Tiki West Raw Bar and Grill in Tavares

Food was good, our server had her mask on, tables seemed to be distanced - felt comfortable!

Great chargrilled oysters and great service!

Best seafood in the area. Oysters, are outstanding, so is the staff

Our Tiki West experience was a mixed bag, unfortunately. The service was, by far, the highlight of our visit. Everyone we spoke to was friendly, fun and helpful. The view of Lake Dora from our table was also quite lovely.The food could not keep up, however. While nothing was bad or poorly prepared, the food was merely ok. Surprising given the care taken to make Tiki West a fun, inviting restaurant and bar.

Both the island burger and mahi mahi burgers are amazing. My boyfriend says it's the best jalepeno poppers hes ever had!

The food and service were excellent

Good food and excellent service in a great location. 4 in our party-- one had steamed shrimp, 2 had burgers, and I had lobster tacos. We all liked our meals. The French fries have a crispy batter and are to die for and I am not really much on fries. We were on a time limit and they were awesome to get us out in a half hour but did not feel rushed. Will definitely return to spend more time.

Great place for some great food and a cold beer

Tried for the first time on Memorial Day. We thought this would be a good option to support a local business during these tough times. Unfortunately, staff was generally unwelcoming and ready to leave even though we arrived an hour prior to their closing time. 30 minutes prior to closing, the busser stood next to our table and grabbed my plate as I was literally trying to dunk my boneless wing into ranch. I’ve never seen something so rude in a restaurant. When I asked why, he scoffed that they were closing up the dish washer. We still left generous tips but it was disheartening to be treated this way for trying to support a local business. Would not recommend and will not be back.

My favorite restaurant in Taveras, love the food although my favorite dish, shrimp and grits, was not up to par this visit. One time out of about 20, I'll try again.

best seafood experance in last 20 years. will be back next week.

The blackened chicken caesar salad wrap is amazing. I pay the upcharge for the sweet potato fries and the cinnamon butter. Their lobster tacos are amazing too!

Great food and service! The truffle lobster mac is VERY good, the grouper is as well. Tonight my hubby got a pound of peel & eat shrimp for $9.99, it was one of their specials this evening. For dessert they had key lime pie and pina colada cheesecake, yum!

Food was slightly above average. Service wasn't great. Once food was delivered they were done with you. Too pricey for us to return there with having a nothing to get excited about experience.

Oysters were amazing! Great service

Food is great but after our 5th time in i can honestly say customer service is not the same for everyone here wield some customers get the A treatment others just get the D, i really thought this was an amazing place but it turns out is time to find a new place

Our server was excellent!!!! As far as fresh seafood it was over cooked.... good atmosphere and cold beer!!

The oysters are good with a changing selection. Some of the best shrimp and grits I’ve ever had. Service is good. Prices are reasonable.

Casual dining, excellent food. We had fried mahi-mahi, mahi-mahi tacos, crab cakes boiled shrimp, fried oysters and oysterson the half shell. Everything was delicious. I was impressed by the oysters especially. The fish was also fresh and well prepared. The service was great. In all my family had a delicious meal. We will be returning.

First time visiting and I'm in love with this place. The best Seafood I've ever had!!! The best and MOST flavorful seafood boil. A very heavenly experience. The atmosphere and location is so comfortable and the staff is incredible. Katie was our server and was very sweet and friendly. Really attentive as well!! On top of our refills and clearing out our tables. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Delicious food, I had 1/2 lb of peel and eat shrimp with a blackened Mahi sandwich and it was excellent. I really like the breaded fries as well.

Location, atmosphere, food, and service was GREAT! One of the favorites on the Tavares waterfront. However, the menu here is outdated.

Awesome night again! Thanks April and staff!

Friendly atmosphere and we love our waitress April.

Love the atmosphere of course but the food was also phenomenal. peel and eat shrimp are actually jumbo and tasty. Ordered two apps and three meals, bill was only 70$ so pretty well priced as well.

We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was fresh and delicious.

The food was good, service was very good. Conch Fritters were very nice. Lobster Mac n cheese was the star! It was delicious. It was pricey. 2 apps, 3 entrees and 3 drinks (sodas, 1 unsweetened tea) $100+.

