Welcome to the Hidden Kitchen

Thank you so much for being here and for waiting in liNE (we know it gets long sometimes!)

here's a fun little "what to expect info guide while you wait!"

*feel free to skip this info and head straight for the menu ( found on the second page!)*

If this is your first time, you're doing great! Please order at the window on the front side of the building (you'll see the register!)

All tickets are made in the order that they are received!


We like to think of this as you visiting our home - and I come from a latin family where mi casa es su casa. We want you to feel comfortable grabbing what you need but are here to assist you with all of it!

We will bring silverware, syrups, and sauces out to your table along with your smoothies + food!

You will grab your water and coffee (found at the back of the restaurant) and to go boxes!


As far as wait times go, we do our very best to keep them as manageable as possible Once you've ordered your food, our average wait time (it's taken time to get these down but we have been training hard!) range between 10-35 minutes. We know this is a long range, but that's because we're really busy on the weekends, and less busy during the week! When the line looks long, I would anticipate the wait time for food being around 15-25 minutes. On our busiest days wait times can get up to 45 minutes from start to finish. If the line is short, you can expect a shorter wait time! Feel free to ask for accurate/ updated wait times at the register, or call us if you want to plan your visit - we have a specific way to calculate this based on the tickets we have in the cooktop area!


We feel very proud of our slow food commitment. Slow food doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to take lots of time to make your food, but what it does mean is that we make every single ingredient from scratch, from start to finish. We have three people who spend almost the entire day (every day) in Cayucos preparing all of the delicious ingredients prepared for service for both our Hidden Kitchen locations. Everything we offer is made to order - we assure you that we are moving as quickly as humanly possible, and using a ton of energy and love to make sure that your food comes out in a timely manner while upholding our value of quality and care we hold, AND taking care that our staff is remaining healthy and hydrated!


Some fun things to note while you wait:


1. We hand press all of our blue corn tortillas - this is a critical part of what makes our tortillas so dang delicious!

2. It takes around 7 minutes to cook our waffles to perfection in our irons: we have 5 waffle irons (double sided) so we can make 10 waffles every 7ish minutes. We wish we could have more irons, but our building is very old and we've pulled all available electricity to the waffle irons we currently have! Plus, we only have so much room on the cooktop for the toppings that go on top of the waffles! And don't forget room on the cooktop for tortillas and taco fixings!

3. We are simultaneously receiving phone orders in addition to orders coming in from the register! This can contribute to wait times on really busy days! Thank you for understanding <3

4. On our busiest days (Saturday and Sunday) we sometimes make upwards of 300 tacos, 150 smoothies, and 350 waffles. THATS A TON OF FOOD for 6 hours of service! We do sincerely thank you for the endless support and understanding of the nature of our busy days!

5. ***Everything on the food menu is celiac friendly/ gluten free*** yes, we did say that. Our beer and Micheladas are the only non GF items we offer!

6. Our HK sauce is dairy free but not vegan (it contains eggs)! HK sauce is a very clean chipotle aioli we make in house. We use avocado oil instead of rancid seed or veggie oils to help everyone's stomachs feel great after eating! We do not use any seed or vegetable oils in the kitchen because we think having happy bellies is way better.

If you have an allergy please let us know! Our menu can accommodate most allergies but because we are a gluten free restaurant, we use alternative flours and other ingredients. *Our food may contain, tree nuts, peanuts, dairy and other ingredients. Please alert us if you have an allergy!*

HK Crew!
