    Ceviche de camaron
    My C.

    Thought I'd try a new place for ceviche. I had high hopes but was disappointed. They used very small shrimp and most of the ceviche was onion. It was overpowered by onion. It's your average place to eat and service is good but I was disappointed in this dish. I wouldn't buy the ceviche again but I'd be willing to give it another chance on other dishes.

    Really good seafood Mexican place. Got invited here right after they opened the place and have been here a few times since then. The place is nice and the service is super cool and helpful. The food is great, I have tried many things and the one that I liked least was the shrimp burger. A little more effort on that one would have got them that 5th star. Besides from that everything was great. My favorite by far is the Camarones vaqueros. Good size and quality shrimp perfectly seasoned accompanied with a really flavorful white rice, fresh and delicious crab salad and of course Mexican restaurant salad (lettuce, tomato, onion and avocado). They give you complimentary shrimp soup that is spicy and delicious. I have also tried the breaded shrimp among other dishes and all are great. Regular drink menu and BYOB. Cowboy shrimp, nice place, great food and nice service.

    I really enjoyed my first visit, and will come back again. The complimentary shrimp consome is delicious, full flavored, spiced but not spicy, and carries wonderful flavors of the ocean with a light touch. The Camarón Vaquero plate was mildly spiced, but had lots of garlic and butter flavors. Very doable for those who don't like a lot of heat. With the crab salad and avocado provided, along with some hot sauce and their creamy seafood sauce, these shrimp make great tacos. Jamaica was good; not too sweet like some places make it. I was excited that they had Guayaba, but it was on the sweeter side and I couldn't drink it. I wasn't going to let my preference for the less sweet dictate the loss of a star.

    This is supposed to be a coctel de camaron

    This is a hit or miss spot. Ordered cucarachas, shrimp cocktail and ceviche. Each one of them was tasteless. Will probably avoid going back.

    Se pasan. I ordered to go a COCKTAIL DE CAMARÓN MUY SIMPLE SÚPER EASY. gave me a large bucket of old shrimp that tasted disgusting and did not even shake the freaking cocktail I had one side of ketchup and veggies and the bottom of it dead a$$ shrimp. I spent $17 forTHUS FOOD POISONING THE ONLY REASON WHY PEOPLE GO HERE I THINK IS BECAUSE ITS BYOB FRIENDLY. But damn this food is fng bogus. Gracias por el vomito y chorro el camarón tan "vaquero. Q

    This place is great , the food is awesome best sea food I had in a while. The service was the best. And prices are cheap compared to other places. I wanted to come to this place since they opened but I never gave it a chance. Now it's one of my favorite places.

Cash or card.....Limited space inside......Straightforward. You can wait in your car, while they perpare your order. The large picture windows allow you to see inside, so you'll have an idea when you order is ready. Although they didn't have jumbo shrimp at this location, they did at other locations.......Did I mention they have 4 locations? I opted for the "Chicago Style" shrimp, which i'm told is large shrimp with garlic breading. Served by weight, cooked to order and served in an open wax paper bag for crunchiness.......The shrimp were delicious. Perfectly cooked and the sesoning was light. I prefer cocktail sauce and hot sauce. These sauces were not homemade but good just the same........The servings for the sauces matched the shrimp size.......Large......I went back the next day...Overall, a great first time customer experience.

    Avoid This Place: A Dive Bar Masquerading as a Restaurant…read more​If I could give this place zero stars, I would. We came to Langostra Nayarita expecting a decent meal, but what we got was four and a half hours of pure frustration. ​We arrived ahead of our group and were seated quickly, but that was the only efficient part of the entire experience. They dropped off a tiny cup of ceviche and some tostadas, and then we effectively ceased to exist to the staff. ​The service was nonexistent. Our waitress (the one with blonde hair) was the definition of unprofessional. She spent the entire afternoon doing shots with other customers and lounging at their tables rather than doing her job. In the nearly five hours we were there, we only saw her twice. ​To make matters worse: ​The Food: Completely average. Nothing justifies the lack of service. ​The Atmosphere: They're acting more like a messy dive bar than a professional restaurant. ​The Exit: We have currently been waiting for our check for over an hour. ​It is insulting to pay for a meal when you have to beg for the bare minimum of attention. Save your time and your money--skip this place. I will never be back.

We always come for family events or for a good dinner here. Good always hot and tasty. Their mussels and shrimp are flavorful. Also BYOB so perfect place to come to eat and drink and enjoy. Service is always good too as the workers are super friendly and nice.
