Our waiter Ivan, was super fun and energetic! Really cool and funny dude and just makes this experience of a restaurant even better. “Hell Yeah” was the funniest and favorite quote of the night! Homemade guacamole and salsa was phenomenal as well as the delicious appetizing food! The margaritas are a MUST here! This is such a great place, always keeps me coming back!

I’m going to start off saying that Ivan was our server and he was amazing! Great service. Steak tacos were to die for! Salsa and chips of course were amazing. Cold beer on draft finished it off great. We will be back

Our new favorite Mexican spot in town! Recently moved here and tried this place - it's great! Delicious food, awesome salsa, and such a fun atmosphere. Our server Ivann was phenomenal – super friendly and on top of everything. This is definitely our new go-to. Can’t wait to come back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Marcella Perry · Aug 2024

FAVORITE spot to eat when I visit family! Tableside guac is the best 11/10. Also the BEST margaritas 🤤 My family is always satisfied coming here. The atmosphere and staff are amazing and very attentive- always asking how everything is and offering refills before drinks are gone 🍻 couldn’t ask for a more friendly and welcoming staff and owner!! My family is very big on Mexican food and this is definitely the best in Surf City✅ **The only complaint we’ve ever had is the shredded chicken is very dry and tough consistently every time we have been (and that’s multiple times)**
