So I will say the altar of this place is just horrid lol they really need to fix this place up because it looks like a beat down place. So the place inside though is really big and when we arrive, the hostess is very nice and they did see us right away. Now the reason I put maybe for recommending this place is because it's not everyone's cup of tea I went just because I was craving a good shrimp cocktail and they told me that this place made a really good one. As you can see in my videos, it's very loud there because of the music that is playing live. Also, that type of music is not always my taste, but it actually was pretty nice and I didn't enjoy it. The pricing was a little higher there for the location in my opinion. But I will say the shrimp cocktail was really good and they hit close to home in Mexico for taste. The drinks were typical nothing special about them in my opinion. We did order a sushi roll and it was OK for me. It was kind of disappointed that they didn't have any good soy sauces for it or anything like that. If I went back, it would just be again for the drink specials and the shrimp cocktail. read more

So many menu options! This little hidden gym had "American Idol" style karaoke show complete with judges! Was absolutely entertaining! Drinks were strong and the Bar Tender, Cindy made sure I was attended to even though she was slammed! I had the Ostiones Chapitos, 12 raw oysters served with your choice of red or green aguachiles (ceviche style Octopus and shrimp) on top wla side of spicy cocktail sauce & lime wedges. It was absolutely bountiful and delicious! I'll be back to explore more on the menu! read more

I absolutely love this place! The Banda makes the environment so much better, it's really loud though, so if you going to this place to have conversations, this is not the place to go. The sushi was decent, not my favorite (3/5 for both) I've had better, but worth a try, really just depends on what you like. I would not go back for sushi, but the parrillada was really good and the caldo they start you off with was amazing, great flavor and nice seafood kick to it. I will definitely be going back to try their seafood soup based dishes. The server was really nice, considering it was really loud he was super accommodating and got our food out fairly quickly. Overall, such a wonderful experience and I cannot wait to go back!!! read more

Ximena fue una excelente mesera. The food was delicious. The sushi and crab legs were good. The micheladas were a hit.

Tucked back behind pappasitos on 35 - skip pappasitos and keep going to searenias. I had to get the whole fried fish since it reminds me of travels to the Caribbean and Mexico. I also had the pulpo tostada (no picture) but another mouth worthy choice. Now the pina colada.....suburb! Delicious! Good food and drinks and glad the menu had photos because many of the staff don't speak English which is fine. I do my best communicating but the pictures helped! read more

Another addition to the Gabriela's Group portfolio brings yet another lackluster dining establishment. Helmed by Gabriela Bucio aka DJ Gabby Got It aka the namesake figure behind Gabriela's aka co-founder of Taquero Mucho, Revival Coffee, Mala Vida, and Mala Santa, Gabby's team focuses on seafood and sushi in their latest venture. My initial impression upon arrival was far from favorable. The absence of a proper hostess stand, coupled with the seedy ambiance and deafening noise level, left much to be desired. The hostess who seated us lacked proficiency in English, necessitating redirection to another hostess who accommodated our request for outdoor seating to escape the chaos. Once seated, we received a physical menu that was sticky, torn, and barely hanging onto the binding. To start, we ordered the Shrimp Ceviche which was hefty as a portion, but I approached each bite with caution, as the food quality looked risky.... As for my entree, I stuck with something cooked and got the Mojarra Frita, a whole fried crispy fish, which actually was amazing. Note: Post-meal, I discovered a live banda performs every Thursday through Sunday from 6 PM onwards read more

