Great spot for takeout! The ceviche was very fresh and came with chips. Food was ready really quickly as well. The staff is very nice too!
Amazing. Amazing amazing. Go and try this place and trust me you will continue to keep going l. The food is so fresh and taste so darn good. Dishes are beautiful and will make all your taste buds so happy. The service is friendly and seafood is so fresh. The rib eye taco is insanely delicious. The ceviches and aguachilles are some of the best I've had in so long. Some days it may get very busy but I try and go on the weekdays
Came here on a weekend evening, and waited ~15 minutes outside in line for a table for 2. We tried the classic aguachile, mixed ceviche, steak and octopus tacos. I felt like they tacos were nothing special, but the Agua Chile and ceviche were delicious and such a good value for the price. we also got the hibiscus and tamarind drinks. There's a good amount of seating inside, especially for larger groups so I would definitely come back!
The aguachile is just sooooooo goooooood. I could drink it. Tacos are all so amazing . The michelada by wasn't my favorite tasted very seafoody but some like that. Service was fast and courteous. Clean place and had live music.
Everything was fresh and delicious. I got an agua de Jamaica and agua chile mixta verde. It's large enough to share for 2 people and you get tostadas. The tostada de tuna is definitely a must have. The taco de pulpo was good as well and it has cheese which is different. The staff are very attentive. Definitely don't be intimidated if you don't speak Spanish, the staff speak English as well!
So this place is like all the hype is about it. Very good service Very clean The food is different and very quick , tasty and leaves you wanting more . Position are a bit small for a whole in the wall like this and prices are high especially on the tacos but that's because the quality seems really good and fresh and effort put into it. I will definitely try to come back And come early no reservations have to wait in lines cold or warm you will have to. Maybe they should open another spot or expand but that's their business .
This spot is such a great time! The vibes and environment are so fun & sitting outside was all the better. The dishes were all sooo delicious & reminded me of the food we had in Mexico City. They take so much care and effort into infusing the food with authenticity and you can taste it in every bite. Loved honestly everything we got: Aguachile verde, norteño, kraken taco, ribeye steak taco & gobernador!
Haven't been here in a while so we decided to have dinner here since we were in the area. No line on a Tuesday night, lots of tables available. We ordered The Craken, submarino ceviche, a dozen grilled shrimps, and a tequila margarita. Food came pretty quick...I thought the Craken would've had a slightly bigger piece of octopus but it was cooked well. Buttery, very tasty. The ceviche tasted less sour than we recalled which we preferred. We added some hot sauce for added heat. The shrimps were a lil more charred than pictured but still good. Margarita was okay. Didn't order too much since we were going to get food elsewhere but we did like everything. The food tastes better than before.
Gave Mariscos El Submarino another try after 9 months. Since we only had the aguachile last time and didn't try any of the other options, it felt like I missed a huge chunk of the menu. I have had a number of really great aguachiles since then so it was time to compare it to the rest. We decided to try a little bit of everything! We ordered grilled prawns, shrimp and cheese taco, steak taco, octopus taco, and guacamole with fried octopus. The tacos were very good especially the steak tacos! Each taco had melted cheese in the center which made each bite soft and squishy. The grilled prawns were smoky and half a dozen was perfect for 2 people. The verde aguachile mixtos tasted more refined than our original experience and they've now added cooked shrimp along with raw shrimp, fish, and cooked octopus. There's definitely a lot of seafood so the value was absolutely there with chunks of cucumber, onion and avocado. I get it now!
If you're looking for a flavorful, refreshing, and authentic Mexican bite, this is the place to go. Everything we got was great, from the hot food, like the grilled shrimp and the tacos, to the cold food, like the ceviche, guacamole, and aguas chiles. Everything was superb. The service was super fast and friendly, and the ambiance inside was great. They even had a live mariachi band playing! We did wait in line about 30 minutes, but I feel like it moved pretty quickly considering how long it was.
Food: The food is excellent here! We asked our server for recommendations and ended up trying the shrimp taco, octopus taco, fish ceviche, and aguachile. All dishes were delicious but we loved the ceviche and aguachile the most. The ceviche was fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. Fish, cucumbers, onions, and tomatoes were diced very small and served with chips on the side. The server came around and offered us more chips throughout the meal. The aguachile was also very fresh. The one we chose had fish, shrimp, and octopus. I would highly recommend any of the ceviche snd aguachile dishes. The tacos were good, but I wish they were served hotter. The flavor was good, and it was packed with seafood. If you like octopus, I would recommend the octopus taco. Service: Service was phenomenal. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and taken care of. A manager came over to take our order, and he very patiently gave us recommendations and explained the menu to us. He was friendly and very welcoming. Our server checked in on us throughout the meal and was super attentive. She offered us chips, took out our empty dishes, and asked us if we needed anything. Very lovely staff! Ambiance: The decor and vibe is very nice! The place is very bright and kept clean. There are many tables in the place. Both large and small groups can be accommodated. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!
One of the best in Jackson Heights! Food is fresh, staff are friendly and tables are clean. The aguachiles is delish --I've had both the negro and verde and prefer the negro. Their el gobernador is one of my fave tacos! Shrimp is sweet and probably the biggest sized taco on the menu. The craken is also a great choice as it's grilled to perfection. And lastly do get the grilled shrimp... they are divine and you can taste the smokiness from the grilling.
I got takeout from here and I think this place is pretty good value for price in terms of seafood. The peel off seared shrimps were very delicious and tender and naturally sweet. I should have saved the heads to make stock or something haha. The ceviche el submarino was also delicious and I think the octopus tacos were a little bit chewy but still pretty good. My favorite bites from this meal were definitely the shrimps!
This is the OG Mariscos El Submarino, and this brings you the joy of mexican seafood without having to go to Mexico. Wow, is it nice to go here! I haven't been to their other locations in the city, but this was really quite good. My recommendations are the El Gobernador, The Cracken, an aguachile (mango habanero is my fave) and the tuna toastada. The Ceviches are quite boring in my opinion, so go for an aguachile instead. DRinks are great, they have cantaritos and carajillos. What could go wrong if you've got both to choose from. Service is friendly and the ambiance is authentic mexican food plus air condiditoning. We'll be back. read more

