Love Surf Tacos —
Worth the trip!
Always fun experience– you know your at the shore when you go Surf Taco!

Always good tacos. However the chill «surfer vibes» don’t translate through to the employees. My friend asked for guacamole and it didn’t come out with her meal. Woulda gave this place a higher rating but if an employee forgets to ring up the guacamole and then they ask you to get up and come back to the register and pay for the guacamole that they forgot to ring up then they should just give it to her for free. How rude.

Went here after the beach for a quick meal. I ordered the Garlic Shrimp Burrito.
Service: The kid at the register was a bit unpleasant. He definitely gave the vibe that he didn’t want to be there. Kind of felt that I annoyed him when I ordered cause he had to get off his phone.
Food: The top ¹⁄₃ of the burrito was all rice, beans and cabbage. Not much favor. Then my next bite was into an uncooked shrimp. I thought I was crazy because all the shrimps were gray-​pink. Until I kept digging and found one fully-​cooked pink shrimp. We went up and showed the manager and she offered me a new burrito but at this point I was turned off. So she literally said ‘Sorry, I’ll just toss it then for you’. It was only after I asked for a credit or a refund did she mention it.
I would probably return but maybe stick to chicken next time to be safe, but would not go out of my way to go here.

If you like tasteless food and poor service then yes, you will LOVE this place! Cabbage on tacos and the rice is Minute Maid rice…
I ordered an extra side of sour cream and they forgot it.
Asked for NO cilantro and they brought us tacos with the pico on it and said «you said no cilantro not no pico». If there is cilantro in your pico it would be considerate to mention it.
Attitude from every high schooler working there. Four girls behind the counter playing with their hair near all of the food.
I’m not sure how this place has almost 5 stars.

Love this place. Every time I come to New Jersey I have to have surf taco. It’s a chain here but I didn’t know that because it definetly does not seem like one. The place is small and gets busy quick so if your
Smart you will call ahead like we did. The food here is just amazing. It’s very fresh. I had the steak taco bowl. It was lettuce cheese pico guacamole cheese and sour cream. It was stuffed into a crispy shell. They have a salsa bar where you can decide how much heat you want for it. If your ever in the jersey area definetly check this place out.

I stop here every time I am in NJ. I love their California cheese steak wrap. They have a salsa bar that is very good. Salsa Verde (the green one) has garlic in it and it is to die for! Great beach food.

We had to go to point pleasant to pick up a surfboard at a shop… we passed Surf Taco and turned around to get a bite. Friendly staff and great food! defintly headed back next time we are close by.

A must visit when down the shore! Recommend getting the combo platter #2 — it is a great value at $ 8.95 as it comes with two tacos of your choosing, plus rice, black beans, tortilla chips and a soft drink. My go-​to taco choices are garlic shrimp and teriyaki chicken. I will warn you — these are a tad messy and you may need a fork, as the contents tend to explode all over the place. However, you leave feeling stuffed. My only complaint after our recent trip is the big booth was ripped in the back and had a lot of flies all over it — one of my favorite places to sit as a group so hope it gets fixed soon!

I love this place only complaint a little pricey but food is wonderful love the mahi mahi taco
Staff is friendly and also service is quick for it being made to order !
Also love the stickers being I am a sticker freak!

Cool vibe, good tunes, good people and yummy chow. A simmer staple on he jersey shore. Surf taco rocks

I’m from California, so mexican food on the East Coast is always pretty rough. This place was really just passable for lunch. It wasn’t particularly fresh or authentic. There was too much moisture in the tacos and they were really runny. The shrimp was lacking flavor as was the salsa. It served the purpose of eating lunch but I won’t be missing the food. Go here if you’re desperate.

If you like shredded cabbage, this is your place. Ordered Mahi and Shrimp tacos. Both had trace amounts of their protein but filled with about 85% of shredded cabbage. Also had the garlic shrimp burrito which was filled with 85% white rice… That’s just odd. There is no Mexican flare or spice to these dishes. It’s a mish-​mash of flavors barely discernable over a mouthful of cabbage or rice. lol
Décor is casual jersey shore. Parking is very limited.
Service n/​a. There are summer-​hire teenagers behind the counter.
Would not recommend.

It’s summer. Every trip to the shore needs some Surf Taco. From the salsa bar to the fountain drinks. Yum-​o. Drew likes the hot salsa.
Check out the special board. Mango shrimp taco. Wow.
I think this is going to be a taco summer

Cheap tortilla on the burritos. Stingy on the avocado. They messed up my order and nobody apologized. Waiter asked me if I ordered correctly if I didn’t know what I ordered. Might go back because it’s cheap-​eats down by jersey shore. But will not be returning anytime soon.

Surf Taco delivers. Not literally. They do takeout but you have to do your own schlepping.
No, what I mean is that you get what you expect — tasty California Mexican tacos and burritos and all that at a reasonable price in a casual atmosphere. Great for kids, too.
I love this place. Most of the choices are reliably good, especially the fajitas platter that can feed two adults happily for about 10 bucks. The chips are good, you can take as much salsa as you like, and they have one of those drink machines that have like a million variations on root beer.

This place is good! Cool place when you are down the shore
We live in NYC so to go to a nice laid back place and just order, sit, and have a beer is all we can handle most weekends. Tacos are good, fresh, flavorful, big portions. Nice salsa bar. would go back

Solid beach food very busy location so food is turned over and fresh. Service is great. Tried the buffalo calamari, it’s was very good

I came here only to find complaining parents, screaming and crying children. I didn’t mind the children but all of the adults around me (three families) were so negative. Seems to attract these families. The guacamole was delicious (have to to give them that). I liked how each burrito came with chips. Two burritos, side of guacamole, and one iced tea came to $ 23.00 (not bad). My boyfriend would give SURF TACO four stars. I would have maybe even given four but I was EXTREMELY sick after I ate a shrimp burrito on on Friday. I was excited to have fish in a beach town in a place that’s known to have fresh seafood. Sometimes you get a bad batch. I should have sent it back (I was questioning it as I was eating) but didn’t because I was in denial while thinking of the positive reviews I read.

I love fish tacos. I’ve eaten them in California and I’ve eaten them in Florida. I’ve probably eaten too many.
The fish tacos weren’t even close (flour tortillas, really?) to California’s or Florida’s. The restroom was the best thing about the place because I was sick after the first one. It didn’t taste very good, and it wasn’t like I was sick ahead of time.
I returned from the restroom, got my drink and the basket and tossed the rest of my food. $ 11 down the drain, so to speak.
The person who took my order was friendly and helpful, as was the person who delivered my food.
