    Tacos and tostado
    Quynh-Nhi N.

    Tried Marisco El Puerto for the first time and loved it! I ordered the pescado (fish) taco and the tostada ceviche de camarón (shrimp). Both were so delicious. My friend got the asada (steak) taco and said it was just as tasty. We went with corn tortillas and they were perfect. You order at the counter, get a number, and seat yourself. Heads up, parking is very limited so plan ahead during rush hour. They serve lemon instead of lime with your food which was different but still good.

    oooo was craving seafood after a morning workout and decided to check this place out. the aguachile tostada was refreshing and the fish burrito was very filling! you can ask for extra crema and salsa on the side to eat with the fish burrito as well. the batter on the fish was a little salty to me but overall, the food was pretty darn good. the workers were also very nice and attentive.

    2 Taco Combo -1 fish / 1 shrimp + 1 asada taco

    Wow, I really enjoyed my taco combo! Yummmmm. I have always liked Mexican food but have been recently obsessed with tacos. I need to try one everywhere I go. Haha! My Mexican boyfriend has been introducing me to the best places to eat, and I would have to add these to my favorites list! I ordered the two-taco combo. It comes with one fish taco, one shrimp taco, beans, and rice. I added an asada taco because I like to try a little bit of everything. Amazinggg i devoured my meal within 10 mins. I wasn't even that hungry, but it was just that good. I really enjoyed the sauces. There was a slight chipotle-style sauce and a creamier white one. They both complimented all the tacos. The reviews are great and led me to find this spot. You know it will be a good spot when all the locals and Mexican people are filling up the restaurant and parking lot. It got pretty full by the time I had left, and I can definitely see why. Love it! I can't wait to bring my bf so we can try to try the ceviche tosadas together!

    This place was surprisingly good. We ordered different plate items and we were all very pleased with the food. Everything was great. Fish tacos were wonderful and the pescado à la plancha was moist and delicious.

    Mi familias! Feels like home or at my tíos house. Great authentic Mexican food seafood. Plenty of seating in a crowded restaurant. If you really good Mexican food this is the place!

    Michelada & Menudo, SO CHEWY & RUBBERY! Didn't eat much and had to throw it away
    Lora M.

    I'm guessing by the reviews, this place must be known only for their fish tacos. We came and got take out Menudo & a michelada. We already have our favorite Menudo spot, but we were close to this place. We do not recommend the Menudo! It's VERY small for the price, it's SO CHEWY & RUBBERY. I felt like I was going to choke on the pieces. I couldn't even finish it, what a waste of money. I chewed so much my jaw was hurting. The Michelada was okay, nothing to write home about. We will not be returning & will keep our favorite spot that's always consistent & delicious

    I really enjoyed this taco shop! I think the tacos is more on the pricier side but it was delicious! Service was good, there was a line when I was there! Ambiance was busy, all tables were taken and so I had to be on the lookout!

    Tostada de camarón and Tostada de Jaiba

    Omg this place was so good! My husband and I visited today and tried their tostadas and shrimp tacos. So so good. I'm usually picky with my mariscos but this place definitely was top tier. Service was amazing and workers gave really good customer service. Will come back

    This place is a gem!! The service is great! The employees are so kind and helpful when ordering. The food, let me tell you!! You have to stop here and get the ceviche and all the tacos are delicious and fresh!! The ranch is so good and fresh. There's plenty of seating but I do hear it can get packed!!

    Fish taco combination for $12 with a drink.

    Came by for lunch while attending a meeting in Chino. I had seen reviews on Yelp and brought a few coworkers with me. Each of them thought all the food was great. Service was quick and warm. I ordered the fish tacos combo with 3 tacos. You can order 2 or 3 tacos with the combo. I would've liked to have had the option to get a combo plate with fish and asada tacos to try them out. I guess I could've ordered them a la carte. The beans and the rice were also tasty. The restaurant has this mom and pop vibe which is good. You know when you see people coming there during lunch from all walks of life that it's a good spot. I'd like to come back soon.

    Very good mariscos place. The menu covers all your basics plus more and the prices are more than fair. There's something for everyone ranging from cold to hot seafood. The restaurant itself is very clean and there's servers constantly keeping it clean. I highly recommend this place and will be coming back.

    The entrance is right next to the ordering table so you have to walk through the line if there is one. Kind of a weird set up. The serve is really nice though and very patient. Everyone is usually pretty nice so no need to feel bad about walking by people. It's a small shop but they are pretty popular so there's a lot of people who are there. At least that's what I saw when I was there. We got our food after the called our order number and it was actually pretty good. It may not look very quality but it is. The beans were pretty watery but we didn't eat them anyways. We all had a good time here and the food was decent and the drinks are HUGE! We called them fishbowls ! They're so big so definitely come here for a drink or two. I enjoyed this place and I thought it was a cute little shop where everyone works hard and makes it a quality place at heart.

