Hands down, best tacos in San Carlos. Friendly staff, beach atmosphere, great prices. All around my favorite spot to eat! You'll want at least 4 tacos, they're street taco sized. Favorites are the Gina and the coconut shrimp. They have a full condiment bar as well to load up with. The smoked fish tacos (pescado ahumado) are my go-to every time!

This may be one of the top tacos I have ever had in my life, shrimp chile relleno. It is so good, i ate 4. Amazing!

This spot is a vibe. Servers were all over us, which we loved, and they were so fun! Prices were decent, a little on the high side, but it’s right in the heart of tourist area. Prices didn’t matter much once we were eating because it was so good! Although, I wasn’t a huge fan of the squid taco. Don’t hesitate to visit if in town.

The food was great! The menue is on the east wall and large enough I didn't need my glasses to read it. I had a beef and a chicken taco, I preferred the beef but the chicken was a close second. Great t shirts to buy and an awesome atmosphere.

Very nice place. Food is good and customer service is excellent. Would definitely come back to try different items on menu. We had carne asada tortas and Hawaiian quesadillas. ...

What a great place!! The food was delicious, service was wonderful, and the vibe was the best! I went on my last night in San Carlos with a bigger group. The live music is a fantastic touch (bring some cash to tip the musicians!!). It was great to see many people up dancing throughout the night. Absolutely the best thing I could have done on my last night there. If I make it back there again, I will definitely be going back to JJ's. Some of the group I was with has been dining at JJ's throughout the years and locations - JJ was very glad to see them!
