★★★★★ 5.0 Karen Hoffman · Feb 2026

The food was out of this world! We ordered the Greek salad and Chicken Kabob plate, together we could have fed an entire family. The serving size was huge. We also got the iced coffee, which was a nice treat to cool off and get a nice view of the beach, surfers and walkers on the Strand. We sat at the table and enjoyed just relaxing. Better than an indoor, 4-star restaurant.

★★★★☆ 4.0 The Baseline · Oct 2025

The Baseline: For beach to-go food stand, the food must be tasty, have an experience, reliable service, and be a part of the beach day experience. Food: I had a BLT Hotdog with fries which held up to the standards of having beach eats. I have been here several times just for the fries and I know they are “out-of-the-bag” fries but they do a good job of preparing them. The BLT Hotdog was pretty good and hit the spot. In the past I have had iced-coffee and soda that are also “hit-the-spot” level items to get from this stand. Beach prices for all items. Service: No frills and efficient. The staff takes your order at the window then serves you from the window. No complaints. Ambiance: You are eating beach eats on the beach. There are several tables and chairs with umbrellas. Nice pl

Great fish tacos! What a surprise. I wasn’t expecting much but these tacos were delicious! Son said the hamburger was good too! A new fish taco spot! Very dog friendly!

★★★★★ 5.0 Beatrice Roose · Feb 2026

The staff is so nice and accommodating. Beto went above and beyond when he overheard it was our friends Birthday 🎂 He brought out a taramasu cake slice with a happy birthday on it. I always take my family there for breakfast before their homebound flights. Its close to LAX! Last chance to take in the ocean before returning to reality. I personally love to order the Belgian Waffle, today my cousins got a tuna sandwich, it was good and humongous!! We also had hamburgers, omlettes and gyro, everyone was full and hungry. I also on occasion love their virgin Pina Colada with my own added rum. There is something for everyone and today I felt inclined to give a review because our friend was so surprised by their kind gesture!! Also there is board rentals here and so many people giving surf less

★★★★★ 5.0 Elvia Cortez · Jul 2024

Googled lunch at the beach and got this.... right on the sand, ocean view, meter convenient parking, restrooms, swings next door, and ocean view seating for days! Surf Food stands can be a bit pricey, but the portions are large enough to share. Took my 2 kids and enjoyed the chicken kabob plate w/hummus, rice, salad and pita bread, a tuna melt sandwich w/fries, and 2 smoothies. I paid $70.00, including tip. I must admit my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Had to take the tuna melt sandwich to go. The food was definitely tasty. I would go back again. Service was excellent, and the atmosphere was simply beachie and easy. It's one of those all in one spots - kid friendly, ocean view, playground, lounging, and beach. Just don't park past 8 pm, or you will get a ticket.
