Michelada not worth the price
Mayra M.

This was my first time coming here, and I wanted to try a new Mariscos spot. I regret it. I originally wanted camarones a la Diabla, which is not on the menu. Then I asked for camarones a la chucaracha but it doesn't come with rice is more like an appetizer didn't want that. So I just ended up getting the cocktail De camarones. First impressions count this doesn't look too good beside that has no flavor whatsoever completely disappointed. The michelada so not worth it.

We were a party of 5, and I got to sample a little bit from everyone's plate. We got a dozen oysters, aguachiles with shrimp and scallops, mojarra, rib eye steak, shrimp ceviche, and guacamole. Everything was delicious! The only complaints I had were that the music was too loud and they overcharged me $100. The staff is helpful and kind.

The place is very bright makes you feel alive after a really bad hangover lol ! We felt very welcomed the customer service provided by Sofia was great! We got served right away and after ordering food we received our order after 15mins yes. The tostada mixta was sweet and had a delicious tangy taste we enjoyed every bite! I also ordered the camaron molcajete super delicious and fresh ! I highly recommend this place ! El lugar es muy luminoso y te hace sentir vivo después de una resaca muy fuerte jajaja. Nos sentimos muy bienvenidos, el servicio al cliente brindado por Sofía fue excelente. Nos atendieron de inmediato y después de pedir comida recibimos nuestro pedido después de 15 minutos, sí. ¡La tostada mixta era dulce y tenía un delicioso sabor picante que disfrutamos cada bocado! ¡También pedí el molcajete de camarón súper delicioso y fresco! Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar !

$12.00 for this ????

Too expensive. Down the road at a comparable establishment tacos are $1.50 cheaper of the same size. Micheladas are $12.00!!! and they don't even have shrimps in it. Leave your card at home. Cash Only.

Restaurant is a descent size and they have a parking lot and available parking in the street. Our waitress was very nice and on top of it. After placing our order food came out pretty quick but after reading on the hyped reviews on the food I was not impressed. The tostada de Jaiba did taste better than it looked but still lacked flavor along with the Ceviche de Pescado (tasted too fishy) Ceviche de Camaron was good. The Coctel de Camaron was better after adding ketchup in it which the server (not waitress) looked bothered when I asked for ketchup. I hate feeling like I insult ppls food when I have to add more S&P or anything to give it more flavor but if I'm the one paying for it. Anyway.... the coctel was ok. Taco de Marlin was a win. All in all I wasn't impressed but to each there own. If you're a seafood fan like I am I say give it a try.

Been a big fan of El Viejon since their original location was basically just a tent. The service here is always good. Food portions are always big. The tostadas they give beforehand with the mustard are great too! I really like this new location to take my brother to when he gets off of school. It's spacious and they have tvs. Can't wait to come back again.

Maleficio

Callo de acha always fresh, aguachiles are delicious and the limonada mineral preparada (lemonade with mineral/club soda ice blended) just hits the spot! Always go for either the Maleficio (pictured the full dish don't mind my husbands half devoured Chalupa) or the Chalupa which is same except it also has pulpo (octopus), abulon, cucumber, and tomato Can't go wrong either one... if you love callo de acha like me, call ahead to make sure they have it so you don't get disappointed when you try to order and they're out (happens often but not often enough that would prevent me from coming, I just call first)

The food is pretty authentic I like this location better than the one on Atlantic. The vibe is a little cartel-ish but the food is worth it

5/5 Stars - Alberto is the real MVP at Stinkin' Crawfish!…read more We've been coming to Stinkin' Crawfish for a while now, and every time feels like coming home--especially when Alberto is our server. This guy consistently goes above and beyond, and our most recent visit was no exception. What really sets Alberto apart is how he anticipates everything. He checked on our spice tolerance mid-boil to make sure it wasn't overwhelming, and he kept the wet wipes and extra lemon coming without us lifting a finger. The food was phenomenal as always but Alberto's energy and genuine care elevated the whole experience. He's friendly, efficient, funny without being over-the-top, and clearly passionate about making sure everyone leaves happy and stuffed. If you're at any Stinkin' Crawfish location and see Alberto on the floor, request him--you won't regret it. Thanks again, Alberto--you're the reason we keep coming back! Highly recommend--food is , but service like this is priceless.

