    Firstly, this is the worst seafood restaurant you can go!!! Do NOT go here ever. I wish I could leave a negative review because 1 star is way too high. This place is a horrible place of business with no customer service whatsoever and a clear disregard for the health and safety of their paying customers. My grandpa ordered the 7 Mares and nowhere on the menu does is mention that the soup has bones. Every spoonful of the broth was full of fish bones! He is blind and can barely see and nearly choked!!! We talked to the manager Alejandra and she was absolutely no help. She was incredibly rude and hostile for no reason. We didn't even want a refund all we were asking for was a different meal but she said that since he had barely eaten some of the broth already that there was nothing that could be done. Then she made a weird comment saying that we should have asked but why would there be a soup full of fish bones??? She said that we have to ask at any restaurant if there are bones but any good restaurant would have let their customers know that they have bones in their food. No signs, no fine print on the menu, no warnings, the waitress could have even told us that there are bones when we ordered, but nothing. We asked for the owner Martin but apparently he was too busy to come and help a problem in his restaurant but obviously customer service is not a priority for Martin. It's obvious that this is a clear reflection of Martin and his business practices. I wouldn't be surprised if both of his locations get shut down soon. Shady place.

    Camarón zarandeados

    The best zarandeados I have ever had. I love the shrimp zarandeados with an oil base salsa (spicy), authentic rice and beans. It's always busy and the food does take a little to cute but it's worth the wait. It's a busy place and sometimes they have long wait times. Their martinadas are amazing too (it's a small corona beer with margarita)

    How can I give this place less than 5 starts for their specialty dish Pescado Saraendado. This place has to have the best Sarandeado in the area. If you find a better place in LA please let me know. The food here is solidly good. We always start with a dozen of oysters. We have these with some lime, salt y que no falte la salsa Guichol. This time we also ordered a seafood molcajete. This did not disappoint. It was nice to have something to snack on before the master piece arrived We usually order a pound per person for the Sarandeado. This comes with rice, beans, tortillas an salsa for everyone in your party. The drinks here are also good. I usually get the Michelada with a Victoria but today I had a Martinada. I thought it was a house martini , but it's actually a margarita with a Coronita. If you come here ins the summer make sure you ask for extra ice. This place does not have a AC. Be prepared to wait for your food items. You get chips and a spicy Pico de Gallo salsa to start. Not the best service, but the food is good and well priced.

    I just simply love this place, it always hits the spot. I've been visiting Mariscos Martin since I was a kid and the quality of the food and service has never downgraded. The unlimited warm chips and fresh salsa is a nice compliment to the amazing food. My go-to is always the Garlic Fish Filet, which is always fresh, flaky and perfectly cooked and the portions are huge (you get 2 filets with your order!) I will always recommend this place 100%

    Mojarra frita!!

    I am giving this place 3.5 stars. If this place would up their game with great service, they would have gotten the 5 stars from me. The food is so worth the bad service. It is hard to find a good marisco place that I can say that about. The ceviche de camaron was fresh, right amount of seasonings, onions, tomatoes and cilantro. The limonada is freshly squeeze right amount of tartness and sweet. My friend had the mojarra frita and said was delicious. Tip: call ahead and get your name in. There is a line of people waiting to be seated. Also this place is cash only. The do have an ATM machine but if you want to avoid fees and you can use that for a tip.

    Fonda Don Chon is an authentic Mexican restaurant located in Shopper Ln. In Covina near the…read moredowntown. Parking lot across the restaurant. You can park in the additional parking spots all around Shopper Ln. I have been a customer for many years and tried many delicious dishes. They serve a traditional Mexican open buffet at certain times. The waiting line is expected, but don't feel discouraged because it moves fast. The decor is vibrant enriched with colorful murals. The staff are very welcoming and genuinely warm. The restaurant has cozy and inviting ambience. Outdoor and indoor seating are available. I placed an online order for pickup. It was fast and convenient since I had friends coming for dinner. I ordered the following: - Burrito Panchon 5/5 Stuffed with carnita, beans and rice, served with cream, beans and guacamole. Huge portion! You can choose your protein. - Fajitas Cielo Mar Y Tierra 5/5 Marinated beef, shrimp, chicken. It served with sauteed bell peppers tomatoes and onions, rice, guacamole, beans and pico de gallo. It was smoky, savory and flavorful. - Vegetarian Enchiladas 5/5 Corn tortillas stuffed with bell pepper, corn, onion, carrot, cilantro, squash, and topped with a combination of cream and jack cheese. The portion was enormous. It was a very flavorful and savory. - Carna Asada 5/5 Flap meat marinated with homemade adobo. It served with pico de gallo, rice & guacamole. The meat was juicy and tender. It was such a delicious dish. - Empanadas 5/5 I chose chicken empanadas. It served with salad. The empanadas was crispy from outside and very flavorful. - Ensalada de Nopales 5/5 Diced cactus mixed with tomatoes, onion, lime, and cilantro. - Taquitos 5/5 It was crispy from outside with savory and juicy filling. - Taco de Cameron , taco de Pescado & taco de Birria 5/5 They were savory, juicy and delicious. - Beans 5/5 Topped with melted cheese, really delicious - Large Bionico Bowl 5/5 Fresh fruits like topped strawberries, mango, cantaloupe, banana, papaya, blueberries, apples, pineapple topped with granola and shaved coconut. It was rich, creamy. The fruits were fresh and sweet. It was heavenly! Every box was wrapped with layers of plastic wrap perfectly. I got a bag full of different types of salsa with my order and another bag with tortilla chips. The food portions were very generous. Every dish reflected authenticity and deliciousness. Fonda Don Chon has high quality, flavorful and delicious food. It is my FAVORITE MEXICAN RESTAURANT.

    I'm sorry, but I wanted to like this place. Let's start with…read morethe drink. -Cafe De Olla. I don't know, I've had it at quite a few places. Even made it myself. Just wasn't a fan of theirs. Now the food.... I had the Chon's Breakfast Comal. The chorizo was ok. Lacked quite a bit of flavor. Potatoes tasted kinda like they were boiled and then finished in a sauce, then plated. The bell peppers and onions were fantastic. A lot. But they were cooked well. Over easy eggs were decent, despite one of them being cooked all the way through. Comal was perfect temperature. But insanely greasy (which is expected from chorizo). Rice. Eh... Rice is rice. Wasn't bad. But was all "Oh my goodness this is amazing." Beans tasted like the refried Rosarita's can. Just topped with cheese. The salsa. It was pretty good. The 1st time. Until I found a hair. Then I was given a 2nd one. And when I decided to eat it, it was no good. It was starting to spoil. I realized this once I put it on a bite I was about to take and immediately put it in my food i was about to chew in my napkin. After about 15 minutes when my server finally came by, I told her of the situation. She said "I'll go check." Then disappeared. Someone else gave me the check, and then someone else brought the receipt. The initial server didn't pop up until I was getting up to walk out. So no manager interaction. No "we'll comp your coffee." Just a "Sorry you didn't like it." As I walked out. Ambiance is cool, but some table placement doesn't make sense. That needs to be addressed. Will I come back here? I don't know. Maybe. Maybe not. But I'm talking like 80 no /20 yea. So I guess we'll see.. So I'm giving this place 1 star. I'm sorry, but this is my opinion based on my 1st experience here. Maybe it'll be better. We'll see....
