Solidly delicious food while supporting small business.
Maria E.

This place has the beautiful vibe of small business and it almost feels like you're at a family home having a good meal. The people are nice and welcoming and even though it's order at the counter, we were checked on to make sure we didn't need anything. The food is solidly good-- flavorful meats, beans, rice--whatever your mood is, I'm pretty sure you'll like it. Another detail I liked is that the food is served on reusable plates instead of styrofoam or plastic containers. Everything just tastes that much better on real plates. :-) It's not far from the freeway, so if you get hungry passing through, please come & check them out.

I found this gem randomly! The staff were very friendly and patient with us as we decided what we wanted to order. The food came out fairly quick and hot! We ordered a chilaquiles w/ carne asada and an over medium egg. The tortilla chips were crunchy and crispy, the egg was fried perfectly, the carne asada was well flavored and soft! The meal was served with rice and beans which of course were also amazing! This is the best chilaquiles I have ever had and I am looking forward to the next time I can go back! My sister ordered the Fish and Shrimp Tacos. I tasted the fish taco and that was cooked perfectly! The batter was crispy and not over coated, the fish tasted great and was cooked perfectly! My sister did enjoy the shrimp taco as well and said they battered and fried it perfectly! Definitely a must try if you are near here. The only thing that prevented a five star is the temp inside the restaurant was a bit warm. Not a deal breaker though, will for sure be back!

We were excited to try this spot, but unfortunately didn't get the chance this time. We walked in with the intention of ordering and waited at the register while there were only two tables occupied (about 8 guests total), and we were the only people waiting to order. After a few minutes, we were told "one second," which was totally understandable, but after waiting another 5 minutes (~300 seconds ) with multiple opportunities to acknowledge or take our order, we decided to leave. Could've just been an off moment or staffing issue, so I'm not writing them off completely and may give them another try down the road, but the first impression wasn't great.

Sinaloa Mexican & Seafood, 1759 Oceanside Blvd, Oceanside, CA92054. Small Mom & Pop Mexican eatery in Oceanside that opens from 9am (Closed on Mondays). Great service and very friendly people. We ordered the fish tacos and chilaquiles. The food came very quickly. Both were good. The fish were fresh and portions were large. I would go again if I'm in the area.

Refreshing Horchata

Tacos in this simple little restaurant were good and satisfying. We had the Grilled Mahi Taco, Shrimp Taco, and Fish Taco. I enjoyed the Shrimp Taco. Crispy and not too breaded so I was still able to taste the shrimp. The Grilled Mahi was a little disappointing because it was dry but still tasty. Three kinds of sauces were offered to enhance the flavors of the tacos. The Horchata was refreshing with cinnamon flavor. Will come back again when in the area and will try their other food. Service was very nice making sure we got the food we ordered.

Great service, very friendly and family oriented ambiance. food was good!

Adobada taco

Why you need to come support this delicious Mexican food spot: #1 as soon as we stepped off the car, its smelled good, that's always the best sign lol 2) when you come in you are greeted with hellos and welcomes with the best music playing! 3) the menu is a breeze tacos are only five dollars and their gigantic see my photos. They definitely are not skimpy on the meat. I really only needed one taco but of course I got a Carne Asada and adobo and a shrimp taco to split with my husband it was absolutely delicious. 4) the owners are so sweet, served us, checked on us, go try something there, with these prices, you can get a ton of food. It's definitely worth it.. 5) because you trust my reviews lol

Salsa
J-to-the- A.

Super cheap on the salsa which is key to a meal. Nothing worst than getting home and finding a 1/4 filled salsa for $23 of food. SMH Chipotle was the safer option. SMH

Fish and chips, golden and delicious, and the coleslaw is unique and tasty
Linda C.

You will always feel welcomed by Raquel and Bernie. They are a wonderful couple and the quality of their food is amazing. Try eating here just once and you will become a regular patron.

Rolled tacos
Danette P.

The best tasting food I've had in Oceanside. Each dish we ordered was very tasty. It's a must try. The prices are perfect. From the moment we walked in, the service was very attentive. I'll be back, when in the area.

Dinner time.

It was so nice to be back home in Southern California for the week. While our vacation was quiet and uneventful we happened to find the most humble mom and pop Mexican restaurant here in Oceanside. The owners were so kind and attentive. I ordered a grilled fish taco that was really tender and not over cooked it came with a spicy green sauce that really complemented the fish well. The rice cooked well was really yummy and flavorful and the shrimp was delicious nice size shrimp full of flavor served with saltine crackers. I really can't say enough good things about this business I can see why they got great reviews between the amazingly fresh food and the kindness and love that the owners put into their business i highly recommend the delicious food here.

Amazing fish tacos at a great price. Everything was awesome. Would highly recommend. There was only one cook so if you come when it's busy it might take a little. Friendly service.

