Wahoo Fish Taco

Fresh seafood never was an option for me growing up (Ohio!) but I did eventually learn there is more to fish than those fried/frozen/reheated triangles I had so often. Some pals told me I definitely needed to try fish tacos when I moved to Pasadena, but the idea just seemed wrong, even though logical considering all that Mexican coastline.

This is my favorite place for fish tacos. The type of fish varies, but is always fresh, and served with just the right amount of cabbage on decent corn tortillas. Add a splash of lime...heaven! Choose regular or spicy grilled fish and order a plate with excellent rice and beans, you'll be happy. They also have a beer-of-the-month special, which is an awesome deal depending on the month.

Nothing else is as good as the fish taco platter, but other choices include burritos, enchiladas and tacos with your choice of beef, chicken, fish or mushrooms. You can also find some salads and teriyaki bowls, but I recommend the tortilla soup and the tacquitos if, like Cheri, you aren't a big fan of fish tacos.
