We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon after checking out some of the nearby bars. This is one of those "self serve" locations. You stand in line, order your food and they bring it to you. I ordered two fish tacos along with a $3 miller draft. Tacos are alright. Portion could have been better but it tasted decent. There's a decent amount of seating inside, along with the back patio that connects to the arcade next door. read more

I think this would be a fun place to come listen to music and drink at. To me, it wasn't great food. I got a shrimp taco that was lacking in flavor and shrimp. The chips and salsa didn't seem homemade. I don't think I'd return. read more

Shawn chill vibes. Wanted to sit on the back patio but I didnt wanna eat my food while someone was smoking by me. Bloody Beer was mediocre & not the full presentation as describe. I did enjoy the kick. The 3 tacos I tried were all pretty good. Brisket Taco, Shrimp Taco, & Mac & Cheese Taco. My fav is a tie between brisket I shrimp taco. read more

Ocean Street Tacos earns a solid 4 stars for its tasty offerings and relaxed atmosphere. We tried the surf and turf, steak, chicken thigh, and brisket tacos. The meats were flavorful and cooked well, but I wish the tacos were more generously filled--at $5-$7 each, they felt a little light for the price. The place has a great selection of beers on tap, perfect for pairing with your meal. There's a cool outdoor seating area in the back that adds to the charm, but it was closed for a private event when we visited on New Year's Eve. The front seating area is a bit limited, so it seems like they usually depend on the back space for more dining options. The vibe is very much bar-style, with decor to match. The food came out quickly, and the front service was polite and efficient. Overall, it's a nice spot to grab a bite and a drink--just wish the tacos had a little more substance! read more

I work down the street from this place and finally got a chance to grab some lunch from here. From the signs outside it seems like there are 2 entrances but one is to the bar next door.... They politely corrected me and directed me to the correct door lol. I called in to place my pick up order. The line was a bit of a wait since there wasn't a separate to pick up line but that's fine. I got to look at the cool art on the walls. The steak quesadilla was ok. The steak had great flavor but was extremely chewy. Happy to have tried another downtown spot. read more

Food was okay, not bad or anything but not amazing. I got chicken tacos. I'm really confused though with the tipping. This is not a full service restaurant or anything, I ordered at the counter just like at a McDonald's so I selected no tip on the pin pad. Why was my total updated to include a tip if I didn't order any alcohol. is tipping required here and I missed a sign? read more

Tried Ocean Street Tacos and grabbed three tacos: brisket, mac & cheese, and ground beef. Portions were solid and definitely filling. The flavors were pretty simple, but still enjoyable. The restaurant itself (and even the takeout bag) is a whole vibe -- super cute and fun atmosphere. With a little more depth in the seasoning, this spot could really stand out. Overall a cool place with good portions and a great vibe. read more

Cool spot. I like the music and the vibe. Tacos are pretty good too. Shrimp, brisket and Hawaiian hit the spot. Not as filling as you would hope for, order three if you're a full grown man but definitely tasty. read more

Cute little spot in downtown with overall pretty good tacos. We got the steak, ground beef and shrimp tacos and the shrimp tacos were by far the best. This places definitely didn't short you on the meats lol definitely will be back! read more

The place is not for me as a sober girl to eat in but I was happy to get my tacos to go. Service was good even though the person seemed to be working the counter and serving solo. The ingredients tasted fresh and the flavors were good on both the beans and the grilled chicken. I wish the actual tortilla was better but maybe it was out of a package? That would be my only suggestion is to get fresh tortillas it could have been the time of day I was there? It was late evening on a Thursday. read more

Stop by for lunch and got a shrimp, fish, and Hawaiian pork taco ($18). Tacos came out in about 10 minutes. All the tacos were good with the shrimp and fish being my favorite as they were perfectly seasoned. One of the flour tortilla was a bit to hard but besides that a good experience. Staff was friendly and the interior/ambience inside is chill. Food(50%): 8.0 Staff/service(25%): 7.0 Value(25%): 6.0 Overall: 7.2/10 read more

The back porch area is great! Vibrant and great murals! The taco was ok. The piece of fish was so small and the tortilla was entirely too large for it. The boom boom sauce was good but was hard to taste the fish since it was so small. Our waitress was great! Friendly and efficient. read more

Nice hole in the wall spot with a great patio/night time vibe! The tacos were amazing but a bit on the pricey side. $(7)) for a tiny taco. The margaritas were worse. The tiny cup I was given was 2.5" in height and diameter for $8. But the tacos were bussin! 50/50 if I would come back again. Maybe for a happy hour read more

What a great new addition to the Ocean Street Taco Familia and downtown area..."Ocean Street Tequila", " and it's right next door! Formerly this location was 1904 Music Hall. Its interior was renovated and is super spacious for events and large groups. Drinks are great too along with the friendly and professional staff working here. One can enjoy some delicious tacos, quesadillas, etc from Ocean Street Tacos next door and dine while at this new location. Cool and talented area Dj's are playing those body movin' tunes on certain nights. Check out their social media page on Instagram: https:// instagram.com/oceanstreettequila? igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA== for updated schedule of events. Hope to see you there soon and CHEERS! read more

