Who doesn't love a good fish (or now offering steak and chicken) taco??!? Wahoo's has been a local staple for most of my life, a SoCal fave, as well as a fam fave. The service is always friendly, and this location is always clean with plenty of outdoor seating! If you haven't been here yet then you definitely should, I'll see you here. :) read more

Wahoo's - Seafood Near Me - Los Alamitos, California

This is my favorite location I've visited as of recent - service is great and the space feels homey. It feels less corporate, I think. I never not order the one enchilada plate ($10.49) with chicken, green sauce, white rice, and black beans. The version here is pretty generous. I felt like my single enchilada was heartier than usual and I got plenty of rice and beans. Pro move is to get extra green sauce and pour it over the bed of rice. Delish. The Maui chicken bowl is quite good too. It's a glorified teriyaki bowl with a generous portion of protein served over rice, beans, pico de gallo, and citrus slaw. If you like teriyaki flavored things - order this. It tasted exponentially healthier without all the heavy sauce. Oh! This Wahoo's has a full bar! I'm not sure if all Wahoo's do, but people were taking midday shots during the World Cup. It was wild. Anyway, perfect pit stop between errands. read more

Wahoo's - Entrance - Seafood Near Me - Los Alamitos, California

Had lunch here with some friends. Right off the bat the place has a fun, relaxed, chill, Cali vibe to it. I appreciated that they had tv's inside. I had the two fish taco plate with a salad, surprisingly the salad was better than I expected, it had zucchini and mushrooms. Everything we ordered looked fresh and tasted fresh. The service was great, we even got complimentary chips and salsa, ty Wahoos for the great service. read more

We have been to this particular Wahoo's in Los Alamitos and consistently we are pleased with their service and food. The staff (every encounter we have had) are so welcoming and appear to enjoy what they are doing. This makes our dining experience always a PLUS. Kudos to the staff and the owner of this establishment! read more

I ordered a 1988 grilled fish taco and it was absolutely disgusting. Tortillas, a chunk of dry, tasteless fish, and cabbage (I ordered it without cheese). I couldn't even eat it. The guy at the counter was very nice, so I'll give them that. Otherwise, easily the worst taco I've ever had. read more

The location is super nice and love the vibe and music. The service was amazing! I would give the staff 5 stars. Customer service was top tier. But unfortunately the food was not that good. Presentation wise yes but it just was missing flavor. The rice and beans tasted kinda like out of a can/ or minute rice. I ordered the fish tacos and they were ok. Felt like they needed more seasoning. They did have a station with a variety of sauces but usually fish tacos come with their special sauce. Overall the 3 stars are because of the food. Once again place is beautiful and clean just the food didn't hit. read more

Underrated gem of a place if you're craving some fish tacos or Californian-fusion Mexican food! I love the salsa bar they have so you can try all the different sauces, and the menu has a little bit of everything if you're craving a bowl, salad, or a taco / burrito, or even fries or onion rings. The staff member taking my order was super nice and was patient while I was looking through the menu options. I love the chicken salad and the fish tacos and will be back to try some more things! read more

Just enjoyed my Mother's Day Luncheon here! It was a wonderful experience! Thank's to my sons and their bringing my Grandkids to celebrate with me! The servers were so accommodating especially needing to make changes because of my grandson's food allergies! Took back what was served and brought a new dish without the allergens! I have driven by these restaurants but never tried it! I'm happy do say I'll be stopping from now on! I had the 2 taco combo with fish taco and carne asada. Both were perfect! I loved all the surfer, skateboarding snowboarding decor too! I see why my sons chose it! So kid friendly too! read more

We went to this location recently and had a fantastic experience!! Food was awesome and all the guys that worked there provided excellent customer service! 5 star customer service is a rare these days! Booths and tables were clean and overall just great! I had the grilled salmon tacos, citrus style with the cabbage and I was very pleased!! Definitely will be back for more tacos! read more

I come here for lunch a few times a week for the past year. This review is long over due. Food is always hot and fresh. Service Staff is all smiles and accommodating. Byron, David, Kyle, or Elizabeth are always there to greet you. Love coming to a place where employees don't rotate regularly. Typical wahoos ambiance, surf, skate, extreme sports. Always playing something interesting on the many TV's. Food is still affordable, I usually get a #1 with fish enchilada rice and beans. It's like 11 bucks. Worth it in today's economy. read more

Provender: great Wahoos location, serving great bowls and other great dishes. The shrimp and Maui steak bowls come with rice, beans, and salsa. Prices: reasonable. a bowl will run you about $15. Parking: they have a L-shaped lot that surrounds the building. People: fun for all. Perks: the staff are friendly and the typical restaurant booths have a beachy vibe. They also have a bar area. read more

