The food tasted homemade and the environment was very home like. My son doesn't eat jerk chicken but he tore that taco up. I loved the cucumber salsa and the homemade drinks were also delicious. The tacos definitely fill you up.

Due to the current state of things, I was skeptical when my friend suggested I try out Tortilla Island over on Ontario. But I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised and glad I followed up on her suggestion. The place is cozy, with a hole-in-the-wall ambiance that affords you the feel of being an insider on a local best-kept secret. The staff is friendly and attentive- a rare commodity these days, as I'm sure you all know. I was overwhelmed by the variety of options, and the staff were happy to provide suggestions and explain the menu. Most likely due to the commercial Taco Bell, I assumed the tacos here would be small. So I ordered two.
I couldn't have been more wrong. The tacos were a good size, and I quickly filled up on one. I had a shrimp taco. The shrimp was perfectly seasoned and succulent. The fixings were fresh. It was like biting into a little piece of heaven itself. I had the jerked chicken taco for lunch the following day. Again, the chicken was perfect; it was not dry at all, and it was mouth-watering. I was devastated when I took the last bite, but I know where to go for more. I travel quite a bit, especially internationally, but the food at this establishment is some of the best I've tasted, and I'm picky. Make no mistake, Tortilla Island isn't a one-trick pony; there is something for every proclivity. If you like spice, they've got you. Do you have a sweet tooth? No problem.
I tell you firmly, don't walk; run to check this place out. You will not be disappointed.

Tiny gem on Ontario St! Tacos are great. The punch and tea are both delicious. My favorite taco is the Sasha, which is vegan. I am NOT a vegan, so that was surprising~ but it's that good. The other tacos I have had several times and recommend are the Cantina, the Golden One, and the Rastaman.
