Wow! was looking for just a good taco and I found a Amazing Taco and MORE! We lucked out as well as Ashley one of the owners was there and just we talked food as it was so fresh and everything made in house. Okay to say this is some of the freshest well made just... wow. All the salsa, just fresh and delicious, you could smell the fruit from the tomatillo. Fresh Chicharróns!!! SO Yummy and I got a side of her Peruvian beans that were light and just full of flavor. Everyone is going crazy with Birria Tacos and this place delvers. The consume alone you could drink. Everywhere else I have gone was just so fatty, this had the clean taste of a great soup, and was perfect for the Red Taco from which this place has it's name, which again Tortilla made in house! I could go on, Vampiro Carnitas, Octopus Fries, fresh AF guacamole and chips. Just go! So good,.

Food... rock'n! Service...friendly and prompt! Ambiance...fun! This is a very cool spot. You gotta try their puffy tacos!

First time coming to this establishment, been wanting to come since the first open but then they had to close down for repairs located . I ordered the Carnitas ,Asada and Burris very tasty. The consommé was pretty good. I even sipped it like a cup of soup. The lady at the counter was helpful in helping us choose what ti choose from menu. Very colorful art on the walls like it's a party in Mexico. I know although I enjoy a very crunchy taco some mushy. I still enjoyed it. Glad we were able to make it in and give them some business support your local small business whenever possible. They're not stingy on stuffing their tacos.

Update: I tried the quest burrito with chicken, all the ingredients are well seasoned on their own. I couldn't tell you which I liked more the chicken the beans or the rice! Also tried the birria tacos 10/10 love them!! And a 'spicy' Elote cup. Honestly nothing here is spicy to my personal preference but I can eat some seriously spicy foods.. try if you dare yourself. I truly love the flavors of the food but nothing here is spicy by me. Located in the heart of downtown Pismo Beach! With giant red letters TITOS you can't miss this place! Walking in you see modern urban decor--so fun and bright! So looking over the menu it has so much to offer, but I want to try something unique but recommended. What I got was their Birria Vampiros- (2) baked corn tortilla topped with grilled cheese choice of meat, cheese, lettuce, Pico de Gallo, topped with a baked corn tortilla. After ordering, I started to see more around, there was something thick and red on the counter looked like tamarindo smoothie, in one of those drink machines you know the ones? Right friends?! I asked and I was told it's their enchilada salsa! That's cool! I had some fresh Chicharrones with salsa while I waited, I love both sauces that come with it:am I wrong for wanting to mix them? It was a soft opening and there were people eating inside and out on the patio. But I was helped right away! And the food was so fresh and tasted great! I can't wait to try more! If you try anything I eat and review here let me know what you think

At Tito's Red Tacos In Pismo Beach. Our First Time Here So Let's See How It Goes..?? We Ordered The Chicharones And Salsa Appetizer And It Was Huge. I Ordered The 3 Puffy Rolled Birria Tacos And A Dr. Pepper To Wash It All Down. My Fiancée Ordered The Red Birria Ramen...!!! Sounds Yummy I Almost Ordered That..?? But I Will Try Hers. Empty Today So Hopefully Not A Bad Sign..?? Music Is Jamming Some Good Reggaeton..!! DAMN RAMENS BOMB...!!! So Are My Tacos...!!!

Chicken Loco Fries

Husband and I ordered the chicken loco fries and also the carnitas ramen. Both were amazing! The fries were THE best we've ever tried. Fresh and crispy and loaded. The ramen was also super good. Perfectly seasoned it felt and tasted really homey and comforting. It wasn't crazy busy which was nice and the service was great too. The lady at the counter was gracious and friendly.

This is an awesome new taco spot in Pismo. Great location within walking distance of everything. The portions are big. We came in hungry probably ordered too much because we definitely did not finish anything. The original red tacos are soooo good. Lots of cheese, the chicken was delicious, perfectly seasoned. Green salsa is everything! You won't be disappointed. Had the carnitas fries. That was a meal on its own, so much flavor, the fries were crunchy and not soggy, even with all the cheese, meat and salsa. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is super friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend.

Barbara C.

Wow the food wasn't Good at all I ordered the Nochos and side taco, But no it didn't taste good the Nochos chips tasted like they were old chips and place was extremely expensive I was 3rd in Line and everyone bill rang up to $70 or $ 80 dollars wow

3 taco order - birria, chicken and carnitas. Red taco shell doesn't indicate spicy. Just a great visual.
Stephanie N.

What an unexpected surprise! Needing just a small bite until dinner, Tito's was the solution! We split a 3 taco order of carnitas, birria and grilled chicken. Excellent! Happy loud music and plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Great way to enjoy our mid day In Pismo!

Street Corn

Tito's Red Tacos is a fun Mexican restaurant in Pismo Beach with a pretty large menu with a twist. Lots of dishes with Birria beef. Had to try the Birria Ramen noodles. Birria Beef Tacos and Street Corn. Atmospheres makes you feel you could be back in Mexico at a real taco stand. You walk up And order your food and they call out your name when it is ready, all friendly staff willing to explain their menu.

Spicy Elote Cup + Red Rolled Potato Tacos
Donovan S.

