This place lives up to the saying "hole in the wall". I had high hopes since the reviews are so positive but I'm disappointed. The tortilla shells completely fell apart making it impossible to eat with your hands and they didn't even bother putting forks or any napkins in our bag. They are extremely expensive for small proportions. I got my daughter a cheese quesadilla and it was so nasty, it took 4 of us to finish it since we didn't want to waste it since it cost so much. I've had better tacos from sports bars and chain restaurants.

The tacos are overall decent, but were missing that flavor profile needed to stand out on its own. The chicken taco was ok, the fish was missing maybe a chipotle mayo. The best by far was the Quesabirria, which was well seasoned and worked well with the corn tortilla. The horchata was just ok, as I’ve had much better in San Diego. Overall, a decent spot but missing that extra edge with the flavors.

This is exactly the type of place I want when I am at the beach. Quick, casual and not too pricey. You can order from the walk-up window, and eat at picnic benches right outside. They lean more on the "authentic" side (versus like tex-mex) so expect radishes, lime, cilantro, pickled red onion, etc. Fish taco was about $6 and pretty good size. Open seasonally...they were open in Mid April on the weekend, but not during the week until it gets warmer.

And don’t even think about not asking for the hottest sauce to put on your meal ! W O W ! Awesome !!

This place has some of the best tacos I've ever had. I strongly recommend this place. I can't wait to go back!

Extremely dissatisfied.! I ordered four different items from tacos to empanadas each one was worse then the next! The Carnitas and brisket both dry and over cooked.the empanadas not even close. I’m not sure but everyplace that I’ve ordered tacos I received orhad the option of salsa, maybe guacamole, sour cream, lettuce instead of dry cabbage and cheese with flavor. Even the radishes were Dry!! Go figure…I really was in the mood fora good taco and was disappointed enough to write a review.

I was directed to this place when I went to Liquid Assets for lunch and saw the menu brochure posted (all under the same company umbrella as well as Annabelle's BBQ). The food was deliciously AMAZING I was too hungry to take pics but I ordered the Pescado al Pastor, Al Pastor and Chorizo tacos for my lunch, they were so tasty I ordered 6 more tacos to take back to my hotel for dinner to share with my family. I ordered the Quesabirria, Al Pastor for my 6 year old and more chorizo tacos, and for dessert the Tres Leches and churros. Let's just say not much talking at dinner they enjoyed every bite. My daughter and husband loved the Quesabirria with the consommé. All the proteins were deliciously seasoned and the beautiful fresh accompaniments, pickled onions, cabbage, lime wedges, cilantro and salsas tied it all together wonderfully. The Tres leches was delicious not too sweet but I didn't care for the fruit on top. The churros were fresh,crisp and yummy, but the dulce sauce texture was little curdled and lumpy, I think this version may have been done in the oven which requires constant stirring resulting in said texture. The citrus beverage agua Fresca I ordered with lunch (so good) and the pineapple one to take back with me.The staff was friendly and helpful and I will DEFINITELY be back to enjoy some more delicious offerings. ?

Oh my goodness!!! I have found my new favorite ocean city restaurant.I am fairly picky when it comes to mexican food. Usually I order a few different things at a Mexican place hoping that one of them is ok, but everything I ordered. Incredible!Even the churros arre fresh authentic churros instead of premade.If you have a chance, don't skip this restaurant.

The food is fantastic. I highly recommend.

Tacos weren't my favorite, queso, chicken empanadas, drinks and churros we're all very good
