“Really exciting to have this in our community at a location like this. I chatted with the staff on the day of opening and they were friendly and welcoming.

Supporting a healthy alternative to normal fast food is something we should all strive more. Not a local business but I think still great for the community

Food and location are excellent. Thanks.“

“The high rates reviews tell you everything about it. Fresh fish, great service, generous portions at really fair prices. Good jams too, UB40 was playing.
Never been here before but I know how the poke bowl ordering goes. I still like to hear how they address first timers. Travis was great, he asked if we’ve been here before and we have not. He hit all the points, explained the options and gave his recs. They also have a pretty nice rewards program too, so it makes it even healthier on your guts and wallet to come more often!“

“Costa Mesa/Newport Beach, CA 📍hands down 10/10, food and experience. We stopped in here after the wonderful owner, Kurt, invited us down to try his delicious sandwiches! And safe to say we made the right choice. These sandwiches are huge and loaded with fresh ingredients. This location has been here since 2013, however beach hut has been around since the 80’s. They even add cream cheese to some of their sandwiches! 😋 The staff was wonderful, including the owner Kurt. You are missing out if you don’t stop in to get a sandwhich, tell them coco sent you!“

Had a great experience here! We ordered the Molcajete fajitas, chicken enchiladas, and the Patron margarita tower, and everything was delicious. The flavors were amazing, portions were generous, and the drinks were excellent.

The service was just as impressive—our server, Eddie, was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. To top it all off, the churros were incredible and the perfect way to end the night.

Highly recommend this spot for great food, drinks, and outstanding service. We’ll definitely be back!“
