Solid taco spot close to Kings Beach. Service is quick and friendly. The prices are very reasonable. Tried the fish, chicken, and steak tacos. The fish and steak tacos were good. The chicken was bland--wish they grilled the chicken with more seasoning. Simple, friendly, and decent. Would recommend if you are looking for a quick bite. read more

Well let's start off by saying the food is 4 star. Meaning it's decently edible, but leaves much to be desired. Meat wise the asada was bland and not great. But all the other ingredients. Were good. The service is a 5 star as the staff is super nice and courteous! The building is 3 star as there is extremely limited seating. Not gunna like, the dishes in the standing area with full sinks was really off putting. I get with the design that there isn't much options otherwise, however it was not ideal or pleasant. So this one will get 4 stars. I could eat there again, I would order to go, but I did really enjoy the staff and that's predominantly why I would come back. read more

Not sure why this is called authentic Mexican food. We had tacos which were pricey with low quality. The chicken tacos were made with shredded chicken which is a first for me. Jalisco style tacos are not like this, it's more like Tex-mex food. Salsa was bland and not spicy at all. We also had a carne asada taco that was dry and not seasoned either. Was hoping to find a nice taco spot in kings beach area but I was better off going to Taco Bell. Food prep was being done in front of customers, not in the kitchen. Everyone had a tall can of beer in their hand. If the food was good I would look past all this but the food was bad and pricey. I hope whoever eats here knows that tacos are not made like that in Jalisco, this is a shame. read more

Majorly good taqueria, who would have thought it on the shores of Lake Tahoe? But Kings beach has a thriving Mexican-American community and here they come to eat. They have tacos with all the usual ingredients ranging from carne asada to cabeza (pig head meat), tacos de ceviche, Meixcan-style shrimp and octopus cocktails -- if you haven't had these, they're much better than the American version. Various kinds of homemade salsas. All in a ramshackle little ski house on the main road with ten seats inside and one table on a deck outside, with views of the lake and mountains. It may have started as mid-fifties American fake Swiss, but the utilitarian way everything is arrnaged inside is very homey, very Mexican. And if you're there when school gets out, lots of small bilingual children come over and hangout, must be the owner's family. Plus best of all, they have homemade menudo and pozole -- pork and hominy chile stew -- seven days a week! Very, very good pozole. read more

I may be a little biased as I am lucky enough to have a taco truck parked outside my work on the weekdays..but this place was really just okay. I appreciated that the lady at the counter was the only one working in this hole in the wall taco place. Prices were slightly more than the average food truck ($2.50 per taco), so the gf and I ordered tamales, one chicken, and one pork. Overall, less "corn"-tasting than usual, but a pretty good enchilada-like sauce drizzled over the top. Unfortunately those tamales got to us a bit cold, but I appreciated the effort to serve our party of 9. It was kind of like a home-cooked meal inside a kitchen. 2.5 Stars read more

Tacos Jalisco is the true definitely of a hole in the wall. You walk in and are greeted by a nice lady who's running the entire place by herself. There's only enough room for about 10 people and everything is as simple as can be. I ordered a burrito with lengua, but was left pretty unimpressed. The meat barely tasted like cow tongue and I suspect she might have just thrown in some carnitas in there. Aside from that, all you've got is rice and beans. No cheese, guac, lettuce or sour cream. Pretty unexciting, dry and lackluster burrito with low quality tortillas. Props to the lady for doing it all by herself and getting 9 plates out within 20 minutes, but the food is just unimpressive. What ever happened to hole in the walls that whip out delectable tacos for no more than a buck fifty? read more

The place is tiny. It could seat 10-15 people and the entire kitchen is right there in the dining room where 2 sisters whip up some amazing dishes.

No no no. Only seating is outdoors. Food is served on paper plates. No ice, bottled drinks come out of a refrigerator and not cold. You come inside the building and order in the middle of their sanitary kitchen area so the sinks are behind you and the grills are in front of you with a cash register in the middle. It was all very very strange. And honestly, the foods not that great. There were some people out front that told us how great it was while we were waiting in line, but we totally did not agree. We had a Carne Asada burrito And it was just all very bland beans and rice and just a little bit of meat. We also ordered a chicken quesadilla that was decent but simple and basic enough it could be made at home. We wanted some thing with a little bit of Mexican flair and decided on this place while we were spending the day at Kings Beach and frankly there are a lot of other options that we could've tried instead likely for less money. I think our overall meal was about $45. read more

This is my personal favorite Mexican spot on the N Shore. Don't come here looking for frills, thrills it bells n' whistles. This is about as downtime and authentic as it comes. Food is served on paper plated and anything, I mean anything and everything is made to order and is excellent. Enchiladas, tortas, sopas and green Chile pork are personal fav's. Order at the counter, prices are reasonable and if you want a soft drink or beer just open up the fridge and crack it yourself. They also have a dozen or so help your self salsas and hot sauces.

The pizza is absolutely the reason I keep coming back. My longtime favorite is the Soppressata pizza with hot honey drizzle. The combination of spicy, savory, and sweet is outstanding, and it might be one of the few pizzas that's just as good the next day as leftovers. On my most recent visit, we tried the Vodka Pie on the Detroit-style crust. While I enjoyed the flavors, I discovered that the Detroit-style crust probably isn't for me. Going forward, I'll stick with their more traditional crust options, which I've consistently enjoyed over the years. The beet salad is another standout. It's beautifully presented, and the fresh dill on top adds a unique touch that works surprisingly well. My only suggestion would be to increase the portion of beets a bit, as the amount felt somewhat limited compared to the rest of the dish. The beer selection is extensive, with plenty of options for almost any taste. Wine drinkers will find a handful of choices available by the glass or half bottle, which is appreciated, although none of the wines I've tried have been particularly memorable. The biggest challenge for Whitecaps continues to be the service. While I've had a few positive experiences, I've also had multiple visits where service felt inattentive and unfriendly. It often seems difficult to get someone's attention when you need something, and there have been occasions where details were overlooked, including being served wine in a visibly dirty glass. While it was replaced when brought to their attention, the lack of acknowledgment or apology left something to be desired. That said, I continue to return because the pizza is genuinely that good. Between the lake views, the casual atmosphere, the excellent beer selection, and tasty pizza. Whitecaps remains a great place to gather with friends, share an appetizer and a pizza, and enjoy a cold drink. If the service ever catches up to the quality of the food, this place could easily become a top pizza option in NLT.

The service was unfortunately slow and not the strongest part of the experience, but the drinks were delicious and well-made. The highlight of the visit was definitely the food. I ordered the locals' favorite pastrami burger, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. It was flavorful, cooked perfectly, and easily the best part of the meal. If you're visiting, I highly recommend giving it a try. While the service could use some improvement during peak times, the quality of the food and drinks makes The Grid Bar & Grill worth a visit.

The food is excellent and comes out in a timely manner. I can't promise what happens on July 4 which is probably an absolute disaster, but nothing to do with the service or the people at this Taco Bell. Everything to do with the crappy people who decide to visit a place on a holiday like that. tourists ruin a lot of good places - even Taco Bell
