Hibiscus bagel & café flamingo — Restaurant in Cabo Velas

This restaurant serves the best banana bread and wraps I've ever had!! We ordered a Caesar Wrap, Crispy Chicken Wrap, and a Lebanese Wrap. I also ordered a Frozen Chai Latte and it was the best too!!! The food is really delicious. We really loved the Caesar and Crispy Chicken wrap and ordered more a second time. The restaurant itself is a very small shop and the sitting area is outside. The only issue we had was wait time. It typically took an hour to an hour and a half to receive our food but they provided complimentary banana bread if the food was taking too long. That was a very nice gesture from the owner. I do understand they have limited staff but they also receive many orders due to how delicious the food is. The first time we sat down and ate the wraps, they were quite large. When we got them for takeout, they weren't as big. I suggest sitting at the restaurant for a better portion side. There is a small amount of parking, typically close to the street or on the hill. Might be better to walk there. It was also near a bunch of hotels on the same street, so it was convenient for us to buy food from there. We also noticed many people were repeat customers since the owner is very nice and provides really good food. Give it a try if you're in Playa Flamingo but make sure you have enough time to wait...

Tried this spot on our first morning. Lines can be long. Waited in line to place our food and drink order. Noticed how people who ordered after us were receiving their food before us. Waited a little over an hour and still no food. The man who took our order came out to let us know that they lost our order and to please be patient. The two plates of food finally came out 20 minutes apart. Food tasted pretty good but not worth the wait.

Ok. We didn’t learn our lesson. We tried it once again because of proximity to our VRBO. Our group of 8 had to sit at two separate tables due to lake of sizable tables. Not a problem. My table ordered 20 minutes before the second table and guess who received their food first. Not my table. They came out and said that they mixed up the order of the tickets! Possible but come on?!? Plates of food on both occasions come out when they are done cooking them and not all at the same time. Kinda annoying when you are watching someone at your table eat while you are hungry and then the ones who finished first have to wait and watch you eat. The place truly has potential and if you are extremely patient and are the type who can rationalize poor performance away do to culture or whatever you will enjoy the eclectic...

I'm seriously disappointed. I've been coming here for years and when I saw the place expanded and the menu expanded I was very hopeful. Let me add I'm vegan and it's difficult to find vegan food. This place has some very good vegan options. But today I ordered something new from the menu a Poké bowl. I took it to go and when I got home, it was literally a scoop of rice Two slices of unseasoned, tofu, tomatoes, and edamame beans, some carrots and pineapple no seasoning. Nothing not even salt and pepper in the bag. Usually I stay right near the beach. So I would've gone back and I'm sure the owner would've fixed it up. Because he's super cool that way, but unfortunately I'm staying far from the beach and this is the only meal I have for the day for my budget, hence why I'm seriously disappointed some salt and pepper or soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, something. And my cookies were hard as a rock and normally they're...
