TURF N’ SURF:
Turf N’ Surf is hands down, the best fish taco in the whole city of Austin. Owner Ralph Gilmore is an example of why Austin has such a cool vibe. Ralph originally started as the Turf ‘N’ Surf trailer made of 90% recyclables and makes a point to personally say hello to every customer. They have fresh fish daily specials, served in hearty portions which can be grilled, blackened or fried as a po-boy, taco or salad. Try the grilled fish of the day tacos and sweet potato fries.
Tip: Open daily for lunch and dinner. Located within Lavaca St bar or outside window ordering available too.
