SUPER GOOD FISH CEVICHE + Pina Colada!! Definitely felt like I was on the beach in Mexico. Service was also really well, shoutout to Jocelyn & Nancy who were very attentive and moving as fast as they could be on a busy Friday. Those ladies made the meal even more enjoyable!!! ¡CEVICHE DE PESCADO SÚPER BUENO, y tambien la Piña Colada! Me sentí como si estuviera en una playa de México. El servicio fue excelente, un gran saludo especial a Jocelyn y Nancy, que fueron muy atentas y trabajaron con la mayor rapidez posible. ¡Gracias a ellas la comida fue aún más agradable! :) read more

All I can say is it was worth it to wait 30 minutes. Our server, Marisela, was very welcoming and nice. Everything we needed was delivered. She was very happy and on point! My family and I enjoyed their delicious food. We had the surf and turf molcajete- sizzling hot. Carne asada, shrimp, queso fundido, nopales, handmade tortillas. All their salsa were very tasty. It SUPER DELICIOUS! We also had 7 mares soup. Grandson had carne asada fries, Bomb.com The atmosphere had a good, happy vibe. I highly recommend it. Traducido : Lo único que puedo decir es que valió la pena esperar 30 minutos. Nuestra mesera, Marisela, fue muy acogedora y amable. Nos trajo todo lo que necesitábamos. ¡Se mostró muy alegre y atenta en todo momento! Mi familia y yo disfrutamos de su deliciosa comida. Pedimos el molcajete "surf and turf", que llegó chisporroteando de lo caliente que estaba: carne asada, camarones, queso fundido, nopales y tortillas hechas a mano. Todas sus salsas estaban riquísimas. ¡Estaba SÚPER DELICIOSO! También pedimos un caldo de los siete mares. Mi nieto pidió las papas fritas con carne asada; ¡estaban espectaculares! El ambiente tenía una vibra muy buena y alegre. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente. read more

Our first time here! My daughter took me to celebrate my birthday and the food was amazing and the service was great. I'm posting this almost 2 weeks later and my daughter already told me she's been thinking of the camarones and pulpo el jefe- it was delicious. We also ordered el molcajete volcán and it was also very tasty. As we waited for our food- we saw many other dishes we want to try next time. Can't wait to come back. read more

Absolutely amazing dining experience! The hostess greeted and seated us with a smile. Ambiance just feels good. You feel like yes this is going to be good as soon as you walk in. Drinks and food are on a different level! Everything is served with passion. The drinks as well as the food look like they are prepared with care. Service is very good and attentive. Portion size, didn't see many walking out without left overs. Chicken Molé de licious!! Mixto with shrimp pulpo and scallops dr licious!! Drinks, yes!!! Refreshing and really good. My new favorite place. See you again! read more

Service was horrible they kept giving me the one second finger every time I needed anything. It's way to loud and I will not be coming back

If I could leave zero stars I would! Horrible experience!!! I just walked out!!! I didn't even acknowledge us when we walked in (keep in mind they weren't busy) Menu prices and portions are ridiculous!! Save your money! We waited and waited no one came to ask for our drink order nonetheless drop off chips or check on us!!! We got tired of waiting! Waitresses have no customer service!!! It's all hype save your time go elsewhere trust me!!! read more

Food and service was fantastic! The spicy shrimp (camarones ala Diabla) and Caldo de camaron were delicious! As were the Camarones Altamirano and estilo cucaracha. We happened to stop by on karaoke night and the vibes were awesome! Great food, good drinks and our waitress Marisela was the best! read more

Mi esposo vio este restaurante en tik tok y fuimos a probarlo, y omg que rico! Probamos el ceviche mixto, pulpo zarandeado, y los camarones ala diabla y déjenme decirles que todo estuvo riquísimo pero los camarones a la diabla fueron mis favoritos. Son los mejores que e probado en todo el Inland Empire. Pero eso no fue todo el servicio fue lo más bonito porque Maricela nuestra mesera iso que toda nuestra experiencia fuera la mejor! Volveremos pronto! 100% recomendado!! read more

First time trying this mariscos spot. We had great service from the moment the hostess took my name down for a party of 11. They sat us within 30 mins which was it bad at at all. The place is not too big for big party's and it was pretty busy which is to be expected on a Sunday afternoon. They had a small live banda also. Nanci was a great waitress! She would come check on us often. My husband and I ordered the cielo, mar y tierra molcajete and the green agua chiles. Both were delicious but the agua chiles were our favorite. Spicy but addicting!! I would definitely come back if I'm craving some mariscos. read more

