Great service and food. Lunch on the patio was lovely. Portions for what we ordered were very nice. I had a vegetarian burrito, and he had a baja bowl.

This is the worst experience I've had coming here. The service was almost non-existent. I ordered carna asada plate and was the worst I had. It seemed to be done on a frying pan and the meat was more fat than actual meat. The parts that were edible had no flavor at all. Never coming back!

Shrimp Botana Platter is the best shrimp taco in the world. Must have when you in Laguna Beach.

Just went here for the second time and it may be the best Mexican food I've ever had! My wife and I were visiting California from Oregon and this was our first stop after the airport! Great food and friendly staff!

Salsa is amazing!! We were in Laguna Beach for a few days and had to come back multiple times because it's so good! Everything is so good! Wish I could take this restaurant home with me.

Tuesday tacos were bland with grease dripping out of them. Service was even worse than the tacos. Old tables with multiple areas of missing finish Gave 2 stars because other locations are better. Won't be back here

Quaint Mexican beach restaurant. Loved the fact that it was so close to the beach/you can see it from their outdoor dining area, which is where I sat.My service from start to finish was great. I ordered the 2 tacos with soup for $20ish. Tacos were on point and full of flavor(I ordered my tacos, 2 yr old style with only meat & cheese). The soup could've had a deeper flavor to the broth but still very delicious!Located on a very popular street in Laguna. Would recommend if you're in the mood for a laid back restaurant with classic Mexican food dishes.OHHH & THEIR SALSA = SOO GOOD!Parking - is on the street

I've been multiple Avila's location. This is become a must stop when I visit from Washington. This is my first time visiting the Laguna Beach location. It’s probably one of the smaller locations that I’ve visited but it is the only one that has an ocean view.I love how the staff does an amazing job embracing you and making you feel like your family or friends. Even if it's your first time visiting one of their locations.This is real authentic Mexican food. Their food is always extremely consistent.
