Ordered a garlic shrimp and a fish taco. During our wait we’ve gotten a shrimp soup that tasted amazing! Wait time was short. Tacos come in a bigger size I would say. The garlic Shrimp taco was flavorful, tasted fresh and hit the spot. Not the grilled fish taco. It had a weird taste so it felt wrong continue eating it. Besides that, great taco truck.

Crazy good food. It's the only place I've had in Marlin tacos outside of Mexico. The spicy gorvernor taco and the campechana were so excellent. I also have a crush on the cashier who's awesome and helpful. I can't even imagine how much shrimp they go through every day. It's definitely worth a visit it might be the best mariscos troca in SD

Great service w people who clearly love what they do and love their customers. The tacos are crazy large so be warned! One taco is practically equivalent to two! The fish, especially the mahi was super fresh and tasty 11/10. The governor shrimp taco was a heavier taco that’s not my preference but if you love grilled veggies, jumbo shrimp, and lots of cheese I’d recommend. Their complimentary soup and chips were also perfect and I’ll go back thinking about that soup often. There are some side high top tables along the parking lot but I recommend driving it down the road and eating it on the shore of fiesta island!

We like to call ourselves foodies and we love trying new places. Before we went to San Diego we watched a lot of YouTube to check out what places to visit. Kiko's kept coming up so we definitely wanted to try. Well, I can tell you why it's mentioned so many times! It was AMAZING food and amazing service. You can tell they put so much love into their dishes. I Mean, look at the presentation on the Ceviche. It's beautiful... and delicious! We were given a great little soup while we waited for our food and I think that was a very nice little touch. I got the OG taco and it was delicious as well. Perfectly sized and the right amount of garnish. If you find yourself hungry, GO TO KIKOS!

Free seafood soup – super flavorful and fresh! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. • The OG Fish Tacos – Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. The fish is perfectly cooked, not dry at all! • Seafood King Tacos – A mix of fish, shrimp, and squid—all incredibly fresh and delicious. The food truck blasts loud Mexican ???????? music, making the vibe absolutely on point!

11/2024 update: just as good as always. I will keep coming back! Update: came here again before attending a Justin Timberlake concert and the tacos were just as bomb as the first time. The flavors are all on point and they have great tasting salsas to add to the mix. I will definitely be back again next time I'm in San Diego. The staff is very friendly and only added to a great experience. Really good fish tacos. Burrito was hearty and looked phenomenal.
