“ Best seafood I've tasted in Texas. Im from the coast in MX and this tasted amazing. Definitely recommend and will be coming back ”
“ The food was amazing grant it was empty but their other place would have been too loud. I came in with a migraine and needed a quiet but great food and we found it. I ordered Augua Chile for me I eat Chile so it was a medium spice for but the owner let me taste their mango Chile spice it was hot it will wake up the dead but I enjoyed it. Owner was very pleasant and generous. My husband carne asada and he loved as well plus he was dipping in my Augua Chile for him coming back. But want the party scene go to the one on Montana Ave ”
“ Parking in the back. Super cool decor when you walk in. Good music playing. The girl who took our order is so friendly and attentive and kind. The food is fantastic. We started with the house salsa and chips which was so yummy. Then octopus with their yummy spicy cream sauce. I ordered 2 fish/2shrimp tacos and my husband ordered 4 ribeye tacos. Everything was simply delicious and fresh. Definitely recommend this little sweet little gem. ”
“ From top to bottom, everything was fresh: the tortilla, the white fish, the cabbage, and even the chips! With any seasoning at all - a blackened coating would've been superb - Mariscos would merit an unqualified 5 from me. But I have to land on 4 because unsalted fish doesn't taste like much, even when it's fresh. The cook spoke a little English, and the waitress even less. Still, with the help of Google Translate's camera feature, I was able to parse the menu, which was mostly in Spanish. I felt the hospitality even though I didn't feel the language. I loved that the tacos were served with green, red, and chipotle sauce, neatly eliding the question that seems to come up at every restaurant in the region. For a 500 mL Mexican Coke and four fish tacos, the bill came to under $11 before tip. I was gobsmacked. There are places where I'd pay more than that for an appetizer in the northeast. ”
“ Looks like this is the place to eat if you appreciate amazing seafood! Look no further. The sever Ricky is out of this world. He is always happy to see us and he is super accommodating to his patrons. I love this place! ”
“ This place has such an amazing vibe. They play mariachi music and the wall is lined with sombreros and sugar skulls. The staff was very friendly even though I don't speak much Spanish. They tried so hard to help me understand and that was freaky appreciated. We ordered the ceviche, an aqua chili, and their taco mix. Portions are large and the taste was so good. I highly recommend this place. ”
“ I've eaten a lot of fish tacos in my day and these were some of the best. These are straight out of a surfing trip to Baja, good fresh tasting fish with the perfect amount and texture of breading. Nice selection of salsas served with them too. Order these with a Tecate and you will not be disappointed. I will definitely come back to try all of their other tacos. Pepper plant Sauce = No ”
“ Amazing lunch today. Came to El Paso for work today and popped in this quaint looking place. The menus look good, the atmosphere is great and the food was delicious. I'll be back for sure. ”
