out of 5 starstolerable at best by Eaglerider on 3/22/2012 via Citysearch
what gets the extra star is the bar, chips, salsa... that's all. The food is passable but it's like most of the restaurants around the Space Coast area - many server FROZEN FOOD. El Tucan is no different. What gets me is ok maybe…
Not what they used to be...... by justdafacts on 2/22/2012 via Citysearch
We have dined at this restaurant ever since they were located in a Publix shopping center on North Courtenay Parkway in Merritt Island. The food has always been very good as well as the service, but we have noticed some things our last…
Excellent! by jeepfan76 on 2/26/2011 via Citysearch
My wife and I go here 1 or 2 times a month. Great food, portions, and staff. My wife loves the atmosphere. I love the pollo picante. Great drinks, too.
El Tucan--Great Food & Friendly Staff by El Toucan fan on 2/5/2011 via Citysearch
My husband and I have been enjoying El Tucan since the restaurant was located in the plaza on the corner of North Courtenay and Crockett where Publix used to be also. We always enjoy their dishes! I think we've tried just about…
Where were the spices? by mysterydiners on 5/30/2010 via Citysearch
My companion and I were very dissapointed. He ordered the "house specialty", some kind of dish consisting of overcooked mysterious pieces of chicken in a funky minimal buttery-gravy like sauce with "fresh" (??) garlic, and tossed onto the…
Horrible!!! by f8hfull on 2/6/2010 via Citysearch
Not authentic in the least. Trying to figure out what folks like about this place, it was very crowded on an early Saturday evening. It was clean, decent service, low prices, BUT come on!! If you know what authentic mexican food taste…
El Tucan by Sue C on 11/17/2008 via Insider Pages
Best Mexican food around. Chips and salsa are the best. The combination meals are great. The taco salads are wonderful, and lets not forget the margarita. Great place.

Best Authentic Mexican Food Around by merbicide on 9/4/2008 via Citysearch
I have eaten at El Tucan nearly 50 times. During my wifes pregnancy, I tried everything on the menu and it was all wonderful. The food here is very authentic and cooked with a lot of flavor and spice, making everything very tasty. They…
WORST MARGARITA EVER!! by schwartzbwithu on 6/10/2006 via Citysearch
Service was good. Tortilla chips are really greasy. Three pepper rated salsa has too much salt in it. Rice was dry and appeared to be a little over cooked or was allowed to sit out without a lid on the pan, thus allowing the moisture to…
Great Place! by trjones1352 on 4/9/2006 via Citysearch
The food, drinks and staff are all great! This restaurant is very popular and rightly so.
Not as great... by Sharlie O. on 3/16/2006 via Judy's Book
as people in the area told us it was...we went to have lunch. Horrible service, horrible food...I took friends there who were visiting, and I was soo embarrassed. Later in the day everyone was sick...the day was ruined being stuck there…
Excellent food and service by sgtpreston on 3/6/2006 via Citysearch
Chips are slightly greasy, but they are warm, and the salsas are delicious! The food is wonderful, but as others have stated, the decor is MINIMAL...at best. This is a polpular place and you can expect a wait to dine here. All in all, my…
Very Good Restaurant by wflintstone on 1/17/2006 via Citysearch
Food selection is very good, plan to wait as they never open before 5PM. Chips are fresh but often greasy. Many of the other dishes are terrific!
Surprisingly Good! by redmaxx on 10/2/2005 via Citysearch
This looks like a franchise Don Pablo style place, where everything would be safely standard and monotonous. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find it very good! We asked for extra-hot salsa - and did we get it! And the fresh from…
one of the better by thecastro69 on 3/28/2003 via Citysearch
this resturant has its pros and cons. one default that i found was that it is in a shopping plaza, but at the same time you could do your shopping while you wait for yoor take out order.
Awesome!!!!!!! by matthorner on 8/8/2002 via Citysearch
Best Food, Best Service, Best Everything! You must go! You won't be sorry!
