I ordered the miche guama and it didn't disappoint. The shrimp and cucumbers were fresh, and the chamoy was delicious. We had the queso findido, which was prepared with chorizo and mushrooms, and the cheese pill didn't disappoint. The filete a mojo de ajo was smothered in a delicious garlic sauce. The fish was so tender, and the rice was cooked to perfection. The food came out really fast. Service was decent. We were not checked on after we ordered and she forgot one of our drinks. read more

The ceviche was amazing! So fresh and a large portion. I'm only giving this place a 4 because the lime margarita was undrinkable. It taste like bad sour mix so I ordered water. The music is loud, so be ready for it. read more

We came here assuming it was the same food as the 151 location.....and it's not even close. The service and the food were bad. This time we will jump right into the negatives. We ordered the fish chicharron. Not even close to the same dish served at the other location. It made us so upset, that it's not even worth talking about anymore. My son LOVES the paella at the other location. He picked the shrimp out and refused to eat the rest. We all tried it and agreed, it lacked flavor, and it didn't even feel like it was cooked the same. I ordered the caldo 7 mares. This one is mixed. It was FULL of seafood...but ZERO of the rich seafood broth you expect. For the price, the broth should at least taste...well, no joke but it should taste like fish. Even salt didn't help. The misses ordered the fried fish and shrimp. That was the best dish, and not by much. We had a michelada, and it wasn't bad, but again didn't hold a candle to the other location. The one sauce, the chipotle mayo type, was absolutely delicious. The green one not so much. Even that sauce is completely different than the 151 location. The chips were stale... Our waitress visited us once, and we WERE the only family dining there. No refills for us I guess! We were perplexed how the same family of restaurants can be so different!!! Visit the 151 location, trust me! read more

Heard so many good things about this place, only to be terribly disappointed. Nice size establishment & there were a number of people. Seated promptly in a booth & provided menus. What we couldn't help notice all the flies. Not one or two but like at least 10. We should have left, lesson learned. Noticed other customers were having the same problem as well. We did place appetizers. Guacamole lacked seasoning, however the portion was big. The queso was good. Was hard to enjoy while waving flies off our food. Meh definitely would not return. Seemed as though no effort in trying to manage the fly problem. Placed a drink order, pina Colada & Margarita in a 12 oz plastic cup @ 9 dollars each. Skip this place. read more

We wanted to eat some seafood and grab a drink glad this place hit the spot. They have a full bar we ordered some margaritas, Mexican candy shots, and beer the shots were not the best I'd stick with something simple. The music was good, I like the decorations, and the place seemed clean. As for the food id definitely go back for the ceviche im usually picky because I don't think some places use enough lime juice but this had just the right amount. I did prefer to eat the chips instead of the tostada that was given seemed like the tostadas were store bought or stale. We also had a fried shrimp plate the shrimp was a good size it came with a house made tarter sauce I would give 7/10. Overall good place I was surprised we were the only customers! read more

Small place but service was excellent and food was delicious. They start with a bowl of tostadas with like 6 different sauces 2 homemade. It was dinner time and full and we still were able to get our food promptly. They have a full bar liquor and beer. Prices were reasonable for the food that is served here. There is plenty of parking. Will look forward to another visit. read more

Not being a fan of seafood that dates someone that is you end up making some concessions, so I found this place on yelp with decent ratings and hoped it had more than just seafood. Of course she grew up in Seabrook, so I was worried about getting her seafood in San Antonio. Alas she insisted thus seafood it is. I will say this place is lively! Its not quiet and romantic , but rather loud and rowdy. So if your looking for a fun time it's a great fit! I found the place fun and it was for the most part ok. I wouldn't say I was overly impressed, but it was still a good time. I had the surf and turf fajitas with a margarita and she had the Enchiladas Verde with shrimp. All in all decent food in loud and fun atmosphere. read more

So the family and I had decided to stop by and see what the fuss was about and I got to say I'm kicking myself in the ass for not coming here sooner. I ordered a dish that had octopus and and snapper, and shrimp in it that had cheese and a good sauce on it and the prep on it was done very nicely nothing was over cooked and it all tasted great, and the portion was generous. But the reasons I'm not give it five stars are my own. I can tell you this I will be going back as I want to try something off that menu that isn't smothered in cheese hint hint, not that cheese is bad cheese is good I love cheese but I digress. I recommend you give this place a try, oh and the drinks are always cold with drink specials as well. Ps I'll get more pics next time. read more

La Perla Del Pacifico - Self explanatory - Seafood Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Well, mark la perla off the list of places to try. Tried it, fish was fresh.... But meh. I ordered for delivery. The taco - it was a taco. Nothing special. Nothing to make a trip over there for. There's a taco shop on every street corner around here and at least half of them are probably better. Mixed seafood cocktail - seafood was fresh but the cocktail sauce was probably the sweetest I've ever had. Not a fan of sweets for a meal. Kids would love it as a "salsa" maybe The ceviche tostada - at least a half dozen fresh tostada shells packed separately and none in with the ceviche, which was nice. All the ceviche juice leaked out into the bag... Literally. All. Of. It!!! They put that mayo sauce on it though after eating around it I dumped the juice from the bag into the container, nope that ain't it. Cut up a whole jalapeño and put it in there, and squeezed a whole lime and some lemon into it... barley edible, but I was starving. Had to stop because it was making me feel like I was gonna puke. Mayo does that to me. Would I ever order from there again? Most likely not for delivery, maybe in person if someone invited me along though and I'd be sure to tell them "NO F###### MAYO!" and I'd for sure order something else. read more

This place is a solid go to when craving ceviche. It always reminds me of vacations in Puerto Vallarta. The food is refreshing and tasty.

