasonable for the amount of food you get. Everyone working there was super friendly as well. Overall, a great stop we'll definitely be back! read more

Waitress was horrible. Walking around doing nothing after we order a coke and draft beer. Which took 12-20 minutes to come. We said to our selves the food is probably going to come before the drinks. She finally saw us starring her down and came over to say " oh your still waiting on your drinks". We then watched her open a the cooler fridge grab a bottle of coke and get the draft. I ordered 2 tacos an oxtail taco and a chicken taco, my daughter ordered 3 tacos 2 pork and 1oxtail. A food runner came out and brong a plate with 3 tacos sat them in front of my daughter then 5 minutes later I get a plate with 2 tacos which had some kind of meat deffinitley not chicken. Again waitress no where to be found. Went outside asked hostess for manager and explained to her what was going on. She spoke to manager and waitress (we could see from table) waitress came over and said that the foods comes out together. Not what happened. Explained i dont eat pork which is why I didnt order it and want to know what im eating which clearly isn't chicken. Manager came over explained it was busy and asked what he could Ado for us. We requested the right food and asked for another waitress. ... I get it was a busy night but inside wasn't that busy open tables multiple staff. Our waitress was walking in circles not going to any tables as we watched her waiting for the drinks. And I should have to guess what im eating even if im with other people. If I order a oxtail taco and chicken. Why im I getting pork? read more

Horrible experience on cinco de mayo at 3:30. Dirty bar had to ask to get it wiped. Took 20 minutes to be helped and when it finally turned happy hour they said only La rubia draft beers are $4 no others even though they are promoting this. Good food but horrible vibes and employees. Will never be back. read more

First time at their Hallandale location. It was fantastic! Indoor and outdoor seating and a well placed bar. It was overall casual and spacious. Service was laid back as in the Miami location. I think they had some technical issues today with the PoS that had them a little distracted. The flavors here are amazing. I enjoyed the latter sauces, and flavorful oysters albeit small. The pork Al pastor and mushroom/pear hongos tacos were exceptional. Definitely would come back and recommend. read more

Absolutely positively outstanding! I had the Birria tacos, elote, a dozen oysters for $1 each and two spicy passion fruit margaritas. They have happy hour from 4-7 PM seven days a week. Birria tacos $4, elote $5, half price margaritas $7. I couldn't be any happier. Chareenah was my server. She greeted me with a smile and welcomed me like family. I highly recommend this restaurant. I will be back. read more

Since it opened we wanted to see what it was all about. Decided to go for taco Tuesday deals. At first, I wasn't too keen about the place , seemed like they didn't have their service in order. Waited a few more minutes , and I have to say that our server (Jen Paul ) was very dedicated. Great customer service. The tacos were delicious and the drinks were on point. Definitely we will be back. read more

Uptown has done it again!!! The new location is spacious, stylish, and an instant vibe upgrade. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a truly exceptional team that sets the tone for the whole experience. If you're in the mood for a lively scene, the full bar has sports playing across the wall and an energy that pulls you right in. Walk a bit further and the ambiance shifts into a more refined casual dining space. I kicked things off with the flamed charred oysters and wow... absolute perfection. Smoky, rich, and easily some of the best I've had in South Florida. Then came the Mole and let me say, it's better than any mole I've had anywhere in South Florida. Deep, layered, and beautifully balanced with a hint of spice. Honestly, no need to hop on a plane to Mexico when I can just drive to Hallandale. Uptown isn't just raising the bar for South Florida dining. They took the bar, melted it down, and forged an entirely new standard. If you live within 100 miles of Hallandale and you don't eat here soon, that's a personal choice I can't respect. read more

I saw this on Facebook and I decided to give it a try for lunch. It's in a great location Hallandale Beach Boulevard and Atlantic Shores. There is plenty of free parking available there is also paid parking on the street side. The atmosphere for lunch time was very quiet and the music was just calming. My server was Sanih. She was very pleasant very personable and always smiling willing to assist whatever you needed, very friendly. The food was awesome the chips and guacamole home made very tasty. And the shrimp quesadilla made with love. It was so big and so full of shrimp that I can only half of it. This is a dish you can share. I will definitely recommend this place. Ask for Sanih. read more

