The Ahi tuna tacos are one of the most popular items on the menu, with huge chunks of fish nestled on a bed on coleslaw in a crispy wonton shell.

The fried fish, shrimp, and calamari are a crowd-pleaser. Best of all, you get both regular and sweet potato fries on the side, so you don’t have to make the impossible decision of choosing.

Another soup option is the cioppino, an Italian-American dish originating from San Francisco. It’s loaded with fish and other delicious seafood.

The fish tacos are some of the best you’ll ever have. Choose between grilled fish or fried fish, or get one of each.
