Shrimp Empanadas
Allie G.

I was very excited to try Mariscos Las Playitas because of its great reviews, but it only partially lived up to the hype. I was torn on what to order, but ended up choosing the Shrimp Empanadas. They came in two different portion sizes, and I got the smaller one (6 empanadas). Service was friendly and the food took about 10 minutes to be ready. The empanadas were tasty and flavorful, but far from the best I've had. They came with three sauces - a green salsa that was very spicy, a red salsa that had a good spice level but slightly sour aftertaste, and mayo. I ended up using the mayo and red salsa the most. The portion size was generous and the meal was very filling. Overall, I would return to order something different next time!

I paid $12 for a shrimp quesadilla that was really good. Their green sauce is pretty spicy, so be careful! I'm not sure if they have anything milder, but I enjoyed it. The service was pretty quick, and they seemed to stay busy. They are located in the same parking lot as McDonald's on Gerber Road near Power Inn.

Let me tell you that this is the best Mariscos that I have found in Sacramento. The flavor is good and they have a tv to watch the game.

The taste was right on point on the sauce super spicy but loved it. Was a little bit disappointed on the size of the shrimp. Would definitely go back.

Shrimp Gobernador, Fish Taco and shrimp empanada . Best tacos outside Baja .

Sacramento's Best Taco Truck secret. I ordered the Shrimp Governador and Fish tacos. They were delicious . Freshly made, tasty . Served with a side of finely shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes and thinly sliced red onions perfect compliments to the tacos .

We got the "special" buy one pound get the next pound free so we did shrimp. We got shrimp, sausage, corn, potatoes, and dungeness crab with the special blend in one bag. The hook and reel special blend was honestly pretty gross it was sweet, Smokey and not very buttery or salty at all. We asked for lemon pepper and extra butter to put inside(which was an extra charge) it made it a little better but I've definitely had better elsewhere. The garlic noodles were really good they had a soy sauce flavor, garlicky and cheesy. The price was pretty expensive considering I've spent $30 less elsewhere. Here at hook & reel I spent $96 The service was good. She was very kind and helpful but also wasn't very attentive. The restaurant and the bathrooms were very clean. Overall I wouldn't come back and I recommend going to Captain crab in Elk Grove it is so much better tasting and cheaper!!

I was crashing in Elk Grove at my friend Joe's for the week and was craving crawfish. He suggested…read moreCrab City so we called in to make a reservation for our party. It's a decently sized restaurant capable of accommodating at least 60 people. When we arrived, there was already a group of at least 20 people in the rear, and they were able to accommodate our group of 6 children and 6 adults. Although there was a bit of a wait for the food because they were short staffed, we had the happy hour menu to choose deals from and entertainment from the large group's karaoke to keep us busy in the meantime. When the food came out, I was surprised to find such tasty, and, large crawfish and shrimp on our table! The food was piping hot and the portions nice and big. I especially loved that the seafood came out in metal bowls instead of the plastic bags every other boil place serves their boils in. Extra points to them for being environmentally friendly! After a few bottles of soju, our group decided to partake in the free karaoke too, and we had a great time belting our hearts out. All in all, we loved the fair prices, delicious food, kid and family environment, and will definitely be back the next time we're in town. Thanks for the awesome night, Crab City!

10 Years of Marriage & a Great Family Dinner!…read more Last night, my wife Sokny and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary with our family, and we couldn't have asked for a better evening! We had dinner at Seafood House Quan Oc, and everyone definitely came hungry! Sokny and our daughter Skylie went with the seafood boil, and it was excellent! The seafood came with a delicious curry-style sauce that had so much flavor. Definitely one of the highlights of the meal! Our niece Maddie and youngest daughter Laila enjoyed the kids' chicken wings and fries, and Maddie also really liked the eggrolls. We shared an appetizer of crab cheese wontons, which were another hit. My mom had the garlic noodles, while I went with the fish fillet with rice and salad -- and it was all great! For drinks, Skylie had a Thai tea, while Sokny tried a Black Superman and a lemon drop. The lemon drop was unfortunately more lemonade than vodka, but hey... we still had a good laugh about it! Overall, the food was fantastic, but what made the night special was simply being together as a family. 10 years of marriage, lots of memories, and many more to come. Thank you to my beautiful wife for sharing this journey with me. I love you, Sokny!

Despite the many customers, my husband and I waited only a couple of minutes because the staff was quickly seating people as tables were cleared. Once we were seated, our server came over shortly to take our order. I ordered the shrimp noodles since they're currently available for a limited time, and the sha-bang bang shrimp since I don't ever remember seeing that on the menu before. The server quoted us 20-30 minutes for the food, but it took a fraction of that time for food to start coming out. The sha-bang bang shrimp was the only item that was close to 20 minutes, so I don't recommend ordering it if you're showing up starving. The shrimp noodles were definitely coated generously with flavor. With 5-6 decently-sized shrimp mixed in, I thought it was a reasonable price. It felt more like a dish you could make at home from a premade pack, but it still hit the spot for me. The sha-bang bang shrimp had a nice light deep-fried exterior, but what killed it for me was how much seasoning they threw on. I found myself rubbing some of the seasoning off on the table (they put a fresh table cover down for newly seated tables). If heavy seasoning isn't your style, I definitely recommend requesting light seasoning or maybe asking them to put it on the side. You can order an extra side of rice to balance it out too. Also, I didn't expect the side of sausage to be so big. We ended up taking most of it home because it was just so much protein on top of the shrimp we already ordered. I probably won't be returning here anytime soon, but the new dishes were decent. Also, our server gave us the perfect amount of attention. She checked on us now and then and made sure our water was full (boy, did we need water).

Unfortunately, after koving away three years ago and recently returning, we were really disappointed by how much the experience has changed. Now, each protein is brought out in separate bags, and potatoes, corn, and sausage are all charged separately. What used to feel like a fun, satisfying seafood boil now feels like every little item is being added on to increase the bill. On top of higher prices, the presentation of the boil bags was disappointing and just did not feel like the experience we remembered and loved. Its really sad to see how much this location has changed in only three years. We have a lot of good memories here, but unfortunately, we will not be coming back when we visit family in Sac again.

Pot stickers tasted worse than frozen pot stickers - which we eat frequently and love. Their version tasted like low-quality meat. Pot stickers had a cornstarch skirt, the skirt was soggy not crunchy. French fries tasted like frozen crinkle-cut - no crunch, under-salted. Spicy tuna(?) sushi. It was edible. My husband said it reminds him of grocery sushi. The best thing we had at Skyport was the fried calamari rings which were crunchy. I'm shocked at the prices they're charging for the quality of food they're serving. Even at a discounted price, it's simply not food I would spend money on. Service - a miss as well. The server did not give us any utensils or napkins. We asked after the 4th dish landed on our table. They are nice though! I don't know how anyone can label this fine dining when the food and service are such a miss. It's unfortunate because the space looks nice and outdoor seating would've been nice on a sunny day. Sorry again for a negative review. Hope they fix things one day!
