Surf Taco - Seaside Park

What once made me so happy, now just makes me sad. We used to drive down from college to hit up the Pt. location, and I remember being so excited this location was opening so close to home...but now it 's more hype than worth. Sure, I 'm not a local anymore, but when the menu stays generally the same, but the amount/quality/taste goes down, the spot loses its splendor. Unfortunately, this is what happened here. I 've been back a good amount this summer, and after 3 times, you can 't call it a fluke. Everything about the food has just gone downhill. $6 for a fish stick smaller than what you get in a frozen Gorton 's box (which is so fried you can 't even taste the fish), and then a sprinkle of shredded cabbage...it 's not worth it. The chips are stale, not even their almost famous salsa bar can help. The rice and beans are not seasoned at all so be prepared to grab the salt and pepper. I was thoroughly disappointed by the guac as well. It tasted overly like lime and that weird powder season you can buy to make guac dip. My kid wasn 't a fan of her quesadilla until I patted off the grease, and even then she said I won 't get this again . I don 't think their soda machine has worked any time I 've been there this year, so then you have to pay for a bottled beverage. Its just all more a hassle than it 's worth. It 's a great vibe and a great spot, but their food has just gone downhill, which makes me so disappointed.

I don't know what the hype is about this place at all. I don't enjoy it what so ever. I've had better tacos and burritos at a million other places and this isn't one of them. I'd pass on this place 100

2 for service only employees were welcoming and kind. The Food is Not good I've given this place 2 chances. And that was the last time I'm donating my money. Surf tacos are NO BETTER than Taco Bell, they were out of crunchy tacos this time. (Not that it would have made a difference) tacos are extremely over priced. I ordered 12 tacos got a bunch of chips lol and bad tacos. For $90 This is NOT a representation of Mexican,Latin or anything close to authentic tacos also guys please add some seasoning to your rice and beans you can do that I promise.

Don't get me wrong; I am big Surf Taco fan, and I go to this and many other locations. For my reviews of the other locations, I always give 5 stars, and they deserve it. It's just that this is one of the busier locations in the summer, and they get very, very busy. They have a small counter and a small seating area, and they struggle to keep up with the crowds. I understand that space in Seaside Park is very expensive, but at some point they need to manage the line better or think about expanding. The food is still very good. I think that Surf Taco fills a need for higher quality fast-casual food with a fun seashore theme. I also think that this is one of the very few places to grab a decent meal quickly in the entire Seaside area that is not overpriced and poor quality.

I feel like this place is super overrated and people hype it up way too much. I guess it is famous because it is located down the shore. I am a huge fan of Mexican Food and when I eat Mexican Food I expect a lot. I guess you can say I am a hard critic when it comes to it because i have had such amazing Mexican food before. Price: the prices are okay... they range from $5-$12. If you are not that hungry you can grab a taco and chips for around $5 but if you are super hungry you can grab a taco salad for about $11. When i went i decided to go with the taco salad and it wasn't as flavorful as i wished it was. It was just average for me. However, Surf Taco does have a pretty friendly staff. One of my favorite things about it is the salsa bar. You can grab any type of salsa you like with your meal.
