I craved battered fish tacos and came upon this restaurant based on a google search. The friendly hostess seated me right away. They offer many different types of tacos and burritos, but I zeroed on the fish tacos. The meal began with chips salsa and queso. The latter is very tasty, and unexpected. I also ordered a virgin mojito. My server, Chase, was friendly and attentive. My plate arrived and the first thing I noticed was the amount of shredded cheese used in the tacos and on the refried beans. I like shredded cheese as much as the next person, but Iâm more interested in tasting the flavors. I had to remove the chunks of cheese just so I could eat the fish with the cabbage and tortilla shell. I couldnât finish my beans because they mixed in too much cheese. I paid a total of $20 (inclusive of tip) for my meal. Iâm willing to return, but will certainly ask for them to hold the cheese.

Our group stopped here twice during a fun weekend. First, we came by in the evening for drinks and dancing. We ended up coming back the next morning for bloody maryâs and breakfast. My cheesy avocado toast was delish and it was awesome sitting by the fire pit and having a relaxing start to the day.

Nice location close to the beach and the environment is great, but unfortunately the food and drinks just don't match the pretty facade. I ordered a banana margarita and my Husband ordered a raspberry one. I couldn't taste even the slightest hint of banana in mine, so i complained to yhe waiter. He argued with me that's how the mix taste. My Husnad's raspberry margarita tasted like premade manufactured syrup. The salsa for the chips & salsa was the worst salsa that I have ever eaten. It was pure tomato paste with the slightest amount of peppers added possible. It was weird. For dinner, I ordered the crab enchiladas. The verdi sauce was straight from the can. It had that sharp "tin" taste and was horrible. Nothing we had was fresh. We were so disappointed.