This location has gone from good enough to very poor. I ordered the chipotle salad with wild spicy fish. The fish was dry but the worst was that all the salsas including the cilantro dressing was going bad. They all had bubbles coming up to the surface. I refused to add any salsa or dressing to my food, afraid I would get food poisoning. It was 12 noon and there was only 3 other people there. Not enough customers and therefore not fresh food. I will never come back and I would not recommend this place. Sad! read more

Came in on a Friday evening cause we didn't feel like cooking. We had THE BEST service. It was me, my husband and our two toddlers. Our food was so good, my kids left me alone for a good 20 minutes. The skinny margaritas are the way to go. I'm a margarita snob and hate sweet n sour. The skinny margs were seriously so good I may have had more than one....or three. Great place for kids. Will definitely come back. read more

Wahoo's has always been one of our favorite places to go for fish tacos. Main reason is the fish is wild-caught and much healthier for you. Do your research and you will be much more aware of the fish you should consume. Today I had the 1-taco combo. Grilled salmon (wild caught) with citrus slaw. Cauliflower rice and spicy pinto beans completed the platter. This is a perfect sized meal and a good source of protein. i do love their rice but husband reminded me of the cauliflower rice. Perfect. Taco has a nice amount of fish and a generous portion of slaw. Tastes awesome with green salsa or even the cilantro dressing. less than 400 calories. Onion Rings is also our favorite. comes with ranch and ketchup. Crispy and crunchy. well worth the 525 calories and perfect to share. Husband had the Kale Kai salad with shrimp. less than 300 calories. Plus Cilantro dressing. They do have adult beverages but we just had iced tea today. Too early for a beer :) Service is good and we got all our food within 15 minutes. This is my first time at this location. I do like the vaulted ceiling indoors. Outdoor seating is also available. Plenty of parking. Enjoy! read more

Seems like Wahoo's filled my protein bowl with a microwaved tv dinner. Slimy shrimp and vegetables and a warmed up slab of unseasoned fish. Nothing about this meal was prepared from fresh ingredients. The Los Alamitos community deserves better. So disappointing. read more

The four of us go to Wahoo's once a week. The food and service are always great. This location has a full bar and great happy hour prices. The bathroom is always spotless. The employees are great and take good care of us. Over the years I've been to several Wahoo locations, I think this location is the best read more

Shout out to the staff at Wahoos, Los Alamitos. Stopped Friday and ordered the shrimp bowl - shrimp was grilled to perfection and very attentive service - very friendly and helpful! The Margs here are always made perfectly and reasonably priced. Topped off our meal with Churro Chips - yum yum!! Highly recommend this location!! read more

Went by on Friday night. My daughter ordered the tortilla soup. She added avocado and love it. I had their new street tacos. I ordered 2 chicken and 2 carne asada. Both were really good. The green sauce on top was especially good. read more

I've been to Wahoo's Fish Taco a few times now, and I've always been impressed with the food. Today we had the Kalua Pig Bowl to go. it's one of my favorites, and it's always cooked perfectly. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the rice and beans are good as well. The service at Wahoo's is also great. The staff is friendly and attentive, and they're always happy to help you choose the perfect meal. In the past we have eaten inside. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed with a surfer / skater vibe. the perfect place to grab a bite to eat with friends or family. Overall, I highly recommend Wahoo's Fish Taco. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the atmosphere is perfect. I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do! read more

Great food. Shrimp bowl was amazing. I'm quite picky when it comes to bowls but everything in it was so good. White rice, (opted for no beans), guac, corn, salsa, sour cream shrimp...so good! And filling! Couldn't finish it all. Service was 10/10. The young guy upfront was super attentive, nice, answered all my questions regarding the menu... went around 1pm on a Thursday. Salsa area was clean and well stocked. Saw them re stocking salsa throughout our visit. Would recommend! read more

Killer steak and fish tacos and rice is like from heaven. Had the spicy white bean and has a perfect amount of spice. Also, tried a milk shake and it was great. Fun place and made me feel energized! read more

Service: We walked in mid day and it was slow. One person ahead of us placing an order. As soon as we stepped to the register to order, the cashier excused himself and said he'd be right back. Upon his return, another customer barged up to him and asked for something. Rather than asking her to wait her turn, he accommodated her and then turned to us to take our order. I guess we are invisible. Food: we ordered steak taquitos and a fish taco. Steak taquitos were unseasoned and bland sitting in a watery mound of guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo. 3 taquitos cut in half on the diagonal to appear bigger. Disappointing. Fish taco was better, seasoned well and topped with a tangy slaw. Ambiance: we sat out in the patio and enjoyed the sunny CA day! read more

Been coming here for years. Love this place. Food is always so good and the service is always consistent! Great staff!! Thanks

