Didn’t try the tacos but the soft serve/slushie scene is incredible. Wife described fresh orange and vanilla as “the best cone she’s ever had”. We went twice during our Vero visit. Staff was outstanding both visits, music was on point. Will return, will recommend.

Great location on the island. Was a long time standing favorite but, it isn’t what it used to be. Idk if they changed hands or just employees. Ordered the carnitas tacos which have always been my go to. Did not adjust the order in any way by adding or removing ingredients. The pork was nearly non existent and the toppings were not as stated. I basically ended up with a cabbage taco. The lady working the register was cold, snobby and outright rude. Wanted to charge 3 individual tacos individually instead as the three on their menu making the price higher. When pointed out the price for ordering 3 she got visibly annoyed. They also were out of 3 menu items which is crazy at an early dinner when they don’t even open for breakfast any longer. I’m a regular and a local and we all will not be back.

Vegetarian options: There is a vegetable taco and also a side of street corn, guacamole or salsa & chips.

Parking: Parking can be difficult if you don’t want to walk at all.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp.

Great little taco shop along the beach walk. Orange slush with ice cream was amazing. Tastes like the perfect Creamsicle. Steak tacos were very good. Tortillas were some of the best I've had, steak had good flavor. Chips were homemade which is awesome. You have to order inside and they call your order to pick it back up. Limiting seating inside but plenty of seating outside. Extra seating around the side and back of building too. Would definitely stop again when in town, great food, great staff, great experience.

Nice little place with outdoor seating overlooking the street (so some good people watching) very good mahi tacos, very nice service and very quick. Also love the Latin music vibe it is a great touch (I mean it) please never change. Did I mention they make their own ice cream and any citrus flavor comes from their family farm!

While strolling down Ocean Ave, we noticed this spot was quite popular, so we decided to pop in and take a look, even though we weren’t hungry yet. What a charming little place! It feels like a classic ice cream shop, but take a couple of steps to the left, and you’re in a cozy taco shop.

There’s not much seating out front, but there are tables along the side of the building. We didn’t order anything this time, but it’s such a quaint spot that it’s definitely on our list to try next time!
