Reviews for Tocaya Modern Mexican in Venice, CA
Small and trendy place for counter-order Mexican food (and drinks). The food was good and decently priced. Service left a little... to be desired, especially as they forgot about the margarita I ordered and I had to get back up a couple times to basicallydemand it. There's a small parking lot on site.

Nice place and good Vegan options. We had taco bowl and quessedella. They have nice kick spice worth visit to the place.
Cute and hip taco shop off of Venice beach. Passion fruit margarita is a little on the sweet side but delicious. Guacamole comes... with plantain chips and pomegranate, which is unique. Shrimp taco is nice and spicy. Read more
Went to get some acqua fresca and the menu was so reasonable and looked so yummy, I just couldn't resist. Good thing I didn't, I... had two tacos and a side of Guacamole, well it was AMAZING! Let me just say it's a great concept withvegetarian/vegan/gluten-free basis tacos. You can build on it and add some meat/cheeses. What's crazy is that I took what wasrecommended for the taco's meat and cheese and what a great combo. I had the PIÑA PASTOR with TURKEY PICANTE + QUESO COTIJA andthe Baja with MAHI MAHI + COTIJA CHEESE. They were delicious and just spicy enough to be good (not too hot). But what surprisedme the most was the nice counter waiter and his recommendations. I was so happy he told me to go with the Guacamole and to trythe plantain chips, it was great. Would recommend anyone to just go there and try it. I will definitely continue going to thisgreat modern Mexican restaurant! Read more
Pomegranate does go on guacamole!! Love this place. Drinks are great, happy hour deals even better. Great for a quick bite.... Everything we tried was top notch!! Read more
Came from out of town to visit Venice Beach and wanted Mexican food. This place stood out to me. No regrets. The margarita... tasted so fresh and the burrito was solid. I have a good feeling everything on the menu is tasty. I?d definitely come back. Therestrooms are outside the restaurant. Kind of strange but works. The staff was nice and helpful. Cute ambiance.

We went there based on the reviews. However, we were very disappointed. Food tastiness gets 3 or 4 out of 5. Service get... 3 Ambiance 2 Food quantity 1 or 2. You must eat before coming here!! No free chips and salsa here, no refillable drinks. Price 1or 2. I can get more tasty Mexican food, larger quantity at half the price in 100 other places in LA. I totally do notrecommend. Read more
