   Reliably good food and service. The music on the patio was very loud which made it hard to have a conversation.

   The food and service are consistently good here. You know how you take your out-of-town friends to your favorite place and then disaster strikes. Well, never happened to us even once at Tamarindo! People pickup our check and thank us for taking them there. The Elote, Guac, Zucchini tacos are a must have. The Molcahete if you’re into seafood.

   The food here always comes through. Even though they are spicy (to me) we always get the elote spears. They are incredible. I love their chips - thin and crispy and the seasoning is 100% - the salsa tasted different last night and not sure what they did, but I prefer it the original way. I think the ingredients were the same, just different amounts. We also shared the ceviche and the shrimp raja enchiladas. It says the enchiladas are spicy, but they aren’t at all. Just very flavorful and if you get them - upgrade with the fig mole sauce. It takes everything to another level. The server was perfect. Super attentive and kept my tea refilled without any hesitation. She was really friendly, too. We sat in the back by the bar and it was a bit quieter back there so I think that’s the best place to sit if you’re inside. There was a man with his golden retriever at the bar and they brought out dog bowls for the dog to eat. That might not be everyone’s jam, but it sure was mine. Any place that welcomes well behaved dogs is A+, 10/10 in my book. Everyone that was there was in love with the dog.

   Our server was very attentive and personable, plus food which as pictured included the elote spears, oaxacan chicken mole, and grilled shrimp tacos were phenomenal! For sure coming back soon

   The food was a little pricey, but delicious. Great drinks! Service was quick and we really liked the atmosphere! Dogs are allowed on patio with a dog menu offered. We will be back.