I was really looking forward to trying Seareinas, especially after hearing great things from a friend about their micheladas. Sadly, my experience didn't live up to the hype. Visited Seareinas today just before 5 PM and was pretty disappointed. There was no host at the stand when we walked in... Instead, several employees were gathered around the bar and seemed a bit confused when we entered. Shortly, someone did greet us and offered us a choice between a booth or high-top, which was appreciated. Everything went downhill after we were seated. Our server, Roxana A., was noticeably inattentive and frankly came off as disinterested and rude. After dropping off waters, she disappeared for 10+ minutes. We saw her at the bar area, seemingly socializing and even playing with a child, so we had to flag down another server just to place our order. We ordered a half-dozen oysters and one michelada pop (we were originally planning to get one each, but the overall vibe made us reconsider). The oysters were okay -- not bad, but nothing special. Every time Roxana came to the table, she said nothing -- just a few hums -- and to be clear, this was not a language barrier issue, as my friend is Hispanic and ordered in Spanish. We ordered a half-dozen oysters and one michelada pop. The oysters were okay, nothing special but the experience made us not want to stay longer. We had to flag Roxana down for the check, once again. Roxana brought the check without a word, then sat down on her phone near the host stand (that no one was standing at still) for a good 5 minutes. As we left, no goodbye or acknowledgment -- just a hostess taking selfies on Snapchat. This experience was disappointing, especially since I just learned that this is part of the Gabriela's Group, which I usually love. I've had consistently great experiences and have celebrated birthdays and other events at Gabriela's, so this really surprised me -- unfortunately, it'll be my first and last visit to Seareinas. read more

Amazing food. Decor is very nice, really sets the vibe, love all of the neon signs around the restaurant. Great spot for families. Highly recommend the tostada de jaiba and camarones zarandeados. The sushi rolls are to die for too! The only thing that always misses with this place is the service. Terrible. They do the bare minimum. Make sure you're ready to order everything you need when the server comes, or you will staying waiting a long time for them to come back and check on you. We got added an automatic 20% gratuity on a party of 3 adults and 1 child. read more

Here on a Sunday night 7pm and the music is WAY to fucking loud to point you cant have a conversation. Food is aight.

Very cool vibes and can get loud with the band, but can be a fun time! The sushi was surprisingly good and the drinks were a bit sweet and pricey. Overall it's a cool place to check out! read more

Food was delicious. A little too loud for my taste though. Service was good as well.

Buen ambiente , buena música , la comida buena , lástima la bar tender , el peor servicio que he recibido , deberían cambiar

Food: 4 / 5 Service: 3 / 5 Cleanliness: 3.5 / 5 Parking: 4 / 5 Price: 3.75 / 5 Food wasn't amazing but it was good. We definitely loved the affordable drinks, calamari, and ceviche! We also had a sushi roll but like I said, it wasn't mind blowing. Service for us was meh. It took over 30-45 minutes for them to check on our food after we first ordered. We seriously thought they were still preparing the food but apparently they forgot to press "send/enter" so we had to wait an additional 20-30 minutes for our food to finally prepare. Cleanliness: The tables and menus were very sticky and I had to go back to the bathroom often to wash my hands. Inside didn't seem extremely organized as well. Inside the venue it was VERY loud and the performers moved around a lot. It was very difficult for my girlfriend and I to talk. Don't get me wrong, I LOVED the vibe and I LOVE learning and experiencing new culture, but my ears were hurting towards the end. Maybe offer customers ear plugs so we don't damage our ears would be a nice bonus. Pricing was a bit high. Not affordable outside of the drinks. Definitely check it out but don't have high expectations. I think they are properly rated on Yelp as of this review (3.5 / 5) - TikTok/YouTube: @gillynova read more

Shame on ya'll for not giving this place at least a 4! So my friend and I are in Austin and she recommended a place she's been to that has excellent micheladas! And if you follow my posts, I think I add michelada's everywhere I can find them. So I've always wanted to try the REAL ones with the shrimp and other stuff... THIS place had one with CEVICHE, yes I said it, CEVICHE on top! Wow! It was amazing and delicious. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend coming here again for that drink/food. I didn't try the sushi though, no offense, but I dunno if I would try the sushi, but I gotta give it up to them for trying! Great spot! read more

