These fresh fish, shrimp, and seafood tacos (many served in combinations that include grilled pineapple, fresh spinach, grated cheese, garlic, and bacon) are so tasty that they're addicting. An unusual selection of nine sweet and spicy salsas accompanies them, and there are also excellent burritos, meat and chicken dishes, and vegetarian selections. Unlike most inexpensive places to eat, the setting is also lovely, with a handful of tables overlooking tropical trees and the bay below. The lighting may be bright, the atmosphere occasionally hectic, and the service dependably slow, but the tacos are delectable. Consider the takabrían, which comes with shrimp, octopus, calamari, pepper, onion, and cheese. You can also order beer, wine, soft drinks, and dessert here. This restaurant is along the Costera, next to Beto's lobster restaurant. There's another branch across from the Hyatt Regency hotel.
