    So me and my friends came here a couple weeks back because everyone raves about their fish/shrimp tacos! We came on a day where it was kinda slow and there weren't very many people. The atmosphere of the restaurant seemed like it had a lot of potential but they just fell kinda short. The guy playing music was good but was playing waaaaayyyy too loud for the small crowd that was there. I couldn't even hear my own friends speaking to me and they were right in front of me! For the food.. it was such a disappointment to say the least. I think their salsa verde was probably the best thing there. Their fish/shrimp tacos were okay but definitely nothing to rave about. The pictures I attached were of the garlic shrimp and rice plate they had. First of all the shrimp barely tasted like garlic, and they added what seemed to be uncooked bacon bits????????????? Me and my guests were so confused?? Nowhere on the menu (that I can remember) even mentioned bacon?? What leaves me to believe it was uncooked is because there was no bacon flavor to the dish at all!!! So it was like did they just throw that on there?? It was really gross. Our bill came out to about $70 something for very mediocre food. We hope we came on just a bad day because their food on Instagram seemed so delicious! But for now, we won't be back soon.

    Shrimp tacos! Delicious

    My business partner and I met a long time client of ours as he invited us for lunch. First off, our server Carlos went above and beyond, we appreciated all his efforts especially when we asked if they had desert which they don't serve desert however, he went next door to the bakery and brought us a bunch of delicious pastries, that was awesome of him to do that. The shrimp tacos were delicious especially adding the chipotle sauce. Will definitely come back soon!

    This place is the best! I have been coming here for years and it never disappoints! The food is always fresh and tastes amazing! I can't wait for restaurants to open back up cuz I miss the atmosphere, music, karaoke, bomb food and micheladas you can't go wrong!! I also noticed they are remodeling so I can't wait for that. The fish and shrimp tacos are my favorite I get them every time! The service is great too always welcomed like family. Great family owed restaurant.. 10/10 would highly recommend!! Not sure we're the negative comments were from.. with covid going around I wouldn't be so quick to judge a restaurant, an amazing one at that!!

    This is my boyfriend and I's go to for seafood. I'd have to say this is a hidden gem. Great music, service, and food. I always get shrimp tacos they're DELICIOUS, today I switched it up and got a shrimp quesadilla and I enjoyed it so much! The restaurant is always clean and enjoyable! Live music on the weekends is a huge plus!

    Shrimp tacos go crazy

    See all

    Feb 2 2025 3.5 stars…read more Lately our go to Mexican eats is Cinco De Mayo in Martinez. Christians-smh. It is Sunday and Cinco is closed. The server and service here at Isla was perfect. I pointed out to he waiter that he had a crumb on his chin and he wiped and chuckled like a nice champ. The music is pleasant but a bit louder than needed so I brought out the earplugs. The entire indoor setup is nice. Our food is arriving after what seems like a long wait meaning either the food is being served fresh, hot and tasty, or we are in for a mediocre experience. Our two plates arrived. Chilli relleno and Grilled chicken enchilada. I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the smallish squair white plates. Reminds me of trying to look upscale. We own plates like these and that didn't work. Wife's enchilada plate was covered with three hot and very tasty chicken filled food bombs plus sides. The chili plate looked a little weak (too much plate showing) but that was the tastiest chilli relleno ever in 40 years of me enjoying these. Served hot with cheese filled up to the ying yang, an extra spiciness I have never had before that I loved and me wishing I had a spoon to scrape up the end of the sauce. Unfortunately the smallish rice and bean servings on both plates were luke warm and tasted so so. . I had similar hotter to those with tv dinners back in the day. The two plates and a coke at $43 has me scratching my chin on whether we will make that drive again. That is unless it is Sunday. Then possibly. .

The…read morefirst time I tried it at Isla, however, I was completely let down--the meat was bland and the burrito felt stale. After giving it some thought, I decided to return and explore what it was about Isla that everyone raved over. This time around, I ordered the fish tacos, and I was hooked! Isla's fish tacos are phenomenal--easily the best in the area and a must-have every single time. I usually go for the tilapia, though I've sampled the red snapper as well. They come out super crispy on the outside yet remain incredibly moist inside, with the salsa and toppings melding together perfectly. I also visited their new location today and was pleasantly surprised by the ample parking and comfortable seating. The space is beautiful, making it even more enjoyable to stop by for those irresistible fish tacos. Here's a quick rundown of my ratings: Fish (all varieties): 8.7/10 Birria: 7/10 (good, but not their standout item) Carne Asada Super Burrito: 5.8/10 When it comes to satisfying my fish taco cravings, Isla remains the only choice.
