the fish taco critics

Our Reviewing Criteria

What is the ratio of fish to filling?

Sometimes you order a fish taco and what you end up getting is a coleslaw taco with a few stray pieces of fish that appear to have accidentally fallen into the coleslaw pot.

Don’t do that to us.  We will cut you.

Can you eat it without wearing it?

OK, let’s face it: if you’re worried about a few drops here and there you’re probably wrapped a little too tight for regular fish taco consumption anyway.  However, sometimes what you end up getting looks great, but the drippiness factor undermines the integrity of the tortilla, and before you know it you have a massive structural failure.

That’s the sort of thing we are talking about.   We don’t want to end up eating our fish tacos with a spoon.

How does it taste?

This, so to speak, is where the rubber meets the road.  What’s the spiciness level–does it have a little kick?  And what’s in it besides the fish?  Does it appear they gave it some serious consideration, or is it really just filler? And finally, how’s the fish–is it some nicely grilled Mahi or Grouper right out of the sea, or do you suspect it’s some microwaved Tilapia that’s been inhabiting the depths of the freezer for the last six months?