We stopped in for lunch on Saturday, and there were a few tables occupied, but the restaurant had a comfortable volume and wasn't too crowded. Our server was extremely friendly and helpful, and she was happy to answer all of our questions about the menu. The fish was fresh, and the ceviche was solid, although there was no wow factor. The standout for me was the Molcajete Norteño, the fried octopus with guacamole, which was delicious. The most annoying part of the experience was when a kid came in and turned the music up extremely loud, then started singing a solo and going around asking everyone for tips afterward. We gave him $3 for his effort, but honestly, it was more loud and annoying than entertaining. I'm not even sure if he worked there or was just someone who came in off the street. Overall, the food was solid and the service was friendly, but I'm not exactly counting down the days until my next visit. read more
I saw this on TikTok and the food looked so good that I had to try. Mariscos El Submarino have several locations in NYC and this is one of their original ones in Queens. All their locations have pretty good ratings so I can't really go wrong. Came around 11am on a weekend and it was busy but there were tables available. The tables are arranged pretty strategically to fit as many as possible, which isn't the best for comfort. The service is nice here. The menu is in Spanish but they do have an English menu if you scan a QR code. I ordered the craken taco, costra taco, verde aguachile mixtos, a half dozen grilled shrimps, a la exotica, and guac with fried octopus. Everything was delicious! This place did not disappoint. Although, next time I'd probably skip the Craken taco and verde aguachile even though these two are a top recommendation. My favorite dish was probably the grilled shrimp. The way they grill it really brings out the sweetness and flavor of the shrimp. I personally enjoyed the la exotica more than the aguachile. The guac was also really good and the fried octopus was a good addition. I will definitely go to their other locations. This is a must try for seafood lovers. read more

What an absolutely incredible experience here. We waited in line for about 15-20 mins before we got seated, once we were seated our server Andrew was very polite and recommended a bunch of different items to try since this was our first time here. We got two different we got two diff mixtos, the craken tacos, the la cosentida tostada, and steak tacos. Oh we also got a dozen of their shrimp. Everything was absolutely incredible. The food was outstanding, the service was great. It is a nice small place that is kept very clean. Overall this is a must try. Absolutely delicious. read more

