Great location! The chips and salsa are phenomenal. Food was delicious and not overpriced. Had the burrito & enchilada in green mole sauce. Service was good had us in and out with a quickness

Yummy! Love the chips and salsa. So tasty! This place has a few locations to try. One in downtown Santa Cruz and another in Watsonville.

The food is fine. And I guess they’re short-staffed but the takeout procedures are definitely subpar. If you order to eat outside on the patio, they call your number from the door, then LEAVE YOUR FOOD OUT ON A TABLE NEAR THE DOOR where anyone can touch/breathe/mess with it. It’s served on a cheap paper plate, and you go grab your own utensils and napkins nearby. Just not cool for this price.

Mexican food in Santa Cruz crows nest. Good is basic including burritos and more as well the service. What you pay is the view and the cold weather in the mid summer watching beach volleyball

Great place for Mexican food right on the beach. A bit on the pricey side, but the location is what you are paying for. Good beers, great cocktails and sunsets are epic. Good spot for kids, as the beach is right there and playing on the harbor jacks is always fun

The server seemed upset that I didn’t order a drink, seemed confused that I didn’t understand that chili colorado has meat, she was completely unaware of the fact that her loose fitting jacket dipped into the food as she delivered it, and on top of that I felt horribly sick that evening and it lasted for three days. I cannot confirm it was food poisoning, but I am pretty sure. Beware of the pork enchiladas!
