We stopped in for lunch on the way back from the beach. As a party of 5 (4 adults and 1 kid), we…read morewere pleasantly surprised by the amount of food and price. My parents split the ACP with vegetables, my mom said it was the best she'd ever had! It was full of peppers, onions, broccoli. I tried the burrito lunch special and it was so good! It was filling, I couldn't finish it. The rice was super yummy! My husband got a lunch combo with a chili relleno. He really liked it. They have mild and medium salsa which is a nice touch.

The food and service was really great. I like Mexican food, so I've had many different dishes,…read moreincluding in Mexico, and have a good reference point. We got just two dishes, one was a classic, steak Fajitas, but the other dish, was definitely an improvised dish. It was a thin and crunchy big tortilla stuffed with a mix of cheesy veggies and meats. Everything was great. The service was great too, very friendly and responsive staff. I would definitely come back.

They have a dedicated fryer for their chips which is perfect if you have a gluten allergy. They can make all of their tacos with corn and flour tortillas. I ordered the blackened mahi taco which was a daily special with cabbage and pickled onions. I also ordered the tuna taco with bacon, cabbage, tomato and chipotle mayo. My favorite taco was the veggie taco which had a great mix of coconut rice, black beans, peppers, corn and cilantro lime cream. My kids had the beef taco with cheese and they loved it. The kids meal comes with chips and salsa. The staff was helpful and nice. The food came out pretty quickly for being really busy. I would highly recommend coming here for tacos especially right off the beach.

Man, I hate to give less than 5 stars, but this place has gone downhill over the last 8 years we've…read morecome here. It's so sad. This used to be our favorite, and let me tell you why it no longer is... First, and worst, the customer service. They couldn't make any exchange for the spicy salsa that comes with the kids meal, so basically I'm paying $7 for a tortilla with melted cheese. Additionally, my kid was taking our plates up the steps and fell, getting salsa all over his arm. As he sat there picking up everything, two workers walked by him and ignored him. Didn't ask if he was okay or offer to help. I guess that's what happens when you hire kids that don't care about anything. They all seemed unhappy and I encountered 5 different people and zero smiles. Secondly, the food and prices. I get that everything has gone up in price, but don't go up in price and down in quality, skimping on things that used to be free and plentiful. I just don't want to pay more for less. Lastly, we caught management in a lie and that's just not okay. You gave my husband an excuse for something and me a totally different one. Don't make up stuff to force your ridiculous policies. Bottom line, the food is pretty good, we've been here more times than I can count, but next time remember that customer service goes a long way and you could have just made right an issue that cost you pennies instead of reading this review.

If you order the queso, it comes with a huge basket of heavily seasoned chips, which was a great surprise and perfect for sharing. We came with a group of six and sat outside enjoying the spring weather, and the whole experience just felt easy and fun. Everyone found something they liked, and the food came out fresh and flavorful across the board (tacos, burrito, and tortilla bowls). They also have beers on draft and a cool skate shop vibe with merch, which adds to the uniqueness of the place. Nothing exceptional about the service but the food and vibe did the heavy lifting. Great atmosphere, solid food, and a spot that feels local in the best way. Definitely worth checking out if you're in CB.

Their salsa is a bit on the spicier side but is made with fresh ingredients and tastes good! You can tell that it's homemade, which is an expectation for any Mexican restaurant. I got the chicken ACP. It is great but just like the salsa, something in it (likely the cheese) has a kick! All of the components (rice, chicken, and cheese) have good flavor. If you're not a big taco fan (like me), then try the ACP! You won't regret it. My dad's birria tacos were great as well. Our server was a great guy, and frequently came around to check on us. The vibe is more of a modern Mexican establishment.
