“Great tacos; especially shrimp and beer are highly recommended. They are in big portions; if you eat 3 tacos in general, you may consider 2 tacos here. Free chips and salsa. And have some drink options.
Highly recommending if you are passing by.“

“Overall, a decent place. We stopped in after lunchtime so it was quiet. We both ordered the fish and chips (yeah, I know it's a Mexican restaurant). The shrimp and fish were very good. The fries could have been crispier. I'd visit again if I was in the area.“

“These are hands down the best carnitas tacos in Santa Cruz. No question. I don’t want to hear any debate. The carnitas were crackly/crispy on the outside and soft/tender on the inside. The quality here is leagues above everything else in Santa Cruz. This place is better than pretty much anything you will find in the South Bay as well which is saying a lot.“

“Hidden gem! Be sure to do their 5-pounder burritos challenge, I thought it's either a typo or I was in Vegas. But it's a real thing, I was shock by the size of it (that's what she said), and If you can eat it in 10 mins then it's free!
Also shout out to Jonny what a great guy, 10/10 recommend this place“

The food is great! Wonderful dishes like machete taco or the super burritos.
They serve wine and beer.
We live in the area so we go to either dine in or take home. Always delicious!“

“My friend and I had breakfast at Evarits’s Comal this morning and it was FABULOUS! My veggie eggs Benedict was perfectly cooked, with one of the best hollandaise sauces I’ve ever tasted. The fruit accompaniment was delicious and fresh. Service was on point. I even got serenaded and served a yummy dessert when they found out it was my birthday. I wholly recommend this excellent restaurant!“

“My favorite restaurant in Santa Cruz when I was an undergrad at UCSC!! They make their tortillas fresh in front of your eyes for your meal. Everything is made in-house and with fresh ingredients, making your eating experience unforgettable! I will miss this place greatly but I 100% recommend anyone to stop by this place for a great meal!“

“Where do I begin!? Favorite burrito spot since I was a child. The house sauce is literally the best in the world. I’ve yet to ever find somewhere else that has it. Everytime I come home to visit I go here multiple times. 12/10
Would recommend the pastor burrito it’s my favorite 🤩“

“The brother serving the food there is incredibly friendly and greets everyone like family, always calling you “brother.” It creates a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere that makes you want to come back. On top of that, the carnitas are outstanding—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. A great experience all around.“

“First ordered one taco platter to share. Loved the bass taco so ordered a second platter. Scallops taco and mushrooms are both very tasty too.
Service was very good and the recommendations were perfect.
It was a hot day so we stayed inside for the cool air. Otherwise, sitting outside should be a nice option too.“

“Delicious jackfruit tacos. Great for vegetarian, vegan. And one of the only places to get gluten free. We asked and the chips are gluten free although I'm not sure about cross contamination but no reaction. Chips and guacamole make a meal though in a pinch“

“Pedro's food has remained delicious for several years. Vegetarian, z chicken and shrimp fajitas stand out as well prepared and served sizzling hot with lovely corn and flour tortillas. The quantity of food served is good enough that we didn't even order appetizers. Cocktails are amazing - tried old fashioned, flower and feut, flights of margaritas. The flight option give you a way to try their flavored margaritas, although the come out a bit sweeter than a classic margarita. Add some lime juice to balance the sweetness. The atmosphere is quite and relaxing since the place is not over crowded. The new remodeled decor has improved the ambience to be more relax take it easy dining night like atmosphere. The service is still the best, all servers are very welcome and courteous and attend to each request with pride. Overall a great place for authentic Mexican place in the bar area“
