We usually get either mild or medium garlic butter, as they both still have a decent spice kick. Of course we get extra corn a a potatoes as well for a few more dollars. They offer a lot more in their menus but we usually stick to the snow crab legs and clams. Staff is always friendly and service is fast. Establishment is always clean and they also have a cute little handwashing station in the dining area! Pretty cool designs for the booths as well with hand written notes and signatures all over!

My husband and I came here a while back.. (it was a fairly new spot in Visalia that we hadn't…read moretried). When we walked in the vibes seemed cool, only 2 busy tables. The music was a little unsettling for some time for the occasion and setting , but then switched to oldies, and that was nice! Haha the service was mediocre (seems like that most places lately) Food, we shared crab legs shrimp mussels sausage, potatoes with the recommended flavor. But the flavor was basic and really nothing special about it. It was definitely missing something. we unfortunately were both sick for the next 2 days (food poisoning **this was the only thing outside the norm that we ate). We enjoyed each others company Wanted to love it, but it's not for us Glad we got to try a new spot though! $$$$ Oh also this is a costly place. But consider its seafood in the valley.

The tacos were very really good too, personally I'm a shrimp gal, I love shrimp. So trying both the fish and shrimp tacos, I would say the shrimp ones were far more better than the fish. I loved how the shrimp is breaded, which makes it taste more flavorful. Let's talk about those empanadas !! They were BOMBBB. I understand why they are very popular, they got a really good cheese pull and everything. For sure those empanadas stole the show. The atmosphere was very nice, there is no indoor seating. Everything is outside, if I could describe it, it's more of like a patio kind of sit down. They do have an area where it's shaded and u can eat comfortably tho.

First one of the fellow restaurants in Visalia that will accommodate 26 people and seated together…read more Two servers for our group, and unlike other Visalia restaurants they didn't charge a group fee or forced 18% tip or other hidden charges for using a credit card. Tables were clean with utensils and extra plates. Our servers were super friendly and made you feel welcome. Drinks were for various for our group but what unique is that I was unsure of tea because they said it was real and often I'm disappointed because it's not. Yet the server said if you don't like it I'll let you switch drinks. After it was served they checked to make sure I was happy. Needless, to say 26 people you just about see the entire menu served. There was one cheese burger which was cooked properly and with hot fries, fish and chips which had large pieces of fried cod and served with claw slaw. Kids at the table got chicken tenders with fries, which were moist and not over cooked or hard to bite into. Parmesan Crusted Chicken served with mash potatoes and a mixed vegetables. Fantastic chicken not over cooked, super flavorful and moist. Just the right amount of sauce and tomatoes. There were a couple of shrimp linguine Alfredo. Just the right amount of sauce and shrimp. There was a Mariners Seafood Boil, which was stream and seasoned perfectly. Considering the amount of seafood it was great. Now the dish I enjoy myself, Endless Shrimp. Our location you picked three styles which were the Alfredo, coconut and Walt's. The price is 29.99 and is that a value? Yes sir or ma, a great value. Placed my and waited for it. Once it was placed on the table, my server asked what would I like again. Even before starting eating I ordered another Walt's and Coconut shrimp. It less than eight minutes to get the order and they wanted to know which I wanted next. The first plate included 12 rather large butter flyer shrimp. First, Walt's was shrimp was lite batter. Coconut batter was lite again with the right of coconut on it, and Alfredo paste was mixed with flavorful sauce and shrimp placed on top and again not over cooked. Three different shrimp total was 12 and two additional orders of 8 makes 20 shrimp total and probably could have finished two more orders. So with that said it was about $1.49 per shrimp. Sauces were standard cocktail and coconut sauce. I will say I wasn't a fan of the coconut sauce. Got the hush puppies as a side which to me seemed lifeless. They were just kinda bland in taste. Again, the endless shrimp special is well worth the price and I can say the Red Lobster service was outstanding. My last refill of tea the server stated I can bring that in a to go cup. I thank them but no. Normally I would describe two different dishes but today was unique that it was a large group. Thank you Red lobster.

