    Fish and shrimp tacos
    Eda X.

    Tacos Marlyn El Centro is very convenient and inexpensive for a lunch stop. Many locals come here regularly. Try their shrimp, fish and stingray tacos! I love that they leave out tubs of salsa, cabbage, and a plethora of accompaniment of sauces.

    So fresh , tasty , delicious and well portioned. Quick fast service, nice ambiance !!

    Fish tacos and Tostiaguchiles

    Food, service, and ambiance is great. Food always hits EVERYTIME. I love that i get to customize my fish tacos or my aguachiles to my liking. Underrated sea food place. Very affordable. Need i mention it's the coldest place in the valley? So it's a great place to cool down with fresh yummy food.

    Located just off the freeway on a Main Street in town. Plenty of parking in a small strip mall. Simple basic menu and fair pricing. Plenty of seating inside. The tacos come out plain and the salsa condiment bar has plenty of topping and sauce to satisfy the most picky eater. The tacos are fresh, hot and extraordinary. Staff was friendly and food came out fast. I would love to go back when I'm in the area. Thank you for the great food and service.

    This place is good but used to be better when they just open the restaurant. Now, I think the oil is too old and i can taste it.

    It was okay. Overhyped a bit of you ask me. Rubio's Fish Tacos taste richer and more delicious is my opinion. Nothing out of the norm here.

    Good enough for fish tacos here in The Valley. Place looks a bit unsanitary and it's always crowded. But the food is good.

    By far some of the best shrimp tacos I've ever had. I love all the extras with it. Their white sauce is on point as well.

    The tacos are pretty good, and the menu is simple. Messed up my order once and gave fish tacos instead of shrimp.

    Today I returned to the wonderful D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer in El Centro where my epic hiking…read moreexpedition ended in failure, disappointment, and embarrassment a few weeks ago. I intended to travel the entire 2,600-mile length of the Pacific Crest Trail, but my adventure unceremoniously ended in El Centro under a tree about 60 miles east of my starting point. The paramedics told me that hiking is not for everyone. After a desperate two weeks of hiking with little food and water through BLM land tracks, old service roads, and desert washes, as best I can recall, I finally set up camp in El Centro under a farmer's tree near his washing line. Soon after the farmer called the police about my campfire, the authorities and my ex-wife found me in a state of delerium hosting a tea party under a large avocado tree wearing the farmer's wife's plus size nightgown while serving "cups of chai tea" to a sizable pile of rotten avocados and a rusty shovel that I thought was "Jan" from those Toyota commercials. My first real meal after being found by the authorities and my ex-wife was at D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer. D'Poly was the perfect welcome back to civilization as it has a spectacular menu full of delicious Mexican cuisine like street tacos, flautas, sopes and empanadas. The Lineman burrito is my absolute favorite. And they have a wonderful breakfast menu! It's fast casual dining, but it has a sort of classic and moody vibe that gives off a more upscale feel. Love it! A wonderful place to break free of your delusions. My ex-wife tried to tell me that hiking is not for everyone. Thankfully, the paramedics found my emergency contact list and phoned my ex-wife who showed up and broke me out of my stupor by making me drop my emotional support avocado, taking me by the shoulders and shaking me vigorously while yelling "it's over, it's over!" Ironically, that was the same way she told me we were getting divorced. I'm not a quitter, so it takes a while for me to give up. I've since tried many items on the D'Poly menu and everything is exceptional, though I do avoid adding avocado. It's just too soon. Thank you D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer! Five stars.

We came into town for an event and this restaurant was recommended to us for the "vibes" lol. The food was pretty good, but you can definitely tell that people come more for the vibes. We got different smattering of tacos/Tex-Mex food. MAKE IT A PLATE because the rice and beans and fun veggies. Impromptu belated birthday celebration - cake came with a sparkler!

    This was my first time visiting this establishment, and unfortunately it was a very disappointing…read moreexperience. When we arrived, the restaurant was nearly empty with only about two tables of customers. Despite that, we were not greeted at the door and no one acknowledged us. We were left standing there trying to figure out if we were supposed to wait to be seated or seat ourselves, which already set a negative tone for the visit. That lack of attention ended up foreshadowing the rest of the service. After we were seated, everyone else at our table eventually received their food except me. When we were finally able to get the waitress's attention to ask about my order, she realized that my plate had been given to another table. By that point, I had already been waiting around 25 minutes, and I was on a limited lunch break, so the delay was extremely frustrating. To make matters worse, when it came time to pay, I was charged more than what I had actually ordered. At that point, I was so disappointed and pressed for time that I did not even bother disputing it and just wanted to leave. I want to note that this experience occurred at the Antojitos on Main Street location, not the Desert Gardens location. I truly hope management can address these issues, because first impressions matter, and this visit left a lot to be desired.

    Quaint and off the beaten path. DELICIOUS home made old school classics. Reasonable priced.read more
