Drinks after a hard workday were desperately needed lol. Parking: There's a small parking lot, so finding an open spot can be a bit difficult. Ambiance/Environment: Very casual and chill. They have a small space with a decent amount of indoor seating. No outdoor seating. There's no ac, so it became warm until they opened the door for fresh air. Service: You can either place an order to-go or dine in. If you're dining in, seat yourself and a worker will assist you. Thank you Vanessa for taking care of my coworker and I! She's courteous, quick, & efficient. She spoke Spanish but knows enough English to get by. Food & drinks: 1) Birria Grilled Cheese - I looove anything birria. The consome tasted amazing; not too salty. The grilled cheese had a generous amount of beef and cheese. So good! 2) Ceviche Pescado - They're known for their ceviche, so of course we had to get one. Pescado is Spanish for fish. The ceviche was citrusy and fresh. They gave us a good amount of tostadas to eat it with. 3) Mango Margarita - The mango flavor definitely came through. It was too strong. More so on the sweeter/fruity end. Pricing: Prices are as expected from a small business. We enjoyed everything, and we'll definitely be back for more!
This is your typical five star homestyle taco joint. Reminds me of the places I used to eat as a kid in Mexico. I didn't post a picture of the Horchata oh my God it's better than my mom makes me mad at my mom for not making Horchata this good. And the price is right. The fish taco was pleasantly crunchy soft with a little spicy kick to it truly undescribable and the birria taco is the best in Orange County!!!
I just asked for a Sushi roll and let me tell you it was the Bomb!!! Plus whoever was on Aux tenías ambiente bueno. They checked in on me every now n then, true hospitality from the staff. It's kinda hidden between all the other places but if you want to have some quick seafood definitely recommend dropping in. Once again Thanks for the food.
All their food is delicious. I like spicy food and they offer plenty of options. The restaurant and restroom are always clean. They have two TVs for customers to watch and music playing for an awesome vibe. I've visited this facility so many times I feel like Family! Their service is awesome.
We were on the search for some empanadas de camarón and boy is this the place to handle some cheesy, flavorful empanadas. Other yummy foods were the tacos gobernador, taco de pulpo (spicy version), and grilled cheese de birria (no photo because it was too good that hunger was quicker than the camera). The kids quesadilla with fries and a capri is good for your little ones that just eat a little bit (comen como pollito). The horchata was made with coconut and had the right amount making it a mandatory beverage to have alongside with the food. Now the only reason there's a star off is because the PARKING LOT HERE IS TERRIBLE. So 'to go' is an option if you can't stay to eat, but have someone with you when you come because at least they or you need to go get the food. :)
Everything we got was 10/10. Already planning on stopping by our next Disney trip and will be recommending to our friends.
Fresh and flavorful mariscos that reminds me of Mexico. My family and I came here last weekend and man did El Cevichazo did not disappoint. We were seated immediately and the server was beyond helpful. We ordered the aguachile verde, empanadas, tacos el gobernador, and the botana de camaron y pulpo. We met the owner and he was incredibly attentive. He gave his personal recommendations, noted the most popular items, let us try the negro sauce/marinade used for the aguachiles, and gave us a sushi roll on the house. The food itself was fresh and had the perfect kick to it. I liked the aguachiles and the green chile had a nice kick to it. The black version is less spicy and has a nice tang to it. Next time I come, I think I'll get the aguachile negro. I want to note that the aguachiles are still gray, as I know some people may have a preference. The empanadas had good flavor and were perfectly crispy. We also ordered a michelada and horchata. They add coconut to the horchata and it's refreshing without being too sweet. My mom enjoyed the michelada. Overall, the food was great and I would come back again. The only negative would be parking since El Cevichazo is in a small shopping center with limited parking. However the food and service were both great.
Stopped in for a quick solo lunch. Service was friendly and fast. Comfortable environment to eat in, 4-5 tables. Ordered two Baja style fish tacos and they were delicious. Was also provided tostadas and crackers and a glass of ice water. Great meal for about 10 bucks! Hard to beat :)
My no sabo self tried by little heart to speak Spanish, and definitely was understood (thankfully) haha. However, the servers were very rude about it. Otherwise, the food was good! Shrimp in the ceviche does come very raw/grey, thankfully it was a to go order so I added more lemon and let it cook at home. The flavor/mix is savory and does not lack any flavor! I don't think the squirt preparado has any alcohol & the miche is a MUST. Lastly, the location is nice but ambiance could be friendlier/warmer. Would come back for the food if I can get past the vibes here.

Amazing fish tacos! Crispy on the outside, soft and moist on the inside. The sauce has a nice kick to it. Some of the best horchata I've had. They serve it in a big frosty mug. Great friendly service! Highly recommend! read more

This place used to be good. Ordered for pick-up, gentlemen said 25mins. Got there 30 minutes later and had to wait another 15mins to get my order, so 45mins from the phone call. All 5 fish tacos were made on cold tortillas, straight out of the bag. They crumbled in my hands. Not to mention the cold fish. I've watched too many business fail in your exact location over the years, don't be the next. read more

Food was ok service was mediocre. Waitress was not welcoming and had an attitude for no reason. Had their mango margarita tasted like a mango smoothie was better off ordering an agua fresca. Would probably come back for takeout not to sit down. read more

I was at this restaurant with one of my sons and his girlfriend this afternoon 1/7/2024 Sunday about 3:00 pm. The waitress asked me if everything was ok . We had a little situation with our order. She told us that the owner was there and she was going to share this information with him. The owner came out And apologized in person and explained to us what could had happened....... He worked it up for us .. It was not what we expected. I was very impressed. This is not the 1st time I come to this restaurant and I always bring new people with us. This will definitely not be the last time. Don't forget to try the cevitostitos. Thank you. read more

Hello Gerald, once again I do apologize for the issue with your order…
My visit was a pleasant experience. The atmosphere was welcoming, and we were promptly greeted and seated upon arrival. While the dishes were prepared adequately, they offered a taste of the expected flavors without much flair. The service was prompt and courteous. The menu features a decent selection of Mexican seafood dishes, including birria. For drinks, they offer agua fresca like horchata and jamaica, as well as a decent selection of bottled beer and other Mexican sodas. The this small restaurant has indoor seating only with front parking available. The bathroom was clean. read more

Ive been wanting to try this place for years and I finally did last week. I was greeting by this lady which was the waitress and cashier she helped me pick out which items are more popular since I wasn't too hungry i wanted something small but this was juicy and flavorful ! To be honest I never know how to feel about mango on ceviche but i think the small portion was perfect. The shrimp empanadas cheese melted right in my mouth & the green salsa that goes along with it was amazing! Ill be back either tomorrow or Friday! Thank you again for the overall great experience 10/10 recommendations ! read more

I rarely write reviews on business's because of the lack of hospitality. The food was amazing! This business made me feel welcome! The young lady that served me was very kind. The gentleman behind the register was working in unison with her. He heard her ask what I was drinking and he was on it. I was in a hurry. They served me in no time. Thank you to the people that were there and helped me out! I'll definitely go back. read more

Another great local find for my working Saturdays! I love shrimp ceviche and am always looking for a place that has good ceviche. The place is pretty small and quaint and the service was good. I added lime, mayo, and Tapatio to my shrimp ceviche and it was great. The shrimp diablo was okay, not sure I'll order that again but I'm definitely coming back for more shrimp ceviche. Next time I also would like to try the aguachile! read more
