    Lobster ravioli
    Mark G.

    Very casual, small dining room. The tables are very small. We almost could not get all of our food on the table, The drinks are very good!! I ordered the Lobster Ravioli and we shared the seafood tower. Everything was very fresh and tasted great!

    Seafood tower (torres)

    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.

    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!

    If you love seafood and Mexican food this is the place. My son ordered the chicken fajitas they were full of flavor and a huge portion. I had a shrimp cocktail and a ceviche tostada they were the best I've had in KC. The service was also exceptional.

    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.

    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.

    Can't remember...some tequila cocktail

    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.

    Lots of variety in food. Plenty of options for non-seafood lovers. Great Drinks and daily specials. Small dining area thus longer waits.

    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+! They were poppin with every table occupied but we felt like the best customer! I relished in the flavors of the Shrimp Cocktail - mounds of shrimp!!

    Merritt M.

    The service was highly attentive and so kind. Some wanted to try a seafood boil and they did not disappoint. She loved it all! There were also lots of things that looked great and the plating of everything was very eye catching!

    Baja Tacos Lunch
    Marcus S.

    Wow, what a find. Stopped in here after seeing other yelpers talking about it. Some of the best tacos I've ever had. I had the Baja tacos (seafood) and my wife had the carnitas tacos. Both really good! Quaint place that has fun music playing.

    Molcajete caliente
    Ashley W.

    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.

    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!

    We chose Mariscos KC for a date night, wanting to try something new. When we walked into the…read morerestaurant we were kindly greeted & welcomed by staff, who let us know at the time it was open seating. Our server, Carlos, acknowledged us quickly and efficiently brought drinks and appetizers. He was kind, patient, an understanding as we needed some time to look over the cocktail and food menus - they are very expansive! The food options ranged from seafood boils, to birria ramen, fettuccini Alfredo and more. The variety makes this a great stop for an indecisive group who might want differ flavors. And everything was magnificent - we truly like everything. I think we found one of our new favorite restaurant!

It is far better than the usual Tex Mex food. A few years ago, there was a Marisco (Spanish for seafood) restaurant in Lawrence, but unfortunately it closed. The seating is comfortable, the dining room attractive, the music enjoyable, the service excellent, and the food far better than the Mexican food we are accustomed to in Lawrence, although we are beginning to get Latin restaurants including South American food in Lawrence. The full bar options at Mariscos KC include an admirable list of nonalcoholic mocktails, but oddly no nonalcoholic beers, not even Corona NA beer. I got the iced tea which was provided with four slices of lime. I enjoyed it. We got the Ceviche Starter with both shrimp and fish. We enjoyed them, although either alone would have been fine. Next time we will probably get only the fish. We also got the Aguachiles Verdes (with green sauce), which was spicier than the Ceviche. We liked it a lot. Both the Ceviche and the Aguachiles come with crispy tostadas. You can spread the seafood on the tostadas or break up the tostadas and spread them on the seafood. We also got the Fish Filet with Shrimp, which were excellent. For dessert, I got the Churro Bites, which was provided in a surprisingly large serving. I had half of the dessert packed to go. Although the restaurant's specialties are Mexican seafood, there also are Italian and Cajun pasta options available. We will try them the next time we are there. If you arrive driving west from Kansas City on Shawnee Drive, continue passed the intersection with Interstate 35. You will then pass a main intersection with traffic light at Goddard Street. The next traffic light after Goddard is at Nieman Rd. Take a left onto Nieman Rd. heading south. The restaurant will be on the left (east) side of the street. We will be back --- for sure.

From what I hear it used to be pretty lame and just used to serve golf course food like hot dogs and hamburgers and stuff. But it's actually got a full on bar an awesome outside patio and plenty of seats inside. We had a party of six at quickly turned to a party of eight and our server Wyatt could not be beat. I ended up getting to Philly cheese steak while we also got some firecracker shrimp and cheese curds for an appetizer. We are pretty far south into the Midwest for cheese curds but they did them up just right. I ended doing a little bit of a special order on my Philly cheese steak I subbed in lettuce and tomato for onion and green pepper which I like but they do not like me. Food came out exceptionally fast between the burgers and salads that were made they also make an absolutely fantastic Pizza. The pizza is Detroit style which means the sauce goes on top which is kind of weird but it does work out. The crust is like Pizza Hut crust where it's super thick and tasty little on the greasy side but that is all in the plan. To top it off we were able to ride our golf cart there and back which made the six Busch lights I had even more pleasurable. Relax I didn't drive the golf cart people. We like so much we went back a second night! Thanks Wyatt!