Been to the one in Miami before, and seeing that the tacos are very hyped it is justified. On this trip I got the chicken burrito which was a pleasant surprise. The tots in the burrito was crunchy and soft. The chicken was well marinated and season. The chips was freshly made and good. Service was also great, the cashier was patient and explained things for us on the menu. The Ambiance was chill and relaxed we seen a little bit of the game when we sat down. So the overall vibes was a great experience. read more

I've had uptown 66 in my list of restaurants i want to try for a while but never got myself to drive south for it! So when they opened their second location just less than 5 minutes away from me I had to go. The birria tacos are delicious and the perfect portion! The steak burrito has hash brown instead of rice, whoever came up that needs a raise. The guacamole is also a staple and nice to have on the table to put over the tacos! The elote is boiled and is probably the only thing i wouldn't order again. its good but i get so bummed out when its not grilled as it makes a huge difference. Overall Im happy its so close and have been twice in less than a week- seems like its consistently good! Cant wait to keep coming back and enjoying their happy hour. read more

Went there for dinner with my husband and we really enjoyed the food. Everything we ordered was delicious. The quality of food is the same as the original Miami location. The staff was very nice and attentive. I especially recommend the elote and the guac. I am hoping to come back and try their happy hour drinks. The only thing that you have to keep in mind is that this place is a bit pricey but the food was a 10/10 so it's worth it read more

I can't believe it took me so long to visit but I am so grateful I finally made it and so close to me. new to Hallandale comes Uptown66 bringing some of the best Mexican food to Hallandale. My favorite was easily the steak burrito with their amazing potatoes and Guac. Their prices are super fair. Plus they obviously have great tacos, we had the chicken, birria and barbacoa. I'll be thinking about it for days. But you really can't go wrong. pS they have a DJ that visits on some fridays. read more

I guess people in the West Coast shouldn't open a Cuban restaurant, people on the east Coast shouldn't open a Mexican restaurant. This place is a great example of why!. The food was mediocre at best. The burrito was too crisped up . At 1st I thought it was burnt. It had a taste that I still pinpoint what exactly I was eating. Everything in the tortilla was mushy. The music made it sound like a nightclub. Extremely loud and while I enjoy R&B, a Mexican restaurant is not where I figured I'd have my hearing damaged from the music. Lesson learned here...order to go and eat in the car if you'd like to talk to whoever is with you. read more

In typical millennial fashion, I found this place on Instagram. When I heard that they had the best various tacos in the country, I had to give it a try for myself. And let me just say they did not disappoint. The birria tacos were flavorful, and the meat was so tender. It practically melted in your mouth. The spicy passionfruit margarita was divine. I was not a fan of the guacamole though. It lacked flavor and it was a bit too smooth in texture for my liking, but that could just be personal preference as I prefer my guacamole chunky. Overall, I I was very pleased with my experience and I was definitely come back for another round of birria tacos. read more

I have to start this off by saying that I have never liked burritos in my life, but once my boyfriend took me to uptown 66 everything changed. I love their burritos and I can't wait to try the rest of the menu, the service is always very friendly and attentive, and I would also like to point out that the aesthetic of the place is beautiful. It's a really nice place over all I definitely recommend, that is why I have brought almost everyone I know to this place and to this day I haven't heard any complaints only compliments! read more

Uptown 66 - Mexican Near Me - Hallandale Beach, Florida

My wife and I were looking forward to eating here but ended up disappointed by the small portions and limited menu. Before ordering, I asked our waitress--who seemed to be the only one working the tables--about the size of the entrées and appetizers, but she couldn't really answer. Not sure if it was a language barrier, but it wasn't very helpful. I ordered a chicken taco and a barbacoa taco. The chicken taco needed more flavor, though the barbacoa taco was quite tasty. The octopus appetizer was good as well. At one point, I asked for salt and was told they didn't have any, which was surprising. My wife had the beef burrito and thought it was okay. Our bill came to around $60, which felt a bit high for what we received. Overall, between the portion sizes, pricing, and limited menu, I don't think I'll be returning. read more