We got here and the place was going to close early, however they decided to seat us anyway. We were a party of 4 and the food did not disappoint. The waiter was great in assisting us and helping each of us order a dish that we would truly be satisfied with, The decor inside was simply so pretty! A spot where you could take a ton of cute instagram photos. From the sushi to the nachos to the ceviche and the drinks! Everything was so delicious I would definitely try this spot again. The only disappointment we had were some drinks and menu items were unavailable. But again we went right before closing time so I didn't dock their star based off of that. If you are in Austin take a trip to this spot! You will love everything about it! The food ambiance and overall vibe of the staff! read more

Went here for National Margarita Day and while the marg was strong and delicious, service was far from. Kitchen was closed when we arrived but we just went for drinks so that was fine. Place was definitely packed out and they had karaoke going on as well. Would possibly return for a drink special and would hopefully receive better service second time around. read more

Parking was miserable. Took me thirty minutes to find somewhere to park, and even that was questionable parking. Music was way too loud. We had to leave because my 8 year old son started crying because it hurt his ears so much. The noise level in the restaurant was louder than a night club, but the building's acoustics made it 10x worse. I literally had to resort to texting the other members of my party because I couldn't hear anything except loud live music. For what I had, it was mediocre. The chips and queso were standard, very mid. The oysters didn't taste all that great either. We ended up abandoning our group with our child before we could order, which it had been 30-45 minutes and we never even had an opportunity to order anything else outside of water and appetizers. Never again. read more

Super fun place. Service is very good. Live music is a lot of fun. Food is delicious. Appetizers: Bacon Poppers Combo - 4/5 Boiling Pots: Encabronado Shrimp - 5/5 Food is really good, the boiling pots are delicious. The spice is super tasty. Fun atmosphere. read more

Wow this place is wild! It's got crazy lights and music, entertainment, very little English spoken, and a totally eccentric menu of Mexican and sushi. The oyster platter was so crazy to look at and very exciting to eat. The Mexican food was tasty and authentic, and the sushi was fresh. I'm not sure I totally understood the puppet show that was occurring, but would like to come back on a karaoke night! Very fun and festive night out! read more

SeaReina is definitely a restaurant to visit if you are looking for a taste of the state of Sinaloa, Mexico in terms of its food and atmosphere, this restaurant being an emblematic part of the Gabriela's family of restaurants, its concept is really striking, from the decoration and lighting that can fill any feed on social media as well as the creativity of its drinks and options of seafood and sushi, it should be noted that this restaurant is not suitable for those looking for a calm and quiet place since the music so loud both the DJ and the live events create an atmosphere full of party, as a Mexican who is used to growing up in this type of environment, it does not bother me, but for someone new to this experience, I do recommend bringing earplugs. SeaReinas has enough parking space and also enough tables to spend a pleasant evening, although I recommend being aware of their social media channels since sometimes they have large events that limit space, especially for those who just want to eat. The Michelada options are my favorites, especially if you like to enjoy a delicious snack with your drink, although I also recommend the Aguas Locas that are made with natural fruit and not instant drinks like in other places. This time I had to try the smoked tuna tacos, which were delicious, but I also recommend the aguachile or the pissed off shrimp (Camarones Encabronados), although any option is really good. Something to keep in mind is that most Mexican restaurants in Austin offer chips and salsa but in the case of SeaReinas and as is the tradition in seafood restaurants in Mexico, they serve you a small seafood broth and it is really worth it. The service in all the occasions in which I have gone has always been excellent although it is necessary to remember that most restaurants are understaffed in the Austin area and this can sometimes slow down the service during the busiest hours but staff always has been kind. SeaReina es definitivamente un restaurante a visitar si estas buscando una probadita del estado de Sinaloa, Mexico en cuanto a su comida y ambiente, siendo este restaurante parte emblemática de la familia de restaurantes de Gabriela´s, su concepto es realmente llamativo, desde la decoración e iluminación que puede llenar cualquier feed en las redes sociales así como lo creativo de sus bebidas y opciones de comida del mar y el sushi, cabe destacar que este restaurante no es apto para aquellos que buscan un lugar tranquilo y silencioso ya que la musica tanto del DJ como de los eventos en vivo crean un ambiente lleno de fiesta, uno como mexicano que esta acostumbrado a crecer en este tipo de ambientes no le hez molesto pero a alguien nuevo a esta experiencia si les recomiendo llevar tapones para los oídos. SeaReinas cuenta con suficiente espacio de estacionamiento y también suficientes mesas para pasar una velada agradable aunque recomiendo estar al pendiente de sus redes sociales ya que en ocaciones tienen eventos grandes que limitan el espacio especialmente para aquellos que solo quieren comer. Las opciones de Micheladas son mis favoritas especialmente si te gusta disfrutar de una deliciosa botana con tu bebida aunque también recomiendo las aguas locas que son de fruta natural y no de bebidas instantáneas como en otros lugares. En esta ocasión me toco probar los tacos de atún ahumado que estuvieron deliciosos pero también les recomiendo el aguachile o los camarones encabronados aunque cualquier opción es rica la verdad. Algo a tomar en cuenta es que la mayoría de restaurantes mexicanos en Austin ofrecen chips y salsa pero en el caso de SeaReinas y como es tradición en restaurantes de Mariscos en Mexico, te sirven un pequeño consomé de mariscos y la verdad vale la pena por que esta muy rico. El servicio en todas las ocaciones en las cuales he ido ha sido siempre excelente aunque hay que recordar que la mayoría de restaurantes no tiene suficiente personal en el area de Austin y esto puede a veces alentar el servicio durante las horas más ocupadas pero el trato siempre ha sido amable. read more

