Hightide Burrito & Bar

I'm from Texas so I have to have a TexMex fix from time to time. Lucky for me, this Hightide Burrito Bar is within walking distance from my home.....even better, they have a very nice patio so I can take my dog with me!! In the hotter months, they have fans and in the cooler months they have heaters so the patio is almost always a nice place to sit and relax. It's covered as well, so rain is not an issue!I enjoy their happy hour margaritas (be careful, they are potent) - very delicious. And, as a creature of habit, I have to get the queso and the jalapeno poppers every time I go!! This place is tucked away by a marina in Ortega and doesn't get too crazy busy so the service is always good, and I never have to wait too long to get my order. While this is one of my favorite local places to relax, I'm rating the venue with a four because it's not the best TexMex in the area and I'm dying for a cheese enchilada with chili con carne!!

Cool spot for some good food and tasty cocktails.They have a nice outdoor dining area that's perfect when the weather is nice out. Outdoor dining area also has access to the bar.Service has been fine on all my visits and the staff is friendly and accomodating. They do get busy sometimes so be patient.When you're done here, check out Grace Note Brewing next door :)

Love this place! We ordered the Birria Dilla and the El Jefe Burrito. The chips there are perfectly homemade and seasoned. The dilla was nothing short of amazing cheeziness and the sauce to dip it in? Meah chef's kiss. The burrito was filled with steak and shrimp and had a nice horseradish kick to it.

Wow I really liked this place! It had it all for me, the location is great sitting out on the patio right near the water, perfect weather! Our server was excellent! She handled our large group with no problems, split the checks easy peasy! Lastly the food! I thought it was really good! Like real food, the smoked wings were big and tasted great... the jalapeno poppers were delicious wrapped in bacon and smoked! I tasted a bite of flautas delicious! Would love to return!

Had a blast on a beautiful Sunday afternoon with some fellow Yelpers. The burrito and tacos were sooooooo tasty and the drinks on point!!! It was great seeing everyone and hanging out.

This USED to be my fave place when I moved to Jax in 2020. We went every month without fail. About 2 years ago we stopped going because they decreased the size of their food by at least 25% and were charging more. They used to give unlimited free chips and salsa and they changed to just one order of free chips. We always got the El Jefe burrito and it barely had any meat in it. We stopped going. Last month my husband got take out here with a friend and he said the burritos were better. Tonight I said let's give it another shot because the weather is gorgeous and we truly loved the atmosphere outside. Here are the reasons I'll never go back here again:1) My husband ordered his beer and they just brought the can. $7 can for a local IPA. We asked if they had it on draft. She didn't know. It took her 10 mins to find out they didn't and then to bring a glass. The waitress was so confused about this request for a glass.2) I ordered a beer with our food order. It didn't come until I was halfway through my burrito.3) No more free chips. Not even one order. It's terrible to start with unlimited free chips and go to zero free.4) No prizes on the menu. How in the world do we know what they'll charge us? I guess they change prices daily?5) My husband ordered the chicken dinner that was available Thursday to Sunday. We went Friday at 5pm. They ran out but our daughter had chicken, rice and beans so not sure what they ran out of. He said he'll take the same burrito as me. His didn't arrive so we shared mine. We finished and his still hadn't arrived.6) The waitress just tells you the total without giving any receipt. When asking to see it she scrolls quickly through the device in her hand to show us.It's a shame how downhill this place went. The atmosphere is just so nice but with the terrible service and issues we have had, we won't be going back. If you can look past the issues then it's worth a shot.

I love high tide! This location in particular is awesome. They are right on the beautiful Ortega river, they have outdoor seating and a generous size outdoor and indoor bar (as well as regular seating). The stand out for me is their happy hour which runs from I think 4-6pm if I'm not mistaken? It has lots of amazing choices for food and drinks. We tried the nachos which grilled chicken as well as the beef empanada and it was *chefs kiss*. Their margs are strong, staff is fun and we love we can bike here from our house!

Love this casual little Mexican restaurant on the St John's River. Great outdoor seating, with seating inside if it gets too hot! Today I had a Rum Runner to drink and a steak Quesadilla (added fajita vegetables). It was Brandon's cheat day, so he got the Burrito and a street taco. Very delicious! We've had quite of a few of the different tacos-again-delish!#exploreandtravelwiththekirklands

Terrible service and very average food. Food was pretty gross overall. Server was atrocious, with massive attitude. Consistently got our order wrong, beers never arrived, salsa went missing, street corn was inedible and apple fritter burrito was cold. When we asked about these things we're told that's just how it is. Also to top it off, got charged an 8 person gratuity which meant automatically added 20%, despite having a 1 year old and two toddlers that didn't even eat. Would not recommend for a family or meet up place.Really the only redeeming feature of this place was knowing it had finally been evacuated from my body.

We went on a Sunday around 2-ish and sat at the bar. The mimosas and sangria were $6 and potent. The margaritas were very good and were $10. Less expensive during the weekly happy hour.Everything was very fresh. Chips were $2.50, not free like other places, but it came with 3 diff sauces; mild, medium, and hot. We took leftovers home.The burrito and fish taco were very good. There are no prices on the menu - you need to use the QR code. I guess this is so they can raise the prices without re-printing the menu. :)Will be back.
