I enjoyed this place very much! My friend recommended me this place and we were not disappointed. We went during a weekday when it's not so loud. I believe they have live music on the weekends. Great for large parties who love seafood. The portions were great and filling. The service was also great but keep in mind, we went in the middle of a Thursday when there was hardly anyone there. More than likely I will return here because the food was impactful in all the right places. read more

The superchelada was so disappointing, chips were old salsa had no flavor, definitely not going agaim

Ambiance at this location is very loud! lol. They usually blair banda music or have an actual banda. So if that doesn't bother you than it's worth stepping into this place. The ceviche here is always fresh. I generally order two them and have with some chips. There Michelada's here are hands down one the best in phx. I highly recommend getting one. read more

La Botana - Ceviche de Camaron - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I came here with couple friends after work, ( recommended by my coworker who lives nearby). It was a hike for me because I work and live in north Scottsdale, but it was worth it! The food were definitely one of the most authentic Mexican food that I ever have in a long time. I wish this restaurant is closer to my house, so I can come here often. Service was good and the ambiance was good. They have live music on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. My only negative about this place was that the sounds system was way too loud. I will definitely comeback next time on different nights or for lunch when there is no live music LOL Gracias! read more

Waitress took a huge order from out party and forgot to deliver the most simplest food to 2 of our friends that where sitting with us and the waitress had the nerve to say if everything was ok when she say the 2 people without food in front of them. Then she proceeded to ask oh did you want me to put in the food so they can make when more than half already ate all of their food and were ready to leave. Then she had the nerve to get mad like if we were the one who messed up on the missed orders and was upset that we didn't give her a tip. Bad service gets no tip. read more

Food is always good service is always there I really can't complain about anything and the live music is just the cherry on top great place!!!!! read more

They served us watered down tequila all night and then the final shot was literally straight water thinking we wouldn't notice? I cannot believe they tried to do that. Then tried to make it right by serving us more watered down tequila!!! Saying they ice their alcohol before pouring it?? I've never heard of that. And the shot wasn't even cold. So they had added water to all their bottles to make more money off a bottle. Shitty service all night long we had to flag the waitress down she never came to check on us. The food was bomb but everything else was trash. I will NEVER come here again! 0 stars!!! read more

What happened to this place? It used to be so good... Service sucked-our server was at least nicer than the bartender, food was too salty and the portions have totally gone down. The restaurant looks like it needs to be redone- the seats on the booths are about to rip open. Once the food was brought to us, we weren't even asked if we needed anything else... NEVER COMING BACK... save your money , it wasn't worth the $70 we spent here read more

Amazing food. Friendly staff. Terrible neighborhood. I highly recommend if you're a gringo like me, and want a uniquely Mexican cultural and culinary experience. For best results, go with an open mind and an empty stomach. Minus one star for the heavily armed guard at the door. read more

This was a great experience at a seafood restaurant with live music! The food was great! We did point out , however, that everything we ordered was pretty much the same thing served in a different manner and one different ingredient. Haha We enjoyed the experience although I believe it to be a bit overpriced. The waitress was pleasant and prompt, though she disappeared for a bit at the end while we waited for more drinks and finished our food. read more

Good food, horrible service. Disappointed in the service. The waitress was off doing her own thing, walking around looking busy but was not. I had to flag her down to take our drink order after sitting for 15 minutes, then flagged her down again to take our food order. The food was good, just your typical mariscos place. Nothing out of the ordinary. read more

La Botana excites all of my senses. Upon arrival, you will be greeted by one of the several beautiful female waitresses. I remember the first time walking in looking around at all the smiling faces, colorful food and drinks and feeling extra happy just being there. Doesn't matter the day of the week you go, you will either hear the juke box playing Spanish music or a one man or group singing and playing music with instruments. The environment is one to enjoy with fresh seafood and cold drinks. The shrimp ceviche tostadas are a must. It's a perfect blend of freshness, crunch and tangy flavor. The tacos are always warm with cheese and the salsas are home made with a hint of spice. I noticed the bottle of mayo and hoisin sauce and it seemed peculiar at the time, until I scoured my tostada with it. I love mayo so it was a no brainer to try. Whoa! I had been missing out! I have yet to try a dish I haven't liked. The shrimp cocktail, fish tacos and oysters are a few of my favorites also. You must not leave without having a michelada. What in the world do they use as their mix?! It's one of the tastiest I've ever had. Mix it with your favorite beer and you'll thank me later. I visit Arizona because my best friend of twenty something years moved away here. She always knows that La Botana is a must for me. Try it, you'll like it. Great service, amazing seafood and chill vibes! read more