Had my weekly self care Sunday event at this site, there was 3 of us and the service was excellent. We ordered the following 3 dishes and mine was the butterflied shrimp dish with rice and sliced avocado, so amazing. read more

The Coctel de Camaron was excellent, the service and ambiance was good. Will definitely be back.

Delicious Latin American seafood! We had a friend recommend this place and we are SO glad she did! We've loved everything that we've tried so far. This is also a place that we take our out of towners to for their large portions and their unique options. Now onto the food: Highly recommend any of their molcajetes! I've tried all three, but my favorite has to be the molcajete de chamuco for their chunks of melted cheese. Beware this one ONLY comes with different varieties of shrimps. The molcajete levanta muertos would be my second pick. This one is a bit spicy and has a combination of different types of sea foods. The shrimp empanadas were a different take on your average breaded ones that you'd typically find in restaurants. This one has a flaky, crispy crust with loads of cheese and chunks of shrimp inside. The sauce that accompanied the empanadas was also mayo based instead of chimichurri. If you had to choose two dishes to taste, I'd highly recommend the ceviche verde de pescado! It's incredibly refreshing and so good. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Typical seafood restaurant with a variety of dishes. The dishes are flavorful and the portions are big. The wait staff is friendly and efficient. This was our second time going to this restaurant. The first time they gave us some little extras like soup shooters, but I'm not sure if they don't do that anymore. While waiting for your food, you can snack on their complimentary tostadas and sauce. They bring out two sauces, the green was hotter than the red one. They also have a rack of any bottled sauce available at HEB. We ordered the empanadas as an appetizer without realizing they were going to be pretty big. They were fresh out of the fryer, but you could tell they weren't the frozen type. For the main dishes, we shared tacos and the filet relleno. Our favorite taco was the capeado de Camaron. I think what made the taco was the slaw with cotija. We also ordered beer and an alcoholic mangonada. The mangonada was ok. Probably too sweet for me, but I should have expected it. We went on a Friday night and I am not sure if this is customary, but a child came In selling fruit cups table to table to raise money for his dad. Then a while later a man came in and sang for tips. Once the singer came in, it became noisy, but we were still able to carry a conversation. If you don't mind those little extras during dinner, then it won't be a problem. read more

La Perla Del Pacifico - 4 shots for 20 Dollars Mango tequila and fireball. - Seafood Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Love, love LOVE this place ! Out of the never-ending mix of boring Tex-Mex places all over SA, comes a really great Mexican seafood restaurant! The cool thing about La Perla is it focuses on dishes from the Mexican coastal areas cities, which don't seem to get the same attention as other regions, food-wise. Its unique to say the least. I do not remember the complicated name of my dish, but it was baked fish covered with a tomato sauce with melted cheese, shrimp and octopus. Yeah it was as great as it sounds. read more

This is for the 151 location. Do not confuse this with the Culebra location. Reviews here are mixed with the Culebra location. Tried this place for the first time, and it did not disappoint! Not only seafood but also burgers and Mexican food. There are plenty of beverages to choose from both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Also, lunch specials! The place is small but clean and relaxing. Staff friendly and hardly waited 10 minutes for food. read more

This was the best Mexican food I had here in San Antonio. I am from California so tex-mex isn't much my thing. I got two different tacos and they were both amazing. One had shrimp and the other had grilled fish. I would recommend anyone in this area of San Antonio to try it. Service and food is great. read more

La Perla Del Pacifico - Tacos and Marisco molcajete - Seafood Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

We hadn't been back to La Perla del Pacifico in a couple of years, but we were really craving their Levanta Muerte molcajetes. I can't remember them being so disappointing. The shrimp in the molcajete were both head and shell on, but there were also shrimp that were peeled. Both were overcooked, yet mushy at the same time. The fish in the dish was perfectly cooked, but the measly amount of crab legs and pulpo (octopus) in the molcajete were truly disappointing. They were nowhere near the $28 apiece we paid for them. My kiddos ordered the jalapeños wrapped in bacon and the shrimp tacos. My son complained about how the jalapeños were whole instead of cut in half, so it made for a very spicy dish. Their tostadas and chips they serve before your meal were stale. So stale, we asked for a fresh batch only to received another stale batch. It's disappointing to remember something as so amazing only to be let down when you go back to experience it again. read more

Omg this place is AMAZING!!!! I always drive by this place and never was intrigued to stop. I was running on a time crunch one day and decided to stop and eat real quick. The place was dead and I was a little iffy. My sister agreed to share a plate with me just in case. We totally loved the food! The food was soooo good and prices are pretty reasonable. I can't wait to go back with the rest of my family. Place was clean and the waitresses were very nice. I highly recommend this place. read more

The food was great! Enchiladas were good, Fish soup was very good. Service was good. Plenty of TVs to enjoy soccer game! Good atmosphere.

