With so many options to choose from in San Marcos, I have been on a quest to find the top taco…read moreshops throughout town. I stumbled in here on a whim and was glad I did. Service was quick and the food was amazing. The dining area is clean and comfy. Salsa bar was filled with all the fixings. My carne asada burrito was huge and the meat was juicy! Definitely worth a visit.

Came back to try the carne asada fries and got them to go…read more The place was crowded at noon on a Sunday afternoon with many of the tables being occupied. The fries were $17+ and the container looked a bit larger than most other nearby places. However when I got home and opened it, the size was irrelevant as everything in the container was swimming in sour cream. You can barely see anything else in the picture. Why would anyone want this much sour cream? Needless to say the fries were soggy and the whole thing tasted of sour cream even after I tried spooning it off as best I could. Sorry Ernes, you have lost me forever. There are too many other places nearby that don't make their carne asada fries look like a coconut cream pie.

This place in San Marcos is CRAFTed and curated to perfection. We used to come here when it was…read moreRip Current. Even though that closed this place was a nice surprise in its venue takeover. You order at the Bar counter for your Brew & for the tacos. The food is made at their permanent fixture food truck outside. The tacos are amazing and generously portioned. The Birria was my favorite! Carne asada was good too. The staffers are nice and ready to serve. There is high communal and individual table top seating inside and sports playing on the TV. Picnic Bench tables out on the front patio are & close to the food truck. It's pretty busy but worth the little wait for your tacos to be done. So sip sip while you wait for the buzzer to go off! Looking forward to our next visits here.

The workers there were super friendly and chill and when asking about their in house beers they were not hesitant to see what you like and give you a beverage to the best of your liking! The lighting inside is just right for day or night as it allows natural lighting in during the day with the garage door style windows and when it's night time the interior lights are not over powering to brighten up the place! If you all have not tried the "local motion" i HIGHLY recommend it if you like a great IPA! If you are looking for a great place with good vibes and a perfect place to kick back to eat tacos and have a beer or two i definitely recommend craft coast in San Marcos!

We came here while we were in Southern California, and this place was really good…read more The ambience was great, the way the tables were set up, the music, everything just felt good and welcoming. The food was delicious. I had the carne asada plate and also tried a taco, and everything was on point. I knew what I wanted and how to pick it, and my food did not disappoint at all. My husband had the taquitos and enchiladas. His experience was a little different because he went more on the veggie side, and a lot of his dishes had potatoes, so after a while it started to taste the same for him. But overall, the food itself was still good. The service was great, drinks were good, and the overall vibe made it a really enjoyable experience. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

I usually get loaded carne asada nachos here cause they prepare this dish very well compared to other locations but every now and then i'll order something different and last night i was swept away by their pollo quesadilla. it's one of those dishes that puts many others to shame and raises the bar!

A drizzle of Guacamole is included, and next time I'd ask for a bit more Cilantro and Onions. My only complaint is that you have to buy one huge taco for $9.00 (enough for two meals though) or three street tacos for $13.00, except on Tuesdays when I believe they sell individually. Among the few places that have a salsa bar, this is the best with five superb options. Free fresh and warm chips too!

I stopped by on my lunch break, and my food came out quickly and was nice and hot, which I appreciated. The inside of the restaurant was decent, although the layout was a little confusing at first because the ordering area felt somewhat blocked off. I also thought the prices were pretty high for what you get. Unfortunately, the burrito itself was a letdown. The cheese tasted off, and the bacon was severely undercooked. It was mostly fatty, raw in places, and I ended up having to pick it apart just to remove all of the bacon. After eating it, my stomach didn't feel great, which made the experience even more disappointing. Overall, I left pretty unsatisfied. There were a few positives, like the fast service, but the quality of the food just didn't live up to the price.
