I've been wanting to try Mariscos for a while and finally got to. It was amazing! Sooo much food in each portion and it was seasoned perfectly. Definitely a good spot to eat your weight in sea food! Our server Yasmin was so nice! read more

Service was very good, only drawback was the waiter's inability to understand some basic questions about their menu, for example Are the shrimp in the shrimp tacos fried? We were told that they were-they were not. The whole fried tilapia shown in a photo on the menu has shrimp on top of it. When it was served, there were no shrimp on it. When asked the waiter said it was an extra $5 for the shrimp. Odd in my opinion. The menu is extensive. Same with the cocktail menu. The ambience is average. It seems like a former fast food chain place converted into an independent restaurant. Prices are reasonable and food was tasty. read more

I was on the hunt for a good seafood boil and this place hit the mark! They are always busy which shows how good they are. The staff is friendly. There so many options on the menu. It was so yummy! read more

Mariscos KC - The seafood boil laid out with the sauce bowled up for dipping. - Seafood Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

A simple looking shop with not so simple flavors. This place has all the mariscos greats and does them well. There is also a large drink menu with good prices (heavy pours) and nonalcoholic options. We loved our ceviche, Cajun crab boil, and shrimp in a creamy sauce dishes and kept looking at what other tables ordered. Everything tasted fresh, well sauced, and well seasoned. Our waiter was kind and helpful. We can't wait to go back and try so much more. read more

This place has been on my list to try for a while, so I was excited when my buddy decided for us to go here after work. The setting is very casual. We started off with a Michelada flight, which was a nice sampler of three different styles. I then ordered a seafood tower (torres). It comes with a good variety of seafood, and the portion is very generous. The only downside is that the server was a little pushy to take our order, when we were trying to have some conversation instead of ordering within the first 2-5 minutes. Trying fresh seafood in the middle of the country can be a gamble, but this place does it well. I will have to come back with the wife and try some of their other options. read more

The Baja fish tacos and empanadas were great. Got an order of to go and can't wait to come back and have them fresh. Big menu but not overwhelming. Prices were good and the atmosphere is family friendly. read more

None of the food prices charged matched the menu - everything had a service charge added which was not disclosed up front, even when mentioning we'd never been there before. Food and service were fine. Undisclosed service charges are a deal breaker. Won't be back. read more

Wow! Mariscos offers a variety of food a bev options with kick. Me and a couple of girlfriends came and were pleasantly surprised not only by the quality of the food, but the price of it as well! We each had two cocktails and a crab boil each for under $100! Our server was kind and took excellent care of us! We sat at one of the patio tables outside, but the bar inside was adorable and the place, though small, was gorgeous. The hot is hot! I will be getting the medium seasoning on my boil next time LOL! read more

What an unexpected find on our Friday night search for a dinner option. We had some late afternoon errands & were hungry so we decided on finding something near the area we were in and through Yelp found Mariscos KC. Let's just say we are not hesitating to go back. We focused on the Cajun options with my husband getting the Shrimp Boil & I worked hard on the Crawfish Boil. We are not strangers to Seafood Boils and their base is the best we've ever had. The servers were smiling, friendly and efficient; especially Jenny who took great care of us. We like to sit at the bar especially a new place. It's a great to get to know the staff and how well a place runs and she is a great ambassador for the place. She insisted to come back and sit at the bar so she can take of us again Be sure to give this place a try and don't leave without trying their pineapple ice cream! Until next time. read more

I got a recommendation for Mariscos KC, I thought about it frequently. After finally trying it, it is without a doubt the best spot in Johnson County. Incredible. I can't wait to go back. Already planning my next order. Run, don't walk, and stay until they close the doors. Phenomenal! read more

Wow! We've talked about dining at Mariscos KC for a long time. This place is REALLY good! We were a party of 4, were greeted and seated immediately. Our server Carlos was REALLY helpful and SO nice. Drink menu is huge and everything we ordered was great. We ordered the spicy calamari, seafood tacos, birria ramen, the seafood boil, and the mojarra frita. All were great! read more

Flavors on the seafood boil was amazing. The seafood itself is good. The potatoes are soft and the corn was sweet. You can tell this is frozen seafood but we will definitely come back! read more

Mariscos KC - Ordered the seafood boil and crab boil. - Seafood Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

This review is for the new location in Shawnee, Kansas because they do not have their new location listed yet. My husband and I went for their soft opening several weeks ago. The space is nicely redone and is very clean and bright. We were greeted immediately and sat immediately, but it took a long time for the waitress to come over and take our order, even though there were many servers just standing around the bar. I ordered the fajitas and my husband ordered their shrimp fried rice. The fajitas were just average, the portions were good size. I did appreciate their homemade guacamole. My husband said that his shrimp fried rice was pretty good and he ordered extra shrimp as well. They have an extensive menu and a variety of alcohol alcoholic beverages. The food came out in a decent amount of time from someone from the kitchen. I just feel like their service is lacking and they never checked back upon needing anything except to bring the check. read more

Ok, so I've been wanting to try Marisocos for a while and we finally were able to make it one Friday night in March. It was a beautiful evening and it was quite crowded inside, so we opted to sit outside...and kinda froze as the evening progressed (would not be remiss if they added heaters outside). Even though it was so crowded, our waitress took the time to help us figure out drinks an food options. I wanted to try their cocktails...sadly I cannot remember what I ordered. I wanted something less sweet and it was what was recommended...unfortunately, I was not a fan. Not because it was a bad, but I freely admit to being a snob when it comes to cocktails. Even though it wasn't as sweet...still waaaaaay too sweet for me. That being said, the food was far and away much better. I loved the calamari strips! Something similar but different to the traditional calamari starters you get...and they came out piping hot!! So YAY! He ordered the chicken tacos (boring LOL) but loved them so of course, always a win! I had the Molcajete Caliente - OMG the broth was delicious (like trying to drink with a straw delicious) and everything was perfectly cooked. My only complaint was that it wasn't spicy enough. Of course that was easily remedied by the hot sauces on the table ;). They also provided tostadas with the Molcajete so I was in a very messy heaven. read more

