Moises was an amazing server and the agua chiles (negros) and tacos de pulpo were great.

We came to Mariscos Choix with a group of 8, and we had an amazing time! Our waitress, Lupita, was fantastic and so friendly, attentive, and fun. She made the experience even better. The food was outstanding. The pulpo zarandeado tacos were absolutely delicious, the tostada mixta was incredible, and the Baja tacos were amazing. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The restaurant itself is cute, airy, and has a great atmosphere with fun vibes throughout. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! read more

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. read more

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!!! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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 read more

This visit was on Fathers Day and even though they had a long wait time it was well worth the wait. They have a waiting area inside in the back so that you can have drinks while you wait with a large big screen. Order your drinks at the bar no waitress to take your order. All around friendly helpful service willingness to help. Atmosphere makes you feel like your part of the family. Food is delicious goes with out saying. Shrimp cocktail, Shrimp Aguachilles Verdes, Shirmp Empanizadas, New York Steak tacos, Mango Margarita, Paloma. The entire family loved this place you could see the food coma in there faces. This actually happened my Lil Brother n'law tried the Shrimp Aguachiiles Verdes and his eyes rolled back with that first taste. Seeing his reaction solidified my thoughts as well the Aguachilles are AMAZING!!! To the whole staff and the live Mariachi playing Thank you for an Amazing first time experience. Will definitely return with my friends and family. read more

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. read more

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. read more

A great birthday celebration I had the fried fish I loved it. My friend had the great idea of asking for gloves! That really made my meal so pleasant nothing worse than fingering a fish. I'll be doing that every time we eat fish now my friends loved the octopus tacos. The fajitas were delicious. There was like eight of us and we were able to all share one order of the churros we had a great time. The service was amazing. Five stars #ValleyDowneyCrewGoVentures. read more

Finally made it out to this place for a late lunch. Wanting a cold and refreshing meal, mostly ceviche and agua chile type food. No wait for an inside table , multiple outdoor tables but it was still really hot despite fans and open air space. Quick service by waitress, she made sure to ask if it was our first time too; manager came to check on our experience at the end of the meal and made sure to invite us back with a coupon for a complementary agua chile next time. Tried a variety of food: Taco de Marlin and taco mar y tierra (grilled beef and shrimps) - both delicious Agua chile negro is a huge serving of raw peeled and split shrimp over slice cucumbers in a dark marinade that seems soy sauce or Worcestershire based. Very delicious and fresh. I got a camaron ceviche tostada: mixed raw shrimp and cooked shrimp plus lots of onions, crunchy cucumbers in a citrus mix. Complementary whole crisp corn tortillas and salsa, They have a huge size for lemonades and other agua frescas. Live music on evenings. read more

Came in for a late dinner with my friend Ana. She ordered the fajitas mixtas and I ordered the 7 mares. We shared an order of the queso empanadas. The 7 mares was just OK. I don't know what kind of fish they use but it was probably marlin. Not the 7 mares I am used to. Seemed kind of skimpy. The fajitas were asked for medium well and got them medium rare. Empanadas were ok this time around. Nothing special. It was busy for a Friday night. That was expected. The live music was going at what seemed like a privada out back. The service was ok this time. Hoping for a better experience next time. Parking is available on the street people also park across the way in the del taco parking lot read more

Tried this place out on a Sunday night after seeing all of the reviews on yelp. The ambience was very loud as they had live Banda music, so I couldn't hear conversation with my friend. Our servers name was Andre, he was very friendly and chatty and checked on us a few times and always made sure our water cup was full. We got a Paloma and a lime margarita, the Paloma came out warm after waiting 20 minutes for it. The lime margarita was fake tasting. So I definitely don't recommend the alcoholic beverages here. We ordered two shrimp and steak tacos, and the all seafood tostada. Food was very good. The bill was $83 for two drinks and two entrées. Definitely plan to spend money if you come here. The food was the reason for the four star review because the alcohol was not good. read more

Nice place, we sat in the front patio, the music wasn't so loud, we actually could have a conversation and the windows were kinda open to get the breeze in. The food was good, although it came in different times, maybe because we had a big group. my fried fish was great. Andre our server was so nice and came by quite often to make sure we were ok.

