We tried two kinds of ceviche and a shrimp taco. the ceviche with mango - it was good but was lacking lime and citrus flavor but overall the choices of seafood was greatly balanced with the red onion and tomato and all. 3 Amigos ceviche - this was really nicely done with the zest, citrus flavor and the combo of all i ingredients. it just happened to be a tad on the saltier side ( may have been just today's batch that had too much salt). Really enjoyed that both ceviches did come with good amount of crunchy tostada. We also tried the shrimp taco. Their house chipotle sauce on the shrimp taco was a chefs kiss and levered the flavor so well.

The seafood tower was really large and the seafood was fresh. the mango ceviche was another top favorite. It was a little different than the other ceviches since it had the fresh mango and the sushi grade tuna. The soup lacked a lot flavor it was probably our least favorite dish. The fried fish was overcooked and small for the price.

The size were okay. The green tomatoes were different as we've never had them fried before, but they are very similar to the concept of fried pickles. Service was amazing as our waiter was very attentive and very kind. Ambience is very welcoming and nicely decorated. I had to take one off because of how the condition of the bathrooms were. I don't know if it was at the end of the day and that was a reason, but the bathroom state was in a poor condition. Overall, a solid spot to visit if you're craving some fish.

New Orleans BBQ Shrimp - tasty and a pretty big portion with freshly grilled bread 2. Steamed Mussels - another bigger portion app that had a really nice white wine butter sauce 3. Grilled Oysters - these were excellent and I could've ordered many more portions 4. Clam Chowda - bowl was a big portion and super filling so could've probably just done the cup. 5. Shrimp & Grits - this was just ok in my opinion. We've had way better 6. Lastly ended with the creme brulee which was good but the topping of white powdered chocolate (?) and sorbet was such a weird pairing and did not go well. Overall this would be 3.5 stars. Nothing here that I'd crave and want to come back for but not a bad meal either. Convenient location next to so many offices and Westlake, and plenty of parking.

We started off with a mango margarita, which was not my favorite 6/10, it was very clumpy and seemed like the just dumped in some artificial mango sauce. The arancini could've been good but it had so many onions, I don't mind onions but I think the portion of onions just took over, barely got any cheese from it. 5/10. The beer battered fish and chips were very good, 9/10. I would eat this again for sure. The seasoned grilled fish was disappointing, it was flounder but it just lacked seasoning, very bland. I was mixing it was sauces that came on the side for my beer battered fish. The risotto didn't do much for the dish, considering it was a seasonal fish, I just thought it would be better. Good place overall.

I decided to give them one more try today, I am so glad I did. They have a new drink on the menu, frozen margaritas so of course I had to order one! And of course, my old standby : boiled CRAWFISH with a potato on the side so I got 2 pounds spicy! These were probably the best CRAWFISH I have had in the last two years, they popped right out of the shell clean, perfectly seasoned, and bonus! Lots of big claws full of meat as well! The margarita was definitely an adult version, not too sweet very nicely, balanced with a distinct crisp lime/tequila tango I will definitely come back again, but this place has puzzled me recently!

The man cooking is incredibly sweet and came in clutch when I forgot to order seasoning. I was visiting from a region known for crab/seafood boils and was not disappointed! Crab tends to turn to shreds when it's overboiled, and I was EASILY pulling out nice, intact pieces from the shell, so no worries about that here. If you're in the area, definitely approach the truck even if it looks closed--worth it to double check!

I started with the Margarita on the rocks from the happy hour menu. It was made from scratch with tequila, triple sec, fresh lime, and cane sugar. I added mango flavor and tajin. The event ordered the Tropical Ceviche for the table with fresh fish cured in lime, with cilantro, avocado and onions. It was served with plantain chips. The flavors in this ceviche were so balanced and light. I was blown away on how much I enjoyed this. For my entree, I ordered Lechón Asado the most traditional Cuban dish. It is pulled pork marinated with Cuban Mojo criollo and slowly oven roasted. It was served with your choice of beans, rice and plantain. I went with the black beans, white rice and Yucca con Mojo. You can taste the citrus, garlic, and slow-roasted depth in every bite. It was juicy without being heavy and felt authentically prepared. The portion was generous, and everything on the plate complemented the pork beautifully. It felt comforting, well balanced, and thoughtfully executed. I did have an issue with slow service as far as receiving my food and one margarita I ordered was never delivered and I had to follow up on. Also my food was added to another person's check instead of on a separate check. However, these issues can be expected with a large event. It was a great location to host an event. If you're craving real Cuban flavors, Cuba 512 is a great choice.
