For what me and my family were looking for it was perfect. Came in on Saturday evening and it was a little busy. Amazing service from start to finish. Love their aquatic decor. My kids loved the live lobster tank. Amazing happy hour specials. My michelada was great and don't sleep on their blended margaritas. The fish and shrimp ceviche was solid. Fresh and tasty. My children shared a deep fried shrimp plate. We also shared a salmon and shrimp plate. Honestly no complaints. Fresh,hot and full of flavor. We ended having a couple drinks at their patio. It was karaoke night and the ambience was amazing. Over all a great experience for us. read more

Came here because I had seen that they have a Happy Hour that goes pretty late. I was in the area so I stopped by. The HH is for drinks only: beers and margaritas but they did give me chips and salsa for free. The salsa was good but they gave me a cup of their refried beans and they were very good. At $7 for huge mug, the Modelo Negro was a great deal. I wish they had some light food options but the chips and salsa was a good offering. The place is huge and nicely decorated. I had been here years ago for a Groupon coupon I had purchased. I remember walking in and it was so packed that I was like "what's going on" and then I was reminded that it was Cinco de Mayo. Would love to come back and try the food. read more

Have come here for a few years now. Love their happy hour margaritas. Usually stick to the asada burritos and seafood. Today I went with the caldo de res and it was super delicious. Great broth. The bean dip is top notch. Definitely recommend this spot read more

This place is amazing!! March 28 2025 12 noon I ordered a 7 mares caldo, hands down it was definitely the best caldo I have ever had. It was delicious!! The restaurant is clean, and the service was outstanding, even though they were really busy they were very curious and polite. Kitchen, extremely efficient as I did not wait long for my food and best of all it was piping hot and they don't scimp on the seafood, it was loaded. But the service was the highlight of my visit/meal. Thank you for a great experience. I definitely recommend this place, and I will be back!! RS read more

The food is good and love that it's not super expensive. The service is not so bad just have to wait a bit longer since they are busy. We chose to eat outside to watch a game but there were a lot of flys during that time. Really will go inside next time. read more

Parking is in the back food is delicious highly recommend this restaurant drinks are also delicious too

The pastor tacos were packed with flavor -- perfectly seasoned, juicy, and with just the right amount of char. And the gobernador tacos? Next level! So rich and cheesy with fresh shrimp and that delicious grilled tortilla. Everything was fresh and made with care. Easily some of the best tacos I've had -- can't wait to come back for more! read more

Ambiance is little hacienda/patio style. Clean and so far quiet on a Sunday mid day early afternoon. We order the shrimp plate, different sauces, tortillas homemade style. Service was great, attentive, fast, our server was helpful and happy to serve us. We will be coming back. read more

Maria our server was absolutely wonderful & the food is exceptional. Came for a late breakfast and we will be back for dinner. The cafe de olla is worth getting, best I have had outside of the trusted circle of Tia's! If you're reading this and on the fence, just do it!!!! read more

$7 Cadillac Margaritas on Mondays and they're nice and strong. 3 and i was stoopid. They give you chips, salsa and spicy beans as a starter. Happy hour every day and a great mix of music (Luis Miguel, Bowie, Grupo Firme, Miguel Bosé, Don Henley, Eric Carmen, Tears for Fears, Metallica). This place slaps. read more

Rode here with a friend. He loves this place. It was my first time. We walked in and was greeted and seated immediately. Someone came by and dropped off menus. A bit later chips salsa and bean dip. A bit later they took our drink order. A bit later they took our food order. A bit later or drinks came. A bit later or food. Everything took so very long. It wasn't even busy. Had to ask for everything. Refills. Napkins. Etc. It was like pulling teeth. But not painful. If that makes sense. That being said, it was delicious. The workers there were all friendly. They just didn't come by often. I ordered the seafood pineapple thermidor. Salmon, shrimp, octopus and melted cheese served inside a hollow halved pineapple. A side of diabla sauce. So tasty. I also got a pint of bud light. That was also fresh and tasty. We sat next to a regular who didn't even order. They knew his order when he walked in. A green chile carnitas burrito. I will try that next time. All they need to do in my opinion is have the workers make rounds more often to check on the guests. Reverting seemed to take ten minutes. From getting a refill to getting the check. To picking up the check. To bringing it back lol read more

I bought a charola de ceviche de camaron to take to the beach. It is the WORST ceviche I have ever tried. I am not a picky person, therefore it was gross! It did not have enough lemon. No salt at all. Overall, it had NO FLAVOR!! Do not waste your money here so disappointing. read more

The place was clean and with a good ambiance. The waiter who served us was very attentive and respectful. And lastly the food was to die for, the fresh tortilla chips with a he bean dip and salsa was good tasteful. My menudo was clean and not greasy at all with an excellent flavor. Tons of meat and little hominy. My husband ordered the shrimp fajitas, they were so good. And the tortillas where handmade there. Great place to come and eat! read more

Horrible service today . Food looks like they just tossed it on the plate . The waitress Kathleen HORRIBLE. I waited for her to return to my table to get my card for 15 min after waiting in her to finish flirting with the customers and complaining about her job I decided to go pay up front myself . I over heard her talking to another waitress that the people on table 1 ( the table I was seated at ) took off without paying the bill . I had to let her know that the bill was paid . The owner stood right in the middle of the accusations she made against me and said nothing ! read more

Don't know why this place has low reviews. This is my fourth time coming here. Came for Dads birthday, Father's Day, and 2 dates with my girl. The food is sooo good!! The drinks are pretty good too! I like the molcajetes and seafood. read more

Not sure if they'r are new owners, but this was most definitely a 180 and not in a good way. This was our go to hang out. We went in today our drinks didn't come until after our meal was served burrito was cold , mimosa order came out half glasses because "they ran out of champagne " Oyster shots were not what we're used to on top of that they'r was a baby crab in my oyster shot "gross ass fuck" . It seemed it was not the servers fault but a reflection on poor management. By far the worst experience at Via Mar. I hope they can really work on this because it was a go to spot for all of my friends and I. read more

I've been coming here for some time now and I have to say I love the food here. I am obsessed with their fajitas and molcajetes. Their staff is incredibly chill and funny. The ambiance outdoor bar has a Tulum esthetic. I took my girl here and she loved it as well. Definitely a must-see if you're in town. read more

The shrimp taco dorado's are amazing. They serve them dorados style which traps the stuffing while you eat them. The sauce and cabbage garnish that they put on top of the tacos perfectly combines all the flavors. read more

Delicious food, great authentic Mexican food. Margaritas are pretty good also. Prior to COVID the $1.00 beers were very enticing!

I love Via Mar been coming here since the 1980's and I have never been disappointed. I try different dishes and always love what ordered. My favorite are the fish tacos and the Shrimp ceviche. Carne asada plate is also amazing. The molcajete is also a must have. Great service delicious food. We come here at least once a week. Love it read more

My burrito came with a surprise in it, I didn't realize it til I got home and wanted to finish my burrito. I almost died when I realized this big thing was in my burrito and in my mouth. This is so disgusting , who knows where this piece of metal came from. I don't recommend this restaurant anymore. I called the restaurant and left a message to speak with owner and or manager and I have not received a call back yet!! read more
