They are great and even deliver. Love their secret cream sauce, served with two other sauces with fresh (usually) chips. Para llevar orders come with
all the fixings. My favorite dish there is huevos rancheros on crispy tortillas. Check out the family compound if you get a chance. They are
commercial fisherman and have lived there forever. And my buddy won a Super Bowl square, a few days after catching some beautiful yellowtail near TS
Island. Can`t get better!!!

Once when at Javi's, we ordered these and they were not something I would ever order again. Skimpy, not warm and certainly not what we had heard about
from others. Maybe it was a busy night, maybe they were running out of fish, but saying this, I will try them again as so many rave about them. I
always give a touted place a second change.
Dogs are not our whole life, but make our lives whole.

Woody-- About 3/4 mile north. Can`t miss it.
My only complaint is the ambiance has gone down. Used to listen to great Mexican music there, now it`s American caca!!

Taco surf 8+
Charlys Place 5 or 6
I think that Taco surf is much better. By the surf shop and coffee place, right.
I used to love the taco stand at k37.5 breakfast tacos in wetsuits!!!!!

me and Jerry Leach used to surf Rocketmans/Touristas and then get a fix at the only spot there. Taco Surf was the spot back when Gus Cota was the man
at 38's. The wave is the same but the cliff has gotten SOOOO crowded!
