Party of five seated quickly. Nice atmosphere. Fast and friendly service. Best food we’ve had on our vacation! Fish tacos are amazing.

The food was delicious and came out fairly quickly! The service was not so great and we found our particular waitress seemed annoyed to serve us. Other servers there seemed knowledgeable and friendly so I’m sure it was a fluke or the waitress might have been having a bad day. The atmosphere was awesome and felt like a true cantina.

The tacos are a la carte 5.00 the food was good, you can order other meals with bigger portions, chips and Caso dip, Philly cheese steak burrito with rice (meat was very tender, and wasn’t skimpy) I couldn’t finish was so much, had left overs the next day, fish tacos were good with chips and dip you get plenty. They have a mini bar area nice sitting area outside and dinning room area in the back. Service was friendly and attentive. It is tucked away off the main road. Worth a visit!

Tacos were so good!! Mango Habanero Shrub Margarita was delicious! So was the Coconut Lime Rum Punch! I’m still dreaming of the Sweet Potato Taco! Yum!!

After being sat and waiting nearly 20 minutes to have waitstaff acknowledge us, we put in our drink order and an appetizer. We listened to the DJ playing dance music mixes. We didn’t have a choice really because the music was too loud to talk over. After finally putting the order in, we realized that the tacos at $5 a piece were the size of silver dollar pancakes, and the $19 burrito that I ordered was the size of a panini sandwich, and was more rice than anything. Definitely would not recommend this dining experience.

My friend and I ate here for dinner and we really enjoyed our meals! We started with the chips and salsa platter. It was excellent! The salsa verde and salsa rojas were so good I asked if the sold them bottled! My friend ordered three of the sweet potato tacos and I got three of the carne asada. Both were flavorful and well seasoned. The one waitress appeared to be only one serving guests, but she was HUSTLING and so incredibly attentive and polite. I would happily eat here again!

The worst service I’ve experienced in awhile. We ordered an appetizer and entrees. Then waited around 45 minutes and never got our appetizer and our server brought out our entrees and was clueless about not bringing the appetizer. I guess she didn’t realize it never came out but that’s what happens when you go 45 minutes without checking on your customers. She also still charged us for the appetizer we never received and we had to hunt her down to have her fix the amount she already charged my credit card.

The place is nice but our food was not that great. We ordered tacos and a quesadilla. The meat inside the tacos was tasteless and bland ( the baja fish taco was great though). The quesadilla was almost full of cheese and very less chicken. They gave complimentary chips but no salsa or queso with it. Also, the reason I’m giving it one star and I wish I could give it zero- the owner is a racist! He came out after we left the restaurant and asked us if we have paid, for no good reason. I think he did that just to insult us in public or else he could have just asked the waiter who was serving us. Never going back again.

Went for the margarita. Just got the basic one, but didn’t really care for it. My friend felt the same way.

Excellent tacos! We ordered two tacos per person plus guacamole and loved the tacos so much that we ordered one extra each! Our favorites were the chicken and the barbacoa. The prices were a little steep, but it’s to be expected in a tourist town.