Looks clean and decent. I have never been there so I mentioned it to our server but he really didn't give us a welcoming or explained how it worked. I ordered all 3 types of shrimp corn and potatoes along with rice. The food was DELICIOUS. So much flavor we got the stinking sauce mild spice. It was sooooo good. Warning it's extremely heavy a lot of butter and garlic. I was so full and happy. To top it off came with a free dessert fried Oreo and ice cream. Can't wait to come back.

She patiently took all our orders with a cheerful attitude and made sure everything was correct. The food was good, came out in a timely manner, and Cindy checked on us regularly to see if we needed anything else. Toward the end of the meal, she kindly split the check per couple, which we really appreciated. The best part? We were surprised with fried Oreos and ice cream on the house--such an unexpected and delicious treat! Then, to top it off, the manager came by and offered us a second round of fried Oreos and ice cream, also on the house. How cool is that? Nice place, good food, and excellent service. Highly recommend!

Respectably tasty and worthy of a bib. The biggest difference between this spot and its…read morecompetitors? The sauce in the bag felt a bit... watered down like it went for a swim before meeting the seafood. For a party of four, we ordered: SHRIMP LOVER COMBO, LOBSTER ROLL, SIDE OF RICE, BASKET OF SEASONED FRIES, AND MAD DOG XXX SAUCE on the side. Portion-wise, we left comfortably full and only slightly questioning our life choices. The Shrimp Lover Combo can't be modified. We chose Stinkin' Special and Spicy, which came with a plastic glove so you can dig in like a civilized gremlin. The Stinkin' Special was a generous blasts of Old Bay and enough garlic to ward off vampires. The Mad Dog sauce wasn't shock-your-soul spicy, but it definitely lingered. I was still feeling its friendly burn hours later and well into the evening. The LOBSTER ROLLL was tasty but fleeting. It's one of those dishes that makes you realize the meal is almost over right when you're hitting peak satisfaction. A little emotional damage there. We wrapped it all up with deep-fried Oreos and ice cream, which was an instant win. Sweet, cooling relief after all that heat. Tip: Sign up to their text newsletter at the restaurant and enjoy a free basket of fries. BTW, their website is down. :(

came here for the 2 lbs for $25 seafood boil! really good deal for sharing with someone else…read more we ordered the: * shrimp seafood boil - ordered with full house sauce, mild spice, and added white rice. i typically get spiced out easily and, mild wasn't too spicy. will try medium spice next time. * cajun fries - pretty tasty and had a nice crunch. came with chipotle mayo and ketchup. * soju - our server let us know about the buy 2 soju and get 1 free deal, so we got peach, green grape, and plum. it was good enough for 4 people. we came on a tuesday night and there was no wait. they gave us gloves and bibs. plenty of seating available. clean bathroom.

I came here for 2 reasons: 2lbs for $20 and $1 soju shots. Pirate's Kitchen did not disappoint!…read more 2lbs of head-on shrimp for $20 is a great deal for seafood boils in this area. It;s also just a pretty good quality seafood boil as well. The shrimp was well cooked, and everything was flavorful but not salty. I do think that the deal is now $25 for 2lbs, but that is still cheaper than most places around. I added sausage, corn, and potatoes, and my party of two was full. I also super enjoy the $1 shots of soju. It's 6 shots max per person, but that puts you at a nice buzz for your meal. You can also opt for their Buy 2 Bottles Get The 3rd Bottle Free deal, which would be nice if you have a bigger party.  The service here was super nice, and there wasn't a long wait at all. I would highly recommend this spot if you want to have a good time and eat good food. It will be messy, but it'll be worth it!