Fresh seafood! Ordered a couple fish tacos and two different ceviche dishes. The food was amazing. The fish tacos are absolutely delicious and the tostadas de ceviche were fresh and tasty. My wife and I had a great meal for under $30.(no alcoholic beverages) I eat a lot of seafood and try to visit different spots every time I eat it. The reviews were spot on. This place is awesome and at a really great price point. If you're feeling like seafood but don't want to do the normal sushi route, this is a great alternative. Another great San Antonio joint read more

So I was disappointed in this restaurant I have been wanting to try it because the pics and the reviews were good but I ordered through grub hub and delivery fee was 3.99 and it says the first order is free!! but the problem was when it go here the food was spilt all in the bag, and the seafood Pallela did not have any crab legs, and did not look what is was supposed to, and the shrimp ceviche tostada was okay. So we called and the lady kenya said "they should be there I walked the bag out myself" I said I can send you a picture, she said let me make sure hold on!!(like what do you need to make sure about) anyway she says they ran out and shipment did not come in. So we could come back and get some but remind you we ordered grubhub and work at a hospital!! So she said we could go by anytime to get it, we asked if we can give her our name and she said no the girls will know,it happens a lot°_° umm okay!! Bottom line I will not go back! read more

2 Time on this recommendation. Service was terrible! Dirty, table, we request to clean the table Celina didn't like it so she made a gesture, boss boy came over with a dirty smelly rag and smear crumbs all over getting the table just wet and gross. Food was good however I requested a plate and ketchup and I guess texting was more important. Not coming back. read more

This place has the best shrimp empanadas around. The "chips and dip" is not your traditional style chips, they consist of tostadas and a couple bottle sauces. Ceviche is the best! Margarita was really tasty as well. Great place that I would go back to! Great tasting food and the service was good too! read more

The menu looked appetizing so we decided to give it a shot for our Sunday lunch. We ordered a variety of items including the coconut shrimp, two different enchilada dishes and two different individual tacos. A few minutes prior to receiving the order, the restaurant called and said they didn't put one of our enchilada dishes in the bag. They asked if I could come pick it up. No, I don't think so. Why couldn't they contact the driver to have it delivered since I paid the delivery fee. They told me I could call Grubhub for a refund. I was immediately annoyed because they put the onus on me to make up for their mistake. The food itself was decent and not any complaints. The tacos were flavorful and the enchiladas that we received were also pretty good. We may try this restaurant again and hope they are more careful to check to orders before they go out for delivery. read more

I was starting to like the restaurant until I had an issue with my kid's order I called to address it and they showed no interest in Fixing the issue and sent me back to solve the problem with DoorDash. But in my opinion, if someone orders chicken flautas is for a reason and it shouldn't be in contact with seafood that has pieces of shrimp in it. The restaurant staff said that they fried everything in the same oil. Very dangerous thing to do especially knowing that some people have allergies. read more

Wanted to try this place out. I went in and they said they had a twenty minute wait which was fine. My family was sat down and began to wait after we had ordered. We waited about 30 minutes before we had to ask a server when our food would be done. Server told us it would be a couple more minutes. About 15 minutes later our server brought us our ceviche that we had seen left sitting out for 10-15 minutes. Verde ceviche tasted so bland that we decided to cancel the rest of our order as it STILL was not ready. 0/10 would not recommend. read more

Spot on traditional Mexican food. You might pull up to a run down building and second guess your decision to come to the restaurant; do not. Go with confidence, while the inside of the restaurant was slightly run down it is clean, the servers where attentive and the food is excellent. This was my first visit, but it will be a new favorite when I am looking for traditional Mexican Food. read more

Love it here! Wait, LOVE it here!!! It's not our first time but we really love it here. You could really tell the seafood freshness by the way the food has been cooked. The Mojarra Frita alone is crispy and not salty at all. Most seafood place would season their fried fish with a ton of salt or other seafood seasoning to mask the fishy taste and smell, but here, they don't need to do it. Not sure why it was not salted but I liked it that way. It makes perfect sense, all I tasted was the freshness of the fish, it's fried perfectly crispy and still very yummy. We even ordered the tea to go. One more really appetizing fish we ordered is Camarones Cucarachas. The tamarind-based sauce complemented the fresh shrimp perfectly. We started with Chicharon de Atun which was extremely perfectly lightly breaded and fried to divine deliciousness. We really can't wait to go back next time. The seafood Paella is another winner and also the equally mouth-watering Enchilladas Verdes. And oh, there was this other appetizer that I forgot the name of served on a sizzling plate made with melted Mexican cheese and pork sausage. The price may seem on the higher side but it's worth the trip, the freshness and the taste plus the service justifies it. read more
