Wow! We loved our food here so much. A real OKI gem. The Big Mamma steak burrito was amazing and my husband says his fish tacos were his favorite in NC! The perfect beach day lunch spot. Can’t wait to come back!

UPDATED to 1 star following the owner's rude review below. In reply....I only leave negative reviews when they're deserved. My wife and I were trying your establishment for the first time tonight. We walked up to your counter and after the cashier removed her beatsbydre, we placed an order for two chicken quesadillas. One of the cooks then yelled to her "no more chicken or cheese". Little surprising a taco restaurant was out of cheese and chicken.
But thanks for the offer.
Shredded cheese found on aisle 12
The tacos and quesadillas here are to die for! I've been here a bunch over the years and I swear their food just keeps getting better. Personally I would recommend the chicken quesadilla because I am a quesadilla girly but I've tried most of the menu and its all very delicious. It's also locally owned which is always a good thing!
Vegetarian options: Something I love about mexican resta
Parking: Small parking lot but not usually hard to find parking.

The food can be really good, but it’s also inconsistent. Today’s quesadilla had huge chunks of unshredded chicken, which was odd. The salsa tastes like Pace salsa. I would also recommend ordering online since it’s a lot faster than in person (very slow for a taco hut). I always want to love this place since it’s the only taco restaurant on the island, but wish it was more consistently good, with more options to choose from.

Disappointed by entire experience. Charged an announced 50% upcharge for requesting half shrimp, half chicken on a $13 burrito which was normally $13 for either chicken or shrimp, and it was going to remain just 50-50 protein. No extra shrimp on top of the chicken, so it made no sense, as I told the cashier. Finally was called to pick up my order. Just about to drive off when I thought to check, and it was some other guys order. Wasnt even busy. Was just him after me. Returned it. Picked up my burrito. Got down the road and thought, i really should check to see they actually put half shrimp in it. Nope. Not only no shrimp, but put in salsa I spevifically asked them to NOT include. So had to go back again...to get my money back. Infreakinbelievable. Don't know if it was the restaurant (well, take out shack) or just the sorrieness of the employees hired. Def won't be returning.
Absolutely best Tacos and burritos 🌯

Very disappointed and I'm a regular. Tonight I ordered a Big mama with steak and 2 North shore tacos with shrimp. No steak ! Literally NO STEAK and loaded with jalepeno peppers. Completely void of meat!! And out of the 4 taco shells, 6 shrimp! I tried to call a few times and left messages and no reply. I stopped payment on my credit card. I have had problems in the past but usually no big deal. I will not be going back until I hear from them. You have lost a good customer who visits you ALL year round. Very sad. !!

I ordered the beef, cheese and lettuce taco. The hamburger was so dry that is just rolled out of the taco, not hardly any lettuce

Wow, I didn't realize 'taco' was Spanish for 'plain ground beef in a sad shell.' Worth the forty-minute wait if you're a fan of extreme minimalism!
