Looking at the menu, I got a weird vibe this place is trying to offer a little bit of a lot of…read moredifferent cuisines; BBQ and Mexican for sure, but also Korean, Middle Eastern. And I have to say I think this is lack of singular focus on just one type of food and offering too many different items is probably what leads to some of their stuff tasting meh to horrible. First, the shareables. The elote fries were completely bland. The fries themselves were soggy and limp (they're called fries, for crying out loud) and despite there being plenty of toppings, none of the toppings worked together. This dish was absolutely awful. Their chips and guac were fine. The guac was nice and limey. The chips were actually quite crispy and well-seasoned, which made no sense to me given the fries were the opposite. Maybe they outsource their chips. Entree-wise, we had tacos, both meat and vegetarian. Meat-wise, the pulled chicken was awful, super dry meat and yet the tacos were soaked through, I have no idea how they pulled that off, so it was pretty inedible. The beef one, which is a recent special, just tasted...wrong. Not sure how to describe it, other than it just left a bad taste in my mouth. The fried fish was actually okay. For the vegetarian options, the falafel was also very off. Something weird about their seasoning, it's just not like your typical falafel so idk what's going on there. The sweet potato and seasonal veggie ones were pretty good, though. Tortillas overall were fine but when you have to double-stack them, and the fillings still soak through, making actually eating them a form of labor, something is not working with how you are building your tacos. Service - everyone seemed friendly enough. Overall - pick a different taco place to get food from.

My husband got a 10inch burrito. It was really flat, barely thicker than a quesadilla. It was honestly kind of expensive comparing it to cost of a burrito at my local Palo Alto spot. It was also overly salty and did not taste authentic. Drinks: The slushy mango margarita was solid. Service: The free chips and salsa were nice. However, we did not get plates so it was messy when the chip and salsa dropped. No one collected our payment at the end and we walked up to the counter to pay. Will not return.

Ordered a pina colada. Creamy and amazing. Usually we order a starter of queso blanco to go with the chips as I'm not a red sauce/salsa eater. Theirs was thinner than average, but still a great flavor. I had the Quesabirria without onion and double rice and my partner ordered the Chile Colorado. He asked for "hot" but said it wasn't very spicy. Otherwise we were very happy and the food was delicious.

I was not very hungry but I got the flautas for $7, which was a great deal... You get three of them. They give us free chips and salsa to start which is always nice. My fiance ordered a large margarita and it ended up being huge, so be aware, lol ... They also offer a small and medium size. He got the seafood burrito and enjoyed it a lot. I also got a horchata ($5) which was a bit expensive but very delicious, a lot of places use mixes and you can tell that this place does not. Overall I would come back here when in the Grand Haven area, waitservice was fast and friendly as well.

I appreciate not feeling like we're bothering the staff and keeping them. Service: Always top notch. They are efficient with serving the food, refilling drinks, and bring chips and salsa nearly as soon as you sit down. Food: I've tried quite a few things here and loved it all. The food I got most recently was a type of taco that you dip. The flavor was beyond amazing, though it definitely had a little kick to it. (I do not do spicy food, but the server said it wasn't spicy. If you're like me, it is a bit spicy). Ambiance: They have fun booths and decorations around the restaurant and always have upbeat Mexican music playing. It's usually somewhat busy, but as we go during off hours, never too full. And, we've never had to wait to be seated, which we really like.

I've been at the GH location in the past, but this is my first visit to the Shell Station (next door) location. I ordered "The Original Beef & Bean" Came to a bit north of $10 with tax. To be honest, it was OK, nothing spectacular to say about it. It wasn't very spicy, the meat portion was small and it had some lettuce. Glad I went, but not in a hurry to go back. On a positive note, it was a very nice, clean restaurant with great service.