Loud af. Like ear splitting loud. Bartenders can't even hear the order. The Margarita was so artificially sweet. Blech!

Los Camarones Encabronados are sooo delicious!! The sauce is spicy and shrimp is butterflied so it's easy to take shell off. Sushi was good but no wow factor to it. I would say food is very much on the pricey side. Drinks are averagely priced. They have live banda so this place is LOUD at nights. You can barely have a conversation with someone right next to you. Def "get lit" vibes. Wouldn't come here on a date or when you have tea to spill with your friends. Not sure if it's still loud earlier in the day but I came here about 2 years ago for lunch and the restaurant music was on full blast. The decorations and colorful lights are cute tho! IF YOU SIT AT THE BAR, BEWARE: I went there with a friend and sat at the bar so maybe that's why automatically charged us 18% gratuity. I normally tip well so wasn't mad about it BUT I was kinda surprised they added that without it being disclosed. Too loud to even ask. Like shout out to the bartender for making our drinks but they didn't even properly serve us. Again, this is a restaurant, not a club. Auto-grat should only be applied to large parties. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this Mexican/Seafood fusion spot!! Glad I went on a Monday evening, I can tell this place gets packed. The same owners as the always-poppin Gabriela's, Seareinas has the same kind of fun and outrageous drink options and a good DJ. It is a huge space with a little outdoor area. They must have some good bands on the weekends, there is a big stage inside and signs saying there's a $25 cover. We started with the seafood queso that's served inside of a pineapple. The title is misleading, as it is not a dip. It's more like a plate that comes with rice and bread. The flavors were epic, and they do not skimp out on the quantity of shrimp and octopus. Their tortillas are made to order and they were so good. The ceviche was another hit! I'm normally not a big fan of fried sushi but we tried the Mal Verde roll and I ate it all. The rolls are unique and good quality all around. Good service and fast. I'll definitely be back! read more

LOUD but every time I've gone, the food I have and the food my friends get is always 100%. Can't go wrong. Just know it's LOUD in here to where your server can barely hear you. read more

