A little pricey for Fallbrook but Oh So Good! SO had the octopus tacos and I had the whole tilapia in Garlic sauce. Mine was sincerely Finger-lickin'-good. SO's must have been delicious too since he left nothing to take home. I'm not normally an octopus fan, but a taste of his was delish. Flour tortillas tasted homemade, service was excellent, salsa was mild and tasty, many meal options were authentically Latin American, and parking was good. There were some traditional Taco-stop and American offerings e.g. hamburgers and quesadillas. These must have been options for the kids. The ambiance was family-oriented with sports on the TVs. They aired boxing (my fave), basketball, and a Mexican game show. Whatever. I was too knee-deep in homemade ... everything, to pay attention beyond noticing it was there. I ate my tilapia with my fingers to ensure nothing was left behind. Reminded me of food I had in Ixtapa Zihuatanejo. I had the house red, perfect for the meal, and SO had a craft beer. I brought home the tilapia head. Couldn't finish it and I wasn't about to let a bit of it go to waste! This will be my Fallbrook go-to for a special Latin American meal and I will definitely be checking out the Happy Hour which surprisingly starts at Two. I hope you check out it this family-run business and share your experiences. A real find in Fallbrook! read more

The food is good most of the time. I'm not going back because they are very cheap with the Salsa.The prices are expensive and then they only give you 3 small salsa containers even if you have multiple platters of food. That bugs me and my family read more

My margarita was wonderful. The bowl for the chips were small, then he asked for a refill and they gave him 7 chips!!! I had a Tostada Granda and he had two very small tacos. Food was good but small portions. read more

Great food, excellent margaritas and nice people! Their house wine is from Fallbrook Winery, just awesome. It's a great treasure right here in Fallbrook! read more

I've dined there in the past. Food is ok. 5 customers in the building and not busy at all. I was invisible to the wait staff. I left and went somewhere else. "Unfortunately," Won't be going back. I'm just saying. read more

Great food and service. Seven seas soup, enchiladas and mango tajin margarita were all pretty good. 4 stars because the tortilla soup wasn't the best. read more

Great little gem in Fallbrook Large menu selections Will try again. Nice large patios with shade, we had Molcajete Pacifico Fish Tacos Flan and all were great! read more

I'm not sure what happened to this place. Our family used to eat here weekly. The last two times our orders have had something wrong with them and when they offer to "replace" it, bring back half a plate of the now cold food from your old plate? The manager was absolutely no help, and the old lady that served us had the absolute WORST attitude. Take your business to Estrellas! read more

Been here a few times and the food and service is always great , drinks are always good here !

Your menu is so extensive that it took me 10 minutes to decide which delectable entrée I would try. I ended up with the enchilada Suiza's and did not need rice or beans. I asked if I could have a salad instead. I wish you would've brought the huge salad before my dinner as I didn't have any appetite to eat it after the enchiladas. It was a complete waste of money. The food came out quickly! The guacamole and salsa was very tasty And this will be our go to restaurant for Mexican food in our sweet town. My girlfriends and I have enjoyed happy hour here before and the drinks are always perfect! read more

Service was a bit slow but the staff was really kind and kept our drinks filled and out chips and salsa flowing. Cute place. Good food. Really nice staff. read more

Been here 3 times, first two times were pretty good. Last time though was horrible. We will not be returning. Our server was extremely rude and acted like we were bugging her by asking questions about the menu (she didn't even know if a burrito came wet or not). 2/5 meals ordered were brought incorrectly prepared. And one had a large piece of what looked to be a string from someone's clothes? Or a rag inside of it. Food was cold and soggy. Once I showed her that there was a string in the burrito, she was snappy and rude again. Didn't apologize or anything. After that she never once returned to the table. It's really disappointing to have had this experience because it was so different than the first times we went. But we will not be back. read more

Took a shot on this place for a breakfast burrito, $12 for a couple eggs and a bunch of potato. Not very good. I guess you have to stick with fish from here. read more

We came to visit family in Fallbrook and realized that this business is owned by a family relative of the same location in Vista. Both these locations are great!I know that when you visit a place that specialize in mariscos it's a weird move to order anything else. But don't let that stop you from getting the savory carne asada. If you want the best of both world get the molcajete pacifico! And the Cazuela de Marisco has a special spice to the sauce! And to top it all off the drinks are just so appealing and delicious. read more

See all

It is our go to for great Mexican food and drinks. The service is always on point very polite and fast.

It has been 3 years. We came back. It was so good to get out of house. Because of covid. The food was great. There was so many people but not servers. But they still did a great job. Thank You .. read more

See all

I love this place ! Fish dinners , fresh fish tacos yummie drinks I recommend it to everyone

Best Mexican Restaurant in Fallbrook hands down! Foods amazing and the staff are super friendly.

