    Never recomended this restaurant bad manners from all the staff and don't speak English anybody. And the quality food is terrible never comeback

    Kylena P.

    Came for dinner on a Tuesday night, wasn't busy at all. Pluses are the waitress was friendly and checked in on us regularly. Drinks were great. I expected the mariscos to be better. A bit disappointed on the freshness of the ceviche and even the pan fried fish. We were looking for that lime-fresh flavor, these dishes had a slightly fishy taste. Probably wouldn't return to this location.

    Food is great. They have live music on weekends nights. Sometimes it can get crowded thus service might be a little bit slow, but as far a how food tastes and looks, this place is great. We have tried the pineapple with seafood, shrimp zarandeado, fried mojarra, devil shrimp, aguachile, and everything is always fresh, tasty and very good portions.

    Ceviche

    This place is legit! If you want authentic Mexican Mariscos this is the place. I tried the shrimp ceviche. I loved it!

    Ceviche de Pescado

    Every time we come in we get the same thing but today was pretty disappointing it was mostly onion and carrots gonna take a break from this place, I was really craving some ceviche

    Molcajete Cora
    Cecilio S.

    Great food at a great price. We had the Molcajete Cora and it was more than enough for 2 people. They also give plenty of tostadas and a complimentary small ceviche.

    Spicy green sauce taste soooo good!

We visited around 5:00 PM on a Sunday and were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately for a party of two without a reservation. The restaurant is huge, and despite being very busy, the service was efficient. We were seated in one of the back dining rooms and greeted with complimentary chips and salsa, both of which were delicious. The atmosphere was fantastic--packed with World Cup fans, with what felt like everyone wearing a soccer jersey. As fellow futebol fans, we loved the energy. Being from California, we're fortunate to have access to some excellent Mexican food, so we were a little hesitant about trying Tex-Mex. I ordered the chicken fajitas with flour tortillas and a passion fruit margarita. The chicken had a smoky flavor and a sauce that gave the dish a distinctly Texas-style twist. The flour tortillas were outstanding, and the refried beans and rice were just as enjoyable. The passion fruit margarita was also a standout and something I'd definitely order again. Overall, this was a great dining experience and a place I'd recommend for the atmosphere alone. The restaurant appears well-equipped to accommodate large groups, making it a great option for gatherings. Next time, I'd love to return with a bigger group and take advantage of one of their margarita pitchers!

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!

I recommend getting it with red and green sauce on the side and a side of tortillas ro make your own tacos with the eggs, salsa and refried beans. just wow! And that tamale needs its own menu. That tamale was amazing. I would get several orders of that soft white tamale by itself to go. And the service was a 10/10.

We were simply told to "sit on the bench and wait" with no effort made to make us feel welcome or comfortable while waiting for our table. When making the reservation, we specifically requested either a quiet table or seating at the bar. Despite this, we were seated at a small table between two particularly noisy groups. On one side was a family with three young children playing a loud game involving frequent shouting and slapping on the table. There was intermittent drumming which the parents were oblivious to. On the other side was a large group facing us engaged in very loud ongoing conversation. The result was an atmosphere that made it difficult to enjoy the meal. Service was also inconsistent. Our server offered chips to accompany the Tiradito but she never brought them. Overall, the evening was disappointing. Between the unwelcoming reception from the dour hostess, noisy seating arrangement and lapses in service, the experience was far from enjoyable. Could not wait to leave.
