We went to the pinnacle national park for some sight seeing and hikes. We left before the sunrise and were back in town hungry and looking for foods. We came an across a cute little downtown and with plenty of places to eat. There were so many resturant to choose from but my husband was more interest in the seafood resturant. The resturant was a little crowded before the large group occupying tables left. But we made our way to a table and sat. The server came by with limited English and luckily my husband spoke a little Spanish so that made it easier. We order a few tacos and once of the seafood empanadas dish. I would say everything was delicious and the one dish that was my favorite was the empanadas. There was a creaming cheese in it and made it taste really good. Would love to come back here if I am back visiting the park. read more

Food was delicious! Tostada, fish tacos, all top notch! Pair it with a beer or two and life is good.

Small, clean, brightly lit place with two big screens showing boxing. Loud, but not too loud Mexican music added to the atmosphere. Ysa had the fried tilapia, I had the octopus ranchero style and we split a mixed seafood tostada. The tostada came last and we barely ate half of it and took the rest back to our hotel. Everything was well prepared and presented and was delicious. Would definitely eat here again if we pass through here another time. read more

Very good options, we were in hunt for Baja style fish tacos. The tacos were filled extender deep fried fish, camarón empanada as a treat! Combo mix fajita sizzling good. So many places have mild tasting salsas ,So If you like hot salsa try the red thick one it's as good as mine. Friendly service w a smile. Booths and tables available inside w music playing, a little loud for my taste, tgey lowered it and changed the music which made it more enjoyable visit. read more

Mariscos El Camaron - Caldo de Camaron - Seafood Near Me - King City, California

Food was served fast. The caldo de Camaron con pulp tasted a little off. It was passable but not the best. But their ceviche and shrimp tacos de gobernador were superb! The ambiance was good with many things playing on different televisions. The service was also very good. Price was okay too 2 people we ate with a $50 tab. read more

We tried the ceviche de camaron tostada, Agua chile verde tostada, taco de governador and siete mares soup. The food was good. My favorites were the Agua chile tostada and the taco de governador. The service was good as well. The food was brought out pretty fast. Everything looked appetizing and tasted well. read more

The food was very fresh! I actually am very pleased with the entire experience. The music was blaring and they did turn it down. The boxing fight was on the flat screen. They seem to serve large size beers there. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys ceviche. We had oysters on the half shell with octopus and shrimps and very fresh vegetables. Delightful. The place started filling up after we arrived. People bring their children and there is take out as well. King city is an unsuspected jewel in a small city in the middle of a lot of farming. read more

The music was super loud. I had to ask to turn the volume down. The food was good. Free chips and salsa (too spicy for me) is always nice. Quite filling. Had food to go. read more

Amazing menu with amazing variety of seafood offerings. But alas, the seafood was not fresh! For example, rather than having a crisp & crunchy bite, the shrimp were soft & wimpy, and the jugo [cocktail juice] was also lacking in flavor. Maybe it's because King City ain't that close to the sea, where as the Mexican State of Nayarit borders the ocean. Unfortunately, there's nothing worse for a so-called 'seafood restaurant' than to present anything less than SPECTACULARLY FRESH fish. Also prices were on the high side, and wait times for service were unacceptably long. read more

If you are looking for authentic character, this is the place. The food was wonderful! And the staff was so friendly! It is not a quiet place so don't go there for conversation but for a little, lovely adventure! read more

This is the baddest experience I've ever had. The menu mentioned shrimp tacos for 3.50 and fish tacos for 3.00. Not true. Was charged 4.50 for shrimp and 4.99 for fish. Beer was 3.75. I ordered 5 tacos and a beer. Payed 30.00USD. And all I got was weak ass tacos. First time here and never, ever coming back to this place. Extremely disappointed. Was overpriced and not worth it. Keep moving to find better tacos. read more

The best mariscos in south Monterey county. Ceviche is my favorite Is a must to stop and eat at this restaurant 5 stars read more

I ordered a fish plate with garlic (pescado con ajo). It came with a salad and rice. The fish, looked like tilapia, was well cooked, but tiny. It looked like the kind you get out of a 3 pound bag from Walmart. This plate was about $18. Very pricey. Music was very loud, looks like it caters to local worker crowd, beer drinkers. Would I come back? Probably not. read more

The best Mexican food I've had in a while. The food is authentic and great tasting the service was very fast also considering that there was only 1 server and the place was half ful read more

If you love shrimp, (every which way), this is a place for you. There is other seafood if shrimp isn't your thing. I had the shrimp empanadas and my husband had bacon wrapped shrimp that came with the best rice & beans we've ever had. read more

Not a bad local authentic Mexican eatery, but if you don't speak Spanish and you have food allergies, you should choose another place. The waitress was very nice, however, communicating special dietary needs in English was impossible. My husband has Celiac and we settled for switching our plates so he ate mine because the fish tacos he ordered appeared to have battered and fried fish pieces. I hope the tacos el pastor he wound up eating instead didn't have gluten or he's going to be violently ill in 2 hours. Not really their fault. Descriptions on the menu would have been helpful. Also, there are no shades on the window so it was uncomfortably hot and the music was too loud to have a conversation with the person next to me. But the food was good despite our dietary communication issues. read more

Returned on a hot King city day. Tostada mixta and pulpo hit the spot. Will return more frequently after their redemption

If you want delicious authentic Mexican seafood. This place is a must. Don't be scared if your the only light skinned or dark skinned person in here. They treat you right no matter what or who you are. Pictures on the menu tell you what you are ordering. Decent portions, reasonably priced, best of all is the flavor. Music was a little too loud, but it adds to the scene. I recommend the tostada mixta. Tons of toppings, a slew of seafood tops this behemoth. Ceviche tostada was a bit smaller, but still delicious. Give this place a shot, I left pleasantly surprised, and full. read more

Great family restaurant. We stopped in today on our way to the Bay Area. We always stop in King city but wanted to explore the downtown away from all the fast food chains. My kids loved this place. They have all kinds of tacos for 3$. My kids had the chicken, shrimp, and beef tacos. They were perfect size for them. However the real specialty of the house were the seafood tostadas. We tried the octopus and shrimp which were both only 5$. Everything we tried was great, the bill was 40$ for a family of 4, and we walked away feeling much better than if we had hit a chain restaurant. read more

We might give them another try, probably not. Had dinner with my wife to try them out. The menus are in Spanish, so the waitress had to translate. The TV was on to a cartoon network in Spanish and so loud that it was hard to talk across the table, but the waitress seemed to enjoy it. We had shrimp cocktails, which were OK, we have had better at restaurants in King City. One other thing, the green salsa that came with the chips was so hot that it could glow in the dark.The good thing the restaurant was nicely decorated. read more
