    Tostada Mixta

    i understand inflation but jesus what is this. I haven't been here in a couple months but I ordered a tostada mixta that used to be amazing and now the portion was ridiculously small and tasted gross. probably never coming back specially for the new price and less food ?

    I came in wanting a healthy juice & seafood cocktail. Bruv, the hype is real! From the moment that I stepped in, I was warmly welcomed. Immediately, I was shocked by just how clean, organized, & beautifullu painted it is inside. That was just the start of my visit. Then, my food came & oh man, it is soooo good! Seriously, I know that I'm going to crave this again. 10/10! I will definitely come back & recommend this place 100%! =^_^=

    Tilting the plate for any sign of sauce but instead it's as dry as the Sahara desert

    This was my fam's go to spot for ceviche, however after our experience today, I sadly announce that we have decided to never come back here again. Back story on what happened, my sister called in for her usual cooked shrimp tostadas and a few other items. Upon coming back home, we notice that the shrimp was raw so she called back telling them that she had originally asked for cooked shrimp not raw. They blamed it on my sister saying that they had "curtido" (raw in Spanish) written for the order but my sister had actually asked for "cocido" (cooked) ones. They eventually told her to go back to the store so that they can replace them, but when my sister got there, they didn't even apologize and looked upset. We got back home for the second time, and we notice that not only was some of the shrimp still raw but they didn't even add any sauce!!! Like what the hell is ceviche without the sauce?? It's like asking for a boba milk tea without the tea lol. Moral of the story: if you're gonna offer your customers options for raw or cooked shrimp, please do so. Not everyone wants to play Russian roulette for parasites from eating raw shrimp...

    I was in the Baldwin Park area waiting for my car to finish from a shop and as I was scrolling through yelp found this really small mom and pop hole in the wall shop. I was intrigued by its various reviews on cheap ceviche and they had everything from mexican snacks, milk shakes, raspados, and bebidas. They even make tostilocos- if you haven't tried it- you should! It's definitely a really small shop where you walk in and order and just wait outside until it's ready- took about 15-20 minutes for my order. Be patient with them as even though it looks like there's not a lot of people waiting- people can also make phone orders I believe. I just got a tostada mixta- came with a box of mixed seafood ceviche and three tostadas on the side. Salt, tapatio packets and lime were provided and at 8.99 for this I would say it was delicious and fresh and I would come back here for further cravings. Glad I stopped by and took a chance on this gem. May not look like much but give them a try!

    Freshest ceviche. Really delicious. They could be a bit more generous with salsa, condiments, and crackers.

Service: About a 3.0-2.5. 2 servers, nice, but for being such a small place, the service was slow. I get it, they are young and I am sure the owners get comfortable with the staus quo. If they trained them, or hired so.eone with a more sense of urgency, this food joint would rock! Ambiance: A small, strip-mall style hole in the wall. We gave this local place a try and it was woth the trip. Very common 4 top tables with 2 pull-chairs and booth seating along the walls. Over all, we would go back. The pricing was par for the industry, wife and I had the above listed items and fountain drinks. The total was $85. This location is above average due to the freshness of their seafood. Oh, and they brought out dessert with our check. Ice cream and a bińet.

I got their lunch plate with the peeled shrimp and it was BOMB. The flavors was the right amount of spice. Husband got their fish and chips and devour it ALL. Their bag boils are just as delicious. Service was great every time we went. They are fast and courteous. Food comes out in a timely manner. They checked on us several times. No complaints to their service. Ambiance, the restaurant is a little small so sometimes they can have a wait. when we know they are busy we always would order to go. Honestly, our GO TO place. Would highly recommend.

    I finally tried this place and unfortunately I was disappointed…read more When I went in, the servers were all in the Kitchen. Then a server came out and seated us. We ordered after 10 minutes. I was very hungry and thought having tacos and ceviche and shrimp cocktail should be something quick. But the order took more than 20 mins to come out and I had to follow up with them. There were only 3 tables at the time and each table is just with one or two customers. There two servers total, but it seems the person who ordered for me also went to cook. I am not sure if this is one time situation where the Chef is not working that day? Because it honestly took too long to bring the food out when it's not busy at all. The most disappointing part is that after all this waiting, the tacos were toooo salty. We ordered grilled fish and grilled shrimp tacos. There were these blacks stuff sticking to the fish and shrimp, it's those black stuff that you get from burnt pan. The shrimp cocktail and ceviche was okay. Nothing amazing but I just wondered why couldn't they bring these two dish out first because it should be something already premade?? I would not come back after this experience. But I would suspect the management more the employees working there because I think they need more training. I also wonder if it's a substitute Chef or a new Chef was working that day?? This happened on Saturday the Thanksgiving weekend. Their ambiance is cute but feels old.

    I was in the mood for seafood, when my buddy said, "Hey I got a place we can go in La Puente." I…read moresaid, "La Puente?!? (With a frown and clear doubt) He replied, "Bro, trust me, I used to come here with so and so and it was good.!" I said, "Really?, ok let's try this out." I was still full of speculation and hesitant. I then asked, "Where is this at? What street?" He replied "off Amar." I said "Amar?!" (That made it even worse...) LOL!!! For those of you who haven't ventured off into "No Man's land" of La Puente, Amar Rd., I will just say this ... you better know your street smarts. To my surprise we arrived and I said, "dude I have driven past this location many times" (I was still not impressed.) He said, "Bro, let me order, I got this!" I said ok. Since he knows I am a true die hard Yelper, I stood by and observed everything. To my surprise, the service was great. The fellas cooking definitely knew what they were doing and the food was very delicious and fresh. If you ever want to experience a fish market and restaurant that has a feel, sound and taste of Mexico. Then there is no need to drive 3 hours to the border. Just drive East, past the 605 Freeway or North 605 or wherever you're coming from... Just put it on your Navigation App. LOL!!! Just come with someone who knows true Mexican Costal Style Sea Food. You won't regret it. Just make sure your head is on a swivel in La Puente! LOL!!!
