What People Are Saying About Agua Verde Cafe & Paddle Club
The Editor

The Experience – A friendly, simple boat house attached to a small, locally owned Mexican restaurant, Agua Verde offers singles, doubles and triple kayaks. Rentals are on a first-come, first-served basis, so if you're paddling on a sunny Saturday, go early (they open at 10am). Weekday rates are much more inexpensive--you get your third and fourth hours for free. Where to Go? – Agua Verde is convenient for paddling to the waterways of the University's arboretum or the houseboats area on Lake Union. If you have more energy and more time, try an afternoon paddle to Madison Park…

PADDLE CLUB
by nancym206 at Citysearch
ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE service....will NEVER visit or send anyone I know to this business. It's a LONG story but I was treated and somewhat harassed for having a Gift Certificate with NO expiration from 2004 that I finally got the owner to honor.
ALL of my future paddling on the Lake will be with NW-OUTDOOR Center. WAY more professional and HAPPY to see you.
- Cons: POOR SERVICE

Good food, Great deck dining in Summer.
by dnsd2008 at Citysearch
I have been here a few times, always in Summer, and it has always been crowded. Tacos Bacalao (fried fish tacos) are my favorite along with their cactus nachos and Mango Margaritas. Mmmm... Nice having a salsa bar (the mango salsa is my favorite). Try to snag a spot on the deck overlooking the water.
- Pros: Tacos, deck dining, salsa, margaritas, Cactus nachos
- Cons: Long line, can be a wait esp. on summer weekends, HARD to find parking!

Lunch!
by theLaLuks at Citysearch
Agua verde is a good spot for lunch, with respectable fish tacos and the other dishes consistently tasty. Honestly though, I only come here because it's close to UW Health Sciences (where I practically live.) It might not be worth a trip out of your way....

Great casual waterfront spot with fabulous food and service
by kristylsummers at Citysearch
At Aqua Verde, you may have to wait in line to order, but it moves quickly and gives you time to decide what you want. This is a great casual mexican spot on the water with killer food and great service. Lots of vegie items (including all sides), but if you eat fish - go for the fish tacos (fried fish). After paddling, be sure to grab a bite here and enjoy the view.
- Pros: Tacos, tacos, tacos

Excellent seafood enchiladas
by seattlesunshine at Citysearch
I love Agua Verde. Sometimes we have to wait for a table but that is fine because it is well worth is. I love the deck. It has a great vibe. The food is fresh and original. I have never felt rushed or unwelcome. It is great for a night out with friends.
