I got the flour quesabirria, which was very good and went great with the consomme. The watermelon water we got was decent but definitely refreshing. 4/5, would recommend for a casual, quick option with great birria.

You start off with 2 sauces for dipping the complimentary tortilla chips. Not like Tostitos, but thick and crispy! So yummy! Watch out because the sauces have a kick. I ordered a horchata which is great with lots of cinnamon. There's so many drink options from frozen to on the rocks. Full bar is available. Now for the food... I ordered flauntas con pollo and they were perfectly fried, topped with cheese & crema. The best I ever had. My husband got a huge burrito so overstuffed that it's 2 meals. The dinners are plated with guacamole and pico de gallo. The guacamole is so delicious and feels homemade. The pico was bland and lacking something but we'll let that slide. Overall, 10/10 for ambiance, service, portion size, food taste & quality.

We saw a 1 star review on here complaining about their "delivery" meal and saying that they have…read morebeen coming to 10th ave for years but THIS was the final straw... well where are all of the other reviews that kept you coming back for years?? We also have been coming to 10th ave for years and it's a favorite for the whole family. My wife and I have been coming since we were in college and now we bring our kids. Sure maybe the food has changed over the years and gotten a little more expensive but what hasn't? We love to come for some of their special nights like Quesadillas on Wednesdays or wings on Thursdays. Their "Baby Dilla" is an unbeatable deal for the kids, I think it is $4 for a small chicken and cheese quesadilla... and the staff is always super accommodating to our little ones! You know what you're getting at 10th ave, a cold beer, good wings, chill people, and a nice night out in Belmar we will keep coming back for years to come. Hope this 5 star review balances out a ridiculous 1 star review. Sincerely, A Yelping Hand

I was visiting my friends in NJ and we ordered delivery from here. The homemade chips were sooo…read moregood. Light and crispy, think of the shell of crab rangoons but a little saltier and lighter. So good. We got the chips with salsa. Just know that the salsa has a kick to it! I got a burrito which was huge so the portions are no joke, but I also got medium salsa inside which was very hot - but I'm someone who can't handle spice or heat - so my burrito was sub par because I couldn't fully enjoy it.

Rather tough to chew and didn't melt. Did have flavor tho. Saw several dishes on the menu and probably chose the wrong one. I'd go back if I'm ever in the area, but this time was an incomplete pass.

This isn't a nice sit down spot; the interior is nothing fancy. However the tacos are solid!…read more Whenever I order tacos here I get them to-go and have never had any issues. When we picked up takeout the other night they mislabeled a few of our tacos but thankfully the order was correct. My go-to the order is the Baja mahi taco and the garlic shrimp taco. It's one taco per order but they're very filling! They give you a ton of chips with your order, so definitely not necessary to order extra, unless you want the almost famous salsa bar (which I will say is worth it...their salsa verde in particular is so good).

I stared right into her eyes as I walked in and greeted her with a smile and said hi. She just looked at me as if there was a fly on my forehead. I awkwardly stood there to read the menu and ended getting the mahi taco and the garlic shrimp taco all for a combo. Combo comes with nachos, beans and rice. I would skip this as the beans and rice were bland. They didn't add any seasoning but honestly it's kind of hard to mess rice and beans up. The chips were ok but you'd need queso cheese to compliment it which is extra. The mahi taco lacked so much flavor and the fried fish was cold. I was so disappointed but still ate since the food here wasn't exactly cheap either. Fortunately, the grilled shrimp was the come back for flavor here and saved the day. Maybe just don't order the fish from here? The chef was in an F it mood tonight? Who knows but lord knows I won't be making the same mistake twice. The salsa bar there was intriguing but the flavor and spice disappointed just like everything else on the menu. I don't think I would come back to surf taco. There's honestly so many family owned restaurants here that we'd rather support who puts more love into their food.

Even though this was my first time, I would def try other stuff along with ordering the tacos. We tried the beef empanadas and the street corn, def could skip these. My favorite was the special taco they had with 3 different types of meat, one of them was steak. That and the chorizo were the best.
