Mariscos La Tia - Lobster and shrimp ceviche - Seafood Near Me - Rosarito, BCN

Food was not good at all. Husband ordered pineapple tostada no flavor . Fish tacos were soggy from the inside . I ordered a lemonade . It seems like they only squeezed lemon in the water. The morcagetes were overpriced and not good at all. The only good thing is the tortillas . Very disappointing. Overpriced won't be coming back read more

Food: Honestly, probably the worst food I've ever had here in Rosarito. We ordered an orange juice and it had an alcohol taste, but they insisted that it didn't have alcohol in it. The water comes in Costco water bottles, not even in a cup. The butter on the seafood tasted like the butter you get at the movie theaters, so everything had a popcorn taste! The crab tasted like they cooked dead crab and served it. The beans tasted like water. This place incredibly nasty food it's honestly unbelievable. We left without touching our food. Service: Nothing too fancy and nothing too bad. We had to grab napkins and hot sauce from other tables. Ambiance: There's a nice ocean view, but there's not a lot of people (which makes sense because the food is bad). Live music. Overall: Don't be deceived by the pictures and videos on Instagram or by the front of the restaurant, this place is NASTY! Extremely disappointing. read more

Excellent experience dining today at Mariscos La Tia in Popotla! We purchase our seafood (fish, shrimp, and crab) from the nearby fish market, and this place exceeded our expectations when they deliciously prepared our meals! Talk about flavor!! We had them cook the crab with butter and garlic sauce, the shrimp with chile and lime, and our fish fried and "Al Ajillo". The best we've ever had. We definitely found what we've been looking for for years!! And our waitress, Rocio was on top of it, making sure we had refills, bringing homemade tortillas, and anything else we needed. She was great! We'll be back very soon! read more

This place was amazing, it wasn't a hole in the wall but the entire village was a hole in the wall. The lobster, shrimp, and beans were exceptional, what we except when we travel. The view was also great, large schools of pelicans fishing less than 100 ft from the open air window. The Uber from Rosarito was less than $10/- read more

Our first time visiting Popotla and we wanted a shrimp cocktail in this sea village, so we decided to try this place. DON'T EAT HERE, THE FOOD IS HORRIBLE! Alfredo (aka Bruce Lee) was a nice guy but that's about it. This rating doesn't reflect his service. The food was expensive and this little town is filthy service. read more

Service: 5 stars View: 5 stars Food: de-frickin-licious! Actually, service was 6/5 stars!! Sit on the back patio overlooking the ocean Changed from 5 stars to 4 stars when we got our bill -- the owner purposely uses the wrong exchange rate to make another 10%. Recommendation: pay in pesos!!! It's 10% cheaper!!! read more

Delicious food, excellent customer service, and affordable prices. Walked in with a party of four on Sunday evening at around 5:30 PM. A lot of seating available inside and outside of their restaurant; the gentlemen who welcomed us in told us that we could choose our table; if you want a lovely beach view or sunset sky I'd recommend outside seating! The only con with their outdoor seating is the extremely dim lighting (hence the 4 star), once the sun sets it's very dark. Upon choosing our outdoor seats their server greeted us and took our order promptly. As for their food, we ordered the shrimp empanadas which were a fried quesadilla with cheese, veggies, and shrimp inside; the shrimp tostadas, came with avocado and a lot of shrimp; a shrimp volcano in half a pineapple; and the order of sautéd shrimp with garlic and butter. We loved every single one of our plates! For our drinks, each of us had a glass bottles coca-cola. Our grand total came to be $930 pesos, that was about $51 US dollars. Affordable for the location, sunset view, and delicious food! read more

Rustic fishing village with more locals than tourists but felt welcome, safe and very happy we made the effort to check this place out amongst all the activity going on in the area. Next time we will arrive around noon to see all the fisherman returning with the catch of the day. The food is the main event here...can't wait to return!!! So many things we still would like to try! read more