My mom, wife, daughter, and I had an amazing taco lunch here! Just sensational! We ordered fish, grilled blackened mahi and shrimp tacos --- 2 for each of us. Served with the tacos was the house-made hot sauce. The woman who served us warned us that the green hot sauce was truly hot. Since I love really spicy food, I had to taste it to believe it and it truly was hot. And hot in all the right ways. The tacos were large, stuffed with shrimp or blackened mahi or fried fish and flavored with pico de gallo, aioli, lettuce and plenty of limes on the plate to add additional flavor. For drinks I had the horchata, which was delicious and the rest of my family had Jarritos sodas. The woman who served us, who I think is one of the owners, was very warm and friendly. The ambiance is down-to-earth, straightforward and simple --- a place that is focused on delivering great food. My family and I were full after two tacos and the price is very reasonable.

They can be accessed via Highway 76 and getting on Mission Avenue. The shopping plaza they are in allows for ample parking space. The Crab Pub has a spacious interior and there's plenty of big tables for groups and families. They also have a separate dining area set aside from the main space and they also have a party room that can be reserved. Service was fast and attentive and there was very little wait time. There is also a bar on premise, but they do not have a hard liquor license just yet. But you can always enjoy a beer or my favorite is Soju. One of my favorite meals here is a crab boil bag that contains mussels, shrimp, crawfish, potatoes, corn, boiled eggs, and crab legs. I like to get this with their pub sauce. The Cajun seasoning is so flavorful! Their crawfish are pretty decent in size and I may sometimes order a bag on the side. For starters, their fried calamari is OK, but doesn't come as crispy as I would like. But I like their clam chowder and I love their cheesy garlic bread! Overall, I've eaten at the Crab Pub twice, and I've loved both experiences, and I will definitely come back for their seafood. I'm very picky about where I go to eat seafood for fear of getting sick and this place is a safe bet

Shoots Beer & Tacos understood the assignment…read more I ordered the fish and shrimp taco combo because choosing just one felt emotionally impossible. Both were fantastic, but the shrimp taco absolutely stole the show. I'd happily start a fan club for that taco. Then there was the Mango Tajín beer...tangy, sweet, spicy, refreshing, and basically summer in a glass. Whoever thought of putting those flavors together deserves a high five. The ordering is easy cafeteria-style, but don't panic--you don't have to awkwardly balance a tray while searching for a table. Just order, grab a seat, and they'll bring everything to you. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it's dog-friendly (major points), and parking was surprisingly painless. Great tacos, fun drinks, easy parking, and dogs are welcome? That's what I call a quadruple threat. I'll definitely be back...mostly because I'm pretty sure that shrimp taco and I have unfinished business.

Service was slow at times, and it honestly felt like our table may have been seated outside of our server's typical section, which could explain some of the delays. That said, Ada was absolutely lovely--knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely wonderful whenever she was with us. Unfortunately, the wine arrived warm, which was disappointing, and the meal itself was very mid. The Gemelli pasta was so bland. For the price and the reputation, I expected the food to be much more memorable. Overall, the service from Ada was the highlight, but the pacing, warm wine, and average food made the experience fall short of what I was hoping for.

It's become a place that my husband and I return to, and take our visitors. My mouth is savoring at the thought of the fish and chips.

I sat inside which is a deceiving statement. The space has a roof on it but, as designed, the entrances are wide open and not much different than sitting outside. So why sit inside? Because you can opt for the counter/bar seating or because you want to watch the baseball game airing on the big screen. Many beers are offered here, and the satisfying Harland Nelson West Coast IPA was chosen. Accompanied by a Toro Handroll ($12), Musubi ($8), and Bang Bang Cauliflower ($8), this made a satisfying light meal for two. Despite fully consuming them, the food offerings didn't wow us. Some additional wasabi, ginger, and I know not what would amp up the flavor profiles and be more personally satisfying to me. But still? I liked the place and left saying that I could see returning. Nice vibe and perfect for a cold beer and a simple, small something to keep your stomach from grumbling.

This place sells their "normal" lobster roll for $30 each. I know prices on everything have gone through the roof (thanks, Iran War) but that is a lot of money. I have no complaints whatsoever about the roll. For the "normal" roll (that's what they call it), there was plenty of lobster and it was great. The toasted buttered bread is especially delicious. But for the price....$30 is basically the cost of a meal at a sit-down restaurant. So you always have to balance quality, quantity, and price. Incidentally, on the menu, there is no reference to "Maine" versus "Connecticut" style rolls. (My understanding is that the lobster in a Maine roll is cold and is dressed with mayo while the Connecticut lobster is served warm and is more buttery.) The video screen above the counter to this place mentions you can order it either way. The menu should also say this but whatever, this is just an FYI. If you don't specify a style, you will get the more popular Maine roll. I saw a number of people getting lobster rolls so apparently others are willing to spring the big bucks for this dish. It is delicious but you decide if it is worth it for you.
