In my opinion, I feel like this place is just okay. The food all comes out at different times, so you may not be eating with your party members at the same time. The fish tacos were okay, but they don’t taste like cod despite what the menu says. The brisket quesadilla was good, the cheese to meat ratio was off. The black beans were very good though. The service isn’t that friendly. I felt like I had to flag down several people to get a table and then to get silverware.
They also add 18% gratuity automatically, so you need to pay attention if you want to add more or reduce the tip. I feel like it’s misleading because if you aren’t paying attention, you can end up double tipping. Just feels a bit shady and dishonest.
I likely would not eat here again.

The fish tacos were great. This place is pretty cool to stop in for a quick bite. You can pick and choose your view. There is seating on the patio where you can see the beautiful Florida 🌴 palms and enjoy the fresh air. You can sit inside and be intrigued by the decor. There is an option to dine in the area next to the food court and entry to this wonderful mall. Atmosphere is good for people watchers. The cost is inexpensive.

I’m a local and I had to kill some time at the mall while my car was getting serviced nearby so I decided to stop here for lunch because I wanted to sit down and relax. I had to wait a little bit to get seated as there were people ahead of me but it wasn’t too long of a wait. At fish glance the decor is very cute and quirky and very on theme for Catrina. Chips and salsa were brought out almost immediately. Salsa is very good, tangy and not spicy at all. I ordered guacamole as a starter and it was very creamy and had good flavor. Nothing was spicy yet it had those Mexican flavors we all look for and love. For my main I ordered the barbacoa tacos. They were delicious. Lots of meat and very moist, the morita sauce was amazing. I ordered the hibiscus mezcalita and that was very good too and packed a good punch, I even had to order a hibiscus agua fresca to cut it down. Although The agua Fresca (hibiscus) tasted like the powdered mix I get from the store. All in all it was a good meal and I’ll definitely rerun again. The margarita shot was super strong too.

Soon as you walk in, you want to dance. The passionfruit margarita was amazing and so is the chicken enchiladas! Luisa was my server and she was so attentive. I will definitely be back!

Paula was a great server, with a big smile and a friendly personality. We did not have to wait to be seated. The food was good, for me it needed more salt.
All and all a good restaurant with a great atmosphere and very good service.
