    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.

    We had the Camarones à la Diabla, filete à la plancha con camarones and the shrimp ceviche tostada which were craazzzyyyyy!!!! For the price this place is a gem. Honestly felt the community come out on this one. While we were there the place filled up with people whose plates looked so good. First time here a week ago and this place didn't disappoint. We're going back today.

    2 Taco Combo -1 fish / 1 shrimp + 1 asada taco
    Star S.

    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!

    aguachile tostada & fish burrito
    Emily S.

    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.

    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!

    No room for trash it was full inside.

    I don't know where to start with this place, first of all the food pick up by the door is the worst placement i have ever seen in a restaurant the people walking in are bumping into the people picking up their orders and the people who are still ordering but they can easily put the pick up on the other side where the table with hot sauce and one napkin box is taking so much space smh! The soda was terrible no taste at all and the rice is bad, the trash can was full and nasty on mothers day, plus I don't know if there is even a bathroom lol other then all that madness the food was decent and not to expensive and staff was friendly enough.

    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!

    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.

    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

    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.

    Fish taco combination for $12 with a drink.
    Robert G.

    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.

    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!!

The prices were comparable to other similar places but this place also offers all you can eat (except holidays) but we did not do this as we did not have the appetite. Plenty of parking and close to Ontario Mills. Staff were very friendly. Restaurant could use a facelift in some areas like the restroom but overall relatively clean. We ordered 2lbs medium spice house seasoned whole shrimp with corn and an egg, cucumber salad, and Cajun fries. The cucumber salad has a soy/vinegar sauce. We ordered it mainly to cut the butter/salt from the other stuff, it was decent, there was a little bitterness from the cucumber. The shrimps were nice and plump, only 1-2 were overdone at the bottom of the bag. The flavor was tasty, though I would have liked chunks of garlic in the bag to enhance more flavor. The basil was different than most places we've frequented, a welcomed surprise. Although we ordered medium spice, I think it was more on the mild side. The Cajun fries had a nice bite to them, but were simply fries with seasoned salt/Cajun seasoning on top...I've had better but they went well with the shrimps. Corn was sweet and egg was fine.

Sam did a great job taking care of us throughout our entire meal. He regularly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, including refills, extra lemons, and pepper. The service was excellent from start to finish! My wife and I ordered 2lbs. of shrimp at $17/lb, with add-ons including corn at $1.95 each, potatoes at $2.95, and 1/2 sausage for $8.95. We also had a soda for $4.50 with free refills. Our total came out to $59.05, including tax. We chose the house mix with the spicy flavor, and it was delicious! The shrimp was flavorful, and we were completely satisfied with the both the food and the service. We're definitely adding this place to our list of go-to spots and will be back again!

Our usual order is 1lb of shrimp and 1lb of mussels, and we've always been happy with it. This time, we decided to try the Combo #2 because we wanted to add crab legs. We ordered three combo bags, each with shrimp, mussels, and crab legs. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like there was anywhere close to 1lb each of shrimp and mussels in the bags. I can't prove it, so I can only share our experience, but it honestly felt like there were fewer than 15 shrimp in the bag. For the first time ever, we finished our meal and were still hungry afterward. Based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend ordering the combo bag. Not only did it seem like there was significantly less food, but with all the ingredients piled together, some items ended up overcooked. We were really disappointed because we've had consistently good experiences with multiple locations here over the years. Hopefully this was just an off day, but we'll be sticking with ordering the seafood separately next time.

