    Ate at this food truck for the furst time 06/19/2025. The shrimp empanadas were excellent. Had an order of shrimp taquitos that hit the spot. The big dish ordered was the shrimp fries, that was my favorite. When coming to the Valley and I need my fix for seafood, Mariscos El Bigoton is my spot.

    Shrimp cocktail / pricey but gr8 taste ... and fish tostadas

    When it comes to seafood I am very skeptical... however; after hearing from friends .. I decided to order and i am DEFINITELY not disappointed

    The spot

    Not the nicest part of the valley, and the parking was cramped in the lot and the streets. But taco trucks at a transmission shop, that is a heck yes for me. I ordered 3 camaron dorado and 1 pescado. Wished for spicier salsa, but everything was good.

    Emapanada in a tortilla and fried. Mushy and not good.

    I ordered two orders of the special-Thursday. 5 fish tacos. The pictures look better. And I also order 5 shrimp tacos for 11 bucks. Biggest disappointment. Y'all fry the empanadas and call them shrimp tacos. Fish tacos are soggy and small. Sauce isn't anything special either. Huge disappointment.

    Fried Fish Tacos ! Amazing

    I went To the Mariscos el Bigoton location on Laurel Canyon and Paxton . It is located right in front of Ritchie Valens Park. Let me tell you that this place is always delicious. Super fresh seafood amazing specials. The staff is super kind. I have tried numerous menu items from the fish tacos to the shrimp tacos, tostadas ! I have been eating at Mariscos el Bigoton for about five years and have followed them every time they relocated. Definitely a must try for delicious seafood in the valley. You will not regret going to this place. They have really cool specials every Tuesday and Thursday on their fish and shrimp tacos. My stomach is growling as I think of them. A plus certainly. The pastelazo is a must Try !! love love love this location definitely five star worthy . Hats off to the chefs and staff they are always consistent, quality, seafood, and personable service.

    Mariscos El Bigotón got variety. Mariscos this mariscos that, they got you covered! My hangry hypoglycemic brain decided to try their shrimp and crab empanadas. I saw an add on instagram 5 for 10 and they looked delicious! I was wrong, 4 for 10, super deep fried with some cheese mayonnaise sauce inside with 2 little shrimps and minimal faux crab. Yea they sucked but my fault. I should have went for a ceviche or fish taco. Maybe next time, MAYBE!

    Tostada el Erick
    Claudia C.

    I heard good things about this place, also some of my friends on Instagram would post to their story about this place. So I finally decided to go and try it out to see what all the hype was all about. My bf and I ordered 2 shrimp cocktails, 1 fish tostada and a 1 tostada el Erick. The cocktails were good, and the fish tostada was okay, but the tostada el Erick was disgusting. We tried eating as much as we could only because it was expensive but we ended up throwing it away along with the fish tostada as well. I can definitely say I will not be going there again. P.s. I don't know what that brown sauce was on my tostada but gross. I've had way better Mariscos.

    Some of our spread...

    So, we finally got to try Mariscos El Bigoton and it was exactly what we wanted and was expecting. We hit up the Arleta location on Osbourne St. We decided to not go too crazy with our ordering since it was just 3 of us and its a bit pricey but its seafood. We went for the crispy shrimp tacos, tostada (that is what I got) and my hubby went with a tower thing of amazingness. The fish was really good and not over done and I need to find out what that brown sauce is because its freaking AHHHMAZING!!

The staff was great. They were friendly and attentive even though they were so busy for a Friday late afternoon. We ordered take out for party of 7. The food items we ordered were 3 Swai Grilled Plates, House Ahi Poke Bowl, Honey Chicken Citrus Bowl, Lobster Roll Plate and Kids Mac and Cheese. Our food was ready within 15-20 minutes, hot freshly cooked and nicely packed. The serving portions were of good amount. It's not in abundance and definitely not lacking. It was more than enough. The Swai Grilled Plate was flavorful and the white fish was not overcooked. We will definitely order this again along with the other food items on our order. The Lobster Roll Plate was tasteful. The Honey Chicken Citrus Bowl was unique in taste. My favorite is the House Ahi Poke Bowl. We can't wait to try other food items on their menu.

Like ma'am I'm not across the street I'm in front of you... It literally felt like she was yelling at me over a SCREEN. Eventually a whole like 20 minutes later my order comes and she asks "what sauce you want"?and I asks "what do you have"? and she goes "RIGHT THERE' like jeez my apologies for not having the sauce menu memorized. Anyways food was underwhelming. Not much flavor to it. Fries were a bit cold. It's not bad but it's also not anything crazy. Overall, I paid to get yelled at, rushed, severed mediocre food.

Because of that great experience, we decided to go back after a long time, this time on a Sunday. When we walked in, we immediately noticed a big difference . There were a lot of empty tables. We ordered shrimp cocktails (cócteles de camarón) and sat down. Unfortunately, this time the food was not good at all. The juice in the shrimp cocktail was extremely salty,so salty that I couldn't eat it. I went back to the counter and explained the issue. The girl helping us was very nice and explained that they cure the shrimp with salt since it's not cooked. She offered to remake it, which they did, and I appreciated the effort. However, even the remake just didn't taste good to me. I like my seafood to taste fresh, with a natural seafood flavor not overly salty or loaded with condiments. This experience made me wonder if something has changed at the restaurant, especially since it was so empty compared to our first visit. The staff was friendly and did try to make it right, which I appreciate, but overall this visit was disappointing. Since it's also out of our way and we only stopped because we happened to be in the area, I don't think we'll be coming back. It's unfortunate because our first experience was so much better. The ambiance was pleasant. They had a couple of TVs playing football, music in the background, and the place was clean but the food just didn't live up to our previous experience.
