About Us

Our Story

As a proud, family owned and operated business, we have been rooted in the Jersey Shore hospitality scene for over 20 years, serving the coastal communities of Wildwood and Cape May. 

After spending time in the Philadephia suburbs—where Chris trained at The Restaurant School at Walnut Hill College and honed his skills at El Taco Loco in Bucks County, PA., our passion for bold West Coast flavors and traditional culinary techniques only grew stronger.

Inspired by road trips out West and thru California—where we fell in love with beachside taco stands and vibrant specialty coffee shops (not to mention the cacti) —our dream was to bring that laid back West Coast energy to our favorite East Coast beach town.

Welcome to your Cali-Mex Haven

We truly pour our hearts into every plate and cup we serve, sourcing high quality ingredients. Whether you are a lifelong local neighbor or visiting the island for a weekend getaway, we built this space for you. We love being in the kitchen and at the espresso machine every day connecting with our regulars. 

Whether you are stopping by for a premium La Colombe coffee at sunrise or sitting on the patio enjoying fresh tacos at sunset, welcome to our little oasis of West Coast energy by the shore.
