Tommy Bahama's Drink of the Month – Strawberry Mojito

Site Staff El Paseo, Restaurants

"Life is One Long Weekend™" mindset turns the island experience from wishful thinking to a tasty reality with a cosmopolitan collection of dishes inspired by diverse getaways to Jamaica, Barbados and beyond. Signature dishes, such as their award-winning Trinidad Tuna tempt the palate while an array of cocktails, beer and wine work to quench your thirst.

Located at the dazzling Gardens on El Paseo, upstairs from Tommy Bahama’s Retail Emporium, this colonial plantation-style tropical café is strictly the real deal.

Stop by any time and enjoy the island lifestyle. Savor the chef’s eclectic, tropical fare or just unwind with one of our many delicious cocktails.

The second-story lanai dining rooms offer breathtaking desert sunset views or dine al fresco on the spacious patio.

Dinner reservations are recommended, but walk-ins are welcome.