I randomly stopped by this place because it was one of the only places still open at the time and boy what a find! All the food was so good. Calamari was well seasoned and perfectly cooked, the burrito was one of the best I've had (which says a lot considering i'm from California) with lots if meat and delicious flavor and the churros were some of the best churro I've ever had with such a decadent chocolate -- it reminded me of Spanish style churros with hot chocolate. It was so good, I went back two days in a row! The following night I tried the tiger shrimp super tender and excellently flavored and the quesabirria tacos. Every thing we got was so good nothing less than 4/5 stars. I also got drinks and the margs were also so good, they also have frosés and other yummy cocktails. The staff was also super nice and food came out quick and the vibes and music were so good in there, it makes for a perfect date night! read more

Just prepare to be WOWED First time pop-in for a margarita; first greeting was a beautiful smile & welcome...have you tried our "margaritas?" She asked us. So friendly & welcoming. Order at front counter & they deliver. Easy-peasy. Then she mentioned mushroom tacos . Everything was homemade and delicious. We will definitely come back for the full menu experience. Happy hour 3-7pm $7 Beer & Margaritas $1 Oysters $4 Tacos $5 Chips & Salsa Owner in the kitchen comes out to greet guests. We will be back. read more

Not worth it. Drinks are all ice and nothing to really eat. Even the atmosphere is not great. The guacamole was good. Not enough to go back.

This place is no joke... everything was SO good. These Birria tacos were outstanding. The spicy passions fruit margarita was amazing and the chicken nachos were also so tasty! I am normally not a huge fan of queso on my nachos, but this type of queso was so good and the perfect consistency. We got 2 orders of the Birria tacos (which are 2 for each order), 2 chicken tacos, the chicken nachos, and an order of chips and guac. Everything was so outstanding. This place needs to stay here because now we finally have an authentic and overall amazing Mexican restaurant in the area. We will be back very very soon!!! read more

This place had very appetizing plates. We ordered the Wagyu burger and it was amazing. Skirt steak was cooked to perfection. Iberia taco was mouth watering. But I must say the music playlist was on point. Really good mix of hip hop, Latin, and Pop. Whoever's playlist this is entertained our family of 6. It made us stay longer and order more. We realized it after we left. Regardless, I loved this place. The staff was great. read more

I really wanted to like this place because I love the Miami location. Hands down the best taco spot in the city. But the Uptown 66 in Hallandale just doesn't compare. I'm not even sure if it's under the same ownership. The quality of the food was way off. If this had been my first experience with Uptown 66, I honestly wouldn't come back. I'm definitely never coming back to this location. At the Miami location, the birria tacos are always hot, flavorful, and come with that satisfying cheese pull. The ones I got here were bland, lukewarm, and disappointing. I also ordered a burrito, and it was noticeably smaller than the Miami one. The steak pieces were tiny, and the potatoes were soft and mushy, which made the whole thing one note. In Miami, the burritos are bigger, the steak chunks are generous, and the potatoes are crispy everything just hits better there. Not sure if the smaller portions are due to summer or something else, but this location feels like it's hurting the Uptown 66 name. I gave it three stars only because of how much I love the original spot. Should've been a one star review. Staff was friendly and drinks were solid, but unfortunately, the food didn't hold up. read more

Recently stopped into Uptown 66 in Hallandale's Atlantic Village -- it's in the old Blues Brothers location. It happened to be their opening day when I went, and I wasn't mad at it! I had the shrimp nachos, which had a generous amount of shrimp, and two barbacoa tacos that were packed with flavor. For dessert, I tried the churros. I'm not a big chocolate fan, but the waitress recommended the chocolate dipping sauce, and I actually really enjoyed it. Prices are reasonable, and the staff was very attentive. The music inside was a little loud for my taste, so I sat outside, which was perfect. Overall, one of the best authentic tacos I've had -- I'll definitely be returning! read more
