Came across this place for dinner with my family and glad that we were able to stop by. We all got taco bundles. Very flavorful and filling! Got churros too, so delicious! The staff was super kind. The outside seating was fantastic!

Best choice for Mexican at the shore and beyond! Always love Blue Cactus. Their nachos are incredible. They catered our NYE dinner with a DIY taco/bowl bar and everyone raved about the food. Super fresh, flavorful and they thought of everything we might need – even hot sauce. Don’t go anywhere else for your taco fix.

I love Mexican. CHRIS AND ETHAN were very pleasant. This is the first taco experience I had were it needed no add on. It had flavor on its own. No sauce no lemon. Try surf and turf tacos. Also desert was great. Sopapillos . Sorry i ate it before pic. Lots of help there today.

Delicious tacos, especially the Mahi and Carnitas. Also, the churros with the amazing caramel sauce were some of the best I’ve ever had. Employees were very friendly and helpful. Love this place. Will definitely be back again!

Thank you so much to the employee who quickly made my order when I showed up before opening! The online system put my order through but they weren’t supposed to open til 1pm on 9/11.
The food was delicious to enjoy on the beach, I’ll definitely get it again next year!

Even better in their new location—fresh, flavorful, and a must-visit in OC!
We stopped by Blue Cactus Taco Shop in Ocean City and were absolutely blown away. The new location is even better—spacious, cool, and perfect for groups with both indoor and outdoor seating.
There’s also plenty of parking right in front of the building, so no fighting for a spot like you do near the boardwalk—huge bonus!
We tried the crispy flour tacos (steak, surf & turf, chicken, and ground beef)—each one perfectly seasoned and delicious. The guacamole was creamy and fresh, and the taco dip (like a five-layer dip of pure goodness) was a favorite. The homemade chips came out warm and crispy—so satisfying.
And don’t skip the cilantro hot sauce—savory with just the right kick!
The owners and team were incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming, giving the place a homey, inviting vibe that really sets it apart.
Whether you’re in town for lunch or dinner, this spot is a hidden gem. Even though it’s off the boardwalk (7 min walk), it’s absolutely worth the short trip. Can’t wait to come back! This is a staple for my family’s vacation and we eat here multiple times on our vacation. No regrets!

Loved Blue Cactus when it was on the boardwalk, always one of our first stops. BUT, not sure what’s going on at the new location. Sat outside, put our order in, a few min later the waitress came back and said it would be about 30min wait. We only ordered a burrito and three beef soft tacos. It was busy but looked like a lot of people behind the counter. 30 min go by, no food. 40 min go by and no food. See a few people come in and get their food before us. 45 min no food. Meanwhile the waitress (HS girl) never came by to see if we needed anything or provide an update on our meal or apologize. At 50 min I go in and ask what the deal is, I was told 5 min. To my surprise it actually was 5 min. So, 55 min in and we get our tiny burrito and three tacos that had more lettuce and cheese than meat. Finished eating and went inside to pay because the waitress never came by to give us our check. I was kinda hoping they would maybe comp my soda or chips and salsa, but nope. So disappointed, think we’re over Blue Cactus unfortunately.

We enjoyed a Land bundle and a Taco salad. The special of the day was tacos el Pastor. When I asked if I could have it on a salad, they were happy to fulfill my order. Both were delicious. What a treat when the fresh chips and salsa were still warm!

This is for a to-go order. I was honestly impressed everything was correct on a big order on a Friday night. The guac was delicious. The natchos were good! The taco bowls were a nice option, and everyone enjoyed theirs. The chicken quesadilla was good. And for dessert the sopapillas were an interesting touch!
