What MsIdea doesn't like about Dean's South Of The Border:
I ordered food to go. I liked the atmosphere while I waited and was thinking of going back on some night to have a drink and enjoy the music. However, the food didn't do it for me. I ate 1 taco and incorporated the other 2 into a dish that I made, which was far superior than what I received. View all feedback. What Graham Diplock likes about Dean's South Of The Border:
This is a classic SW FL cantina. The service is good and the food is better than it needs to be. Thank god we still have places that allow smoking in the outdoor seating areas! For all the haters that complain about the smoking, go back to your homes and hide under your bed while you wait on your 12th COVID booster. Don’t bring children to an adult bar. View all feedback.
