I had the tortilla soup and hubby had soft shell tacos, both were really good! Our waitress Lane, was AWESOME! So sweet and friendly! I would highly recommend this place to others!

I usually always have the crispy tacos and my hubby usually has the super sized burrito although last night he opted for the soft tacos. I agree with other reviews that the dishes need some spicing up, more cilantro would be nice too. One chief complaint is that on three separate occasions, the restaurant never has guacamole as was the case last night. I really don't understand why they always run out, it's more than frustrating especially when you like it on your food. Perhaps we should start bringing our own since they never seem to have it. The owners are great and I know they are very involved in the restaurant but they need to step up their game. Bring more variety in and perhaps try serving complimentary chips and salsa. One last note, I had a lime margarita too but it was on ice which I dislike but apparently their machine didn't work. It is little things like that, no guac and staff that look bored that make return visits unlikely.

We are returning customers who enjoy supporting local and eating authentic Mexican cuisine and they make a mean Margarita. My only complaint is that they are always out of or don't have fresh guacamole.

The staff are friendly. The owners are very involved in the business. I LOVE the nachos (usually with refried beans and beef added). There's a nice view too. read more The staff are friendly.

The quality of the food was very good. The salsas were not good though. I was glad they had regular bottled hot sauce at least.

Best part was location as you could eat outside in patio, or grab it to go and go down to the beach and eat there too. Food was good, decent portion size and not too expensive on the wallet. Overall would give it a perfect 10 and if ever back in this area, wil be coming back to this location

So many layers of meat, sauces, crispiness and fresh tomatoes and herbs. I'm shocked that no one else posted a picture of the stacker get it! Will definitely be coming back here next time we are in the area. Highly recommend this place!

They offer vegan cheese and veggie ground beef , and are happy to substitute or put sauces on the sides for folks who didn 't want as much spice. Warning--the burrito bowl was MASSIVE!The service was really prompt and friendly.All in all, a great place for lunch!Vegetarian options: There were veggie options for nachos, burritos, tacos and tortilla soup. Plus there was vegan cheese would be substituted and they 'll give extra guacamole instead of crema.
