Wonderfully introduction to the restaurant by the young ladies working approaching the closing hour. My first time here. The soft corn tacos with grilled chicken, pulled pork and shrimp topped with the corn salsa, grilled pineapple and pinto beans with avocado and cilantro were healthy and hit the proverbial spot. The cilantro lime sauce on the side pushed the flavor layering over the top in the best way. I walked in and dod take out. I will be sure to check the ambiance the next time I stop by to eat-in. loving local's summer. read more

So happy this place is still in business. The workers are young and friendly. The place is clean and not loud. The food tasted fresh. We had a slight wait after placing the order but it was not too long. read more

Did take out, the food was set up so you can see what you want. They had mahi-mahi that was so tender, it was melt in your mouth good. They have seating inside and outside of the restaurant. They even have pizza. Will try on my next visit. read more

Clean interior also with outdoor seating available. Very friendly staff. One chooses their protiens and extras in a similar manner to Chipolte, etc. Our food tasted fresh but a little bland. Next time we will get some hot sauce or such to bring out the flavors. 3 Tacos were $18.00. 3.5 Yelp Stars read more

I've really never had a blander burrito. The carnitas had no flavor and the salsa was watery. It filled my hungry belly after a day of travel, but that was about it. I was disappointed given the good reviews and how crowded the place was when we got there. read more

Saturday afternoon around 4pm,place was empty. Reviewed the menu the young girls were helpful and friendly. Ordered the steak burrito, brown rice,black beans, cheese,jalapeño and salsa. Also chicken rice bowl with all the toppings. Both were very good. Both meals lasted 2 days. Everything was fresh and a good value. On our must return list. Environment was clean, Both outside and inside. read more

This place was unexpected in a good way! We went in thinking it was a chipotle-esk taco place and it is... but not so much in a Mexican way but a Caribbean way. In hindsight this totally makes sense given the name but it was a pleasant surprise! We split a make your own burrito and an empanada. All I can say is get the grilled pineapple and tiki sauce. All meals come with chips which are good but could use salt or lime juice or something. I would say skip the empanada (we got cheesesteak) it didn't taste like much. We'll definitely be back! read more

Tiki Taco - Make your own burrito - Mexican Near Me - Brigantine, New Jersey

What an awesome find! Loved it! **In a rush? Skip to the end for my tips.** Was vacationing in AC and was looking for a local place to check out and was surprised to find a taco place that has 5 stars. So, we definitely had to check it out. It is set up like Chipotle and Moe's where you choose your food style and then choose protein and toppings. However, they have some extra goodies - churros and empanadas! OMG! So good! The food is definitely pricier than Chipotle and Moe's, but their ingredients are freshly made and great quality. So, I had no complaints about the prices. As previous reviews stated, everyone working there was super nice and helpful, from the moment you walk in and even when you leave. Also, I loved the bright colors and decorations inside. What we ordered -Rice Bowls, Salad, and tacos with different proteins (shrimp, steak, and chicken) Everything was delicious! -Empanadas - They had ground beef and beef and cheese choices and they were both delicious! -Churro - They make it fresh and you have a choice of caramel or chocolate sauce. -Every meal came with chips and salsa. The salsa was so delicious! -We had the Tiki sauce and it was good. We also tried the habanero inferno and it was indeed an inferno! Beware! Will have to stop again when I'm in the area! Jealous of those who can stop by anytime. Tips: -If you plan to order a churro, please be patient as they freshly make it for you. -Salsa for your chips and meal is pretty unlimited. They have it in individual containers in front of the register. -If you get a rice bowl and ask for a burrito tortilla on the side, do not dump everything into it unless you want a HUGE burrito. As you can see from my picture, it was a grave mistake by the kid. It's a lot of food! -If you are contemplating about getting the shrimp, you should get it! This is something you can't get at Chipotle. -If you get the tacos, you can ask for different proteins for each taco. Bathroom Tip: It's in the back of the dining area. read more

Food: You pick what you want- like a Chipotle. Pick taco (3), bowl, salad, nacho then meat and toppings. Each order comes with a little bag of chips too. - Churros!! - freshly made churros, so yummy and warm. It comes with either chocolate sauce or caramel sauce. (Chocolate sauce tasted artificial.) In an order, you get just one stick. We actually came back here again, just for churros. Service/Place: - Friendly service - Staff was masked - Location was clean read more

Tiki Taco is awesome! I love eating here because the food is fresh, delicious, and every order comes with chips! I'm vegan and my boyfriend has a few food allergies so we're always looking for a place that has many options. I love ordering their rice bowls adding tons of toppings and my boyfriend really likes their chicken quesadillas. We can't wait to come back next summer! read more

Tiki Taco - burrito - Mexican Near Me - Brigantine, New Jersey

LOVED this place! We stopped by on a Tuesday around 5 to order take out for a picnic on the beach. We got there just in time because a line did start to form. Keep in mind Taco Tuesdays. We ordered empanadas, chips & queso, shrimp tacos, chicken tacos and churros. All were amazing. The empanadas were like mini fried cheesesteaks, the tacos were build your own so can't go wrong there, and the churros were delicious. Enough said. We will be back on all our trips to Brig! read more

Tiki Taco - Tiki Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Brigantine, New Jersey

This is a beach version of Moe's. They have a ton of topping options and a good amount of protein options. You are charged based on the protein of choice and the extras you choose to add (queso and guac are extra I believe). It's super cute inside and everything tasted fresh. The only down side for me was that there isn't too much flavor going on. Everything tastes as it looks. Just your classic taco seasoning on proteins and then fresh veggies on top. Also the bill for 4 was about $60... So it's not cheap but it's on the island. So I guess you pay for the convenience. Overall, not a bad choice but be prepared to pay $$ for basic food you can make at home. read more

This place was pretty good! Reminded me of a cleaner, tastier version of Chipoltee. The lime tiki sauce is very good , as well as the spicy chorizo taco. Will definitely be back ! ! read more

The portions were large and the food tasted fresh but nothing seemed to be seasoned so it was rather bland.

