Reviews
This restaurant doesn’t take reservations, which is fine. Just be prepared to wait if you show up at peak times. What’s NOT fine is that no matter how long the wait actually is, the hostess tells everyone 15-20 minutes. Today’s wait, after being told 15-20, was actually 30 minutes. People in the waiting area were getting heated. The last time I was here (a couple of months ago), the same expectation of a 15-20 minute wait was offered by the hostess; it was actually over 45 minutes to get seated. Just be straight with your customers. Give us a realistic time expectation.
The dining experience starts with great service with a hostess, bartender and wait staff that are courteous, attentive and responsive. On a side note, Wicked Cantina St Pete has live music that compliments the dining experience.
As for food, Wicked Cantina St Pete offers one of the broadest selections for a Tex Mex restaurant. The menu alone is worth working through the various appetizers and entrees. I have personally been working through the menu on numerous visit and t hasn’t disappointed. I would recommend the Blanco queso and chips to start with, don’t forget one of their signature margaritas. Which by the way, even the house margarita on the rocks holds its own. As for entrees, I’d recommend the seafood enchiladas or grouper tacos . They both offer large portions. Now for dessert, you can’t go wrong with with the Key Lime Pie .
The host was pleasant and seated us right away, the server came over in a timely manner and took drink orders and gave us some recommendations on the menu. Ultimately we ordered cowboy tacos and the tex mex bowl. The tacos were mediocre at best and the bowl was terrible. The bowl, first of all is small for an entree, it is in the size of a house salad bowl. This consists of shredded lettuce, tortilla strips, a little ground meat, way too many jalapenos for such a small bowl and two sauces, overkill. There were two small pieces of avocado that I had to remove for having bad spots and no pico as described. This was just an over sauced mess with no substance and definitely not a $16 dinner.
The chips and salsa were good and the server was very good. Not enough of a reason to go back.
The food was excellent from start to finish. The kids’ tacos were a hit—our little one ate so well and loved every bite. My mom had the shrimp tacos and couldn’t stop raving about them. I had the cauliflower and sweet potato tacos, and they were full of flavor and so satisfying. Cauliflower was my favorite!
Overall, a perfect mix of great service, delicious food, and a fun atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!
