Lona Cocina Tequilera
at the Westin – Google Review
If food were colors, Lona would be golden!
First, the views from the patio can’t be denied—you’ll watch the sky transform into a caramelized sunset that sets the tone for everything that follows. The decor is “interesting eclectic” with an artistic lean—curated, comfortable, and everything coordinated just right.
My margarita? WOW—titularly strong! If I could accurately describe it, I’d call it lime sweet and savory-spiced perfection. Not too sugary, not too tart—just balanced brilliance in a glass. After one you’ll be saying: “¡y un poco fuerte!”
The food at Lona is modern, fresh, and some of literally the hottest I’ve ever been served—impressive, and they made it look easy … At Lona, the crackling rice and sizzling hot entrée had me at “hello.” The chicken tacos were perfectly seasoned (with the fresh guacamole side ordered—yum) while my extra fiery habanero sauce made the meal a red-hot remembrance in all the right ways.
Service was timely even though the “see and be seen” crowd was in full force—always a testament to a well-run operation when they can handle both the buzz and the quality. (And they didn’t flinch when they were originally going to put me in the dining room but I had to pass because of the sheer playful bastion of small children in action—ok, cool, but, not on my much needed “night out.”)
This is elevated coastal dining done right. The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach delivers here—Lona isn’t just a hotel restaurant, it’s a destination worth the trip on its own merit.
Invite an outgoing friend for an exciting culinary experience (get a babysitter) shake off the winter doldrums and celebrate! Make a reservation and time it for sunset. Fair warning: if fine tequila, habanero hot sauce, and pickled onions aren’t usually on your list of daily “do’s” (they’re not on mine), you may want to consider how to put out that fire in advance. Your taste buds (and your Instagram) will thank you!

This was the first time dining there, we went for the brunch experience and let me tell you!!! From beginning to end this was an AMAZING experience – the food was so delicious, flavorful, tender. The drinks were strong and flowing and the server, Nelson was above and beyond. His service alone would make me come back – he was on top of everything making sure we got our drinks in before the cut off time. His singing, INCREDIBLE! I would go back over and over and recommend this place to everyone!

Excellent Mexican food. The crab lump meat guacamole was delicious. Not expensive. Fair prices considering you sit right across ft Lauderdale Beach. Excellent view sitting outside. Great drinks as well Sangria was a hit. Waitress showed excellent service.
Definitely would eat here again.

Beach patio has gorgeous views but the live dj plays music that is exceedingly loud!!! Dining inside isnt as beachy but its much quieter and the decor is well done.
Came for the endless brunch and cocktail which is a buffet/fixed menu.
The food is awesome. No complaints about the food.
The decor is nicely done and enjoyable.
My main critique is the service: overall the servers (there were 2), were great, friendly and present. My disappointment was when I requested tequila for the Bloody Mary (bloody maria). Without pleasantries and without asking the bartender, the server plainly said NO. And I was surprised because the menu consisted of endless margaritas (tequila!!!) and bloody Mary’s.
Did it really truly matter whether the tequila was used for a margarita or a bloody mary?!?!
Its just odd that I was not allowed to get the drink and equally odd that the server didnt put on a happy face and “ask the bartender”.
Will I go back? Sure.
And yes id recommend Lona to others.
Just hope service picks up because this is truly odd. Ft Lauderdale has plenty of dining options who gladly make bloody Marias for the same/equal value of a bloody mary.

Mexican restaurant with a nice view, but not a good experience overall. The service was extremely slow—I waited a long time just to place my order. I had to go to the host myself and then ask a waiter again just to get someone to come to the table. When the food finally arrived, it honestly wasn’t worth the wait. The tacos were below average and disappointing. The place itself is beautiful and has a great view, but unfortunately the food and service didn’t live up to it.

This place was nice once we went back to the bar inside. Outside on the patio music is so loud you can’t talk. You do have good street and water views from the patio but loud music. The food was very tasy great fajitas and fresh guacamole. No frozen drinks here but mix drinks are available. Our server was very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are clean has well the rest of the restraunt clean. Go here give it a try $60 lunch for two.

The food was good, the beach view is beautiful.
Ysa was one of the ones that was bussing the tables but she instantly as we walked in started taking care of us and brought us chips and salsa as well as fresh ice cold water.
Eventually….. our server showed up then dropped the food but we didn’t see him again, Ysa did walked by and checked on us, i asked her for the bill and then that was the only other time we saw him.
Would probably come back just for Ysa.

Nelson was amazing! He made my boyfriend’s birthday such a memorable day! We will definitely be back. If you haven’t been to their brunch, you should definitely go. Food and drinks were top notch!

We ate dinner and breakfast here. At dinner we had the shrimp tacos and the al pastor tacos, guacamole, chips & salsa, and the fried plantains. Everything was really good and fresh. Breakfast was two eggs over easy with thick cut bacon sourdough toast and a side off fruit. Once again Everything was really good and fresh. Dinner was a 7:30 pm and was busy, but no waiting for outside seating. Breakfast was at 7:15 am and not busy on Sunday at all. We got seated and served immediately! Would eat here again when we’re in the area.

Great Mexican food and atmosphere right along the beach. I had Jorge’s Lobster Quesadilla and it was fantastic. It was a hearty portion so I made two meals out of it. Make sure to request an extra side of chipotle aioli. It was fire!
