Opened in September 2023 by Mexico City-born founder Gerry Torres, the City Tacos OB Playground occupies a 10,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor compound on Voltaire Street. The menu runs up to 20 taco variations — traditional carne asada and carnitas alongside caseros like pulled pork in Mayan achiote sauce and beer-battered mahi mahi — drawing from the same Baja-meets-central-Mexico repertoire as Nico's Mexican Food nearby. A turfed courtyard features giant-sized checkers, chess, and Connect 4 sets, a gated dog park, and murals by a dozen local OB artists coordinated through the Voltaire Art & Makers Walk. Ten draft lines pour exclusively from San Diego craft breweries, a rotating tap program that complements the curated beer walls at Kilowatt Brewing Ocean Beach. Full-compound buyouts accommodate private events with a taco bar, lawn games, and a live-music stage.
