Just off the Burleigh surf, Costa Taco dials Mexican street food down to hot planchas, salt, and crisp corn tortillas. Gold Coast diners zero in on the griddled beef tacos dipped into cups of savoury consomé, flanked by crunchy Baja fish and shareable nachos. The dining room runs fast and informal—plates drop in rapid waves, while ice-cold coconut margaritas balance out the hot sauces.
- Authentic Street Bites: Patrons regularly pair charred street-style elote with crisp fish tacos and cheesy quesabirrias dunked into rich consomé.
- Regional Mexican Drinks: The bar crafts tart tamarindo sips alongside cold micheladas and popular coconut margaritas to beat coastal heat.
- Coastal Vacation Vibe: Just a short walk from the waves, the dining room channels a relaxed holiday pace suited for group taco spreads.

Book Ahead for Peak Weekend Evenings
The venue fills quickly during weekend peak hours, particularly on Saturday nights. Reserve your table in advance to avoid extended waits and secure smooth seating.
Dip Quesabirrias Directly into Consomé
When choosing the grilled beef quesabirrias, dip the crispy folded tortillas straight into the accompanying savory consomé to get the full rich flavor profile.
Balance Bold Micheladas with Sweeter Sips
Traditional micheladas deliver a robust, savory kick that some diners find surprisingly bold. If you prefer a lighter, cooling pairing with your tacos, choose a coconut margarita or tamarindo agua fresca.
