Genuinely the worst tacos I’ve ever had in my life. And they had little surprise hairs in them!!! Worst staff. Worst food. Crazy prices. Don’t make our same mistake

BEST tacos on island! And the only place that hand makes their tortillas DAILY. They so so fresh and delicious. The tacos are fantastic and everything here is GLUTEN FREE, plus they have vegetarian and vegan options, as well as dairy free. My two favorite tacos are the eggplant and the falafel, SO tasty. This place gets packed in the summer, so make sure to head in early or just be prepared to wait - the tacos are worth the wait! It's a small place too, fun to be in, good music, and they do have some outdoor space in front and in the back!

Very sad taco place! We ordered takeout and the whole thing was just disappointing. A few yuca chips for $9. Tacos were just not good, blend, with the Mexican style cheese we get at the grocery store, nothing that actually represents a real Mexican meal. Paid almost $50 for a very sad meal. Would never go back, unfortunately.

Look, I got recommended here by a local and took my family. Is it particularly bad, no! Is it good, absolutely not. Pretty dang mediocre and for a high price. I saw reviews saying “best on the island” which was super enticing but now I am just sad for your beautiful little island. Tacos were solid but nothing special. The family had chicken and cauliflower and mushroom. Lots of grease on the vegetarian options and the chicken had a cheese that was rlly low quality. Guacamole was 7 which I thought was awesome until it came in a tiny plastic ketchup looking side cup. You had to also pay for chips which to me is a crime against nature. Who orders 7 dollar guac and gets no chips. Most Mexican restaurants if you get guac it comes with chips. So that was severely disappointing. Comes out on plas

Raf the guy that owns this place is amazing! Such a fun vibe, and only food that’s open late in Edgartown. Make sure you hang up a dollar!
