I was long overdue for a solo date 🥰 I love spending time with the girlies and going out with company but once in a while I enjoy my own company too. La Ola Nest is nice and quiet for solo dates and the food is 10/10. The staff is so sweet too 🥹🥹 @🦋moe_💗 @CHEF EVER ❤️🦋🥰 @La Ola Nest Restaurant Mutare #laolarestaurantmutare #mutare #solodate #placestoeat #restaurant

Reviews Summary

La Ola Surfside Restaurant offers a festive beachfront experience with live music and great Tex-Mex dishes.

While some note it's a food truck setup, the beachfront location and entertainment make it a popular spot for enjoying sunsets and supporting local recovery efforts.

From Bonita Bill's to Doc's Beach House: Our top 5 beach bars

As soon as you cross the bridge onto Fort Myers Beach, you’re in fun beach-bar land with Yucatan Beach Stand, Nervous Nellie’s and Wahoo Willie’s to name a few. It’s hard to pick a favorite but we will go with La Ola. This on-the-beach and in-the-sand venue may look vastly different than it did before Hurricane Ian, but the vibe is fully intact.

Yucatan Beach Stand and La Ola Surfside both looked way too rowdy for us. However, Felipes Mexican Taqueria had some outdoor seating available so we dined here.
