" I can't rave enough about this place! We tried the tacos and nachos for lunch, and they were fantastic. The freshly made guacamole was a highlight, creamy and delicious. I felt the prices were reasonable considering the Wharf prices. Only downside was the limited outdoor seating—would be great if they could expand that. Will definitely come back next time I’m in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have never been so impressed by a taco stand! The flavors are out of this world. I have come to Surfside multiple times and always leave satisfied. Their street corn is incredible and made with such care. I also love their creative drinks—this time I tried the mango habanero soda. Truly one of my favorite places! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is an excellent casual dining option! The birria tacos were fantastic; however, I thought the prices were a bit high for what you get. Still, the flavors are well worth trying. If you're looking for a no-frills taco experience, this is the spot for you! " (*Curated Review*)

" I thought Surfside would be all hype, but they proved me wrong! I enjoyed their tacos and thought every bite was full of flavor. The shrimp was well-cooked and seasoned just right. The only downside was the lack of indoor seating—it can be pretty packed at times. But the outdoor setup is nice during good weather. I’ll visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here expecting amazing tacos based on reviews, and it delivered! The carne asada was perfectly cooked, and the tacos were juicy. The walk-up service was quick. I would definitely recommend giving this place a shot, especially if you're looking for good food at a reasonable price near the Wharf. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a taco lover's dream! I loved the vibe here, very casual but with great service. I ordered the crab tacos, and the crab was sweet and freshly prepared. The taco variety is excellent, and their street corn is addictive! Parking can be a hassle around the Wharf area, but the food makes up for it. If you're in the neighborhood, don't miss this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a little disappointed in my visit to Surfside Taco Stand. Despite hearing so many good things, my taco was just okay, and the seating situation was not ideal. The food seemed rushed and lacked the authentic flavor I had hoped for. However, the staff was friendly, and maybe I just caught them on a busy day. " (*Curated Review*)