Food was bland for a so said taco spot. If you want tacos you can make at home for $6+ a taco come here. Lacking in all aspects

I met hubby at Ocean Street Tacos for Happy Hour recently. We had a couple beers and shared a few tacos. We ordered 2 mac & cheese tacos, 1 Hawaiian pork taco and 2 brisket tacos. I wasn't a huge fan of their tacos. They all had a very similar taste to me. The mac & cheese taco was probably the best of the 3. The Doritos on top were good for crunch. The Hawaiian pork taco was decent. I thought the pineapple chunks should have been smaller. The brisket wasn't as tender as I wanted it to be and I didn't like the BBQ sauce much. Ocean Street Tacos is mediocre at best. Not sure if we will go back since there are so many other options in Jax. read more

Open late! Friendly service! Beer and mixed drinks available. Tacos are great for the beer munchies. Pork, chicken, steak and shrimp tacos were good! Spicy Mac & chesse (one side) was free with a purchase of three tacos. That was pretty good as well with a small kick! Would definitely be back for a late night taco after a night out. read more

I was in town from Los Angeles on a business trip, decided to try this place and would recommend it. The food was good, I got the Shrimp, Brisket and surf n turf taco, get the chips with queso, the guacamole I don't recommend. The service and ambience was great, but the best part is the the very inexpensive drinks, I expected them to be trash for the price but they are not, get some tacos but load up on the drinks you will get 3 for the price of one at the hotel I stayed in. Tip to restaurant, some good homemade salsa for the chips and tacos will good to have on the menu read more

The tacos were great. Ayesha and I came to dine here after a Yelp event around the corner. We both got three tacos and you get a side for free. She had spicy Mac n cheese for her side. She also had a margarita that looked good. I had a fish taco, a Keto taco and a brisket taco with chips and queso as my side. The tacos were delicious. I had a water with my meal. My only complaint was the queso cheese was not too good. I did not eat it. I should of asked for something else, but we were so busy talking. Lol This is located in the former Spliff's location. Spliff's moved to the corner about two doors down. Pros:the service was great. The tacos were wonderful. Atmosphere was very warm and relaxing. Cons: queso needs to be checked. I will come back and write another review when I go. read more

Bar tenders were rude, tacos are a sad excuse for a 'street taco'. The tortillas came out hard and stale. A tiny scoop of dry meat. And to top it off it was the driest taco ever. Definitely terrible hipster tacos read more

The staff was very friendly. Horrible food, $7 a taco is criminal. Like the owner needs to be locked up. This is literally the worst food I have ever eaten. Lower the prices or hire a Mexican to cook better food. read more

I found this cool taco spot on Yelp, of course, and decided to stop by while in the area. I loved the vibe when we walked in, trendy, cool, and island vibes with reggae music playing--my type of laid-back vibe. Menus are located in a steel bakery near the entrance. You order and pre pay at the counter, sit where you choose and then someone brings your food out. The staff was very friendly and the service was great. I never had to ask for anything additional. I ordered a spicy mango margarita that was delicious! I also tried their 3 tacos and a side special. I have never had tacos so loaded before, anywhere! You will definitely get your money's worth. My food was delicious as well. The spicy mac n cheese is a must try if you like heat, which I do! My companion ordered the pictured chips and queso that she didn't eat b/c in her opinion it tasted like store bought jarred queso and chips. However, I declined to try them so I cannot attest to that. I would recommend this spot to anyone who loves tacos and margaritas, and they stay open pretty late. read more

I ordered the mac and cheese taco, the brisket taco and the Hawaiian taco. The brisket taco was 85% cabbage and 10% sauce with the smallest bit of meat. Hawaiian was not good and was also a lot of cabbage. Barely any pineapple and it looked old and dried out. Mac and cheese was my fav probably cause it was different and I like mac and cheese and it had the most meat. Also ended up getting extremely sick after eating here. Do NOT recommend read more

Your bartender is rude! On the afternoon of 11/23/25 2 of my co workers & I entered this establishment, it was our 1st time there. The restaurant was empty, not one customer. We were not greeted. We stood there until we just sat our selves all while the bartender is standing there just looking at us like we're pests. Once we sat, we looked around to see if there was a server or anyone & the bartender yells out "The menus are at the front you can grab them" so we do that. One of my co workers then asked her about certain type of drink choices & w/o even looking up to acknowledge her she points her finger up at a menu & says w/ an annoyed tone "They're up there". We then decide we would go else where. On the way out I said to her "If you did not want us here, that's all you had to say". She did not say anything, just stood there and looked at me. I took her picture. The whole interaction from walking in to walking out was weird. We are POC so not sure if she's racist or just a Piece of Sh*t to everyone. read more

Cute space nice looking bar. However, when we came the kitchen was completely overwhelmed and had no food except seafood. Tacos came out with no toppings. The ladies severing were doing their best - but offered no apologies. A lot of normal beers were out. About to see a show near by Florida theater- prime time to be here. Complete failure. Management needs to be on this. read more
