Good place, nice location, super kind staff and service. The food is good, very tasteful, the issue is only regarding the size and prices we thought a little expensive considering the volume of food in each dish. Despite that everything was good.

Excellent place to eat. We didn't know what to expect and our waiter, who was brand new and still learning, was great and convinced me to try the enchilada special and that was spectacular. We highly recommend this place to eat.

Service was great and the overall vibe of the place is definitely a highlight! The food looked amazing with a great presentation but unfortunately the flavor didn’t quite match. The taco meat was a bit under-seasoned and tasted kind of bland. Still, it’s a fun spot to hang out, just wish the flavor packed as much punch as the visuals.

This is a great spot with excellent food. I had the fish tacos, which were very good. I'd recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Santa Monica who enjoys fresh Mexican food.

Quality tasting food, lively atmosphere, but could easily talk to each other during the meal. Location at the beach was nice, view of ocean sorta blocked by food truck across the street. I'd go again! Salsa with chips were good apps. All our meals (salads, tacos, quesadillas were all tasty. House skinny spicy margaritas good. Draft Modelo good. Mandarin Jarrito good.

The ambience of the restaurant was nice. It felt like you were in resort of Mexico with a great view of the ocean. However, the food was not the best. The chicken burrito was bland and the salsa was not my favorite. It was more of a smoky flavor. I would only come again for margs and appetizers during happy hour.

Great find in SM! Some of the best tacos I've ever had! Seriously! We had the barbacoa and the veggie tacos, perfection! Excellent soup and guacamole dip as well. Will be going back!

Get any of their margaritas! Frozen & on the rocks are both great. And get tacos!! If you have a dog, get them the el perrito taco.

Food was fine. Nothing wrong, just a bit bland. Makes sense for this location - touristy. Service was outstanding. Busboy made extra efforts to keep us warm by repositioning the heat lamps and refilling them with propane. Nice touch.

Laura

Delicious Tacos!! I had the veggie and my son had the shrimp, they were both great. I loved the Mexican slaw. The ceviche tostada was great and the guacamole was great!

We had a superb meal here. The Farmers market nachos were the best nachos I've ever ha!. I liked them so much I ordered them as a takeout a couple of nights later, and they came with their own pot of melted jack, so, so Good!!!