Pros: The sopa de cachucha we got as a welcome treat was best thing we had all night. the fish and shrimp ceviche was large and really good and seasoned chips were great. Unlike other reviews I've read, our waitress was super attentive and nice. (However, we did see food runners taking numerous plates to the wrong tables while we were there, so table number education is still an issue. ) So-so: other dishes were ok, not memorable enough to return. We fully expected the two sushi rolls we got to be novelty items and that's pretty much what they were. Fish or rice quality doesn't really measure up yo the countless sushi choices around town that charge similar. Cons: food prices are a tad high for what you get, but maybe that helps pay for the DJ + band that showed up as we were wrapping up. The music was LOUD. Like really loud. Once the band started with their snare drum and multiple trumpets it took LOUD to the next level. I'd sit as close to the far back wall where the sushi bar is as humanly possible if I had to return. Sadly, with all the great choices around town, not sure there will be a next time. I'd maybe return for some big soccer games if they don't blast music over the announcers as the big projector screen and numerous tv's are enticing. We went at 6pm on a Thursday. We really wanted to love this place as it's less than 10 mins from home, but our initial smiles and excitement for the decor and lively place slowly turned to thoughts of "damn, it's just too loud to sit here for an hour - hour and a half and eat. Maybe crank the volume up at 8pm? One star off for the obnoxiously loud music, one star off for value for price. read more

As a frequent customer this place is usually outstanding! But tonight it was not great. I ordered a shrimp cocktail,shrimp takes like I was eating dirt-this is usually my favorite place to get a shrimp cocktail. The appetizer fries with cheese also tasted like dirt. My water tastes awful like dirt. I don't know what was up but even my boyfriend wasn't impressed and agreed the food wasn't good! Other than that, my server Alexa was amazing. We sat outside and she had quite a few tables to attend to, she was very flexible. read more

So I was very excited to try this place but the seafood was a huge letdown. We were the first guest of the day so it could be they were not prepped yet. Our server was very nice and helpful she was attentive through our whole meal. The Paloma and Sandia Agua Fresca were flavorful making me think this place is more of just a bar for sips and chips. The tripe app was good but the mini shrimp in the app had no flavor and seemed under cooked. Then we tried the Aguachille Oysters. I know oysters are raw but I had one that had raw shrimp on top as well. (Made me pretty sick) The sushi was very fried and barely had any of the toppings that were listed mainly just rice and tempura. So don't come here for the JapLatino mix. The tacos were a bit of a let down too because the salad that came with was so sour it leaked towards the tacos making them so soggy. Maybe plate them separately so that the flavors do not mix. Overall would come for drinks but would not try the food. I hurled my entire meal before leaving the restaurant and it was not a cheap meal! read more

Love most of the dishes all though músic is always loud I prefer take out! My favorite is the shrimp ceviche.

I went on opening day which had a limited menu so I was sad I wasn't going to be able to have any of the sashimi plates or seafood platter with the crab legs. The inside is super cute and had a band playing so that was cool. Drinks are all super Instagram friendly. I wish they had a larger beer selection, at least 1 IPA on hand, can't do all sweet drinks. Luckily they were able to make a plain michelada, all the extra stuff on the top can be it's own meal. The shrimp platter was flavorful but the shrimp was so over cooked that the meat stuck to the shell. Oysters were HUGE but the cocktail sauce was boring and I ended up using the shrimp sauce to get through them all. The ceviche was really good, you just have to eat it fast so the tostada doesn't get soggy. I'll give it some time before returning. read more

Had a great time at seareinas we tried a variety of appetizers like the queso and the calamari, my personal favorite was the calamari! We tried the mango roll and oh goodness it did not disappoint! I would give it 5 stars the only thing is that the day we happened to stop by there was a band and it was overly loud, although the music was extremely pleasant to listen to, I think it was a little too loud for an indoor performance. We would have much more enjoyed it outside in their patio but overall our experience was great! read more

We went Saturday, around 2:30pm. Overall it's 5 stars for me because the food, ambiance and the service is really great!! We sat down, the server gave us free soup (which is really good).