Came on a Sunday mind afternoon hoping to miss the rush. The place was packed; all tables were taken. Thankfully, we were able to be seated really fast. So we ordered their cóctel de camarón and camarones al mojo de ajo. The coctel had good flavor and it was pretty tasty the camarones al mojo on the other side were flavorless. They didn't even have any garlic flavor. The table next to us also complained about their oysters not being fresh. The service was good and pretty fast. read more

After going to La Botana with his boss two months ago, my husband has been begging me to go. We finally met up with my cousins for lunch today and grubbed hard on mariscos! We got both red and green aguachiles (green was my fave), oysters with ceviche, campechana, fish tacos (admittedly not the best...but the rest makes up for it), and chicharron de pescado (amazing!) Definitely give this place a try! read more

Good service. (Even though they seemed short in staff (servers) for a busy night) Clean! Great food! I recommend:: Botana tacos (breaded shrimp cheese and steak ) Real in-house made lemonade. Really good! Tostada torre de botana ( seafood mix tostada :: scallop, cooked shrimp , aguachile, octopus , fish ceviche , avocado onion tomato cucumber ) was really good and good portion (I had to share) ! Prices are reasonable. Music was very loud read more

Girls are rude and expect a huge tip. Bill was $95 I gave her $100 and started to pull out the rest of the money for her tip and she slammed it on my table thinking I was only going to leave her $5. This is my 4th time here and I have had an issue with the place every time. Tried to be optimistic but never again. read more

Came on a Monday night and everything was perfect. Wasn't super busy and the food came fast. My waitress was very friendly as well. SI got the aguachile rojo and my boyfriend got a cocktail de camarón y pulpo. I usually always end up adding all the sauces from the table to add more flavor but let you tell you, this time i didn't need to add anything since the flavor was so delicious. There was no live band playing because I'm sure they only play on the weekends. If you don't like loud music then don't come to any mariscos restaurant as you expect that Friday, Saturday and Sunday. #jack lol read more

Really wanted to check this place out after a spring training game with all the great reviews however we arrived on a Sunday around 5pm and people were getting padded down at the door before entering. I didn't feel comfortable taking my 5 year old there. Not a great atmosphere for kids. read more

Great food , loud atmosphere food was so good kinda pricey but all seafood is pricey. Definitely worth a try!

Cesar and the rest of the crew were amazing- great service!! Loved the bean dip, guacamole, and shrimp tacos. Great vibes on the patio and good happy hour deals. 2 for 1 margaritas. Go here! read more

Visited la Botana Sunday and I can not say good enough things about their costumer service! From the time we arrived to the time we left the entire staff was friendly and attentive. For appetizers we had the oyster shots (deliciously prepared with clamato, lime, tajin , black pepper) and Toritos with shrimp (banana peppers stuffed with shrimp and Philadelphia cheese wrapped in bacon) For entree I had the Camarones Culichi. Everything was so good! I recommend this place to anyone who wants good food and good service! read more

First time coming here with the family and it was worth the drive from Chandler! The mariscos were super fresh and the service was quick. The owner, I believe, came and asked how everything was and the server was really interested in making sure we were happy. We got the Botana torre! It was amazing! And I got the michelada with negra modelo, it was super good with tajin on the rim! Definitely will be back when we visit from California again! read more

I just got served the the best "aguachile y callo" that I've had in a while. You can taste that the shrimp and scallops they use are super fresh. The sauce they used was perfect no need to add anything else to it. It's served with red onion, tomato, avocado and cucumber slices. They got a good variety of Mexican sodas, ice cold beer and tequilas. They have a small menu, but I'm willing to bet that everything on the menu is good. I will be back soon. Maybe even tomorrow, so I can try more of the food. read more

Really bad customer service. We were told by a waitress that they had a table ready for us. When we got to the table another waitress told us that, the table was already taken... By ppl whom were already seated. I understand it was busy, but just her attitude sucked. If you're not in it for the customer service don't work in that industry. El servicio al cliente es horrendo. Cuando llegamos una mesera nos dijo q ya tenía la mesa lista para nosotros. En cuanto llegamos a la mesa otra mesera nos dijo q la mesa ya estaba apartada para alguien más wue de echo ya estaban sentados. Entiendo que está ocupado pero la actitud de la mesera fue inaceptable. Si lo del servicio al cliente no es lo tuyo, no trabajes en esa industria. read more