2nd trip to Popotla...last time was Valentine's 2016...the place was packed. Packed with locals...not tourists...I wanted to try this place but there was at least 60 people in line...so we went to another place this time..veterans day weekend...no line!! woo hoo! we had a group of 14 people (4 families) and were seated on the ocean front patio immediately. they were gracious enough to split our bill 4 ways (and they got it all correct!).. We were give chips, salsa and ceviche as a our complementary starter!! it was delicious (and quite honestly more than enough food for me!) soon after drinks arrived...and not long after our entree's... service was stellar! food was probably some of the best sea food i have ever had! OMG..this is absolutely my spot...and i can't wait to return. Don't expect anything fancy...i'm happy they had running water in the restrooms. the staff works really hard to accommodate us non Spanish speakers...they are patient with us...you do the same for them. After diner make sure to take a walk down to the water ...perfect evening! read more

Been to Mariscos La Tia several times so a review is in order. I first discovered La Tia when buying fresh fish at the nearby beach fish market in the seaside village of Popotla a few clicks south of Rosarito. The entryway facade of the restaurant is nothing special but don't be deceived. The culinary rewards lie within those bright orange exterior walls. There is typically someone right outside the entrance to greet you and assist in parking your vehicle. Upon entry, our group was warmly welcomed and invited to choose our seating within the interior of the attractively decorated dining room, or enjoy the million dollar ocean view from the outside patio area. We immediately chose the patio, mainly for the fantastic ambiance and aforementioned ocean view, but additionally due to the generous application of the volume level by the enthusiastic DJ spinning traditional Mexican tunes inside. Our friendly waitress took our beverage orders and we immediately dug into the extensive offerings on the menu while munching on the house made salsa and chips. Seafood is the star of the show here as their name implies. I opted for the Volcán molcajete with Langosta and Camarón garnished with strips of Carne Asada. We didn't mind the reasonable wait for our food as the afternoon sunset glimmering over the crashing waves below us provided ample opportunity for appreciative conversation. Before long, our food arrived table-side and we eagerly attacked our steaming array of ocean raised deliciousness. Excellent hand-made tortillas of both harina (flour) and maize (corn) were generously provided along with some very good refried beans. My sizzling molcajete smelled fantastic and it's contents attractively assembled topped with fresh avocado slices. Once things cooled a bit, I first tried the langosta which was as tasty as one could hope for. The camarón were small in size, but flavorful as well as plentiful. The thinly-cut strips of carne asada draped over the side of the molcajete were cooked to medium and held great flavor. All of this was bathing in a wonderful chipotle-queso sauce which I eagerly mopped up with my flour tortillas. I highly recommend this dish as I have had it twice now here and look forward to having it a third time. I only wish the langosta was a bit larger as the quantity of camarón significantly overtook the amount of langosta in my molcajete. Our waitress returned several times to check on us and take orders for beverage refills. The restrooms were clean and fully stocked with the usual necessities. We all reluctantly left our table and commented about making a return visit to Mariscos La Tia before long. read more

Good quantity for low price, but lacks a little bit of taste in the food. Had the shrimp empanadas, wish they were more crunchy. The jaiba was okay, tasted like they dipped it on battered egg, wasn't so much of a fan read more

Food was good! Taco gobernador were delicious! Margaritas were too, we went as a big family everyone liked their food choice.

Where this is located is a very sketchy place. We tried it on a whim because the locals recommended it down by the beach... The food was all surprisingly good. They serve a complimentary plate of fish ceviche was was amazing!! The tortilla chips were perfect for it. The menu was long, and they had a lot to choose from. We ordered a basic shrimp cocktail and it was disappointing. The aguachiles were delicious! The Volcano Molcajete was fire!! Soooo good. I'd visit again just for that. We also had the shrimp empanadas to get us started and they were also excellent. read more

Simply put this place is amazing with an amazing view and even better service. Talk about getting more bang for your buck, and yes the food is just as great. It's a little to loud for me inside because of karaoke, but I enjoy eating on the patio either way. The environment is family and friend friendly. By far my favorite place to stop by for a bite when I'm in Popotla. read more

Good food, just small portions. Still a good spot to eat. Next to the ocean and if you get a table outside you get a good view as well. read more

Came here on a Sunday morning after a night of partying. We were a party of 17 and the accommodated us wonderfully. Everyone loved what they ordered! The aguachile de camarón was one of the best I've ever had. I also got the Camarones a la kukaracha, and they were incredible! I highly recommend coming here. Hands down one of my favorite places to eat in the world. read more

