Just had lunch with my Mom at EPAZOTE Mexican for the 1st time. What a great find! Food was fresh & well prepared. The service outstanding and chef Hugo was a doll. Love that it's in the Imperial Point area and close to home. We had shrimp & fish tacos, and also shared a chicken taco. Followed by churros with caramel sauce. I also loved the Hibiscus & Watermelon juice drinks...YUM!!

Absolutely amazing experience at Epazote. I have been in search of an authentic Mexican restaurant and I have finally found it. My girlfriend who is Mexican enjoyed it so much while we were there was saying we are coming back. The food was on point and the wait staff were so friendly and nice. We got the Horchata, chicken verde tamales, sopa de tortilla, Chilaquiles with steak and Esquites. Highly recommend!

Excellent customer service from Karen! The food is very tasty and fresh. I especially enjoyed my favorite — steak tacos! From the decor to the food, it truly feels like you’re in Mexico.

This restaurant truly is a gem of Ft. Lauderdale! The food is delicious, the service is fabulous, and the atmosphere is vibrant, just like its owners! The shimp bajo tacos are what selected, and the shimp was cooked perfectly and the toppings and sauce were delectable! I am so glad that I found this place.

This place was absolutely amazing! Came here just because of the reviews. We love hole in the walls, and this is a diamond in the ruff. Food, service, and atmosphere was amazing! Highly recommend. I got the Tampiquena w/ carne asada, enchiladas, rice and beans. You have to try the Mole sauce! It was out of this world! My wife got the spicy red sauce enchiladas which was also amazing. The mango margarita was flavorful and also strong. We also had their chicken nachos, street corn and tamale. We will definitely be coming back!
