Taqueria El Guero

Yes I know we come from the valley, why eat Mexican food? We couldn't resist the scent of charbroiled asada in the air. Then you already had me at homemade tortillas. Say less!!!

Great little taco and drinking destination, you are welcomed to a spacious, clean, and well laid out restaurant, you know you can really trust a restaurant when they have the kitchen completely open for your visual inspection. I really appreciate the transparency of food and drinks at this establishment, I understand it's in the Pismo Beach main thoroughfare so of course prices might be a little steeper than most, before I even talk about food I would strongly suggest if you have a taste for a original margarita to check them out as they make their margaritas some of the best you would taste in the area. There is a decent selection of tacos that are available where you can either buy the taco separately or add on beans and rice to your meal. I must be honest out of the three times that I've visited this restaurant I've enjoyed having drinks and conversations more than just jumping into a plate of food. The food especially the nachos are fantastic, fresh, and a portion like no other. You might not agree with the slightly higher prices but at least you will get a good portioned meal for you and easily another person to enjoy. There are other Mexican restaurants and cantinas in the area, but if you are in Pismo near the pier then this is a great place to stop and enjoy. Pro tip try to catch them on a Monday or Tuesday where they will have discounted margaritas or Taco Tuesday which you can stretch your dollar farther and have more bang for your buck. I will say that this is a restaurant worth visiting so please don't hesitate. Enjoy your meal, enjoy the destination, and whatever you do be safe.

New to the Pismo pier area, and I hope they stay. The micheladas are delicious, and the birria tacos, so good! Great service!

Very good food. The best Michelada ever. Good location. Nice people. A little spendy though. Street tacos were $5 bucks each. I'm sure the location is driving the prices up. I hear the truck, same owner, in Grover Beach sells the tacos for less.

2nd time coming here. Had the Taco plate combo with carne asada, rice and beans. The meat was flavorful and on handmade corn tortillas. Loved the Spanish rice, one of the best tasting rice I’ve had. Ordered the horchata and the cinnamon flavor was spot on.. not watered down like other places. The service was quick and we will continue to support this new restaurant!
