I was recently over charged at this place on my credit card. Please be careful this place might be preying on tourists. The fish tacos are also very soggy and the fish and chips were over cooked. Not a good place to eat.

Food came out fast. Good thing because we weren’t offered chips and salsa. I has a shrimp taco and a fish taco. Shrimp taco was good. Fish taco seemed to smell extra fishy and maybe a bit off so I didn’t eat much. Flavors were ok but lacked salt. We sat at the window looking toward the street. The table was an old surfboard which seemed cool at first until I noticed it was broken near the edge. Everything seemed kind of dirty. It was mid March so off season for the area. Not sure I would eat here again.

There fish tacos were not good, it just tasted like unseasoned, bland fish. Definitely not the best Mexican food.

Foood is over priced , you literally have to buy chips when they should be complementary on the house . The personell don't care to get your food right or even attend to customer service . I really don't reccomend this place the ambiance sucks . If i could I would leave negative starts

Go for margaritas!! Only stopped here for margaritas and they were strong. The staff was super friendly and this place is conveniently located next to the boardwalk.

The food is not good, we got flavorless dishes and in a restaurant, in my opinion, seasoning is important!

The staff and service here are very good and the food was delicious! I have some dietary restrictions, and they made sure that my order was made to my satisfaction, so very good of them! I live a little ways away from them, but they are my new go to spot!

I don't really leave reviews anymore but thought this place was worth the time. In short, I come from a city with plenty of taco trucks and Mexican Restaurants so for this restaurant to stand out was a huge plus for me. IMO most Restaurants are watered down for what ever reason and don't have that robust flavor you crave for but this place did not disappoint! Everyone's meal was pretty tasty (we all shared our food). Fish and chips & shrimp and chips where okay, a little pricey for the amount of food? Highlights pastor nachos, chile relleno & enchilada plate, quesdilla and burrito to name a few. Only issue was that the left overs the next day was a little salty but fresh it was pretty fire.