This was our first restaurant we tried in Rosarito and it was the best choice! It was easy to find if you use GPS. Do not worry if you pass it. It is so easy to make U turns in Rosarito and it is very common. And you only have to go a short distance to turn around. Obviously, I passed it a little bit! Drive slowly as it is an uneven dirt road. Parking is $50 pesos or $3USD. They close at 8 and we got there at 7 on a Saturday. I always feel bad doing that but they were welcoming and warm and seated us outside, right on the beach and we were just in time to watch the beautiful sunset. Bring a jacket as we visited in April. Definitely check the weather. Ramona was our server. She does not like seagulls! I now have the greatest memory of her chasing off a seagull and actually getting angry at it when it flew into the patio seating, onto a table that was being cleared and tried to take a tortilla chip. LOL She had that bird fly off so fast he dropped his chip and she snatched it right up and hurried off. I sense they've been through this before. Hahaha I had read a previous Yelp review that mentioned complimentary ceviche but we had chips, salsa, tiny crab legs and limes. The chips had a hint of lime and salt to them and were addicting. The crab was too much work and we were all about the chips and spicy salsa. Our entrees...Oh my stars! I ordered the Cameron Gratinados en crema cilantro. It was $200 pesos which was roughly $10.50 USD. It translates into Shrimp with a cheese and cilantro sauce. (Use the Google translate app!!!) I was concerned asking the chef to make a sauce at closing but wow!!! Fresh and creamy to perfection!!! I'm picky about sauces. I even took a class to make sauces and I appreciate them so much when well made! Maybe a little more cilantro for me but just my preference. I ate all the yummy rice, even the peppers in it that I normally would take out. The salad dressing was even flavorful and creamy. AND it came with warm, fresh flour tortillas so I made a taco too! I was very impressed and great choice of a Sprite with it! (No ice was brought or needed as it was very cold) Hubby got the shrimp ceviche which was four corn tostadas piled high with avocado on top; about $9 He loves ceviche and rated it a 9 plus. He'd never had it served with avocado on top before, so huge bonus that he loved! The avocado was perfectly ripe. He got a coke which was not as sugary as he expected. He's a huge fan of ice and never once mentioned he needed it. Each soda was $25 pesos or $1.35 USD. Now, don't forget! We ate here in April and the weather was 65 degrees at night so ice may be needed if warmer. Ramona was an excellent server. She spoke Spanish (as expected! Cuz Mexico!) but with pointing to the menu and my translation app we were all good! Even when I asked for a different chair for my grande/big booty! Don't forget to tip. It is customary to tip a typical 15%. We of course tipped more for the joyous smiles from everyone, especially so near to closing time. Total for our meal was around $23 USD and I couldn't finish mine! Huge portions! Also, if you don't bring pesos, that's on you. Don't forget the time it takes for the owner to exchange your currency to their own country's. Stop off at any currency exchange for pesos right before crossing the border. It literally takes 5 minutes and is free. Look for Cash-Mex if possible. We are so grateful for the delicious food and hospitality the entire staff provided us after a long four hour drive! The music was fun too with karaoke going on inside and again...THE SUNSET!!! read more

This place is one of those hidden gems in Baja California. Situated in a small fishing village of Popotla next to Baja Studios (where some of the Pirates of the Caribbean and Titanic was filmed). This is one of those areas frequented by mostly locals. They offer fresh local seafood and great view of the pacific. The best part is that not only the food is good and fresh, but very cheap as well. My lunch only cost $7 USD for a shrimp ceviche, whole fish, rice, beans, tortillas, chips, and salsa. It is much cheaper here than Puerto Nuevo due its less frequented by tourist. read more

One word description of this place: DELICIOUS! They start you off with complementary seasoned chips (hella tasty, perhaps tastiest chips ever) with salsa picante AND buttered crab legs! Who does that? Let me reiterate: COMPLEMENTARY BUTTERED CRAB LEGS. Oh snap. Enough said. I haven't even gotten to the food yet. My gf and I split a half dozen patas de mula, soaked those suckers in lime juice, dash of hot sauce and down they went. Fast. They tasted amazing! For the main course, we split a combo plate with lobster and shrimp. Damn fine mariscos. They were accompanied by perhaps the tastiest fried rice and re-fried beans ever! For our beverages, we both went with micheladas. Mine was rimed with shrimp, and hers was shrimp and tamarindo on a stick. AMAZING! 10/10. read more

