    Fish taco
    Lauren K.

    This was a nice little find for something different! I'm a lover of seafood so I was pretty excited to try a few things. We stopped in here on our way to the Cinemark movie theatre to eat before our show. It was a Friday evening and they had live music. Loved that's aspect! We were seated immediately by the friendly hostess. I wasn't incredibly hungry so I settled on two tacos. One shrimp and the other fish. The fish taco was fried fish, it was lightly battered and fried perfectly. Not dry at all. I wish they offered a grilled fish taco version though. The shrimp taco was my favorite! Loved the sauce they had on it. Tacos also came with two side sauces that were delicious. Lastly, I had a margarita while I awaited my food. It took a bit for them to make the drink, but it was so good! Definitely had a flavorful homemade flavor. Can't wait to come back!

    It took me a minute to find this restaurant on Yelp. Is it called El Barco? Mariscos El BarCo? It only has a few reviews and this is probably why. This is a casual family-owned Mexican Seafood Restaurant that offers quite a variety of options. The prices are also very reasonable. We started by ordering the Shrimp Empanadas. They were so good. Loved the sauce, it compliments them perfectly. Next I had the Fish Tacos. Also really good. I made the mistake of ordering a side of rice. It was a huge serving and not needed. My only complaint is the service not being consistent. Initially, it was really good, but once we got our food, there wasn't much follow-up. If you've never had Mexican style Seafood, come check it out.

    Please correct the restaurant's name. The correct name is Mariscos El Barco. I ordered two shrimp empanadas and the shrimp fajitas. The fajitas portion was huge. I didn't count but it came with at least 15 shrimp. It also included a side of white rice and a house salad. Everything was delicious! The service was non-stop until everything was served. I would have given them 5 stars if they had continued their great service as I wanted a glass of wine after I started eating, but never had the opportunity to order it. This is a great Mexican food place. Please visit them.

    We went on a Friday for dinner and we're pleasantly surprised and pleased by the live music. The restaurant was clean and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The ceviche was fresh and very tasty. I also ordered a margarita which tasted better than many other places I have ordered for the same price. I would certainly recommend this restaurant.

    My fiancé and I visited this restraunt atleast once a month. The food is always impeccable and very tasty. We very much enjoy the staff and the atmosphere as its family friendly and fun. Anything you order on the menu is always prepared to our 100% satisfaction. We do have food restrictions and they're always accommodating and helpful.

    What? FOUR STARS? No way!…read more Was walking to a lunch spot we had in mind, but ran into this taqueria and thank goodness we did. It was soooo good, so we came here two days in a row for lunch. Service was fast and easy and food is really good. Lots of locals dining, so you know it's really good. Would totally come back again.

    Let's be honest. When I'm looking for an out of town Mexican spot, I look for 2 things: A little…read morebit of dinginess and lots of actual Mexicans eating there. Los Gallos covered those two needs perfectly. Located on the main ave across from Circus Circus. Kinda cool pawn shops too but didn't have time to check them out. Walking in, it def has the authentic dinginess that is usually synonymous with authentic tasting food. Lots of handmade signs and pictures of food on the walls. And also lots of pictures from their hometown. It was a Monday afternoon and there were many local Mexican families eating there which is another great sign. Ordering was pretty easy. After doing me best To order in Spanish I realized the lady working there spoke perfect English. Haha. I ordered a shrimp burrito with everything and 3 street tacos all to go. It took a long time for the food to come out. There was a large party order that they were getting ready so I waited a long time. It was so long that I expected them to offer me a free coffee or soda but they didn't. The food finally came and it was a solid 4. The shrimp burrito was tasty and the shrimp was cooked really well. The tacos were good too. I'll def be back next time I'm in Reno.

The tortillas and chips were so good! I'm so bummed that I live out of town otherwise I would come regularly. We came on a Sunday, it was busy- so we needed to wait for a table, only took about 5 to 10 minutes or so to be seated. The service was prompt once we were sat, the staff have really good teamwork. They have a parking lot so it wasn't difficult to find parking and the interior was spacious and clean considering how busy it was. My man ordered an asada burrito and I got the birria combo. I tried a bite of his burrito and I liked that it wasn't extremely salty like a lot of places we've been to. My birria was extremely flavorful, the rice was perfectly fluffy and the beans were on point- I don't usually finish my beans because I'm not a huge fan, but I finished these beans, that's how good they were. They also gave us complementary chips and salsa. The chips were nice, thick and fresh and the salsa wasn't too spicy so everyone is able to enjoy it. 10/10 on the food! We will definitely be back next time we're in town, hopefully it'll be just as good next time.

    Given that we are from Jalisco we wanted to try out this location and let me tell you…read more... From the first bite, it's clear this place takes tortas ahogadas seriously. The bread arrives with that perfect crusty exterior and airy interior that holds up beautifully once it's "drowned" in the vibrant, slightly spicy tomato-chile sauce. The pork inside is tender and flavorful, and the balance of acidity, heat, and richness feels fresh rather than heavy. It tastes remarkably close to what you'd find in Jalisco, which makes it feel genuinely authentic rather than a watered-down version for tourists. We also got tacos dorados de papa and those were pretty amazing too. The micheladas and chavelas are just as impressive. They're crisp, well-seasoned, and perfectly chilled, with just the right amount of lime, spice, and salt on the rim. They pair incredibly well with the tortas and make the whole meal feel even more special. On top of the food and drinks, the service really elevates the experience. The staff is attentive, friendly, and clearly proud of what they serve, checking in just enough without hovering. Overall, it's a spot that delivers on flavor, authenticity, and hospitality, making it a standout choice for anyone craving great Mexican comfort food. Will definitely be coming back.

    My first time here. I ordered the Chili Rellano a la carte, asking for extra sauce and cheese. I…read morethought I was disappointed when it came because it was so small and the sauce was so thin. But once I tasted it I realized it may be small in size but it is MIGHTY in flavor. Positively delicious. The sauce might be thin but I ended up using a spoon to slurp up every last bit of sauce after the Rellano was finished. So I was NOT at all disappointed in the Rellano. In fact, because I was still hungry I had room for their homemade Flan. I asked for extra sauce if possible. I was very pleased. There are many varieties of flan. I personally prefer a more textured variety that I refer to as Rustic. I would call this variety a very traditional SMOOTH variety. The flavor is wonderful. It was delicious. And NOW I am full and satisfied. This restaurant is at the end of the shopping center. Parking is great. If you find this review helpful please VOTE!

I don't do raw onions, so I ordered grilled onions and jalapeños tatemados and avocado slices on the side... BEST decision. That smoky, charred flavor took the tacos to another level. And the drinks?? Gina the bartender is a tequila guru periottt....She knows exactly what she's doing. The fresh watermelon margarita was my favorite--super refreshing and dangerously good. The coconut lime one surprised me... SO good. They really went above and beyond here. The vibe can be chill and relaxing, but I've also heard they turn it up with a live band (not sure on the schedule, but I'm coming back to catch that). Great food, great drinks, and a spot that hits both vibes. Gina has to be the best bartender ever!

It was a bit overwhelming, but the bartender was so helpful! Which by the way, that pregnant bartender needs a raise!

My fav was the street corn, I got 2 orders! Would recommend for ANY occasion! Will be back there soon with more friends!
