1. Ceviche Classico – $21

A seafood lover's dream, our Ceviche Classico is a refreshing and vibrant appetizer. Featuring fresh grouper and shrimp, this dish is marinated in aji rocoto, leche de tigre, and zesty lime juice. Accented with crispy corn kernels, sweet potato purée, and cuzco corn, this ceviche is perfect to kick off your meal on a light and flavorful note.

2. Tulio’s Nachos – $18

An all-time favorite for sharing (or not!), Tulio’s Nachos take a classic comfort food and elevate it. Tortilla chips are topped with black beans, pico de gallo, melted cheese, jalapeños, pickled onions, tomato, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.

Want to add a protein punch? You can customize them with:

  • Chicken +$7

  • Steak +$9

  • Shrimp +$9

Whether you're starting the night or pairing it with a drink, these nachos are a party in every bite.

3. Short Rib Birria Tacos – $26

One of the most beloved dishes on our menu, the Short Rib Birria Tacos are packed with flavor and slow-cooked tenderness. We braise short ribs for hours until they’re melt-in-your-mouth perfect, then stuff them into three seared corn tortillas with melted cheese, onion, and cilantro. The final touch? A warm bowl of birria consommé for the ultimate dipping experience.

4. Lettuce Wraps – Custom Price

For a light yet flavorful option, our Lettuce Wraps are a refreshing alternative. Choose your protein and enjoy it lightly blackened, wrapped in crisp iceberg lettuce cups with pickled onion, pico de gallo, red and green peppers, and yellow onions. It's guilt-free and packed with flavor.

 

5. Beef Taco – $6

A crowd favorite, our beef taco combines spicy ground beef, bacon, Mexican cheese, pico de gallo, lettuce, and sour cream. This taco is the perfect marriage of rich and spicy with creamy and cool toppings.

6. Chicken Taco – $6

For those who enjoy something a little milder but just as flavorful, our chicken taco comes with marinated chicken, pico de gallo, avocado, lettuce, and our signature chipotle mayo. A great choice for anyone looking for a well-balanced taco.

7. Carne Asada Taco – $7.5

For meat lovers, the Carne Asada Taco is a must. Featuring grilled steak, pickled onions, pico de gallo, purple cabbage, and our signature avocado crema, this taco is rich, smoky, and layered with textures and spice.

8. Carnitas Taco – $7.5

A nod to authentic street tacos, our Carnitas Taco brings together shredded pork, refried beans, guacamole, queso fresco, pico de gallo, and fresh cilantro. Each bite delivers that crispy-soft combo you expect from properly cooked carnitas.

9. Shrimp Taco – $7.5

The shrimp taco is a tropical twist on a classic. Lightly blackened shrimp are paired with lettuce, chipotle mayo, and a sweet-spicy mango jalapeño salsa. This taco is the perfect blend of heat, crunch, and zest.

10. Portobello Taco – $7

Vegetarians, rejoice! The Portobello Taco is a hearty and flavorful plant-based option. We combine roasted mushrooms, onions, peppers, refried black beans, avocado, pico de gallo, and avocado sauce for a taco that’s both satisfying and healthy.

Bonus: Grouper Taco – $7.5

Can’t get enough seafood? Our Grouper Taco features crispy grouper, purple cabbage, pickled onion, pico de gallo, and our house-made avocado crema. This taco is crunchy, creamy, and perfectly balanced.
