Salsas Cocina Titusville — Restaurant in Titusville

Update The last two times that I've eaten here, the food and service has been fabulous. I guess the owner wasn't lying when he/she said that they'd try and do better. This is now my favorite Mexican restaurant. The food is great. The service is great. My only two complaints are: 1. the music is too loud. It makes it impossible to talk. 2. More vegan friendly options would be nice. I've eaten at this restaurant many times and usually it's good. However, last night my family and I went there and the service was terrible. The waitress was very nice and she claimed to be super busy, but I worked as a waitress for years and the restaurant was somewhat busy but not THAT busy. W

We were seated right away and a few minutes later someone dropped off the chips and salsa. They didn't say a word. They just slid the containers on the table and walked away. About 5-10 minutes later a waitress came by and took our drink orders. We had to ask for napkins and salt and pepper. We should've thought to ask for silverware.

Things were okay for a bit. We got our drinks and she took our order. We ran out of chips and salsa. No big deal there. When a person brought our food we asked for more chips and salsa and silverware because as fun as it might've been to eat burritoes and empanadas with just our hands, we really weren't in that kind of mood.

He brought us the chips and salsa but no silverward. We thought he would come back with the silverware, but no such luck. We waited. And waited. Finally, my niece got the attention of another waiter and he brought us some silverware. The first guy did eventually come back with the silverware. I guess he had to run to the store to buy more or something. That's the only reason I can think of as to why it took so long.

The food was decent as usual. The waitress did manage to stop by off and on. And then came the bills. She brought the checks and we wait and waited and waited. It was utterly ridiculous. I finally changed my mind and left cash instead of using my credit card because I got tired of waiting. We were standing to leave when she finally came back to the table. I will never go back there on a Saturday night because obvsiously, the employees can't handle more than two...

Two and a half stars ... My wife and I ate supper at Salsa’s at Titus Landing, Saturday night, January 8th, 2022. Before you read any further, keep in mind that I lived in Texas for many years and traveled extensively out west. I ate a wide variety of Tex-Mex and Mexican foods. The restaurant is new and very nice. Our waitress was attentive, efficient, courteous and respectful. We gave her a nice tip. The food was prepared quickly, accurately and came out on smoking, hot platters. I ordered steak fajitas, and my wife ordered chicken fajitas. The portions were generous and the fajitas were accompanied by yellow rice, refried beans, sour cream and guac. There were hot tortillas on the side. I ordered a Bloody Mary. If you think you hear a “but” coming, here it is: the kitchen had been very, very timid with seasonings. As far as we could tell, no salt had been used in preparing our meal and there was no salt on the table. I couldn’t tell if the beef or the chicken had been seasoned in any way. Normally fajita meats have been marinated and are very flavorful. Our fajitas were good, just not Mexican or Tex-Mex flavored. The guac was OK but also very bland except for too much lime juice. I think I could detect a bit of MSG in the fajitas. I don’t object to MSG but it doesn’t replace salt. Now, the Bloody Mary. It was simply unacceptable. I only drank half of it (this has never happened to me and a Bloody Mary). It tasted as if someone went to Publix and bought a bottle of Mr. and Mrs. T’s Bloody Mary mix, poured it over some ice, put in too much lime juice, waved a vodka bottle over it and called it done. There was no garnish of any kind, the rim was not salted or spiced, no discernable alcohol flavor… It cost $9. Very disappointing. I will eat at Salsa’s again, I always give a new restaurant a second or third chance, and we did enjoy the fajitas, they just weren’t really fajitas. You should also try Salsa’s you will probably really like it. I’m just a tough judge when it comes to...

This is a relatively new restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Service is usually good to very good. Our latest visit was to meet old friends. We had a good meal and enjoyed some good conversation afterwards. Update 3 June 2023 The above review is still good but I had a bad experience at dinner there this evening that requires an update. I am allergic to onions and have been since my early thirties. It is really a pain going out to dinner especially at a Mexican restaurant where so many of the meals have them in the recipe. This usually means I have to order something like tacos that are built to order. Our waitress Katie helped me with a new menu item, Puffy Mahi Tacos. I was assured that they could build them without onions and I asked that they substitute shredded lettuce. When they arrived, they clearly were made with onions and I sent them back immediately. They returned in just a few minutes without Visible onions. I was surprised how quickly they came back and noted that they did not have the substituted lettuce. I lifted up the fish to find small bits of onion. I picked the last few off and ate the tacos. Based on timing of the return of the meal and the onions underneath, I believe they just removed the onions and sent them back out. Our waitress was upset with this and said that she would have a word with the kitchen. She was very good about the whole thing. To add insult to injury, my wife ordered a Salsa Quesadilla without onions but it came with them. She can eat onions but expected leftovers so ordered hers without onions so we could both eat them later. The order was placed with the appropriate notes so I feel the kitchen dropped the ball. Food allergies are real, the kitchen needs to do better and management needs to get on top of their operation. I dropped the overall score by one star and the food down to two stars. Their food is generally good to very good and service normally very good to excellant. They gave themselves a black eye...
