Browising Yelp I came across this restaurant. I was in the mood for a shrimp coctel, since we've been having such warm weather. Seafood cravings kick in! We were seated right away & our order was taken within seconds for drinks. I ordered the $55 dollar plate, serving us aguachiles, cooked shrimp shrimp ceviche, tuna, callo de hacha. My goodness the black sauce for the aguachiles is spicy but has the right amount of citrus to balance it out. It's mouth watering,savory! You'll think about it, until the next time you visit. Thats how good it is! It's a bit warm inside the restaurant for my liking. Maybe I'll do take out next visit. read more

I decided to try this place out today since it's very close to my work. The service was not great; the lady that greeted me was not friendly; did not feel welcome. The food had good flavor, except for the shrimp (two shrimp ceviche tostadas) was completely raw. I wasted $35 on this since I only ate the tomatoes and onions. read more

The waitress did not wipe down the table we ate at. It had crumbs all over. My kid ordered a crevice tostada and in the middle of the ceviche was a French fry,, I keep wondering in my head how it got there and I really want to give them the benefit of the doubt but the more I think about it the more it just makes no sense and I'm so grossed out bc I've heard of restaurants that recycle food to resell. Idk im just so grossed out. I can't understand how there was a French fry in the middle of the ceviche. In my head I pictured maybe the frying pan next to the ceviche but that makes no sense considering ceviche needs to stay cold. We found it as we were packaging the left overs to go. We did not buy French fries!! read more

This place is awesome! So picky about my seafood but this place definitely checked all the boxes when it comes to fresh quality seafood. Great service, great prices and more importantly great taste! The black aguachile was my favorite! Nice heat !!! I can see parking being a little crazy on super busy days but other than that if in the Santa Fe Springs area I highly recommend. Oh and for whatever this is worth the female wait staff were all very cute and good looking girls! read more

Parking can be difficult during the busy hours (although they have plenty of parking space). Service could be a little better where servers don't come to check in on you so often but u can see they're busy. Food is awesome! We love the Monchis tacos. They serve it to you open (looking like a tostada) but I think it's because they actually fill it with enough carne asada and shrimp! Love love love them! Hubby and I come here just for those! He enjoyed those more than the tacos gobernador! The monchis mixed mariscos plate is delish too! A mixture of seafood and different ways of shrimp. What I love is it's very lemony!!! I usually always have to ask for more limes at mariscos restaurants but not here! It's the bomb!! Try it you won't be disappointed! Prices are comparable to other mariscos but this is legit! Will cont to return! read more

Fantastic food, lightning-fast service, and friendly team! My only complaint is the furniture; new, updated tables and chairs would elevate the whole atmosphere. Worth a visit for the food alone! read more

Great food. Great service. This place is fire. I had the michelada and it was perfect for the weather. I also got the taco monchis and dang it was super tasty. Finished with the tres ceviche and man left feeling like a King!! I will definitely be coming back. Looking forward to it. read more

Food was excellent. Always a packed lot and busy inside so have never had the chance to dine in. I couldn't wait any longer so I ordered out and that was a great move. The wait is over and I can definitely say I will be back. The mixed ceviche plate I had was phenomenal with their black sauce. It was spicy and packed full of flavor. Plenty of seafood and perfect amount of veggies. It took us 4 different servings to finish the trio plater. Give them a shot, I want these guys around forever. read more

Amazing experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The restaurant itself was spotless, with a great ambience that made the whole meal even more enjoyable. Our waiter, Fernanda, was truly a 10/10. She was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. The rest of the staff was also fantastic, welcoming, professional, and clearly a great team. We'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great mariscos and top-tier service. read more

Great place, delicious food. Must try. We usually go to the food truck in Paramount but came across their brick and mortar restaurant. The restaurant is small and really busy but service is good. The tacos gobernador were sooo good, I ordered the fried ones! Everything we ordered tasted delish and were hearty portions. We had a large family party of 8 and everything was made within a reasonable amount of time Ceviche rojo, cocteles, fish tacos,. Agua Fresca Drinks, Cold Beer, whatever you like in your staple mariscos restaurant they have here. The only thing I can say is the weather was Hot so the restaurant was a little warm. But I'm sure they will take care of the AC soon. read more

I originally visited the restaurant with the intention of trying the Tuna, but unfortunately, they were out of it that day. I ended up ordering something else, and thankfully, it did not disappoint. The food was good overall, and the service was fine. The restaurant is located in a small shopping center with plenty of parking, which is a plus. A couple of weeks later, I visited their lunch truck location and finally got to try the botana with Tuna. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype. At $50, I found the serving size underwhelming, and the Tuna didn't look or taste fresh especially compared to how it's presented on their social media. I also requested no pulpo and was offered the option to replace the pulpo with another item, which I agreed to but it didn't seem like that change was actually made. I did enjoy the sauce on my 1st so I will consider visiting again and trying other menu options. read more

