Tacos are excellent and the taco salad is my favorite. Great fish tacos as well and a good location close to the waterfront at Harbour Quay

I would give this joint four stars until back in April, but last two visits were both disappointed one. We go there for fish taco. When we visit in September, I’ve noticed the fish got noticeably small. I told myself that it could be one off. I forgot about it altogether and visited last weekend. Sadly, my fish was extremely small. Even the batter couldn’t make the tiny piece of fish a size. I hope they fix this. I loved their fish taco. Please don’t let me down!

Thanks so much for your feedback. We hate letdowns too and appreciate your bringing this to our attention. We also appreciate being given the opportunity to fix any complaint onsite at the time of your meal. Hopefully, we don't disappoint next time. But do let us know in person so we can be sure to get it right!

Nice atmosphere, small place but has a outdoor area. Good food, tiny portions! The only thing I saw that would feed more than a mouse would be the chimichangas. Everything else was kid size although very good. I’m thinking a drink and a snack would be nice on a sunny day outdoors.

Serving up some decent tacos, my favourite in town. Mexican Beer and Margaritas, this is my go to for a decent quick meal. Space is limited here though, but they do offer take-out. However, not sure they’ll remain open during the winter.
