    Red Snapper and fries
    Frank P.

    I stumbled upon Tony's at the Oceanside farmers market. I'm glad I did. I got the Red Snapper, which came with fries and a drink. I've never had Snapper, and it was delicious. They also season the fries to perfection. I really wanted catfish, but they were out. I'll have to get there earlier next time. This seems to be a mom and pop business. I really like supporting the little guy. They are super friendly and really appreciate the business. It shows the way they treat you.

    The fish was old and not fresh. The french fries had a bad after taste. The order was in one of those " Card board" containers that get soggy. Not only that..... they put the cold drink in the bag with the hot food. By the time I got home....... the card board container was very moist and lost its stability. Lining the bottom of the container with " Deli Sheets" will help if " Styrofoam" containers are not used. Fries taste a lot better and fresher with cleaned frying oil in a clean fryer. Maybe add a little french Fries seasoning once fries are done. Not impressed. Food was not good.

    Swai with coleslaw, shrimps and fries. High recommend!

    They had a pop-up at a gas station near my house. I love supporting local businesses so I had to place an order. The lady and gentleman that helped me with the order were very nice. I had an order of Swai (they were out of cod), coleslaw, fries and I added the extra shrimp for five dollars. Obviously the food was freshly made. Everything was very delicious. I'm glad I added the extra shrimps for five dollars because it was very good. For $25 I thought it was a very generous amount of food, enough for two people for sure (see image). Hope they keep it up!

    Very yummy & they are really good people too. After the first time, we came back twice all within 2wks lol

    Snapper and french fries.
    Golden Girl ..

    I've driven by here a few times and always saw they had a crowd, so I decided to stop. I should've kept driving. First off, the snapper was not fresh. Fresh fish is not supposed to have a fishy taste. Then they need to change their grease because no way the fish should be this color on the outside but still soft on the inside. You can literally see the tiny black flakes from the fish grease being old. Lastly, to charge $20 for 2 small pieces of fishy tasting pieces of fish, a handful of frozen french fries, and a can of soda is absolutely diabolical.

Came in a few days ago and had the shrimp, mac n cheese, potato salad. My friend had the shrimp too with side of Turkey & cabbage and rice and gravy. We both enjoyed everything except the potato salad. Potato salad was sweet and made with relish (not our style of potato salad we prefer) The shrimp was delicious, large, seasoned and fried well. The catfish was good but not as good as the shrimp. They mac & cheese was the best I've had!!! We also had the peach cobbler and it was soo very tasty. My only regret is not getting it with ice cream. 2 days later I went back with my kid to try the chicken tenders, fries, egg rolls, and get some more Mac & Cheese. Chicken & fries were seasoned good. I just wish they had an option for spicy seasoning. The Mac & Cheese we fought over and it was gone quick. We'll be back for the mac&cheese, shrimp, and cobblers! Delicious!!

I ordered that with a side of mac and cheese. $20 later I was given a plate with what looked like a delicious sandwich and Mac and cheese. I went to pick up the sandwich and the bottom bun must have had that meat sitting on it for 10 min.. It was completely soggy and had to use a fork to try and eat the meat which had a substantial amount of fat I should have taken it back. The Mac and cheese my kid lives.. He took one bite and didn't eat any of the rest.. I didnt either. . It was Luke warm.. And very little of any flavor. Comon guys.. If you're gonna have $20 sandwich out there.. Make it memorable.

We tried the pulled pork sandwich and the smoked beef sandwich. They were both terrific and you get an absolutely MOUND of meat with both dishes. The BBQ sauce used was a tad sweet but not too sweet. Both proteins were incredibly tender and juicy. We also tried the mac and cheese and beans and, as with the meats, you get a ton of whatever side you order (you get one side per plate). The mac was a little dry but still delicious. The beans were smoky and OUT OF THIS WORLD TERRIFIC. I'm not kidding. These are life-changing beans, if there can be such a thing. Frequently parked outside the Lost Abbey in San Elijo, this is a truck you want to check out. The food was served very quickly after ordering so no long wait like with most food trucks.

If you're looking for a lighter meal, it can easily be shared between two people, or stretched into lunch and dinner for one. The garlic paste is strong, so I'd order it on the side if you don't want something too garlicky (I'm the same way). Ordering and getting your food is quick and easy, and the falafel is great too -- not dry at all. Consistent, tasty, and perfect for a quick pickup meal in South Park.

I wasn't even planning on getting mariscos that day but it felt like a sign so I took it as a little treat. It's a food truck setup with folding tables and chairs and a pretty big parking lot since the plaza itself is kind of dead. Parking was easy and there was plenty of space. I walked up and they were doing construction on the tent right above where you order and it was really loud. I feel like that could've been done during closing because it disrupted the vibe. The area is already a little rough so it just made things feel a bit off. The lady working was super sweet. She took my order, you pay right after and they do accept tap to pay which I love because I don't carry cash. They take your name and call you when it's ready. I got mine to go, waited about 10 minutes, and everything came out pretty quick. They packaged everything really well too which I appreciated because aguachile can easily spill. For the tostada they gave two packs of saltines and three tostadas which felt like a good portion. They also had fresh salsas at the truck but I skipped them since my taco already came with sauce. I ordered a fish taco and an aguachile verde tostada. I went home excited to try everything but honestly it didn't really hit for me. The fish taco was a good size with a lot of cabbage and a white sauce, but the fish was a little too soft. I wish it had more crisp and overall the flavors just weren't memorable. It's about $3.70 so fair, just nothing standout. The aguachile verde was the weakest part. Some shrimp textures were off and a few had a strange aftertaste. I've had a lot of aguachile recently and this was probably the lowest quality. I will say they were generous with the avocado and the sauce itself had a nice spicy kick, it just didn't come together overall. There was also an earthy note from the seeds that was very prominent which I have never experienced in aguach For the price, I paid around $20 with tip for both which isn't bad for the portions. It satisfied the craving in the moment but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to come back to.
