Ice House Presents Flores Taquería

I made a lunch reservation a few days prior to going because the last time I went here they were so booked. When I got to the restaurant, it was closed and suddenly I couldn't find the website. The sign said they were on vacation, which is fine but I'm surprised they didn't cancel my reservation or even allowed me to make one in the first place.

Default low rating. I will have to actually experience the restaurant another time. We had confirmed reservations and arrived to find the restaurant closed for vacation. There were several other groups with reservations who arrived when we did.

Tacos Maduros- delicious! Empanadas- The flavor of the filling was lost, just tasted overly fried. Cocktails were watered down. And not much shade on a sunny day- the umbrellas don't tilt so the sun is directly in your face if you sit facing the water at certain times of the day. Staff was friendly.

Intriguing taco concepts and some items were very good. However some things were a complete miss. Guacamole was not blended well and there was one big chunk that was about 3 inches around. Made it hard to share. Sangria tasted like cough syrup. I am a big sangria fan and have been to Spain several times. That was not Sangria. Really syrupy. Uch. I was excited for Ceviche, that was not ceviche. shrimp with no flavor other than lime. Don't recommend the ceviche, Churros had too much sugar on them and the chocolate was basically Hershey milk chocolate pudding, Not all all the dark rich chocolate drink that is served with Churros. I would tell people to take advantage of the unusual tacos and the riverside atmosphere. Beware of the sickly sweet drinks and the guacamole is not blended. One big chunk.

The atmosphere was very nice. Server was helpful, courteous, and professional. The menu could have gluten free selection. We were told when making the reservation that it did. When we arrived we had to compromise. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Thanks to our server. She made the difference!