Worst chips ever. Very stale and im sure from the night before and being that its already around 1 pm! read more

There are quite a few restaurants to choose from in the area but this one is my favorite. We come here with a full family of 13 and the service couldn't be better. I recommend the pargo zarandeado (smoked red snapper) and the aguachiles with chile chiltepin. The fish tacos are also great if you like something more traditional.The smoke fish takes a little longer to cook but the appetizers and drinks are always on time. Save some room for homemade flan. The patio has amazing ocean views but the restaurant does not have live bands like others do but their food quality is the best. side note: My family of 4 eats here for about $50 USD including beer (bucket of domestic Dos Equis). read more

Worst lobster I've ever had in Rosarito. Stale no seasoning and way overrated and overpriced! Will not go back!

So glad we took this YELP recommendation. Food was fabulous. Staff friendly. Views beautiful. Party of 9 spent $128. That included lobster and alcohol. read more

Best seafood in the area and of Popotla Lobster Village. We always order the combination shrimp , lobster and fish plate and always is delicious and fresh. We come here every year and every time we come down for our family reunion. The combination plate and a drink comes out to less than $20 so you can beat that , the service is sometimes a little bad but for the most part great. I give them 5 stars for the food and 4 stars for services because 4/5 times it's good service. Always love coming back to this place, also they have their own free parking so you don't have to go crazy looking for parking elsewhere in the Popotla Lobster Village. -- el major lugar en Popotla para comer langosta y mas limpio que Los otros restaurantes. read more

This restaurant is in a good location to enjoy ocean view while you eat, but food not really good at all. We visited this place on Sunday and order grilled fish in garlic sauce . and fish tacos. I found no taste in the food, not even the garlic that suppose to be in garlic sauce. But anyway I ate it. The problem came after when we got sick. I though that food may be good since it was pricy comparing to other restaurants in the same area, I believe the fish was spoiled, but the other people that ate tacos got stomach digestion problems too. So, be careful if you eat at this place. NOT RECOMENDED. read more

The food, the freshness of the seafood and the service was excellent! I couldn't decide what to pick from the menu. I opted for the Volcán Especial, it was an amazing choice! Just be ready to be really full, the portion is huge, def to be shared between 2-3 people. Must eat here! read more

We had a great time here at Mariscos La Tia. The service was great and the food was delicious!!!

We stopped by on 8-30-18 I guess it was the wrong day, it was our first time eating here, I asked for cold beer, 5 min later I was told wasn't cold enough, I asked for a glass of red wine, 5 min later they said they didn't have red, I gave up on the drink,so I order a botana with 3 items, 5 min later our waiter came to tell us that they were out of scallops, scallops were frozen, so we came to popotla to have fresh seafood, frozen stuff really!!! My wife had shrimp cocktail, I was very surprised to see that they used frozen cooked shrimp!!! I am a cook my self, I can tell fresh vs frozen, besides the cocktail had no flavor whatsoever, totally bland, the prices are cheap do, I don't really care about the price, I care about freshness and flavor.... So it was our first and last time eating here. read more

Don't come here. Do not waste your time. Food was horrible and so was the service. I asked what did the plate come with and was told rice, beans and salad and got only salad. When I asked where my rice and beans were I was brought cold beans only. Then I asked for my rice and was told there wasn't any. On top of that they had karaoke (with horrible singers) that was so loud that the lights were twitching in the place. I could go on and on about how bad the service was. Moral of the story this place was junk. read more

Pertty good, I went for the hard tacos that I saw on yelp by someone else, I was Expecting to eat deep fried tacos but pretty much their grilled crispy not bad but expected better. I must say that the singer Panchito was awesome he sang really professional and just sounded fantastic I will go back for some beer and just to listen to Panchito good atmosphere read more

Place sucks not suggested to eat food was a let down shrimp was gross I had a quesadilla and they had no cheese

Prices are very reasonable, especially the burritos and tacos. Don't order ceviche if you want to try other things on their menu, you get a complimentary order with tostadas. Their fish burrito is on the small side but cheap. The carne asada burrito is large with 2 flour tortillas. The Costa Azul shrimp plate is on the pricier side of their menu (290 pesos), but the shrimp are huge. The ocean view is a perfect compliment to what is overall a very reasonably priced, delicious meal. read more
