The best "upscale" tacos I've ever had. The octopus taco, and the Korean short rib taco, are both incredible. Churros for dessert are supreme.
Awesome place with huge waits. Well worth it. Only downside I can think of is that it's so loud inside, especially in the bar half.

Sayulita Mexican is a dynamic experience both good and challenging. Their food experience is top notch, with its vibrant Mexicali-style cuisine (and I was really hoping it was just hype). The menu showcases high-quality, fresh ingredients that elevate every dish, from the flavorful tacos to the rich, savory enchiladas. Their juicy, well-balanced cocktails are a standout, especially the unique margaritas that offer a refreshing twist on the classic drink. While the food and drinks are top-notch, the wait times can be painfully long, given the restaurant’s small size. It’s definitely worth the visit, but be sure to plan carefully or arrive early to avoid the long lines. Once seated, you'll find the experience more than worth the wait!
Have been told and recommended this place a lot and was so excited to finally try. Was honestly a little disappointed with service (no real hospitality by our server) and we mentioned we can’t do spice and our food was definitely spicy. Thought it was just us but brought home leftovers and still spicy the next day. If you like spicy I would say this is your place but overall just thought was ok especially not the most hospitable atmosphere.
Had a blast, and I can see why my friends go here once a month. Tacos are average price, but premium quality, with overflow of ingredients that you will have to scoop up with your fork. Cocktails were just as good to boot, with a great attention to detail on modern twists to classic drinks. Loved the atmosphere and the staff was extremely kind and welcoming.
I forgot to take a photo of the tacos cause I loved then so much 😅

Great drinks, impressive Mexican dishes and a friendly staff make this location a great spot. Lines can be very long on weekends so make sure you put your name in early. Margaritas are superb.
Our kids brought us here. They say there is often a lineup when they open at 4 pm. Maybe because of the heat we were able to get right in. Service was very prompt and courteous. People checked on us regularly. They have an extensive drink menu. I got the Phony Negroni which I did not care for. It was my first time drinking mescal. I did not know it tastes smoky. I had two tacos - Korean short ribs and Pulpo - grilled octopus. Both were delicious and I was stuffed. Fun drinks. Great food. My only complaint is that it is very noisy and hard to hear to talk.
Oh my deliciousness!!! This 3-hour drive and 35-minute wait was absolutely worth it!! I'll be doing it again except on a week day. The drinks were strong and oh so good. The BEST mexican cuisine EVERRRRRR!!!! Every bit of food you place in your mouth is full of flavor. I haven't had delicious guacamole since I made my own. This tastes like my guacamole. I want more!! So, I'll be driving from NJ for quality food and amazing/attentive service.
Fantastic restaurant that you should definitely check out. The food and drinks are delicious, the atmosphere is cool, and the employees are great. If you're in the mood for a margarita, tacos, churros, etc. then this should be your destination. I've been told that there can be a line to get in, so plan to go early. You also won't be able to sit until your whole party arrives, so plan to hang out at the bar if you have stragglers.
