We dined here 11/5/23 and had very friendly service. The food was excellent; fish and shrimp tacos, carnitas burrito (huge), tortilla soup and enchiladas all were fresh and flavorful. It’s a great spot!

This place has some of the best Baja tacos I've had in central California. My wife is not big on fish but even she couldn't pass up on trying some. Would definitely recommend if your looking for the real deal California fish taco experience.

Delicious food we will definitely go again! Simple dining room for relaxed meal. The Mahi burrito was a huge hit!

Service was nice and friendly. I ordered my food to-go.
I ordered a grilled mahi-mahi taco, and a grilled shrimp taco, with a side of black beans and rice. The tacos were pretty big, with lots of cabbage, so they still quite filling!
The "IT sauce" was yummy. I asked for it to be on the side, because I wasn't sure how spicy it would be, but I liked it, and ended up using the whole lil container of it on my two tacos.
I got the "mild" and "green" salsas from the salsa bar, but they were way more spicy, so I didn't use them.

An enjoyable eatery in this shopping center. I keep an eye out for grilled fish tacos (not a fan of the batter fried kind), and here they have a grilled mahi mahi taco for a good price. And for a little extra you can add guacamole to it, which I recommend. :-) They also have an endless supply of salsas in a cooler.
For a normal / modest lunch if was under 10 dollars (taco, guacamole, maybe a drink). Other lunch options, or for kids and teens with big appetites, and it could easily get into the 10-20.

Great fish tacos here, the house tortilla chips are really nice and fresh. I can’t say how much I loved the sauces, the hot sauce and the spicy sauce were too good. Loved it!!!

Pretty good basic Mexican food-truck style fare in a no-nonsence atmosphere. Order at counter, but several inside tables and a few outside if the weather is nice. Prices about right-12-15 bucks for burritos and other plates about the same.

I was reading the lower reviews on Island Taco and it became evident to me that this restaurant has made a lot of improvements over the years. My family and I all got different dishes and all of them were fresh and delicious. Island Taco does not deserve any of these bad ratings and it’s nice to see a restaurant develop and make improvements. The service was excellent and the employees were very friendly. Island taco is truly a hidden gem and I would love visiting again. I highly recommend trying this restaurant as it is truly a delightful experience.
