    Tacos and Tostadas
    Vivian P.

    WHAT I GOT: - Tacos de Pulpo Zarandeados (3) - Octopus Tacos ($24.99) - 8/10* - Tacos Sinaloenses (3) - Shrimp Tacos ($21.99) - 6/10 - Tostada de Ceviche de Camaron - Shrimp Ceviche Tostada ($12.99) - 8/10* - Tostada Mixta - Mixed Tostada ($23.99) - 7/10 - 32 oz Modelo ($13.99) *a must/popular dish I had been wanting to try a mariscos spot and passed by this spot while driving so decided to give it a try! We really enjoyed the octopus tacos and the shrimp ceviche tostada - they give you extra tostadas and everything pairs perfectly with their draft beers! Veronica and the manager were very welcoming and accommodating considering it was our first time there! LOCATION: - Has a few tables inside and an outdoor patio with plenty of seating - really enjoyed the outdoor seating when it's good weather out! PARKING: - They have a small lot in the back with about 6 spots but plenty of street parking WAIT: -About a 20 min wait for a table for 3 on a Friday around 5 pm NOTES/DEALS: - They have social hour from 3-6 pm with discounts on drinks and draft beer! - Their paper menu is in Spanish but if you scan the QR code on the table or go on their website, they have it in Spanish + English!

    It had been a couple years since I had eaten at Mariscos Choix. Let me tell you the food is so much better than I remember. We ordered aguachile in salsa negra 10/10 definitely going back for that. The ceviche mitotero 8/10 it was good but for my liking I wish it had more callo de hacha. The last thing we ordered was the Arqui Roll it was fire 10/10. Service was amazing I don't recall the ladies name but she was so helpful in suggesting certain plates. With this hot weather I love the option of sitting outside. I enjoyed the mist and fans was refreshing.

    Came here to have lunch with my friends and it's an ok place. We order fish taco and shrimp it was good. They have a lot of seafood on the menu but the menu in Spanish if your want English you would have to scan a QR on the condiments tray. Service was good the waitress we had she went over on the menu and what was good and what she would recommend. It's very small inside, when you walk in it's a long booth goes against the wall to the other side and they got chairs on the other end, probably 6 tables. It's a small place.

    Lobster roll

    Omg! The pulpo tacos were soooo good! I'm coming back just for those. We also had the lobster sushi roll and that was great too! Margarita's service was welcoming and attentive! Overall such a great experience

    Coctel De Camarón Con Pulpo
    Yvette Z.

    Do not order by delivery, I ordered a Cóctel de camarón and pulpo and I received half the portion in a cup with half tomato juice and 2 shrimps and pulpo. For $29.99 what a disappointment. Maybe dine in only

    Ceviche Mitotero
    Kandy D.

    Passing by and decided to stop by and we are glad we did. Margarita was our server; she was amazing, she went over the menu with us and recommended their most popular plates. Ceviche mitotero, tacos sinaloense, tacos gobernador, and the pulpo tacos were all so good. Israel the manager checked in to make sure everything was going good. We are pleased with the good and customer service. The place was nice and clean. We will be back.

    Tacos de Pulpo sarandiado is legit! Defiantly a must when you come to Choix! Customer service was excellent!

    I finally got to try Mariscos Choix after much hype from my coworkers, and it was absolutely as good as everyone said it was. Customer service and food were excellent. I couldn't ask for a better dinner experience. I arrived at the restaurant around 7pm on a Wednesday. The restaurant had its own small private lot, and I was lucky enough to snag the last parking spot at the time. The restaurant was much smaller than I expected since it looked so much bigger from the outside. That said, it looked like they also had an outdoor patio with additional seats. I had the pleasure of interacting with two servers that evening. The gentleman, whose name escapes me now, was the nicest guy! He was so personable and such a delight to talk to. Liliana ended up being my primary server, and she was just as friendly and helpful. I felt like they both went above and beyond to ensure I was enjoying my meal and overall experience. Mariscos Choix' menu was huge, which was a bit overwhelming for me. They had lots of items to choose from e.g. ceviches, tacos, sushi, etc. Lili helped me through the menu, and per her recommendation I got the aguachile mixto with rojo sauce. This aguachile was insanely delicious. It was flavorful, and the spice packed a punch. The avocado was an add-on, but for only $2.99 they gave me the entire avocado. What a steal! What made the aguachile a mix was in the two ways the shrimp was prepared - with water and with lime. Some of the shrimp had a firmer texture of being cooked all the way through while the ones made with lime were on the rawer side. I knew by the picture that this plate was going to be big, but I thought to myself, "It's mainly shrimp. I can eat this all no problem." I was stuffed 3/4's of the way through and couldn't finish my meal. Last but not least, I loved their tostadas. Extra crunchy and had a rough masa texture that I liked. I cannot wait to come back and try the rest of their menu!

