    I want to warn others about my experience here because it raised serious concerns for me. I came in, sat down, and ordered a quesadilla. The food was okay, but the service was very inattentive. I actually had to ask someone just to take my order. When I finished eating, I asked for the bill and paid using Apple Pay. At no point during payment was I asked if I wanted to leave a tip or given the option to choose one. After I asked for the receipt, I noticed that a 20% gratuity had already been added to my bill. I never agreed to leave a tip, especially considering the service I received. When I asked the employee about the charge, he hesitated and couldn't clearly explain it. I also want to make it clear that there was no visible sign anywhere in the restaurant, on the door, or on the menu stating that a 20% gratuity would automatically be added. Customers should be informed of mandatory charges before they order or pay. Adding a 20% gratuity without clearly informing customers beforehand is extremely concerning. Without proper disclosure, it feels deceptive and comes across like a scam and a form of theft. Businesses should be transparent about any automatic charges. Because of this experience, I will not be returning.

    Really good food on the boardwalk, also great service despite being very busy. We appreciate they put a couple tables together for our big group!

    Great location by the boardwalk. Service was exceptional and the food was great. I ordered the Taco platter and it came with a whole Elote corn! Pricing here is very affordable considering their location. I would definitely return!

    We stayed at the hotel right next door to this place so we came to grab a bite to eat since it's at a prime location the food was ok definitely not your traditional Mexican food like they have it advertised especially since I'm Mexican from Los Angeles it's not even close they do stay busy and are in a prime location and to have nice cold beer so that's pretty cool you can sit by the beach eat and have a few drinks

    I'll stop by this restaurant to eat tacos I ended up ordering a pizza. We'll see how it tastes. The drinks are pretty cool. The pizza was better than expected. I don't have to have it again though.

    Not al pastor, not even sure it's pork. Couldn't even eat it. Unfortunately took it to go. So can't even tell them.

    Don't know what i got, but rotten pinapple and some meat not seasoned or colored like any al pastor i've ever seen.

    Beef tacos

    The best tacos I've ever had! Came back down from PA to have them again. Delicious Would highly recommend the beef tacos

    Lukewarm coconut water in coconut

    The servers are nice and attentive but the food and drinks... 2 outta 4 food and drinks are safe to eat, and only one drink is considered good. The two of us got the Coconut Water in Coconut, Pineapple Colada, Pineapple Jalapeño Wings and Roasted Corn Elliot. The only good item was the pineapple Colada. It was icy and the shot of rum was in a separate tube, and it tasted fresh. The "Roasted" Corn Elliot is apparently boiled and was drizzled with some sauce and cheese, but at least it's consumable. Coconut water is lukewarm and tasted weird, we returned the first one and was offered a second one and it tasted the same, so we just asked the server to take it out of our bill. The pineapple jalapeño wings... The meat was solid and fell off the bones like legos. Not like it was cooked nicely to fall off, but more like the wings were old or recooked and the texture tasted weird. There is also no Jalapeño on sight, but the pineapple chunks were fresh. I know the food at the beach is not gonna be good, but this is not even consumable. Seems like the only thing safe to get is the Pineapple Colada...

    Enchiladas

    Margaritas are strong but so good! Only needed one to feel it! Queso and chips were decent, the queso was not what I was expecting. The quesadilla on the other hand... amazing 10/10. So much protein and flavor. Enchiladas, were delicious! Guac was amazing! Service was good and they were always attentive. Atmosphere was also good, it's right on the broadwalk and good view of the beach and other places.

    Grilled shrimp pizza
    Darby C.

    Looking for some satisfyingly tasty Mexican food? Look no further. This place is located on the Hollywood beach broadwalk. Prices are very reasonable and the food was incredible. The lobster tacos platter was $16 and came with street corn with garlic aioli and cheese. Refried beans and rice were also served. The lobster was deep-fried in cubes. Real lobster meat and so good. Grilled shrimp pizza was also very good. Thin crust pizza topped with cheese and grilled shrimps. Nice depth of flavors, and you get some pickled veggies to put on top. The service was friendly. The food took a bit longer, but it was well worth the wait. Nicr beachside seating area and great for people watching. One big surprise on the bill was the automatic 20% gratuity. That seems very excessive, maybe to make up for lower prices. I recommend coming here if you are looking for some filling and delicious Mexican food.

    Don't do it. Not worth it. Everything was bad. Go anywhere else. Service was good though.
