Top choice in Outer Banks
There's a long list of tacos, burritos and fresh and spicy salsas at this sensational taco stand. If you're over fried clams and crab cakes, dishes such as prime rib-eye tacos with salsa de xoconostle (sour prickly pears) hit the spot, as do the fish with creamy chipotle apple slaw or poblano chowder with shrimp or clams. Full veggie menu, too.
Get in line. Opening hours are approximate and depend on the number of customers.
