FireWheel Daiquiri Cafe — Restaurant in Garland

Walked in to the place and wasn’t greeted.Although you can take the daiquiris to go we decided to eat in. We sat ourselves and realized there was no server but noticed everyone was lining up at the bar for orders so we got in line. My husband wanted tenders but they were out so we ordered wings tried the stingin garlic flavor which was some of the best flavored wings I’ve had. (Pictured))The fries were hot and seasoned and very good. We ordered the mozzarella sticks which was ok and they didn’t have any marinara to go with. Ordered 2 frozen Daiquiris the Garland house special and the Purple Rain. Both drinks were very strong and flavorful. (No pics of the drinks because the 20 oz drinks were served in stylophone cups) I was really impressed with the way they cooked, seasoned and flavored the food and how good the drinks were especially seeing that the service wasn’t great. They had one guy working the Bar another tall black guy dressed in street clothes had no idea he worked there walking around and setting menus out and took our trays when we were done eating. And I believe I saw one cook back there cooking the food I almost think the cook was the one who served us our food! All things considered I would like to go back because we frequently visit Firewheel it’s our neighborhood hangout to shop & eat. Upon our next visit I wonder if we will be greeted?! Maybe be a bit more informative or have a hostess so patrons can identify who the staff is or put out a sign saying “seat yourself” or “orders taken at the bar” There was literally no one there who gave us any direction or suggested drinks or even what food items to order. Nevertheless we will give this place a second try because the food and drinks were actually really good. This place seem to have a good vibe and the same guy who took our trays from the table was doubling as the DJ playing some of my favorite R&B music. Hopefully the owner or manager reads this review because we’ll...

I just went there with my 11 year old son, we were shopping and we needed a drink. I order a pina colada and he order a blue raspberry daiquiri, obviously thinking this is non alcoholic drinks cause usually they will ask if you want it virgin or with alcohol and since they didn’t I assumed they were virgin specially cause the guy literally gave my baby the drink. He had some and immediately said it had alcohol and I was like it’s impossible and had a sip and it was pure vodka literally. I ask the server, if it had alcohol and he said yes, I was speechless for a couple of seconds and I told him my son was 11 and he said ; oh so he doesn’t want it? I was about to slap him honestly. I asked for a refund …. Totally inappropriate the guy had no problem serving alcohol to a minor, not even a teenager I mean my son looks his age so there was no excuse. I should have called police and...

Attended a Fit With Freda line dancing event here, & the atmosphere was awesome. It was high energy & a great crowd. Since it is a daiquiri shop, kids are allowed, but they weren't a bother. I had the fish basket, & it was very good! The dauquiri caused me to sit out a few dances. They are not stingy eith the alcohol! I had the pina colada & it was soooo good. The area where we danced wasn't very big, but it worked out & everyone seemed to have a good time. I'm always up for supporting small businesses, & I will definitely visit again.

Line dancing classes are on Thursday nights, 7 PM, & it's a good time! Depending on the day you visit, parking can be a hassle, so get there early. Parking on Thursday nights has been...