Food took 1 hour to come out and it was pretty bad food. It was cold my shrimp Was raw worse restaurant. They gave me just a big piece of cheese instead of cutting it HOW LAZY. read more

First time to restaurant.........and it was wonderful. I love seafood and ordered the TOSTADA DE MARISCOS $9.99 A mixture of shrimp & fish ceviche, octopus, scallop, and oyster.The presentation was beautiful. Tostada shell on top so it wouldnt get mushy. The seafood was incredible...........the octopus was fresh and tender, as well as the other seafood Price was amazing and I will certainly be back..............The waitress was attentive and helpful. Go...you will love the seafood, Cheryle read more

I gave them several tries as I used to love Mariscos in different places. Service was OK, and the waitresses were nice and helpful, service was quick. The last time I ordered a seafood cocktail it said "oysters", but it came with one miserable oyster on the side almost floating in tap water (not to mention I asked not to wash it). They used to put 2-3 oysters on the top, now I had some shreds of something instead of oysters. If you don't have oysters, don't make it, but don't cheat. The price has gone up, but the quality of food - down. read more

It's a little house. (Years ago it was called La Casita.) Yes, the seafood's great. Servers are visibly happy and courteous, displaying the right mix of interest and distance during a meal. But there's another element, unknown to most who walk in, that elevates this shop above the rest. Zozimo, the proprietor, is a philanthropist. He offers his resources to help the local disadvantaged. Yes, he serves a very good product in a cozy setting but, more importantly, Zozimo helps people. Knowing that makes the food taste even better. read more

Food was ok, service was very good sever was on point. Ambiance was good.. reminded me of our Mexican Restaurant's in Pico Rivera, Los Angeles County read more

Came here on the recommendation of a local who said they have something called the fried avocado. It was like a mozzy stick had sex with on avocado basically. It was deep fried in tempura and delicious. Dip it in ranch. Can't speak for anything else but they have a nice little patio and the chips and salsa were god. read more

Good service all the time. Food is good an love the music all the time. Recommend camarones a la diablia if you love spicy food.

Order to go and included a few margaritas. Nice staff. Wish more for this business. Make sure to leave a tip, noticed people leaving small tips while I've been here. read more

This was our first time here and we could not have been more delighted! First of all, the service was perfect. Everyone was happy and attentive. The meal was pure perfection if you want authentic Mexican. I had grilled shrimp in a spicy sauce. I love spicy food and often can't get the right level of fire. I asked our delightful server to make sure it's spicy. She smiled and said, "It's spicy!" She wasn't kidding. It was delicious - served with authentic rice and beans and hot flour tortillas. My husband had the Bisteca Ranchero. He's the opposite of my on the spice spectrum so was worried it would be too hot. Again, we asked the server and she said it wasn't too spicy. He was pleasantly surprised and loved his meal. To top it off, they make a great Cadillac margarita and have Fallbrook wines (which are delicious). And - we sat on a lovely patio with Mexican music playing which made for a great atmosphere. Everyone had masks on until they got to their tables and all employees wore them. They also sprayed the tables as people left. So, COVID safe from our perspective. Highly recommend Mariscos if you find yourself in Fallbrook! read more

Absolutely the worst restaurant in Fallbrook. Service took over any hour to get food. When we finally got our food the order was wrong. If people tell you they have food allergies you accommodate. Especially if it's accommodating on the menu. This place is gonna get someone sick or killed. To top it off the the Manager doesn't care to make it right. Dirty glasses, shitty service, and staff that doesn't listen. Would not recommend this place to anyone, other than the health inspector to drop in. read more

We had our rehearsal brunch here for 36ish guests, on the patio that was fully shaded and nicely decorated. The food was really good and came in large portions. The only issue was the mosquitos outside. It was during the day and in October, so we didn't expect it or even notice until the next day. Overall, a great place for brunch read more

Delicious foods, well prepared, beautiful presentation! . Great ambiance. Excellent service! Reasonably priced.

Value is awesome! Octopus entre (or appetizer) is full of Spanish flavor. The Enchiladas qaxaquanas has sooooo much chicken you can't eat it all. Skinny Margaritas are a perfect accompaniment. Staff (which are hard to find since Covid) are awesomely attentive but not intrusive. Food isn't gourmet but for the money it is a great value. Ps. Children are welcome read more

Great Mexican food and love the Margaritas. Ask to sit on the patio. Ambience of old Mexico. Chile Rollino was very tasty but ask for the green sauce. Chicken mole was also done just right. read more
