Taqueria Rendon (Ocean City)

I drive to ocean city, a 1.5 hour drive, for this food. I do like the beach but I *could* go to any beach. I come to ocean city so I can eat the best burritos and tacos.

I have never left a review on the internet of any restaurant but I feel it is my divine duty to tell to world to come to OCNJ and get the Pinche Wedge Fries!!!!!! Life-changing stuff I’m so serious

Wow. I am shocked to find gourmet and authentic Latin cuisine. They are not just your average board walk food. These are top notch 100% serious Latin cuisine at your fingertips tips. I HIGHLY recommend the Chicken tacos. Wow!!!!! They even threw a little bit of tomatillo sauce for free in there. Yes I tipped. (Why not?) Stop on by for authentic Mexican.

This place is seriously awesome, and a blessing to have on the Boardwalk amongst all of the other restaurants that are 90% the same types of food items. I have a food allergy to milk, so finding something to eat on the Boardwalk is pretty impossible. I decided to try the Beef Empanadas here, as well as the Chicken Bowl without the ranch sauce. Both were AMAZING!! I ended up ordering from them every day I was there, and I never got sick of it. The portions are also really good for the prices. Please support a place like this at least once while on vacation while you're surrounded by a sea of pizza and fries. Bonus - they play great music while you wait !

There was a plastic shard in my husbands steak tacos. Instead of taking ownership and apologizing, I was repeatedly told they don’t have any glass. I told them it was not glass, it was plastic. They said sorry and would not offer a refund as the tacos were eaten on the beach and we found plastic in the last one. Very disappointing because it’s a problem that could have been fixed. Will not return. Awful service, food is mediocre. Eat at your own risk.

Beef empanadas are delicious and so filling for only $3! Not to mention the tasty passion fruit juice and birria boxes that are so amazing. And the employees are so friendly! This place is a gem of the boardwalk and I recommend everyone gives it a try!

Do yourself a favor and skip the usual pizza and fries—this is the real gem on the boardwalk. Sitting on the boardwalk with ocean views and a plate full of tacos? Can’t beat it. Whether you're taking a break from the beach or ending your day with something tasty, this is the place.

I stopped by for a horchata, and it was delicious! You can usually tell when horchata is old or not made well, but this one was fresh and full of flavor, it definitely stood out. I didn’t get a chance to try the food since I was already waiting on an order from a neighboring spot, but I’m definitely planning to come back and give it a try. I’d give it 4 stars based on the horchata alone—it was that good! I’ll 100% be ordering it again next time.
