Cabo Fish Taco - NoDa

California fish taco place
$8.50 - BBQ Mahi Tacos (didn't buy so don't know actual bill)

I have to admit that I've never been a huge fan of the food at CFT. I like the atmosphere and the idea, but the food was never great in my opinion. Granted, I usually get the Cabo Fish Tacos (beer-battered cod w/ cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes and sauce) which are good but a little too greasy for me and never leave a good lasting impression. The chips are fine and the salsa is a fresh corn and tomato salsa which is good, but I prefer real Tex-Mex salsa so it's not my favorite. However, this has all changed. I discovered the BBQ Mahi Tacos (bbq mango marinated mahi with same fillers) and it was AWESOME!!! Definitely makes me want to go back and get them again. They serve coke products, another plus and this meal was so good, I could care less about the salsa. The sides are all fine but not my favorite (cucumber salad, mexi-slaw, beans and rice I think). Anyway, I'd encourage you to try these out and if you've never been before, it's a fun place to go in a cool part of town. If you like fish tacos, I hear these are some of the best but clearly they aren't up my alley. Anyway, hope you enjoy.
