This is the type of food and service that’s so good it makes me feel like I’m on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives. It’s so good. I got the fish and chips, and the food was made fresh, and in a decent amount of time. Good atmosphere, clean place. We weren’t waiting long at all for our meals, and even if we were it was worth the wait. :) The girl at the register was so sweet & they drew cute things on our boxes. 1000/10 recommend. GO THERE. :p

Fantastic! Every single time our meal has exceeded our expectations!!! Cannot beat sun dog for a beachside lunch. Oceanside covered patio is a bonus on this hidden gem. Steak Tacos- 5 stars. Taco salad - 5 stars. Superfood salad- 5 stars. French fries - 5 stars. They offer the chicken fingers gluten free as well and corn tacos instead of flour which are fresh and fantastic! Cannot wait to visit again next year on our annual WWC vacay!

Fantastic, fresh food on the beach! Everything from the tacos to Chilli cheese fries to the perfect gluten free chicken tenders and fries were perfect. Extra points for making delicious fired gluten free food. Will definitely be coming back!!!

Clean place right on the beach that serves tastey and fresh food. I had the pork tacos and the pork was well seasoned with black beans, fried onions, crunchy slaw and a spicy sauce on top. My only only criticism would be the small amount of pork on these large soft taco shells. Worth a stop and I would definitely visit again. And we have returned, several times. This time for dinner. Burgers and tacos. Burger was fresh and juicey with lettuce and tomatoes. Fish Taco was outstanding but the braised beef taco was actually cold. This place is too good not to try again.

This it's not fancy, not pretentious, it's picnic benches and fountain soda everyday Americana... But the food is delicious and fresh, and served with care and service. It's clean, a great meal for the price. You can take your Michelin stars... To me this is a great meal with a great atmosphere. Oceanside, no less.

Nice fresh fish n crispy chips. Street parking near by for cheap, definitely dog friendly. Clean Picnic tables outside. Very nice view. About 21$ per person with fountain sodas. For 5 people. Tipped the girls inside and they brought the food out to our table so generosity pays.
