"El número uno" tastes amazing it is spicy and flavorful
Chelsea L.

As soon as you walk by you can smell the delicious food. The service was amazing we were greeted and helped right away. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the mood for some fresh seafood so many options to choose from.

Business hours

Fresh seafood, delicious all your mariscos need stop by you won't be disappointed. Service is quick nice and clean friendly staff. Mixta, tacos and aquachile take phone order...order in advance no wait

Plates to pick from
R G.

If you're looking for the best Mariscos' this is the place to go! I been going for years and never disappointed. Lots of plates to pick from I travel for 45 mins each way to eat these amazing Mariscos.

Craving a shrimp cocktail decided to order from this local food truck. Placed a phone order and it was ready once I arrived. Quality is good, i stick to the basic and prices probably reasonable. I tried searching for pricing on yelp and didn't find any. Hope these pics help. They accept cash/Zelle.

Ceviche cocido
Julien B.

This truck is a real treat. I don't get it often because it's expensive, but it's well priced for the freshness and the portions, like I said, it's a treat, and when I treat myself, it's usually towards the end of a daily constitutional around the park. I've tried the Cali, the Malibu, I just got my daughter some cooked ceviche without chile, she loves it. The viente (that's wind, right?) has mangos, scallops, avocado, onion, and heat! The flavors really burst with citrus and habanero, it's enticing. If you're ever near Earvin Magic Johnson, get you some, there's a wide variety of choices and it's high quality stuff, turn you romantic.

Outside Of The Lunch Truck!

My Favorite Place For Mariscos They Have The Best Plates, Best Cocteles, Best Tostadas, Best Part About Everything, It's Always Fresh. They Are Always Super Friendly And Polite Upon Ordering. They Are Always Fast When I Order My Food, The Wait Time Is Amazing. My Go To Order For Two People Is El Padrino: Raw Shrimp Cooked In Lemon With Spicy Aguachile And Mango. El Malibu And The Campechena Are Amazing Too. They Serve In Large Portions. If You Are Ever In The Area You Have To Give Mariscos El Patron A Try, You Won't Be Dissapointed.

The girl behind the counter was Effin awesome. I loved her attitude and was soooo helpful. I feel bad for not getting her name. But she rocked!! Food Review: Tacos were man o man... they are a must. I got the chicken tacos with the BBQ sauce. The cream sauce n pico de Gallo was yummy and flavorful. The chicken was juicy and flavorful too. Mac N Cheese was soo good it was just missing a lil pepper lol but over all it was good Fries were hot and fresh and seasoned well loved the fries. Last but not least ....... My Chicken Wings....I got the spicy lemon pepper. The chicken was cooked very well...seasoned to perfection. I love how crunchy it was as I bit into it then the meat was nice and juicy. I loved them. They were pretty big and worth the price. I'm a bit sad I didn't take pictures of my wings. Ranch that they use good I will be going back to try the rest of the menu

My partner and I were trying something new for dinner, i remember I saw this place on IG and…read morecouldn't wait to try it. We ordered online and picked up moments after we arrived. I got the 6 pc chicken tenders tossed in "Cha Cha" sauce (honey sriracha) with a side of fries. My partner got the Belly something, but his box consisted of lemon pepper and honey BBQ wings with buffalo ranch fries . The food was SO GOOD! I can not wait to try the chicken tenders in several of the sauces. The establishment appears to be more of a place of "order your food and go". The cook knew our order off the top of his head. Lastly, the parking lot is pretty tight.

So i am a bit confused about the photos here, because there is an actual restaurant looking place,…read moresome little cart and a food truck. Hopefully they are all related. My review is based on the food truck. It was my son's birthday. He was allowed to chose anything he wanted for dinner. Any price point... anything. Well i had seen this on Instagram and shared it with him two weeks prior. At first he wanted to go to Nobu or there were a few other high end options, but that is not his style honestly. Luckily, he remembered the post that I shared. He wanted to go here. Well, buckle up kids, we are going on a field trip! We left work/schools early and took a drive to Compton. When our navigation said we had arrived it suggested we park in the lot across from the library. Ok. There directly in front of the library was the food truck. There was a small line, so that was ideal. Not a long wait. My other smaller human and i went to wash their hands in the library. When i came out he had ordered the hungry man or something. It was more than enough for us. The oxtail was good. The ribs were good. The chicken was good. The cornbread was yummy. Just not over the moon for the greens... and i loooove collard greens. But that's ok. We went for the meats. They were out of the dinosaur ribs, so maybe if we go early enough next time, we can try those. We took it across the street to the park and ate and that was enough time for the small one to also play to get energy out before we headed home. The drive home was long, now that rush hour traffic had started. But none of us complained, because the meal was worth it.

This is a food truck located on the corner of Crenshaw Blvd. And Marine Ave. in front of a 7-11 gas…read morestation and car wash. When I've ordered from El Chiapas Tacos in the past, it was an orange colored food truck. This time around, it was a blue colored one with a focus on seafood. I've grown to really like the carnitas tacos at El Chiapas and fortunately this blue colored truck still sold those. I got a plate of three carnitas tacos with beans and rice. I topped them with cilantro and onions, which you get at their self serve station. The tacos were delicious. The service was nice and quick as usual. I was a little disappointed with my experience this time around. They didn't have the pina agua fresca that I usually order with my food. Also, the truck was parked right in front of the car wash (it used to be parked in front of the gas station). The car wash was so noisy that it was difficult to order the food. That being said, I'll continue to come back to this place when I get a craving for good carnitas tacos. Where they can park is probably out of their control.

We were at the movie theater across the street and decided on eating some food before heading home…read more I ordered the Al Pastor burrito supreme which comes with cheese and avocado. The service was quick even with it being a bit busy. There are hundreds of taco trucks and not all are created equal, the burrito was really good.