My first time here. This place was recommended by my bro who has been wanting to try it out. This place did not disappoint. The food is delicious! The drinks are delicious! Fish tacos were excellent. Ceviche is tasty. Shrimp appetizer was full of flavor. I get the feeling that you can order whatever you want and not go wrong with the flavor and quality of the seafood. The service was great! Very welcoming and friendly! Shout out to Rosalinda for making our first time experience great! read more

Was in the area and was craving tacos. Ambience: 5/5 really nice inside - they have like a porch vibe with salsa/cumbia music playing. Band will start playing around 4ishpm, didn't stay for that though since we finished eating way before then. This was on a Saturday afternoon. Service: 5/5 Laura H. our server was awesome, they also brought over water in a bowl for our dog, yes they're dog friendly - definitely helps! For all you dog lovers out there. Food: 2/5, overpriced! Fish Tacos: 2/5 barely any fish tasted good though. Ceviche: 3/5 average Shrimp Empanadas: 4/5 really good, but lacking shrimp IMO and a little greasy, my sister didn't think so though, was for my . Parking 3/5 - I don't think they have their own parking at least I didn't see one. There's street parking and a parking lot on the side of the restaurant, took a risk and parked there - no ticket and car was still there when we got out, so I guess doable? Overall, will not be back because prices are way too high for what we ate IMO. Bill was almost $150 including tip for 3 people, this cost is like going to West Hollywood. We had tacos and ceviche, and one had steak fajitas, still...way too much. If you don't mind this and just came for the vibe then I guess you'll be fine. read more

We arrived at 730p on a Monday night, at first glance it's absolutely beautifully decorated with great photo ops. I was eager to try the food hoping it wasn't just overrated food-- spoiler alert-- it wasn't! We walked directly to the bar for quick seating and sat at a small table, perfect for 2. We were greeted by Daniel, the lead bartender, who provided phenomenal service all evening. We stayed till closing, okay maybe a bit past closing, but the food was amazing and the drinks were delicious. I wish I would have taken more pictures of the food and other drinks but I didn't. We will absolutely be back. Thank you Daniel! Go try Mariscos Choix! read more

Mariscos Choix - Mariposa drink - Seafood Near Me - Downey, California

I was super excited to finally try this place. Wait time was not too bad and took us about 15 mins to be seated for a party of 4 on a Sunday afternoon. Waitress came over pretty quickly and asked us if we wanted drinks. We had a 3 year old with us so we asked what type of kid drinks did they have? Water , soda , orange juice and lemonade. I responded lemonade for the 3 year old. She brought out a huge lemonade I would say at least 24 ounces and I was charged 9.99 for a kid drink. Completely ridiculous. Since it was our first time we relied on the waitress food and drink suggestions. We got the mitotero ceviche and it was just ok. We ordered aguachile and that was quite good. We also had the Cocktail De camaron and that was terrible. It was so plain and had no flavor with very little shrimp. I felt myself having to flag the waitress down for crackers, mayo and ketchup. They only had tostadas at the table and didn't offer any additional options. Tostadas were very basic and not good. Food was over priced. I was not impressed and think this place is way over priced for a par seafood experience. And I honestly felt uncomfortable because they had so much security. Literally in front of our table. I'm giving it a 3 stars but I doubt I would ever come back. There is plenty of other seafood places at a much reasonable price with better quality food. read more

This place was busy and lively. There was live music and sitting on the outside covered patio made you think you were somewhere else with all the greenery & lighting fixtures. I ordered a Mi Pasíon as my cocktail which had mezcal, pineapple, passionfruit & lime. It was a bright & fruity drink. For food we ordered a bunch of things to share at the table- cheese empanadas, ceviche mitotero, & tacos sinaloenses. The cheese empanadas were crispy, fried, extra cheesy, and piping hot in the middle. The ceviche mitotero was refreshing and I loved the mixture of seafood in it. The tacos sinaloenses come in 3's & come with lots of shrimp in a crispy taco shell. For dessert we ordered the flan de elote- I liked the corn flavor and the texture was a bit thicker than a regular flan. Parking- street parking read more

Upon entering here for our 1st visit ,we were seated right away. They had water mist going on outside, so we sat inside, due to humid weather Waitress took our drink order (lemonade & michelada) Michelada & 2 waters received & right after was our half dozen oysters We right away were bummed that they had no LANGOSTINOS available. (No reason given) Still waiting on my lemonade. Our main dishes came, tostada de camaron cocido 7/10 aguachile mix (green) half cooked /half raw shrimp 8/10 & at this time my husband let the server know we are missing my lemonade. The tostada shells are too hard! Despite the lemonade matter, $9.99 for a lemonade is insane! No refills! Take the ice out & it's half a cup of water, limes & sugar se pasan! There's better mariscos out there & this is more for the ambiance. read more
