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...!!!

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.

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.

Birria Noodles
Mia G.

Portioning has improved a tremendous amount! Flavor is still great & my favorite are the potato and cheese taco thingys lol I didn't get a full picture of their queso and chips but it is DELICIOUS

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.

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
Ida R.

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.

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

Sure, you will find plenty of tacos and…read moreburritos at nearby restaurants, but Taqueria el Guero's tortillas are handmade, while others use packaged Mission tortillas and the meat is seasoned to perfection. 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.

A must-stop, in Pismo Beach!…read more Every time we return to Pismo Beach, we have to make a stop at Zorros for breakfast (they are open for lunch and dinner too)! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by Eric at the door -- and it's always nice when the first person you see makes you feel welcome. He walked us to our table, chatted with us, and even remembered us from 7 months ago, including where we sat! It seems like remembering guests is a theme in this town, and we love that hometown feeling. This visit, I made sure to take photos of the food, and we also left with a bag full of their homemade salsa and hot sauce. I only wish they sold these at grocery stores back home in Los Angeles because we would definitely buy them! Thankfully they ship!!! Melissa was our server and was wonderful -- friendly, attentive, and very accommodating with my husband's dairy allergy. My husband ordered the vegetarian burrito, and wow... it was packed with fresh green veggies you could literally see through the tortilla - my see photos! I asked Melissa for a recommendation between the shredded chicken burrito and the carne asada burrito, and she suggested the carne asada. I took her advice and ordered it as a wet burrito with sour cream -- and it did not disappoint! We love the friendly service, the homemade flavors, and the welcoming atmosphere at Zorros. We're already looking forward to our next visit to Pismo Beach and another breakfast here!

I opened Apple Maps and…read morechecked the pismo beach area and Ventana Grill was the first restaurant that stood out to me based on location, therefore, I made a reservation. Note that the parking lot, depending on which day you go, can fill up very quickly. The location is right off of the 101 and easy to find. 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. Everything was exceptionally good. My only takeaway would be that I found the food, especially the lobster Mac and cheese to be pretty salty. Definitely excited for my next visit.

We had a reservation for a birthday dinner and arrived about 30 minutes early. We were told we'd be seated closer to our reservation time, which was completely understandable. However, as we waited, we watched several groups (including walk-ins without reservations) get seated before us. Even after our reservation time had passed, we had to check in with the host again before we were finally seated, despite there being plenty of empty tables. The service at the front definitely could have been handled better. The food, on the other hand, was very good with a great variety of options. I loved that they start you off with freshly made tortillas, cinnamon butter, and salsa to share. I ordered the Campechana de Mariscos, which was fresh, generously portioned, and perfect for sharing. We also had the Molcajete, and it was delicious! It came with a great mix of steak, chicken, chorizo, jumbo shrimp, nopal, and cheese. The portion was generous and easily enough for two people. Other dishes we ordered also included the pozole, chicken nachos, and lobster mac and cheese. Everything was delicious as well! The mac and cheese especially. For drinks, I tried the Golden Hour nonalcoholic cocktail, and unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend it. It tasted like watered-down ginger beer with no carbonation and only the faintest hint of pineapple. It was more on the bitter taste. Overall, this is a great restaurant for the ocean views and flavorful food. The portions are generous, and there's something for everyone on the menu. The only downside was the host service and the unnecessary wait despite having a reservation. I'd still come back for the food and the scenery.

Food comes out & visually the fish tacos look like some tex mix version- beans & corn with chunks of grilled fish on top. Husband said they were okay, but the fish kept falling out of the tacos because of all the other fillings & he didn't like their tortillas. The butter beef was..not great. Really greasy, to the point I didn't quite finish the second out of three tacos. Tried to soak up some of it with a napkins to no avail. & agree with hubby, tortillas not great. The best of the night was the potatoe tacos- crispy shells with smooth potatoes, lettuce, tomatoes & cheese. Guacamole on the side was good. Don't think we'll be back.

I waited 45 minutes and paid $6 dollars for this piece of crap (will attach a pic) i got the vegetarian taco, which you would think they could at least add some cheese to it for flavor but nope. Also, for a place called "The gril", you would think that the vegetables WOULD actually be grilled, but no, they were not. The rice was dry, and the beans had no flavor. I literally could not eat it and left half of it there. My server felt so bad she insisted on not taking a tip. So because of this crappy company, my server did not get a tip. I would have insisted, but I didn't have cash, and she would not allow me to add a tip to my card charge because she knew I waited 45 minutes for a fu*king vegetable taco ‍ Honestly, I think they screwed up and forgot, because there's no way it should have taken that long, and she knew that....she kind of flinched and grimaced, and she said "I'm sorry, I think they got backed up" and kind of rolled her eyes as if to say, I think they fu*ked up, she even said quietly to me "I think maybe they forgot". This was for the live music event on Friday, 6/19 at Claiborne & Churchill. The music was great, The servers/ wine stewards were amazing, but the food was horrible. At least my taco was. if I ever see La Parilla serving food again anywhere I am, I will not order anything! BLECH. Oh, also I asked for no onions, and they couldn't even get that right. In one of my pictures, you will see onions that I pulled aside on the plate. I could have pulled aside more, but I was wolfing down what I could after waiting 45 miinutes for a frigging shit*y vegetarian taco that was crap when I got finally got it. NOT worth the wait. No cheese, no sour cream, no guacamole....just dry rice, flavorless beans, and a few pieces of bell pepper, plus onions - which I asked to NOT HAVE. What a pathetic, underflavored, overpriced taco. Ironically, I drove by Hannah's tacos food truck earlier, and I should have just bought some tacos from them. They are, I think $3 per taco, and 10 times better than this crap was
