What a disappointment! There are so many wonderful restaurants in the area, and we we wasted a meal at Pablo's when we could have eaten somewhere else! First, our waiter spoke in broken English (on purpose???) so we had trouble understanding what he was saying. We went there for lunch, and I wanted fajita's and my wife wanted taco's. How... more

First, let me say that I really like Mexican food so I'm a tough judge, but this wasn't even as good as fast food. We were here for lunch last week. When we first walked in, the smell was awful....like someone was getting a perm in the kitchen so we opted for outdooring dining. The courtyard out back is very... more

Saw a lot of good reviews for this restaurant but we were disappointed. I liked the salsa but that was about it. I had tamales which actually tasted horrible and my husband had the enchiladas verde. They were better than the tamales but that is not saying much. The service was ok but no one was very friendly. Would not... more

Live here in Western Nassau County. ALWAYS go here for Mexican food. Haven't found anything close that does what they do. Friendly, attentive and good service. Maybe a little pricey but well worth it!! more

Some of the best tasting Mexican food you will get anywhere. Ate at lunch and the portions were huge. Margaritas were expensive ($35 per pitcher for the top shelf) but very tasty and potent (not a lot of mix). Authentic staff who were very attentive. A great place to go when you just can't eat any more fish! more

Great food

You can choose a number whatever at any Mexican restaurant, but it's something special when you do it here. Very good food here. Ate lunch here and the entree was way too much for me at lunch. No problem of course, just had to eat a smaller supper later. I'll be back. more

The food here was not the big problem, the service was! It was actually pretty weird because I asked for sour cream and when the server finally brought it he put it down and his finger was stuck smack in the middle of it. He pulled it out and it is all white on the end and then he hides... more

My husband and I decided to do Mexican food while in FL! We actually stumbled upon this restaurant in the "downtown historic shopping area." When we got there we were greeted by two young boys who said, "Welcome to Pablo's." They brought out our chips and salsa. We found out later that they were his son and his nephew. The... more