    Molcajete
    Luyani F.

    Wow this place was great. Seafood so fresh! And the molcajete was amazing. Margarita was a great server and very attentive

    Chilaquiles Choix C/Carne
    ChaCha L.

    We Came for chilaquiles and steak fajitas. Food was delicious and our server George, was amazing! He took care of us and made sure our drinks were always full. Enjoyed the music and the vibe! Will definitely keep coming back.

    Aguachile Verdes
    Chase K.

    The aguachile was better than Mexico City, WOW. Israel and Margarita were so welcoming and friendly; I am going to come back and try everything on the menu! Very clean and beautiful ambiance.

    Rice
    Marisol S.

    Service was great! And the food did not disappoint! Recommend shrimp tacos for appetizers! And the oysters shots! For dessert you definitely have to try their Calabasas pudding! Will be definitely returning soon!

We originally were hoping for 7 or 7:30, but based on how busy and popular this place is I can see why they said no. Come early and get seated right away and there's still ample parking in their parking lot. By the time we left at 7:30p, the lot was packed and people circling around hoping to snag a spot from folks leaving. The restaurant is pretty large and has about 3 rooms with different size tables and booths. No matter the size of your party, there's a table that will accommodate. The staff were very nice and attentive and FAST! We had our food out probably 15 min after we put in our order! Now...on to the food. We ordered one of the set menus for our party of 7 and it was spot on! As you can see in the pictures we had all the "classics". Our set meal could easily be enjoyed by at least 10 people. We had so many leftovers! The food was all well prepared and sufficiently seasoned. Portions of each dish was plentiful and everyone will be able to get enough to satisfy. My favorite items: lobster (duh!), kung pao chicken, pork chops, and shaking beef. The seafood soup is a great starter, and don't forget to add a little vinegar and pepper! Great restaurant in the SGV. This location is much bigger than their Rowland Heights restaurant, but the food is exactly the same. This is a great alternative to the popular Newport Seafood, so don't sleep on this place!

Came at 530 pm on a tuesday, and there wasen't anyone here yet. Afterwards it filled up quickly!! The main thing I dont like about this place is they dont have the prices on what your ordering. Which I'll get too at the end. Like any other Chinese restaurant, their menu is super extensive. I love how they have a little bit of everything. And its very well organized too. We ordered the following: 1. Crab and fish maw soup- this soup was amazing. It was just the right temp. Got me sweating. Can easily feed 12 people. Great amount of maw. The consistency is just right. Tasted so good!! 2. Small lobster special- on a bed of noodles. It was about 5 lbs. Cooked well. Could do without. Basically flavors. And it was expensive!! About $30 a lb. So this one dish cost basically the same amount as all the other dishes. Which was just too much. If I knew it was that much I would definitely not have ordered it. 3. Walnut shrimp- not the best walnut shrimp I've had. But it was ok. 4. Garlic shrimp- this shrimp dish was ok. Too many bell peppers and onions. It was just ok. 5. Mongolian beef- flavors were not that great. Very tender though. Could've been better. 6. Sea trout- this was amazing!! I love the sauce. Fish was so soft and tender. The heat, the spice, the sweetness. Some of that sauce in white rice was just perfection. It was really really good. Best dish of what we ordered. 7. Kung pao chicken- this was a really good dish. Crispy bits of chicken. But so soft and tender inside. I love the sauce that it was in. It was by far one of the highlights of the meal. It was good food. Price for everything (except the lobster) was pretty good. Food tasted amazing for the most part. Typical Chinese customer service. Pay at the front. Massively large portions. Solid authentic Chinese food.
