The global fusion makes the menu more fun than the average taco place. The dog friendly covered patio (which has heaters when it is chilly) has a great vibe. Proximity to the beach makes it perfect for pre or post beach grub. The Happy Hour is on point (may I suggest the Dole Whip Mai Tai - YUM).

Tortillas take center stage. Corn tortillas made fresh to order, flower tortillas just as good. Had multiple green curry shrimp and Baja fish. My 11 year old said it was the best tacos he’d ever had and he only eats pizza and burgers definitely coming back. Great service and location.

My husband brought me in for a late Mother’s Day lunch, and we had such a great experience! We sat at the bar and were warmly welcomed by the bartender, Osheana. Her personality and energy were amazing—she truly made the visit memorable. We’ll definitely be coming back!
