"If you're serious about Mexican seafood, you come to Oscar's, where the creative and extremely fresh seafood tacos are the main draw. Tucked next to a smoke shop, Oscar's is pretty nondescript—except for the line out the door. Once you're inside, driftwood paneling and colorful ocean-themed murals set the casual mood. The  tacos are the main draw for most people, but you would be missing out if you didn't try the tortas (the "Fisherman's" is a symphony of spicy shrimp, scallops, grilled, and smoked fish) or the fish stew. Sadly, you won't be able to wash down your fish taco with a cold Pacifico, but Jarritos and classic Coca-Cola (in the glass bottle, of course) make a decent substitute. Remember, this is a Mexican joint, so don't forget a side of homemade pinto beans and rice." - Archana Ram
