“Super fresh Seafood 🦞 🐟 makes for elegantly prepared plates over-loading w/ shrimp or lobster or something else just as tasty. Sopes are amazing. Great menudo...lol. The dishes are served in such an incredible layout no matter the dish. Nice variety of beverages & You will think Ur on 1 of the 7 seas. Very authentic. Nice patio. Well maintained. Nice place to chill out and just hav a slow going delicious meal. ADA Compliance is good. Staff is outstanding. They aim 2 please and usually hit bullseye 🎯 1st try. Have.heard that the Bllood Mary's r rather good. Especially after 3 or 4. Awesome Clamato type drink as well. Beer selection is lean but mean. Actually hav larger selection than thought. That cuz they hav really hard to find beers in USA here. Everything fits to make heck Of a Meal.
We enjoy most everything but 1 in our family is allergic 2 avocados 🥑. Mor 4 Us. But they always go out of way to keep dish and prep in kitchen away from anything potentially dangerous. That's a whole nother level of quality service!
Was really cool when they showed off just how fast they make the Seven Sea's taste so delicious in kitchen area. They r blade masters. Amazing amount of seafood prepared any way You wish. Suggest menu items tho. Mite not seem like it but lots of catering and special occasions have been recommended and totally enjoyable. The presentation is artful. Fyi- This is 1 of last restaurants 2 survive last several decades in Old Town Orange 🍊...cuz has no competition at their level of offerings, quality, intuitive Staff, Super Chefs, & Happy management. It's nice having a wonderful tasting meal run smoothly that helps enhance GoodVibes
...cuz of the Good Peeps that always hav a smile and willingness to help. We etryN the specials and start w/ giant shrimp 🦐 cocktails for each of us & them share a few off menu. Ingredients so fresh it looks like just came off boat. Extremely well known for both seafood and diff kinds of soup. Large servings make already fair price much more of value. Plus it tastes so darn good 👍
Highly Recommend 🤙“

“One of the best tamales I ever had.“

“Me and coworker were looking for a decent Mexican restaurant for some tacos in this area, not too far from work bc traffic … But glad we tried this place. Carnitas taco was my favorite. The fact that I could eat that alone without any salsas, delicious. You can actually taste the meat for what it is. Very friendly staff. Coworker got carnitas burrito and loved it.“

“My visit to was a pleasant experience, characterized by its cozy atmosphere and straightforward Mexican cuisine. The restaurant’s décor subtly nods to Mexican traditions, providing a nice backdrop for a casual meal. While the dishes, including tacos and enchiladas, were prepared adequately, offering a taste of the expected flavors without much flair. The service was prompt and courteous, adding to the overall ease of the meal. is a solid choice for those looking for a reliable, no-frills Mexican dining experience.“

“They also have large Mexican candy selection. The candy is cash only and funds get donated!“

“Wow, great tacos! That was my first thought when I bit into my Carnitas taco.

I wanted something from a local family run Place and this fit the bill. The Carnitas taco were tinged with lime which made it amazing. Although the tacos are small they are stuffed with meat, very filling. I also got the Al pastor and the barbacoa. I tasted the other two but only ate one. The barbacoa was OK but it wasn’t my favorite, but very juicy. ($2.75/taco cash)

I loved that they gave me a bag of chips in my to go order. The salsa is a fresh chunky salsa and quite spicy. I don’t like the pureed type salsa because I don’t think it usually has a good flavor. I was happy with the fresh chunky style they serve.

This is definitely a hole in the wall. It was very busy at lunchtime. Coming up to the building it looks quite grubby but I pushed past that knowing that I had great ratings. I’m glad I did. It’s definitely not an updated, well kept restaurant but the food was great. I met a family who said they’ve been coming for years and love the food.

If you want mom and pop Place it seems to be very popular with good prices, check this place out.“

“Ratheesh, our experience having you cater our wedding was 10000000000/10. I can't tell you how much I appreciated you working with us to make a vegan Mexican menu that our guests all absolutely loved. You made it so classy (the mango, the quality of the food, the presentation, everything) I was blown away. It was everything I hoped for and more. Thank you for everything and hope we get to work with you again!!“

“Reminds me of home. A lady helped me and she was so sweet. I didn’t see it on their menu but i saw her checking on something while i made up my mind. It was pork in chile verde my favorite! I asked her if i can get that she said of course and brought it to my table. It felt like a home cooked meal. I will come again when I’m in the area.“

“Drove up from San Diego! Worth it!“

“best chorizo in town..try it and you will love it😋“

“Friendly staff and delicious authentic Mexican food!“

“If you saw it from the outside, you probably wouldn't think you could buy prepared food here. But it's legit, the enchiladas are probably some the best flavor wise I've eaten. Red or green sauce always good. Tortas are pinpoint and simple. Street tacos are good, just ask for extra cilantro and onions. Salsa is key...very good“

“Drove up from San Diego! Worth it!“

“Excellent, we enjoyed bringing our staff to celebrate the Christmas Holiday“

“EXCELLENT CABEZA AND CHORIZO....have a home-made flavor and mouthfeel that distinguishes this place from other taquerias. I can also recommend them for catering. Their quesadillas & tacos at parties are the absolute best...off the chain. A+++“

“This place is a top notch quality, Mexican restaurant with good service, good vibes, and amazing food, bith delicious, quality ingredients. I was very impressed. Staff is very professional and nice, welcoming and hospitable. And the game World Series game was on , ao was extra fun! Definitely a go to now for a good Mexican food night out.“

“Wahoo's Fish Tacos in Old Towne Orange, California, is a healthy haven that hits the spot! Their menu is packed with good-for-you options that don't skimp on flavor. We love daily and weekly specials. Especially in summer 🌞 time. 2025 has been a tasty year so far:))
Such a wonderful location.... peaceful and delicious.
Fish tacos and black beans original dish.
But the Banzai Bowl - it's a mountain of fresh veggies and brown rice topped with grilled fish or tofu is super popular for those with any dietary issues. Their fish tacos are legendary, and the Classic is my go-to. The fish is always perfectly grilled, and the cabbage mix adds a nice crunch. Sigg the pico de Gallo & salsa station near soda fountain machine.

Their drinks are top-notch too! They have a very unique ice packed chest into counter next to cash register with Mexican beers and sodas...has water, teas And other options. But the real star is the patio. It's huge, open, and surrounded by trees, like a cathedral of sunshine. There's always a nice breeze, and it's the perfect place to chill after a meal.

The staff are always super friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to make sure everyone feels welcome, especially people with disabilities. I've seen them help people with wheelchairs and walkers, and they always do it with a smile. I'm 1 of them:))

And the location is right in the heart of Old Towne Orange, in a beautiful plaza that's a National Landmark. You can see all kinds of historic buildings & Landmarks from the patio including Plaza ⛲ Park 🏞️ & Orange 🍊 Square ⏺️ .
Chill place to be. So if you're looking for healthy, delicious food in a beautiful setting, Wahoo's Old Towne Orange 🍊 is the place to go!“

“Best food casera in town! Yo lo recomiendo. Y seguire viniendo.“