Super good!! I recommend the baja shrimp tacos, aguachiles rojos & ceviche. Service was attentive and friendly despite it being so busy. Restaurant was clean and had many seating options (booths, tables, and at the bar). Only thing that was difficult is parking. read more

This one's worth the hype. I arrived on a Sunday afternoon to a parking lot that was quickly filling up. To avoid a wait, I sat at the bar and ordered a drink within seconds. I paired my Modelo Negra with the Monchis Plate, and shared it with my girlfriend, which we both couldn't have finished alone. With plenty of tostadas and crackers provided, the meal was perfect. My favorite part of the Monchis Plate, however, was the aguachiles negros. If and when I'm not sharing a meal, I'll definitely be ordering the aguachiles negros all for myself. The restaurant itself was bustling with workers coming in and out of the kitchen, but at no point did I feel neglected or ignored. I'll definitely be back when the craving returns. read more

Our first time here and everything was AMAZING!!! We got the Monchis Plate Butana and everything was seasoned perfectly. It came with aguachile, cooked shrimp, ceviche and we subbed the scallops for the octopus. The tables are set with tostadas as soon as you walk in and the salsa negra is the way to go. Also don't sleep on the creamy orange sauce at the table! Tiffany was amazing as our server. We will surely be back :) read more

Great service. Food is so fresh and taste so good! Great prices! Nice spot. Will definitely be coming back !

Unfortunately they got our order wrong. We had 2 orders of tostada de ceviche de camarón, no spice. Both were spicy as hell. So much so that we could barely eat it. We got one order of tostada cruda mixta camarón , no spice and it was 100% tostada de ceviche de camarón & also spicy af. When my daughter & I picked the order up, the about 7 females working the dining room were rude. Didn't acknowledge us whatsoever after standing there for several minutes. I finally had to approach someone myself and she made it obvious we were bugging her. Absolutely No one was friendly but that could be because we weren't men because we could see that their demeanor with males was different And this is the second time we've noticed that. We've only been here twice and the first time we dined in and the same thing. The waitress was not very courteous, and we noticed the whole male female thing, but the food was so good that we tried it again only to experience the same thing minus the good food. I am very upset because our order was almost $70 for them just to mess it up and make it to where we couldn't even eat it. Such a waste of my money. I won't be back again, and I'll make sure to tell my friends of what we experienced. I rarely ever leave negative reviews on here, only when the situation calls for it. This called for it. read more

Tried this Mariscos spot for the first time. A little sketchy from the outside and located right next to a strip club. Inside, the decor is plain but clean. Waitresses are very nice and helpful but be prepared for music playing a little loud. Ordered the botana trifecta and you choose the type of sauce, verde, roja or negra. They recommended Negra without mentioning there is an additional cost of $3 for that one. They provide all the tostadas or crackers you want and only sell canned sodas and beer. The seafood tasted fresh but the Negra sauce was very salty. Despite all that, I'll be back for a tostada or two but I'll choose a different sauce. read more

My friend took me here for lunch. I had to come back and bring my whole family. We love seafood. This place is amazing. Great food, huge portions come hungry and get ready to take leftovers home if you love seafood just like we do this place is for you. The aguas frescas come in a water bottle make sure you ask for a cup of ice on the side other wise you will just get the bottle of water & it gets hot pretty fast. I order the monchis plate with black salsa omg! It was so spicy but it was sooo good. My hubby order the shrimp cocktail it was huge with lots of shrimp in it, the fish taco was great. This is a great sea food place the prices are reasonable & the service is good. The only reason I took out a star was because when you arrived to the place, you don't know whether to sit down or wait to be seated. There's so many people at the front entrance, but nobody to attend to you. I had to go walk over to a waitress who was cleaning a table and ask her if I could sit down, or I have to wait to be seated. She told me she will be right there so she can sign me in. I went back to sit down, but people just kept coming in, making the front very crowded. There was pick up order, Uber eats, phone orders there was just so many people at the front it's overwhelming just my thought. Maybe you should have the pick up order's Uber eats and everybody else that it's not dining in outside? other than that this place is great. I highly recommend it I would definitely come back. read more

The ceviche de pescado with salsa negra was delicious!!! The baja fish tacos had such a good flavor. The ladies were super nice and food was served fast. There was a Lunch rush but that's a good sign because it means people like their food. They could choose a better Horchata drink though. I didn't really like the bottled one. Other than that everything was really good. read more

food was great, the service from the hostess was disappointing. She was rude and dismissive, making the initial experience unpleasant. Additionally, the wait time was inconsistent. I understand that wait times can vary, but what's the point of a texting notification if it doesn't reflect the actual timing? It only adds to the frustration. The owner should seriously reconsider who represents their business at the front because first impressions matter. Thankfully, the food made up for the poor service, but I'm not sure if I'd return given the unwelcoming attitude at the door. food was great, the service from the hostess was disappointing.

Food is great, some of the best mariscos I've had. However, I went with my girlfriend and got ignored by all the servers.
