Quick service and good flavors! Can’t wait to visit again and try more
Pros: friendly, knowledgeable staff. Great atmosphere Cons: Very few vegan options, even the beans are cooked in lard. Typically Mexican restaurants are easy options for vegans, but not this one. Staff was very kind and accommodating with a ready list of ingredients in the food for people with dietary restrictions. Other reviews from our group were: The “fresh” fish catch of the day was dry and lacked flavor, chicken taco was plain and also lacked flavor and carne asada taco was average and there was a chewy piece in it which had not been trimmed. Perhaps this was an off day for them, so I can’t say if this was their norm.
Best taco spot in Southern California!
Best shrimp tacos I've had in years.
Such a cool chill place and the yellowtail tacos were some of the best fish tacos I've ever had. Verde sauce was awesome as well, had a kick. Kid-friendliness: There were just 2 families there when we went and both sets of kids were running all over having fun. Chill vibe.
My friend Nick and I stopped there for a late lunch. We were greeted with a big smile from our waitress. We sat at a table inside and they have outside dining as well. We ordered chips, guacamole, and salsa to start. It was happy hour, so I had a watermelon margarita Nick had a hazy IPA. We then ordered street tacos. The Carnitas tacos were small, but they were very good. Street tacos are always small. Our waitress was friendly, very knowledgeable and also cute. I left a 20% tip because we had a great lunch and the waitress did a good job. When you get good food and fantastic service don’t forget to leave a good tip! I would highly recommend Wild Taco.
Wild taco is always a relaxing great mellow experience. I drive along way to the beach area and I always stop for tacos and a margarita. Chips and salsa are always on point too. Parking: You can always find parking way easier than closer to beach.
Nice casual Mexican restaurant. Great vibes on the Balboa Peninsula. It's not low-end or high-end. Good balance.