The shop is also very spacious and seating is pretty comfortable for a relaxed business. They pack their boxes pretty full with food, very generous with the portions. I got the chicken combo (katsu and chicken), and my bf got the beef combo (which comes with 2 types of ribs and this grilled beef). Service was pretty quick as well. Starting off with the chicken, it was pretty standard. Although, I actually liked the katsu the least bc the batter was kinda whatever? It's a bit too airy and flimsy, doesn't have the right crunch and doesn't stick with the meat. I basically just ate the meat from the inside of the katsu cause it felt like wasted calories on the fried parts of the katsu. The teriyaki chicken was alright, wish it was grilled more, but pretty decent. Tried my bf's plate, the bbq meat was pretty good, it actually reminded me of bulgogi. The short ribs were also pretty good, and the giant rib was also pretty good as well! The meat would fall off so easily. I feel like the beef plate tasted better in quality. Although, my bf mentioned that the marinade for everything was generally pretty sweet, which he didn't like so much. I didn't mind it, but I do notice that generally everything was indeed on the sweeter side. The mac salad and rice were also quite nice. Easy place to get quick food with pretty good quality meats (except the katsu probably). The vibes of the restaurant are also very welcoming and relaxed.

HOUSE PAN ROAST It tasted exactly what was expected. A creamy tomato soup consistency and flavor. Got level 2 or 3 for spice level. I wanted more of that creamy flavor, not spice. Any higher than 3 would be Tabasco level spice and up. Deliciously filled with shrimp, chopped scallops, small crab meat. I could taste the crab meat, which was all sitting at the bottom of the bowl. The scoop of jasmine rice with the creamy pan roast was comfort on another level. Got the small size, but it is enough for me. I do wish there were more shrimp and scallops and crab in the pan roast. I felt the scallops and crab were chopped too small and wished there was a bit more. But still I enjoyed the pan roast and would get it again. As an appetizer and accompaniment to the house pan roast, they bring a basket with three sliced breads and a side of butter. It's a light, soft bread with a bit of sour flavor. Didn't like it. I would have preferred dinner rolls. CUSTOMER SERVICE I arrived 1 hr before lunch closing time. It closes at 2:00pm and then re-opens for dinner at 5:00pm. But service was good! Only one server, but she checked back with everyone and all around better than most places I've been at recently. Lots of people came in 30-40 mins before closing time. Still, service was friendly and they weren't turned away. LOCATION At The Commons at Chino Hills. This is a large outdoor mall and have many parking spaces.

    Hey Jackson, Instead…read moreof giving me an imaginary prize for being relentless, I would much rather appreciate your business taking accountability for the really poor service I had to experience in order to get a basic refund as a result of a mistake that was clearly from your restaurant. I can definitely be more upfront about my dietary needs moving forward when ordering, but even your employee admitted over the phone that chicken is not automatically part of the item that I ordered. If your staff wanted to add chicken to an item that should be seafood only, perhaps they should have asked if I was okay with that. After communicating with your employee about my concerns, I realized that the mistake on the food was secondary compared to the horrendous service I experienced when I shared my concerns. In your reply, you failed to mention anything regarding customer service that I mentioned, so let me say these facts again. I was hung up on several times over the phone, ignored multiple times when I showed up in person the next day, pressured to sign a claims release in order to get the refund, then was told I was an inconvenience to your business. Another fact is I lost my appetite after tasting your food yet was essentially called a liar when I came in the next day because I didn't appear sick to your employee. I cannot believe that is how your employee was allowed to treat a customer and I honestly hope you had a serious conversation with them. For the record, I was signed out of my main account for several months and did leave a review on a temporary account. Once I gained access to my main account, the review on my temporary account got deleted because that account got deleted. I operate on only one account and needed to re-write any reviews that got deleted. Looks like someone reported my review for your business, so I did revise it to better follow yelp's guidelines. Therefore, it is absolutely not an exact duplicate of the previous review. The real impact here is not only the loss of appetite, but also how I was treated after I raised concerns. It really was one of the most horrendous experience with restaurant staff. I will never again feel comfortable stepping inside your restaurant that is careless enough to scoop an item that was already made with chicken in it instead of making a fresh one with only seafood then try to pressure a customer to sign a claims release to protect yourselves. Nice try, but I'm not falling for that and neither should anyone else.