They have multiple locations and this one is my favorite. They offer combos, bowls, soups, salads, shared plates, burritos, desserts, a kid's meal, and drinks. The difference between the #1 Combo and #2 Combo is you either get one or two tacos or enchiladas. I love how you can choose between so many options. Plus spicy mushrooms I never knew existed since it's not listed on the front on their website or there. I've had the Banzai Veggies before and they are amazing. Bell peppers, onions, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, and cabbage sauteed in teriyaki sauce. I would highly recommend it. They offer different types of taco toppings: Citrus Slaw: Your protein, cheese, citrus slaw, and homemade aioli in soft corn tortillas. The 1988: Fish or your protein, cheese, lettuce or cabbage, and salsa. Fuego Carnitas Taco: Smoky chipotle carnitas on a corn tortilla with melted cheese, roasted street corn, queso fresco, cilantro, and Fuego Roasted Salsa. Crispy Fish Taco: Alaska Flounder with lightly seasoned breading on a corn tortilla with melted cheese, citrus slaw, and cilantro sauce. The enchilada is: Your protein with red or green homemade enchilada sauce and melted cheese. The sides are black or spicy cajun white beans and white or brown steamed rice. You are able to substitute a side with citrus slaw or salad for $0.50 and add avocado slices for $1.99. I usually ordered Combo #2 with two fish enchiladas with red sauce with black beans and white rice. After being on a certain diet, I noticed their allergen guide which stated they have cauliflower rice. WHAT!? Even though I love their white rice, their cauliflower rice is amazing! Even though I found out their white rice doesn't contain gluten, I am stuck with cauliflower rice. My boyfriend always orders Combo #2 with two fish tacos 1988 style, white rice, spicy cajun white beans with cheese on top. He loves it. He can order it multiple times a week no problem. They now offer Tacos de Papa. It's three for $7.49. They were really good and crispy. I would recommend eating them first of your meal instead of waiting to get all the crispiness it has to offer. On the receipt it says having them with Pico De Gallo, Salsa, Lettuce, Maria Sauce, and Queso Fresco. I've also heard their brownies were good. I love their employees at this location. They are the friendliest, cleanest, helpful, and kind staff I want at most places I go. I've never seen anyone look frustrated even though people can be messy with all their items. They are also quick and I've never had to sit and wait for a long time even though the place can get busy. They make sure none of the salsas and items in that area get low and are replenishing them even when it comes down to the plastic containers. I'm guilty of taking more than two salsas and I've never had to scrape or touch multiple items just to get something to take with my to-go order. You guys just overall rock. They have an allergen and vegan guide on their website which is helpful. A lot of items are the same since it's the same items in a different form. Note, they use a lot of cilantro, soy, and dairy. read more

I got my favorite, Maui bowl. The only unfortunate thing was they did not pack the cilantro sauce I asked for. The pico de gallo on the rice was really spicy!!! But the bowl it send was delicious!!! I added mushrooms which made it even better. The service was really good and fast. read more

Good food, good service, very nice place, and pretty cheap. Well decorated too.

The soup was bueno. I think I will get it again sometime:) It was nice and hot. Yum The salad received had some oldish lettuce in it. The green lettuce was greenish in some areas (nice) but some was reddish (from being cut with a knife probably a day ago or so, which needed to be pulled out) and also some brownish pieces (which needed to be pulled out). So the other parts of the salad were good, just very little decent pieces of lettuce. Next time it's soup for me. (No salad next time because I am afraid at the of lack of freshness of lettuce.) Would they be able to do fresh lettuce next time? Who knows read more

(Updated Review) COVID19: Take our only. The staff and management have improved. Food was delicious and it's a great place to eat healthy. If you've added some unwanted COVID-weight and are trying a Keto-style diet or just want a healthy meal Wahoo's is the place to go. Delicious and fresh food. Can't really find a better "fast-food" place. (Original Review): I drive to the Wahoo's in Long Beach on PCH. Something about the service at Los Al that just seems like the people don't know what they're doing. Can't bag food correctly. To go orders sit on the counter without while customers stack up. People are handed someone else's order. No chicken in the Chicken burrito. And the flow in the front is congested. If you want Wahoo's go to Long Beach. It's 5 mins away. They have the service and food down to a science. (Lot's more to complain about in Los Al. But, it's one of my favorite chains. So I'll minimize the negative comments) Hope they turn things aroun read more

Bottom line: a great spot for some fusion of mexi-cali and Hawaiian food. The service was fast (and kind), the food was good, and available side sauces were spot on. It's definitely worth a try when you're in the area. Food: great selection. Got drawn into the taco choices and it did not disappoint. The best part about this place were all the different hot sauces you can try with your platted dish. Service: from start to finish, the service was spot on. Venue: a little hard to spot from the main road but it's in a relatively popular market area. There's both indoor and outpost seating available and can somewhat accommodate larger groups (6-8). Give this place a try. It was definitely worth a visit and highly recommended read more