    The place is a nice little quaint dining area. They need to set it up a different way because the line goes right through the seating area, but the food is delicious and fresh. I had the fish tacos and I saw the taco and I bought a burrito I saw the burrito which was big the tortilla look and taste like it was homemade. The salsa were good and fresh. My friend invited me there. It was taco Tuesday for the tacos are pretty reasonable in price so you could really get some good amount of food there for that deal.

    First time here came for lunch Right off the bat as I walked…read morein I was greeted by the cooks which of course is nice. Atmosphere was nice, music was playing. I really came for the Quesobirria tacos I ordered the combo with 3 tacos and rice and beans. Also got a regular drink that did not come with the combo. Total was around $25 which kinda crazy but I understand price for meat has gotten higher so restaurants still need to make a profit. They had three salsa this I have to say was the only downside was that none of them were actually spicy at all. I'm not sure if the one I had was the habanero one that's what it was labeled, but it did not taste nor look like habanero salsa so perhaps they just didn't have that one at the bar. Once I got my plate, it looked great Every taco had a very good portion of meat inside they were nice and seasoned. The meat was not even remotely dry. It was nice and tender and juicy. Tacos were by far the best ones I've had in this area. Their rice and beans were good as well. All in all, I definitely will be coming back. Also, I love that they have outdoor seating.

The spot smells amazing when you walk in, super welcoming, and the staff were so patient helping all three of us order. I got a combo with a red chili cheese enchilada, crunchy beef taco, chile relleno, rice, and beans. The crunchy taco was  what I wanted, like homemade but better. The enchilada was okay, not the star but not bad either. The beans were honestly delicious, and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. My sister got a carne asada torta and it was bussin'! It had Mexican sour cream and real cheese, packed with flavor. One of the best tortas I've ever tried. My mom got carne asada tacos with rice and beans plus a carnitas mulita, and the meats were super flavorful across the board. Overall experience felt like a 5-star visit because of the food and service. If I'm being picky, I'd give it a 4.5 because there weren't limes out, no diet/zero-sugar drink options besides water, and the chairs weren't super comfy. But none of that would stop me from coming back. Definitely recommend, especially if you're new to the area like me and looking for a solid, welcoming spot. We'll be back for sure.

We got sat immediately, I went to the bar and checked w the bartender and she was equipped to make my new drink, the "New York Sour!" I ordered the wings, the carne en su jugo for my food. The wings were like chili lime flavored, it wasn't bad but not for me. The chicken wings were cooked really well, it would be dope if they did like mole wings or maybe like a pepita lime dry rub, the wings were there, I just wish they had more flavor options. The carne en su jugo was very good, I love frijoles, I'm a frijolero for real and it hit all the right spots for me. I rolled my corn tortillas up and I felt like I was home again. THE WAITRESS THAT ATTENDED TO US WAS THE BEST WAITRESS I'VE HAD IN THE WHOLE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. I can't recall her name but she was just the best with service and recommendations. She had to step away for a few minutes and she handed us off to another waiter, but the crazy part??? She came back! She saw our meal out to the end and handled her business. When it was time to pay the bill she had everyone separated by seat numbers, so that process was really stress free. Exceptional service 100/10. I also really like the photographer in the restaurant deal. I usually have only seen that in the club but it works well at the restaurant too. My only wish is that they offered a digital sale of the photos. We took some cool photos with our work group but we HAD to buy the physical copy and because we fly, it's hard to store those kinds of things. Amazing job! Visit here if you're thinking about it.

First, there is a photographer who insisted taking pictures of us, two at a time, with poses she insisted we do. When we tell her no, she continues to push for us to do it. Then she develops the pictures and put them in picture frames in front of us asking us to buy them. I really don't appreciate being sold extra "services" at a restaurant. I came to have a meal with coworkers, not to be sold extra stuff so the restaurant can make some more money. And when we ordered extra food to-go separately (we had separate checks), the waiter put all our food in one bag and didn't tell us. These were two identical burritos, but they put one in a plastic to-go box, and the other only wrapped with paper. When we told them these were for separate orders, the waitress brought over a paper bag for me to separate out my burrito. It just doesn't make sense why two identical orders should be done differently.

We waited for a table while the hostess was seated at the table next to where we were standing. They had one waitress covering the handful of patrons which led to long waits for everything. We ordered Camarones a la Diabla and the taquito combo. They screwed up and gave my wife flautas instead. I got medium spiciness for the shrimp but there was no spice. After I ordered more food because of the portions this place provides. The food portions are like a cross between kindergarten and a fancy restaurant. The food portions offer more plate than food and the rice comes in the shape of whatever scoop was used. After ordering more food, the waitress then told me that she should've let me know that what I ordered wasn't very popular because of the size.... Because there are only like 8 small shrimp. Beyond the problem with the portions, the taste wasn't very good. It's definitely an upgrade to Taco Bell... but consistent with Mexican food in a primarily Caucasian neighborhood. After messing up the order, they then forgot a drink I'd ordered. The restaurant was quieter than Kalaveras, which they replaced. It was much quieter and didn't have the club feel.
