What other places in town serve fish tacos?

In a previous thread there was discussion of allegedly bad...I say allegedly because I mayself have not had them...fish tacos at WHOLE FOOD MARKET. Shredded tilapia(?) instead of chunks of mahi mahi as at Dingo's.

Anywhere else? Not that I have heard of or seen.

I had them at fish city grill, with grilled Salmon and they were great, have not been to the others, but Le reyna has had some great reviews.....

Just got back from Dingos and the fish tacos were good, wife had a turkey burger with cranberry chipolte mayo that was great came with a salad with homemade bleau cheese dressing that was the BEST I have ever had, got the shrimp bong as an appetizer that I would not get again. Overall not only was the food good, but the portions very generous,prices more than fair, staff very friendly, and something that has not been mentioned but the entire place was spotless

Went to Dingo's for the first time today. We had the shrimp bong appetizer - good, but maybe not worth the price. It's basically a little glass fish bowl with a marinade in the bottom, complete with spices settled to the bottom, and a half of lemon sitting in the marinade with four skewers protruding from it, each with two grilled shrimp. The flavor was tasty, but the cost, $10, was not really worth it. Wouldn't get it again for that reason (flavor-to-cost-ratio).

I had a burger. I had ordered with cheddar, but no cheddar was on it. That said, there's something that set it apart from other area restaurants (in a good way). It had that lovely char-grilled flavor you get when something's grilled as opposed to fried on a skillet. It was good (think Burger King versus McD's). It was seasoned well, too.

My better half had the fish-and-chips. The fish (we asked the waiter what they use - mahi mahi today) was well-seasoned and had a crispy sear on both sides. Cooked to perfection, really. The fries were wedge-cut and tasted fine.

So, the food was good. A drawback - I initially ordered the turkey, brie, and fig spread sandwich. The waiter said, "The chef wasn't pleased with the brie that arrived this morning, so that's not available." Not sure about the explanation, but glad I wasn't served sub-standard brie, so it was the right thing for them to do. Kudos for that.

The place WAS spotless, like a previous poster said. Also, the flat-screen tv's featured Australian football ("footie") which was a nice, authentic touch.

We'll go back. I'd give it ***1/2 of ***** this first time around, not for reasons regarding food, but just the mix-ups with the ordering (no cheddar, no turkey and brie, etc).

Wait a minute....I thought by reading post before this place opened it would fail.....
