Probably the best bang for the buck (and ocean views from the bar ) on Taco Tuesday : $2.75 for a *big* taco all day plus a beer special . Pay regular price for a lobster taco...but you won't mind

ᴡ Perez

Everything is good!! The food is amazing. I tried the crab stuffed avocado this last time is it was delicious. The craft beer selection is also one of the best.

Tim Erdmann

Love their tacos . Faves are the Baja, grilled shrimp and lobster . I prefer the salsa on the side. Helps get all of the white sauce directly onto the fish , then I can manage the amount of salsa Fresca.

Russell Hirschorn

This place is absolutley amazing. Its a 9.9 by far. Recently redone, best fish tacos anywhere. Grilled or fried, the options are great. Lobster is my favorite.

David Torres

My favorite beach bar and grill. Shark and lobster tacos are great. Love getting the peel-and-eat shrimp as an appetizer . Good selection of beers and house cocktails .

Angel Soriano

This place is so chill , they have a good draft beer of the local breweries . I like their baja tacos but they need to be on corn tortillas (on request).

Julia Asakawa

Fish tacos were really good! Good portion of delicious fish . Nachos on the otherhand weren't that good. I recommend sticking with tacos

Nate Melster

Great fish tacos any day and some days they are on special. Also look for beer and other drink specials . The view over looking the ocean is amazing.

Jim Hornaday

Nevermind the naysayers whining about bad service. I've been coming here for 20 years and it totally depends on how busy the kitchen is. I've had plenty of fast tacos and nice waitstaff . Like tonight.

Tatiana Peavey

Hands down the best fish tacos I've ever had and a very good craft beer selection ! Try the shark tacos !

Charlotte Curtis

Must agree with prior tips - the Mahi Fish Taco (grilled) is ah-mah-zing. At only $3.25/each this is a fantastic deal for any variety of their fish tacos . High quality, large portions , delicious.

Pat Petriello

No longer cash only . Do a lap when you walk in and you should be able to snag some seats either in the back or upstairs. Grilled Mahi and fried calamari are both awesome.

Jeremy Anslow

Great ocean view on the patio ! Killer craft beer selection and the ceviche and tacos are bomb!

Saeed

fresh sea foods , order lobster and mahi taco and fried baby octopus , whole were great????????????????????????

Annie May

Not a fish fan, but the wahoo was so good! They are a busy place, so don't throw a fit and be rude that you have to wait more than 5 minutes... Great beer and cocktail selection !

Emily Layton

sit upstairs on the deck, watch the surfers, and order a cocktail and a wahoo, shark or mahi taco . the guacamole is great too.

Joanne Chu

Try the oyster shooter . It's an oyster explosion in your mouth.....in a very good way if you like oysters ! Lol

MiguelandJess Marquez

The tacos here are amazing , the smoked albacore was to die for !!! I highly recommend this place

Fashion 5.0 Magazine

Mark Gahagan

Nick Collins

Nachos are really good, bathroom looks like its should be for a place in the gas lamp, there really nice looking. Great place to meet up and chill ...

Dustin Lee

In addition to the tacos (get the platter if you can't decide which to get), beer selection is great as well .

Brandi Lester

The employees here are either really great, or really terrible. The food is good, and from the bar you can watch the waves on the beach while the sun sets.

sTarLife4u ????

Ceviche tacos are BOMB ???? Tuesday nights are packed so be ready to WAIT... but the tacos were well worth it!

Mehrnaz M

Taco was delicious, get hurricane cocktail with an extra shit of Vodka !!

John Farmer

Grilled Mahi tacos , steamers in butter garlic broth and fresh oysters ... All a must! It's also cash only .

Kaitlyn Dimler

Chicken and Baja tacos are amazing! Super cheap , beach view and best tacos hands down

Alan Bush

Wahoo fish tacos and excellent view from top bar . Nachos have less chip and more ingredients by the way.

Al Keeme

We go for the fish , shark, lobster tacos and the oysters on the half shell. Yum!

KplusAplusB

Amazing happy hour . Great food for a more than decent price! Love the atmosphere. & You can see the beach .

Ruth Shields

Fish lovers say they have the best fish tacos - order one Mahi and one Wahoo, but what do us fish haters do? I love the carne asada tacos - one order is two minis, so if you're hungry, order two! Read more

Thirsty James

Taco Tuesday is the best. I love the carne asada street tacos and the fried shrimp tacos :)

Sebastien Page

You must have the mahi mahi tacos . I would also suggest having a couple house margaritas .

Daniel Pimm

Come on a week night - Great beer selection , relaxed atmosphere , phenomenal fish tacos !

Hoppocrates Hoppocrates

Try the habanero pinneapple salsa mahi mahi tacos and lobster tacos . They also have a beer clock that gives you a select beer at a discount that raises 50 cents per 1/2 hour

Ali Anderson

Quick service , amazing fish tacos , outdoor seating

Andrea Ferrada

Vegetarians ; they make DELICIOUS zucchini tacos . order them off the "secret" menu.

Klement Ainsworth

Dank bathrooms and delicious food. But the view is great and the tacos better.

Muddy

The best fish tacos . They have more room with the new upstairs

Julieaanna Piatek

Been coming here for about 15 years seen the place grow and change! Still love it here!

Clarka Honziku

The fish tacos here are to die for. Loved the fried calamari especially!

Ada Chan

Not a big fan of the Wahoo taco but the mahi is pretty freaking good. Ahi tuna is good and a decent size for the price. Steamers? Don't even hesitate.

Jennifer

Appetizers are 50% off during happy hour . Tacos are $2.75 the entire day on Taco Tuesdays . Cash only !

Jason Bell

Fantastic fish tacos - especially the mahi mahi