All positive reviews of this establishment are valid! The food is amazing, the service is great, and the vibes are Mexican! I had a fish taco, verde aguachile, chips & guac w/octopus, and ceviche. The ceviche was my favorite. Everything slapped! The seafood tasted fresh and everything was properly seasoned. I was so busy enjoying the food that I forgot to snap a pic of the aguachile. There may be a bit of a wait to get in but it's worth it. I have nothing but good things to say. This is a Queens gem read more
I came here with my friend on Saturday and had a good time. They were really busy, there was even a line outside. We waited on the line for about 15-25 minutes. I'm not sure if the aguachile was worth the wait for me, however the pulpo taco definitely was! I found the aguachile to be too bitter, not enough flavor. I'd be curious to try their mango habanero agua chile next and see what other taco options they have. read more
Food - chef's kiss Service - no fuss Ambiance - nit a fancy setup but nice and clean The food here was amazing. Everything tasted fresh. And prices were affordable in this economy. Definitely will go back. It's already busy enough so they dont need your business. And I rather you dont go either so I also dont have to wait even longer in line. read more
Worth the line outside! Staff are very kind and food comes out fast. Loved my Agua de Tamarindo, refreshing, light and tangy. The Aguachiles Verde was amazing, loved my pescado taco, and the tostadas consentida. the Ceviche El Submarino was delicious and the Torres La Chaparitta was tasty and beautifully presented but we weren't all crazy about the base sauce. Everything was so fresh, tangy and light and healthy! The extra tostadas made it so easy to clean out our plates. The grilled octopus in the guacamole was amazing!! read more

I went on a Friday evening and it was pretty full upon arrival, we waited outside for about 5-10 mins before we got a table. I was so excited to order because I've been hearing such amazing things about this spot so I ordered a few different things to try. What really stood out to me was the freshness. Everything was amazing and you could tell that it was made with love. My absolute favorites were the Aguachilles, the oysters and the Vaso Chelada a beer with lemon and salt. This is such an authentic vibe. I loved the singer that came around, service was great and I'm genuinely looking forward to returning especially this summer. Try to arrive early because it gets busy! read more
Yum yum in my tum tum. Came around 4:50pm on a Sunday and still had to wait like 40 min for a group of 7. Even for a group of 3 or 2 it was like a 30 min wait Honestly I'm slowly realizing I don't love ceviche so my favorite dishes were the tacos (the craken specifically, delicious cheese w chewy octopus). Fish taco is perfect size, but there's like no seasoning on the fish so it desperately needs some sauce Aguachile (green in bowl) had lots of chunks of seafood. Vinegar-y Makabra (tostada) was spicyyy La exotica (tower) was the best of these 3 IMO. Has tuna. I thought the michelada went perfectly with the vinegar-y cold seafood dishes. There's 1 restroom. Service was quick and friendly. Our meal was quite expensive in the end so not sure I'd go back but I do want the craken again read more

A neighborhood gem. Everything was fresh and tasty. Service was friendly. They try their best when it gets busy. Chill vibe, makes you feel like you transported to another country. Liked: EL GOBERNADOR, THE CRAKEN, TROPICAL (spicy!!), the grilled shrimps! read more
Small restaurant by the 7train that offers fresh seafood. I've been here a few times and the food is always fresh and tasty. They're unique in terms of the food they specialize in- Mexican raw (cured in citrus juice) seafood. My favorite is the aguachiles mixtos negro from cold menu items. It's quite spicy, zesty and chock full of mixed seafood like fish, oyster, shrimp and octopus. For hot foods I enjoy their tacos. The fish taco is definitely best enjoyed fresh since it's battered and fried. I really enjoyed their one with beef and cheese- I can't remember the name. The service is has always been great but it always takes a while for the food to come out. If you're doing take out, I'd suggest ordering ahead. They've got seating and it's always busy. They are a vibe with loud music, margaritas and micheladas on the menu. read more

Everything was fresh and delicious. Steak tacos - delicious and fresh garnishing Octopus tacos - bomb The aguachiles was the highlight. Eat it with tostada chips or add to one of your tacos. Delicious meal. Great spot in Greenpoint. Lots of seating in the restaurant with a back patio as well and nice family vibes. Oh and the service was great! read more

Service is great however this place does have a waiting time on wkends approx 30 mins. It's not a big deal for me I do not mind the wait. To the food, some of the best seafood tacos I've had in the east coast hands down. If you haven't try or contemplating , we'll stop it, just go! It's worth it. read more

Approached with a line, on a spot been meaning to try. All I can say is three letters, WOW. Everything was spot on. The place is a vibe, had local mariachi players. Food and drinks were incredible. Every flavor was robust, seasoned to perfection with an array of sauces. Amazing spice. Great service. Safe to say, we will be back. read more

Good spot. Probably the best ceviche in New York. Was super packed and it lived to its hype. Def a must try. Service was so-so, my party was pressed about the tip. read more
I've been wanting to try Mariscos el Submarino because it's on the NYT Top 100 list. Went on a Friday night at about 8PM and was seated with no wait. The place is very no-frills. A nice casual spot to get delicious food. We ordered the mixto aguachile verde, ceviche el submarino, and 3 tacos. The taco el gobernador, the cracken, and the fish tacos. The thing to come here for is the aguachile, it was so fresh and delicious. Also really enjoyed the gobernador taco which was much bigger than the others. read more
