    No avocado, chopped pieces of tomato and onion, and cabbage instead  of lettuce. Blegh.
    Diana R.

    I want to like this place so bad but they make it hard. Firstly, I ordered an Asada torta. It's disappointing because it just doesn't have the ingredients listed on the menu. It was extremely dry, because they didn't add any mayo (listed ingredient), but I guess they added sour cream, the "tomato and onion" is all chopped very small so all the little pieces just fall out when you try to eat it which is super annoying. It says it has avocado on it, there was no avocado in mine. And it says it has lettuce, but it has cabbage. Would not order again and wouldn't eat here again. It's such a simple order to mess up on so many things on it.

    This place is right on the beach and is a prime location for a quick bite of Mexican food in Capitola. It looks to be family-owned, so I love being able to support places like this. The service was good and the staff was very kind! I definitely thought the ingredients were very fresh, that was noticeable with every bite! I will be honest in that I wasn't really blown away with the flavors of each item, but they were still good. The quantities of food was pretty good as well, but it's worth noting it's on the more expensive side relative for a burrito and nachos, which is understandable as it's in Capitola. Overall I do think this is a solid place to stop by for some food at the beach and I would recommend them!

    Modelo Especial on tap and a cantaloupe drink.

    Was at the laundromat next door and I couldn't resist Modelo on tap while I waited. Opted for the "Supreme With Meat Nachos" with Carnitas. I enjoyed it tremendously. Perhaps I was deprived from camping, but it was off the chain. I appreciated that they offered me salsa in a squeeze bottle. They aren't about saving money. It was about customers enjoying the food! I love this place and hope to return one day. My date had the cantaloupe drink and it was refreshing. Cash only!

    Shrimp tacos chips and salsa, guacamole

    I absolutely enjoyed the food here! I ordered Shrimp tacos with a side of chips and salsa and guacamole and it was very fresh and delicious. The food was ready within 15mins and the staff were nice and friendly. They have nice terrace that has a bar setting where you can enjoy your food or drink and have a good view of the beach, it's cozy and quiet.

    Shrimp and fish tacos
    Laura P.

    The recommended getting the fish tacos. I got one shrimp and one fish tacos and totally regret getting the shrimp. The only take cash which can be inconvenient.

    Well-plated... but this is "wet"??
    Glen N.

    The prices seemed different between the outside and inside menus. My "wet" burrito ($2 more) had enough sauce to fit on my plastic knife. (See photo). I pointed this out to the server who said she would not charge for "wet". The server (from King City) was friendly. The quesadilla was thin, flavorless, and sad. The super carnitas burrito was well-plated (cilanto, tomato, onion, cabbage, avocado slice were all separate), but the burrito itself was mostly beans and tortilla. The tortilla was thick- it was like naan. The amount of carnitas would easily fit into an easter egg. $26 for a burrito, quesadilla, and 2 cans of soda? Factor in a lack of salsa bar, no chips and salsa, indoor flies from open doors, and sodas by the can: no bueno.

    Hardly made a dent in my beer before the tacos arrived.

    All the way from Tahoe and man oh man that burrito was amazing and there's parking which is a hard…read morething to find around here haha Stop on by Quick update the next day I stopped for a veggie taco the next day....BEST TACO I've ever had. Great flavor and the veggie taco has rice!! Yum Service is fast very nice as well and there are a few tables out front to sit and eat. Stop here you won't be disappointed

    Had lunch here today with the family…read more.. Pros- food was tasty. There were plenty of seats, both shaded and in the sun. Very dog friendly...including ours, there were 4 dogs in total. It's also in a cool location, several other eateries and drink spots to check out. We had 2 super burritos that were customized (one no sour cream, one no beans, both with 2 meats. The crispy beef tacos (fam favorite), and a fish taco (too spicy for me!), oh and chips and salsa. Cons- the super burritos were supposed to come with guacamole, but neither did. Didn't think about it until my son asked, but we were pretty much done eating at that point. We also had to pay for chips and salsa. Never a fan of that. The bag of chips and the salsa containers were also small. If you're going to charge, you should make it worth it for the customer(s). With tip, it was just over $70 bucks in total. Overall we all enjoyed our meal. Next time I'll look for the guacamole earlier, to make sure we get it! The location is near my son's place, so we will likely be back!