Very quaint spot, with not just a comprehensive seafood menu of Mexican dishes but other entrees of Cajun and Asian origins. We sat past finishing our meal enjoying the music genres of The staff was very attentive and if service with a smile was their motto.. they'd get an A+!

wow! this place was great. we got some oysters (it was my first time) and they were so good!! we also ended up kind of eating family style so we got come mixed Ceviche Tostada and it was great! i just wish they had brought out more limes to go with them as i thought it could've had a little more flavor. we also got the Seafood Boil and it was really good! i wish it had more crab as it barely had any and it was mostly crawfish which we were all upset about because there was only like one piece of crab and some shrimp and had one corn and a couple of potatoes but for the most part it was mostly crawfish. the service was great! our server was very nice and quick and came to check on us quite often and was very nice. it wasn't that busy but it was a good place to eat with friends! they have tvs on around the place and had spanish songs playing so it was a good vibe. their menu offers everything! from seafood, to chicken tenders, wings, and a lot more! i will definitely be coming back. their michelada wasn't the greatest as it needed more lime or more clamato it was just missing something. but they have so many yummy drinks!!! for good prices and they even have good happy hour and daily specials. a must visit for seafood and drinks in the kc area! read more

This place totally shocked me. We went here because of the pics and when we drove up, admittedly, we pre judged. It's a kind of small diner looking place and we assumed the food couldn't really be as good as the pics showed. WRONG!! We've been here three times now and every time it totally blows us away. Everything is so fresh, amazingly seasoned, and really good sized portions. The molcajete with crab legs is probably the best you'll find in the metro area. The fajita meat was honestly so tender we were going to ask them what they do to marinade bc it was just soooo good. Not only is the food 10/10, but the service is incredible. We haven't run into one less than super friendly waiter and every one of them is beyond accommodating. Definitely do not miss this place. read more

Service was incredible! We had the crab boil and the seafood boil. Wow!! Fantastic. Just the right amount of spicy flavor

I am so glad that this place is close to my neighborhood, because it's going to be a place I'll be coming back for. Service was fantastic, our waitress helped us understand the menu. They have fantastic daily drink specials and happy hour. We tried the Campechanos aguachilie along with the fish ceviche. It was served with fresh tostadas to dip. The plates are enormous!!!! I wanted badly to try the cooked mussels or the cooked shrimp, but with our small party, there was no way that we could have even made a dent into everything. The fish is so fresh. The ingredients were green, vibrant, well flavored. They have several sauces in different heat levels as well. Such a good find. read more

The service was great and the seafood boil was awesome. Love the shrimp with heads on!!

Out hitting estate sales in Johnson County, when we looked up nearby restaurants and saw this described as Creole. I would call this more Mexican seafood. So no shrimp poboy. Still a nice find. On weekends they don't have a lunch menu. It was one of the most expensive lunch I have had in awhile. Came to $60.00 with 12.00 tip: $72.00. But the wife and I got great dishes with enough leftovers for a second meal. read more

This is a must-try place if you're a seafood lover. I've heard great reviews about Mariscos before trying them it lives up to the hype. I got a michelada with Dos Equis and it was delicious and a good drink with the seafood. We got the yellowfin tuna and baby octopus as a starter. The tuna was surprisingly very fresh and the additional vegetables made it even more refreshing. There was a bit too much sliced carrots though. The baby octopus is a favorite of mine due to its spicy sauce. It is very spicy but I couldn't stop eating it! I love the texture of octopus and the caramelized onions. We also tried the baja tacos which include fish, shrimp, and calamari. We were dissatisfied that it came with flour tortillas but the spicy mayo sauce was really good and complimented the seafood well. Lastly, we got the octopus tostada with mango habanero sauce. This sauce was delicious but very spicy! The octopus on this tostada was good as it was perfectly chewy and the avocado balanced it well. The service was great! Our waiter answered all of our questions and recommended great items. They played good banda music, too! Great place to try if you're in the Olathe area! read more

I've driven past this place for 3 years and finally tried it tonight for the last Friday in Lent. First, it was popping!!! The parking lot was packed and so was the restaurant, we got the last table and when we left there was quite a wait. I had the baja tacos, 1 fried fish, 1 calamari and 1 grilled shrimp. It was absolutely delicious. I try fish tacos everywhere I go and these might have just become my new favorite. At lunch you can get 3 for $10! My husband got the loaded fries with shrimp and he thought they were fine but he thinks he ordered wrong and would try something different next time. They had music playing that was energetic but not so loud we couldn't talk and the decor is really cute. I'm not sure what I expected but it wasn't that. read more

Lively atmosphere that was filled with friendly locals. I ordered the seafood tower with an addition of 4 oysters for $34. It was an enormous portion, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious!!

Wow, what a great experience! We came in from out of town and used Yelp to find a place just like this. It's got a cool modern design to it. It's not very big, but it also has some patio seating for warmer weather. The food was amazing - calamari strips were probably the best we've ever had! Everything else was fresh and delicious. We had fish tacos, the seafood tower, and even the shrimp boil was on point. I highly recommend you try the Michelada, it was fantastic.