Texas oysters rocked !!! Bucket perfectly shucked. Crab legs and shrimp done just right.Craft beer was right on time. Premium service.

The menu has a great selection and the food is awesome. The cheese "logs" sticks are an absolute must when you go. They call them cheese sticks, however, they are the size of chicken tenders and are hands down the best I have ever had.

The food is delicious and the service great. Emily always takes care of us. The shrimp and grits will not disappoint... new take on an old favorite. The fried shrimp are always crispy and cooked perfectly. Kudos to the chef! We found this gem in late June and have been back 3 more times.

The seafood chowder tasted homemade and was absolutely delicious! The Maui fish sandwich was also excellent! Tiki bar was clean with a good view and had a friendly staff, bar stools could have been more comfortable but was not a deal breaker! I will definitely be back again!

Amazing place and great food. Definitely try the shrimp and grits. We got it today and it's one of the best things I've had at a restaurant. We've also tried the seafood buckets and loved them as well. This place never disappoints.

We had a great lunch with our friends the sea food was great and fresh the key lime pie was a great way to finish the meal all this with great service thanks 👍👍👍

A small place. Very busy. Great blackened shrimp. Loved how they have hammocks in the bar area by the doors that open to the patio. Great idea for lounging on a nice day.

Fantastic food and service.

delicious food and the service was great you have to try the grilled garlic parmesan oysters

Serve was great, food was excellent, they even remade mine due to it being to spicy for me.Thanks guys

I have only been here for 1.5 years but I will say best seafood here! My wife and I usually get the wings, peel and eat shrimp, along with truffle fries. Great service and great food!!

Was a much better experience than Magnolias. The oysters were large and actually tasty and steamed correctly. The crab was cooked just right and I could actually eat the meat. Restaurant didn't stink or smell at all. Will definitely be back.

Nice bar with outside seating located in tavares. We had appetizers only and to that extent were satisfied. Ambiance is relaxing but furnishings are a bit dated and the place could use some touch ups but all in all we are happy for the experience.

The food was delicious! And Dirk (hope I got his name right) the guy at the bar, is a hoot! Loved it!

Great experience, nice servers, wonderful area, awesome food & drinks! Highly recommend.

Omgoodness! We cannot even put into words the experience we had here. To start with the customer service was absolutely fantastic. The restaurant was clean and they did everything they could to accommodate small and large parties that were waiting to be seated. The food was outstanding! I am not one to jump in and just give five stars, but this little place is well deserving of that and more. The shrimp and grits were the best I've ever had, and I have tried this dish from TN on down. The crab legs were perfectly cooked and flavored. The side dishes were just as tasty as the main meals. This will be out new go to seafood place. You can't even find seafood of this quality on The Coast. Good for you Tiki West, please keep doing what you're doing.

Best raw oysters we have ever had! Top that with ice cold beer and great service.....a must go to!! We will definitely be going back.

Great food and you can look out at the water. Service was great too, thanks to Tom who gave us great attentive service. We had the lobster mac and cheese, which was good mac and cheese but not very lobstery. We also had the dungeoness crab legs and the unicorn fish. Both were very flavorful, fresh and good!

Great food and great service. Had conch fritters, peel and eat shrimp and wings. Cold pitchers of beer.

We were looking at different locations in that area to host an event and also decided to have a lunch here,and food was amazing. Appetizers,main meal,dessert, everything was delicious. Managers also were very friendly and cool. Met one of the owners, guy looked super stressed out lol bathrooms can use some work, there was mirror just laying on the ground in men’s bathroom.

Best seafood in the state. Service was impeccable. Will definitely return . Danny the bartender was the bomb. Thank you guys.

A group of us was there to celebrate my friend's birthdate. Some ordered shrimp, some crawfish, some oysters, etc. The food was very good AND our waitperson Tiffany was AWESOME! There was a small problem and in no time at all ...Tiffany had it taken care of. If you want some delicious seafood ...check this place out!

EVERYTHING is awesome! Great food, nice beach feel to the place & wonderful friendly service. A must go place with family, friends, date etc! Nice bar as well.
