Casita Taqueria

Mexican restaurant

👍 We stopped in during the taco happy hour. The queso is on point. I found the pork and mild chicken tacos to be really tasty but I’d probably do without the green sauce on it. I like the Mexican art and decor. Cool place to check out when you’re in the area.

Grand Hacienda

Mexican restaurant

👍 I was kind of expecting more to reflect the prices. I mean, I guess they probably have higher prices being across the street from the beach but not the best chimichanga rice and beans. The service was okay but she wasn't really attentive. Since I was just visiting I probably won't be back. They don'...

👍👍 I loved this place. It is a no frills, hole in the wall style Mexican restaurant. Service was friendly. Service was speedy. Food portions were generous, particularly for the quesadilla.
