We came for a late breakfast and because the patio seemed to be a haven for wasps this time of year, we sat at the inside counter. The food (my huevos rancheros and spouse's sausage and eggs) was perfectly prepared and delicious. Watching the staff from the counter was a show in itself. As they work most efficiently, they seem to care about each other and work in harmony. Our server, Zach, was so delightful and engaging. It doesn't hurt that he looks like Brad Pitt. A real charmer.

The chicken quesadillas were poor. I make much better ones (and I am a gringo). However, the grilled fish tacos were quite good! In fact, so good we went there for them a second night. The Taco Shop is located diagonally across the street from La Fonda Hotel so it provoked us to overlook the negatives as location was a strong positive.Heads up: the salsa is green. Only green. Nothing but green. There is no red salsa! What? Note to owner: buy a jar of red salsa from the local grocery store and offer it to patrons. Not everyone likes green salsa. I'm just saying ... The chips were excellent. We were able to pair them with a RED SALSA from our hotel's reception and had a wonderful treat. This little hole-in-the-wall is (I am assuming) family owned and run. Nice people. I would go there again as long as I brought my own salsa and sayed away from the marginal chicken quesadillas.

We enjoyed a fantastic dinner at Zorroâs last night. I couldnât decide between the cod and shrimp tacos and the server suggested one of each! They were both delicious, lots of fresh cabbage, radish and yummy sauce. Dinner was served with tortilla chips and salsa. The chips were fantastic. Overall I really enjoyed this restaurant.

Staying at Pismo, walked to the Ventana, enjoyed a few cocktails then have a lovely very enjoyable meal earlier in the evenings I guess you could dine while the sun sets. Great atmosphere