The restaurant itself is actually pretty cool aesthetically. The atmosphere has a lively vibe and the décor fits the mariscos theme well. Even the restrooms were pretty decent and clean, which is always appreciated. We were also seated fairly quickly, so the first impression walking in was positive. Unfortunately, the experience started slipping once we were seated. Our server was difficult to get a hold of most of the time and wasn't very attentive. We waited quite a bit just trying to get basic things handled, and when she did come back, some of our orders were wrong. For example, we ordered Long Island iced teas with an extra added shot of 151 rum, but what came back honestly tasted like the weakest cocktail I've ever had. There was barely any alcohol flavor at all, which was the opposite of what we asked for. We also ordered two double shots of tequila, and she brought back single shots instead. The food itself wasn't terrible, but it definitely didn't feel anywhere close to being worth the price. Our bill ended up being over $200, which felt pretty ridiculous for the quality we received. The food wasn't bad enough to deserve a one-star review, but it also wasn't impressive or memorable enough to justify that kind of cost. Overall, the vibe and look of the restaurant are probably the best parts of the experience, but between the inattentive service, incorrect drinks, and food that didn't match the price point, it ended up being pretty disappointing for what we paid. Unfortunately, it's not somewhere we'll be going back to. read more

LOVE Ixtapa. The vibes, flavorful food, good drinks, and hand-made tortillas make this a stand-out spot in Downtown Riverside. Our waitress, Maricela, was attentive and hilarious! I order the red and green aguachiles on repeat. If you can't handle heat, avoid the red ones because they're SPICY. Other things I recommend are the shrimp cocktail, grilled shrimp tacos, ahi tuna, chipotle shrimp enchiladas, and the molcajetes. read more

Service was ok. Food was good. We went in on Thursday at 7pm to celebrate my birthday, and my partner got a michelada during their happy hour. When it came to pay, the lady didn't even show us our receipt. Turns out she charged us regular for the michelada and not their happy hour price. When I told her she said she's look into it, and just avoided us afterwards. On top of that, they don't have pricing for drinks. Makes it feel shady, so they prob charge you what they feel like for a drink. Wouldn't recommend, there's plenty of other marisco spots that are better . read more

I order a tostada to go and it was fire plus they put everything you need with it. I am definitely coming back for sure with my family.

This was my first time trying out this restaurant because we had family visiting from out of town. First off when we took our orders it took the food like 45mins to an hour to come out. My mom's food still had not come out during this time. My Tía had ordered some shrimp soup plate and her shrimp was grey, looked raw. When we tried to ask a question our server was giving us attitude and being rude. She said the soup cooks it, that's the way it is. My Tía's meal was not even hot enough to fully cook it, she said she was just going to cook it herself at home. When my fajitas finally came, they were not even sizzling. My beans were also cold. (I was also not the only one who got fajitas, everyone else's was the same.) I will say the rice was really good which is why I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1. The music was also so loud that you could barely even talk to each other. My sister had tried to ask if they could turn it down a little & once again our server looked annoyed. They did end up turning it down (went back up shortly after) so at least that was nice for a little while. Also during all of this my mom still did not have her food. By the time her food came out, everyone was already done and over it. Her food took an hour and a half + to come out. Hers was the rice and beans plate with the taquitos. There's also not much parking so plan ahead, we got lucky and parked on the street. They were busy but I've never gone to a restaurant before (even while busy) and been ignored and felt like I was bothering them by asking simple questions. Once again I loved the rice but there was nothing else that would make me want to come back here again. read more

Came here for date night with my wife. I had the trio combo taco, enchilada and chile rellano. My wife had the shrimp enchiladas- some of the best Mexican food we enjoyed in Riverside. Margaritas were excellent as well as service and fair prices for 2026. We will be back. read more

Their prices are fair. The place is decent size. Did not wait in line. The service was okay. They attended us promptly but they forgot to give us utensils. Also, there was a group of men in the corner drinking beer and being overly loud. They began to spit on the floor which was pretty nasty. Parking is a bit of a hassle. The drinks were okay, nothing special. The mega cantarito had a good looking presentation, which is one of the few positives of the place. read more

Simplemente espectacular! Desde el momento en que llegamos, el servicio fue de primera. El personal fue muy atento, amable y siempre con una sonrisa, asegurándose de que todo estuviera perfecto. El ambiente es familiar y muy acogedor, ideal tanto para una comida tranquila como para celebrar en grupo. Se nota el esfuerzo en cada detalle, desde la presentación de los platillos hasta la limpieza del lugar. La comida fue una verdadera delicia: los mariscos frescos, con un sazón auténtico que te transporta directo a la costa. Cada platillo que probamos --desde el ceviche hasta los camarones al mojo de ajo-- estaba lleno de sabor y perfectamente preparado. Sin duda, Mariscos Ixtapa Riverside se ha convertido en uno de nuestros lugares favoritos. ¡Altamente recomendado para quienes buscan calidad, sabor y un excelente servicio!

The place is good but for being my first time was not pleasant. I asked for a pescado Sarandeado and although the fish has to have scales this one was on every bite and the fish wasn't fully cooked. Waited for more than an hour for this and walked out right away. The mojarra was so greasy the only good thing was my soda. Not a good experience only one waitress was really nice and friendly. read more
