    Scallops
    William Z.

    My wife and I came here for our anniversary because we were craving some authentic seafood, and Mariscos Choix absolutely delivered. The reviews were spot on. Every dish that hit our table was excellent and packed with flavor. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with great music and an amazing atmosphere that made the whole experience even more enjoyable. And don't even get me started on the drinks. The passion fruit infused cocktail was amazing and honestly one of the best drinks I've had in a while. A big shoutout to our server Samantha. She was attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcomed from the moment we sat down. The service was just as good as the food, which made our anniversary dinner that much better. Some of our favorite dishes were the scallops and the prepared oysters. Both were fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. If you're anywhere near Downey and enjoy seafood, do yourself a favor and check this place out. We'll definitely be coming back.

    Tostada de Ceviche de Camaron.
    Emmalyn C.

    First time spur of the moment decision. On our way home from the Citadel Outlets. Craving seafood and found this place on Yelp. Had great reviews. Very busy and people waiting to be seated. Sat in the bar area and served immediately. Our server was amazing. Great service and conversation. Very welcoming and informative. Made some great recommendations. They welcome you with tostadas and salsa. I knew it was going to be a great night. Tostadas were so crunchy and salsa was delicious. Ambiance is fun and festive. Music was good. The manager came to our table to thank us for coming and gave us a card for a free appetizer on our next visit. OMG!!! What a great manager! That's the way to get customers to return and feel so special. The best people work here. Food and service AMAZING!!!

    Nemo Drink
    Vanessa G.

    We visited Mariscos Choix for my mom's birthday. The wait was about 30 minutes on a Sunday afternoon. The food quality was excellent, and everything we ordered was delicious. I tried the Nemo drink--it was super cute and well presented, but it had a lot of ice and not quite enough cocktail for my taste. Overall, the ambiance and service were great, and the staff made our experience enjoyable. As a first-time visitor, I also received a free aguachile coupon to use on a future visit, which was a nice touch. I'll definitely be back!

    Nice restaurant, Friendly Staff, Delicious food!!! The place has a cool vibe, with beach resort style furniture. Came for lunch with a coworker, and we both enjoyed our selections. We had the Tostada Rebelde and the Shrimp tacos. The Nemo drink is a little pricey for what you get but still taste good. Our server Alondra was kind and attentive and the manager Sid was friendly as well and checked on us. Will definitely be back to try out more of the options on the menu.

    Friends brought me here for an early birthday celebration. First timer & was beyond excited to try out the aguachiles verdes. Big fan of the decor & live band, really helped set the vibe. Service was on the nose, never without tostadas. Started with some delicious shrimp empanadas. Also enjoyed some refreshing cocktails on top of Mexican candy shots. Mezcal drinks are definitely the move, try the Huatulco! Overall, would definitely come back to try out more of the menu.

    Ambience is extremely amazing service really making me feel like family Andres is top tier and made our experience very wonderful 10/10 recommend drinks strong as well !

    In the mood for light seafood dinner, thankfully, we got here just in time before it got crazy busy. Seafood tostadas and strawberry margarita were perfect and hit the spot! This is one of our favorite seafood restaurants, which we will always come back to, because the customer service and food are consistent and on point, every time we come!

    Chips and salsa
    Tara F.

    This location does not have parking so look for parking on the street or what other customers did such as myself was parking in the parking lot right next to it at the plaza where Del taco is. When we arrived, the host told us it was gonna be a 30 minute wait at around 7:30 PM on Friday night so she gave us the option to sit at the bar so we did. Right off the bat they serve you chips and salsa, but the chips are tostadas and the salsa was pretty spicy. For an appetizer, we got an order of guacamole which came out to $16.99, which is extremely ridiculous for the price didn't know till afterwards since it didn't have a price on the menu. For the entrée we ordered the Molcajete which also didn't come with a price on the menu, which came out to about to $55 which came with a nice big bone marrow, Asada cooked rare even though we asked for medium, pieces of chicken, three pieces of shrimp wrapped in bacon, nopales, block of cheese, green onions, half an avocado. It also included a side of rice and beans in one order of tortillas we wanted another order of tortillas which came out to an additional $2.99 Overall, the food was flavorful, but the prices were some of these things are ridiculous specifically for the guacamole and the up charge for extra tortillas. The ambiance is nice and modern. They have mostly outdoor seating which looked pretty cozy. Our server was great too and the other staff that attended to us were great as well. If you wanna come somewhere with cool vibes this is the place for you but honestly, I've been to better hole in the walls that offer the same items for fair prices. I would come back to try their other seafood options

    Tacos Sinaloenses (3)
    Omar P.

    Mariscos Choix was a good experience overall. The food was flavorful, and just about everything we tried hit the spot. We started with the Aguachile, which had a great balance of lemon and spice, very refreshing and well seasoned. I also ordered the Tacos Sinaloenses, which were simple but good. My favorite taco was the Taco de Mar y Tierra, which really stood out in flavor. The restaurant is pretty big with music playing, giving it a lively vibe. The host and waitstaff were very friendly and welcoming. Parking can be a bit tough, if you can't find street parking nearby, you'll need to park across the street in the shopping center near Del Taco. Overall, a solid spot and a fun atmosphere.

    Aguachiles

    Veronica was amazing! Answered questions and gave recommendations. The food also tasted great. Ambiance was top too. Live music.

    Empanadas
    Jessica G.

    Came here for dinner on a Saturday night and lucked out with live music. We were a group of five and expected a long wait, but were seated in about 30 minutes. There's a bar area where you can grab a drink while you wait, which helps. We started with the chicharrones de pescado, crispy and a 10/10 with the dipping sauce. The shrimp empanadas were okay. I ordered the tacos de pulpo zarandeados and loved them, the avocado really brought everything together. My cousin had the camarones al mojo de ajo with rice and beans and said they had a nice spicy kick. Modern space, fun crowd, and people singing along to the live music, it was definitely a vibe. The seating area by the live music is very tight but the atmosphere made up for it. Overall the service was great.

    Aguachile

    I do not recommend this restaurant…read more Two stars for good customer service. When we came in, we were greeted quite quickly, and brought to our table. Inside was very clean. It is very spacious and well spaced. Separation of regular diners and bar drinking is nice, to keep a family friendly environment separate from the potentially more rowdy crowd. We asked what was highly recommended, and of course, it was what we came for, as others do too for their first and most likely, only visit there. I do not recommend this restaurant. We ordered their special of the day, which was a ceviche. It was made with raw shrimp, not cooked in any way, like straight from the freezer, thawed, chopped, and put into a bowl with the other fresh diced stuff. Usually, the marinating time the shrimp sits in the ceviche "cooks" it, not this one, gray shrimp. We read a review that said the octopus was life-changing, and we love a well-cooked octopus. If the octopus was just cooked, or just heated, or just slightly on the grill for a second, it would have been super delicious and life-changing, however, it was finished-cooked so poorly. My guess is that someone thinks that grill marks make it good, wrong, they burnt it. The flavor is burnt! It becomes bitter and burnt! Well, guess what, we ordered the fish.... And guess what.. it is the same!!! BURNT! Not grilled, BURNT, ON PURPOSE!?! Like I said, skip it, I do not recommend it. And, it was not cheap neither. It looked so upscale, so awesome, smelled good, then just burnt! Don't believe all the hype. This is definitely a hype restaurant, or somewhere to get drunk and not be able to comprehend what you are digesting.