Great, super casual, counter service taco/bowl/burrito spot. I had the short rib burrito bowl and it was awesome. I loved the shredded cabbage topping as well as the habanero sauce. Indoor and outdoor seating. Check this place out if you're in town. read more

What a welcome addition to Brigantine! We have hoped for a great taco joint and this place did not disappoint! I ordered the shrimp tacos and thought they were delicious! You can pick your own toppings so you can really pile on the fixins. Normally I don't like "choose your own" options bc I never know what makes a good taco (clearly I'm not the cook in my household) but the staff was super friendly and patient and offered great suggestions. So happy to have this addition to Brigantine! We will be coming here often! P.S. the inside is beautiful so when we get back to "the new normal" we will be eating here often! read more

Came here because of all the the good reviews but honestly the food is underwhelming. The portion size is VERY small. When I seen the young man measuring out the rice, cheese and salsa with a small spoon, I should have left. Everything is very expensive! A scoop of guac for $4!! The salsa, sour cream and sauces come in a mini cup. The chicken was bland. Lastly, we spent over $40 for two meals and were handed one small bag of complimentary chips. We won't be back. read more

Got 3 fish tacos that were bland and underwhelming. I had half of one and threw the other 2.5 out. Not edible.

This was our second time visiting and we're equally as happy. We ordered a burrito, rice bowl, tacos, empanadas and drinks, came out to $60 and some change. Food was fresh and tasty. I like to call it a "better chipotle" Service was good, all of the girls were friendly. Seating indoors and outdoors, picnic table style. Only downfall.. bathrooms were gnarly and that's all I'll say. read more

Drove 50 min to this place, wasn't open. If you're going to be closed, at least update your social media or Google page hours! I wanted to call before driving here but they don't even have a phone number! read more

Awesome tacos! The serving size is perfect, the choices are overwhelming at first but abundant. The employees are nice and move quickly. Some of them are really high, which is fun, but they get the job done. Like really high. read more

Omg sooo tasty. Fist came in Sunday. The ingredients fresh and flavorful. We usually get less healthy options when we visit: pizza and all sorts of deep fried foods. I decided to get some fish tacos to be healthy. It did not taste like the light healthy dinner it was. Their guacamole was fresh and chunky. We had to come back for Taco Tuesday. I tore through those tacos so fast, there was barely time for a shutter click. I hope we come here I wore time before vacation beach week is up. read more

Shared nachos and mini quesadillas with another person, it cost $20. It barely had any food on top of it. The nachos hardly had any beans, cheese or lettuce on it, it wasn't filling at all. The quesadillas were soo small, it was basically a mouth full, very disappointed. The flavor wasn't even good on either item ordered. I'm not sure if the high ratings ever had good nachos/quesadillas or if I had a bad day at this place. read more

They are a little expensive for what they give you and their quality isn't always consistent

Great local spot. Set up like a chipotle. Everything good and fresh. Great burrito. Can be a little bland so don't be afraid to use their sauces. We always take home, but there's a nice little area inside to eat. The kids behind the counter do a great job moving the line along. read more

We stumbled upon this place on an overnight stay in Brigantine and so glad we did! The food was very fresh and customizable, with large portions! The service was really friendly too! There are some picnic tables inside so we sat there to eat our food. It's a nice touch that you get chips and salsa with your meal. It's like a Chipotle, but much fresher and better tasting and with better prices! Definitely would recommend for a quick bite! read more

excellent food and service in Brigantine NJ. They move quickly and food is fresh. Try it!

Stumbled into this place after checking into our airbnb down the street. Authentic and tasty with great customer service! Fairly priced and great portion sizes, what a hidden gem on an otherwise sleepy block. Would drive over from AC just to eat here again. Fantastic! read more

I've been eating in a lot of authentic Mexican places I meant enough to know how great the food is a TIKI TACO, their set up just like chipotle but a 1,000 better and cheaper, can't wait to come to the area to go eat there again read more

We grabbed some tacos en route to the beach! Great place, lots of good options. Fresh and delicious food! Kinda like Chipotle, but better! Try it and continue to support local! read more

Basically like an island chipotle ~ delicious with a variety of diverse toppings! I would come to visit again!

Great tacos and quesadillas with your choice of protein or vegetarian. Great Guacamole! They have all the toppings and 3 levels of hot sauce. The chips with salsa were great too or you can order them with all the toppings! Don't miss the chocolate and caramel churros for dessert. read more

I've eaten there many times and it is usually great. I have to comment on my meal tonight. It was not so great. I ordered tacos and the shells were stale. The chicken didn't seem that fresh and was a bit tasteless. read more

I really like chipotle so. I was really excited to try this place out that seemed similar but kinda disappointing honestly. Customer service was great but the food it's not that tasty. It tastes like unseasoned and not a lot of flavor something was missing. read more