Overall experience was 1.5/5. Waited at the front counter while the only guy taking orders guy was on the phone for 10 mins doing a phone order... The elote cup slapped($1 but not enough to make up for extra 40+ minute wait time for our food, when we were only one of two sets of customers at the restaurant. The fact that the food is in To-go packaging was a weird feel with the hefty price points. I got the "papas rolled red tacos" or whatever they were. $16+ for 3 mashed potato taquitos we're not IT. I've seen the responses from your 'manager' on here regarding pricing due to local restaurants and location. But if you're gonna charge that, you need to DELIVER like these other places are that charge that much. Will give another shot down the road when things may hopefully be in working in a better system.

Red tacos

Great food. Tacos were amazing and cool being colored red. If you like horchata, boy do I have the place for you to go. Stunner. Service was good. Wasn't crowded so didn't take long at all. Had a great vibe and felt like some authentic Mexican food.

Anastacia M.

Delicious unique tacos. Pick from octopus shrimp chicken or beef. Good prices. Fun atmosphere with cool decor. Good beer selection delicious guacamole. Good for a quick casual lunch.

Silly fun as a family!

Everything is fresh, made to order and 10 times more flavorful with varying levels of salsa. I came here for lunch twice during my 3-day stay here and loved every taco I had (fish, birria, carne asada and al pastor). Tuesdays- $2.50 tacos with a purchase of an agua fresca! I got the horchata and it was creamy, cinnamony and not too sweet! Order at the register and they give you a buzzer to let you know when your order is ready. The food comes out within minutes!

The al pastor burrito was packed with perfectly seasoned meat and well-balanced ingredients, while the beef cheese quesadilla was warm, satisfying, and generously filled. You can tell they put real care into both the taste and presentation. Beyond the food, the whole experience felt elevated by the atmosphere. The space has a cool, modern vibe while still feeling welcoming, and everything was spotless--it honestly looks brand new and very well maintained. It's the kind of place where you feel comfortable lingering a bit longer and enjoying your meal. The only small downside for me was that the chips and salsa were served at the same time as the main dishes. I would have preferred to have them brought out earlier as a starter, just to enjoy them before the meal arrived. Overall, it's more than just a quick bite--it's a place we'd gladly come back to for both the food and the inviting environment.

Earlier during our stay, we were at the bus stop just catty-corner from this place and later decided to stop in for a final meal before moving on to our next adventure. There were absolutely no regrets! Based on the pictures -- which don't do the food nearly enough justice - the burritos were substantial! The food tasted as if your friend's mom made it for you. And, the salsas -- ohemgee! were delicious! I'm not normally a habanero person -- but this salsa added in small dollops was the perfect complement to the menudo -- not that the menudo needed much enhancement. The broth was scrumptious and well seasoned. I could tell that the broth was home-made / hand-made as I could taste the roastedness of it. The menudo was seasoned with even proportions of garlic, mild spice, and just plain good heartiness! And...what's more, is the tripe was CLEAN! There was definitely a lot to try -- but my tummy only had room for the menudo, sadly. Service was great, staff was super friendly and helpful. This place is not to be taken for granted.

The thing that originally got me hooked on this place was their clam chowder. An ex-girlfriend brought some back for me to try, and it ended up being one of the best clam chowders I've ever had. That alone made me want to come try the restaurant in person. Now, every time I visit, it's a must-order. Honestly, it's better than any other place in Pismo Beach that claims to have the best. Zorro's is the one that actually delivers. Beyond the chowder, it's a full Mexican restaurant with a wide menu. They bring out chips and salsa to start, and they also have their own house-made hot sauce on every table, which is a nice touch. The food across the board has been consistently good. This last visit, my girlfriend had the carnitas tacos, and I ordered the shrimp diablo plate. I've also had their fish and chips, enchiladas, tacos, and burritos on previous visits, and I haven't had a bad meal yet. They also have a solid drink selection, including Mexican beers, good cocktails, and especially strong Bloody Marys and micheladas. The service has always been reliable. Even when it's busy, the staff checks in often enough to keep drinks filled and make sure you have what you need, including more chips and salsa. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and parking is pretty easy since it's all street parking nearby. You're usually only a short walk away. If you're in Pismo Beach and like Mexican food, this place is definitely worth a stop. And seriously, don't skip the clam chowder. It's the standout.

We checked in and was seated within 10 minutes at a booth that overlooked the beautiful views of the Pismo Beach coast line. Our server, a younger black woman, who told us her nickname was 'TiTi', if I'm not mistaken, was wonderful. Her personality and hospitality was infectious and exceeded 5 stars. She brought us fresh hot corn and flour tortillas with a small cup of brown sugar butter and three different salsas to try. Everything was delicious. We ordered the surf and turf special which was a jumbo shrimp on top of a filet mignon that rested on mash potatoes and a creamy/savory white sauce. We also ordered the lobster Mac and cheese.

As I noticed a table clearing, I walked up to check with the hostess to ensure we would be getting that table. The other couple took that as their cue to insists that they get the table that was being cleared. Instead of seating us, the hostess gave the excuse that there was no reservations and no naming for tables, and instead gave the now open table to the extremely pushy couple demanding a table they were 2nd in line for.