The service was amazing and personable. I loved the waitress…read more However, the menu prices were ridiculously high. I found the food to be bland and lacking flavor and seasoning. I ordered salmon, which was a very large piece of salmon and it looked delightful, but no flavor at all. It was overcooked so it was a bit dry and I could tell without even asking that this was farm raised pre-frozen salmon. This was not a $30 slice of salmon. It was served on a bed of lettuce.. the lettuce was crisp and fresh and there was an egg included, which was a bit chewy for a hard boiled egg so it was overcooked as well. There were several large slices of tomatoes, which were just too big and probably should've been diced up and served appropriately. There was also some large slices of cucumber and a big slice of onion. There was one little bread stick. It just did not and was not suitable for a restaurant of this caliber/price range. i'd have to say I was very disappointed. The value of the food did not match the price tag. Conclusively very disappointed of this $40 salad.

The ambiance is casual with a traditional taqueria feel to it and lots of windows to people watch. Service was fast and casual too. We always had everything we needed. I would recommend this place to anyone in Visalia that likes real authentic Mexican mariscos!

The calamari is the star of the show. It is delicious and a must-try. I went back here and so much has changed!!! The menu has expanded and that is amazing. I always get the shrimp and rice. Sometimes I get fried rice or steamed rice and it has amazing, tasty tempura batter of the calamari. I do recommend getting two plates of calamari!!! It is super addicting. My family and I can't stop eating it because it is that good. Service is amazing!!! I remember it is a family-owned business. My family and I used to remember the owners back when I lived in Lemoore. They are very nice people and will bring you great service and amazing food. Btw it is always packed!!! Parking is also difficult!!! It is in front of a park and it is in an okay place but worth it to go. The ambiance is the same as I remembered. It is big. Before, it was a small shop and hopefully, they expand. I low-key wish there was one in North Cal because my family and I miss the calamari. But it is still nice to visit here and see how this small business became a huge

Like another customer stated that it had a funky odor and it was covered with bleach smell was true on my first visit and after talking with the owner of the restaurant, the menu sounded like it was worth coming back. I came back a second time and the owner recognized me and greeted me and directed us towards our table. There was no odor this time and it is an older establishment that actually was a house at one time. If you sit in the back area you can still see the crown moldings of the living area. We ordered the Marlin Empanadas- there is 4 to an order ($12). I wish I cut one so that you can see in the picture that it definitely is Marlin. Marlin is red flesh and I've fished in Cabo San Lucas and caught marlin and it's not the best flavored fish as it is dense and very oily. This definitely tasted like I remembered the last time I caught a marlin! Still this was good as I don't see marlin on the menu much so I usually order shrimp empanadas. We ordered Cooked Seafood Molcajete- Shrimp, octopus, crab, fish, and mussels. It came out boiling hot and I'm going to post video of the clay pot so you can see that it comes out hot from the kitchen!! Ordered a side of whole beans and homemade corn tortillas. Yes they do have homemade corn tortillas here and I definitely recommend! They also have a Tomahawk steak served with shrimp ($75) that I hear is a good seller!! Come support this restaurant! It's located on North Sante Fe and away from most businesses so you don't know it's there or has re-opened like I did!! Quality is good and everything had good flavor!

I'm very disappointed with my recent experience on 6/29. During our lunch visit, I placed a to-go…read moreorder for an "El Limonero" (fish ceviche) tostada along with our dine-in meal. When we arrived at my family member's house in Shafter and opened the container, the entire lime juice had leaked into the bag, and what was left was basically just a tiny portion of cucumber and avocado--definitely not a complete order. How was this almost $20 ($15 + Svc fee) I immediately took a photo and called the restaurant. Our server, Adriana, asked me to text the picture to the # I was calling +1 (559) 830-4004 so the manager could approve a refund. I did exactly as instructed, and they did respond after reviewing picture and said they would issue refund... but despite following up multiple times, no one ever processed my refund or even responded. Considering how expensive the food is here (plus added service fees), it's really disappointing to be treated with such unprofessionalism. All I expected was accountability and a resolution for an order that was clearly incomplete. Unfortunately, the lack of communication and customer care has left a very negative impression, and I don't plan to return.
