Mariscos & Birria El Prieto is a restaurant known for its variety of tacos and mariscos dishes. The carne asada tacos remain a popular choice, holding a rating of 4.5 out of 5. The "Coqueta" mariscos dish, featuring shrimp, octopus, and scallops, offers a flavorful sauce but is noted for using imitation crab instead of real crab. The fish tacos have received praise, with reviews highlighting their big portions and full flavor. The restaurant operates three lunch trucks that serve mariscos, tacos, asada, adobada, and birria. Customers can enjoy boiling hot consommé, which is provided as a complimentary item and is self-serving. Service is generally fast, although there may be a wait during busy hours, and there is only standing table seating available. The food is served hot and can be enjoyed in the restaurant or taken to go. Overall, the portions are generous, the prices are great, and the staff is attentive, making it a good place for everyone to eat.
