This is a tiny place that is not at all pretentious. It is modest, but the super quesadillas and other dining options at this tiny Mexican food spot is popular with locals and folks who travel through the area and know of it's well earned reputation. It does get quite a line on weekends during lunch or dinner time. If you want to eat at anything other than a picnic table, then you will need to take your order to go.

Good local pizza made to order. Call ahead. It's best to get the pizza to go and pick up so that it's fresh and hot. They do also deliver. Salads and sweets are available but vary. Call to inquire.

Parks & Nature

You are staying on the Reserve, but don't miss the enchanted forest. Walk to the other side of the reserve as well.

Beautiful and legendary. Read up on the area and the contest before strolling out to the area. Maverick's and the contest is held very far off shore, but the views of the shore are beautiful and worth a visit.

This is the closest locally owned, small, gourmet grocery store in the Moss Beach area. Check their hours. It is a go to place for locals on weekends, when traffic is too congested to allow for easy travel into the main stores in downtown Half Moon Bay.
