A few friends and I are visiting from Australia I found this amazing restaurant two blocks from our airbnb. The food is absolutely spectacular, all seafood is freshly prepared. Visited 3 times and was served by Laya with the best customer service in the area. If you are visiting from overseas or if you are local come and check it out... I highly recommend this place!!

Service was horrible starting with customer service and once we got out food the meat was not cooked that well and waitress didn’t bother to smile and the flavor was horrible no taste it’s like they just cooked it quick .. I will never go back worst food I have ever had for $70 take a risk if you go ..

Lengthy review incoming: I just want to say I use to come here ALL THE TIME when I wanted some solid cocktail de camaron or shrimp tacos, michelada etc. But recently, this place has REALLY fallen off. Ive been here a few times over the last few months and its just not the same anymore.

Theres this particular girl who works there during the day who has the most unhospitable approach. They dont even greet you when you come in, i sit down - they dont even wipe the tables down its all sticky and gross. Theres nothin worse than placing your forearms on a table and feeling the stickiness. Its actually kind of gross. Place is so small that small stuff like that shouldnt be an issue. When you walk in- just be prepared to see this face ? and the lowest monotone voice ever lol.

I simply dont understand how you can work at a restaurant (particularly a marisco place) and seem like you rather NOT TALK to people. I get it, we all have a bad day, but man its been like 3-4 times now. The people ive brought. All say the same thing. "Foods pretty good, but sometimes the service kinda kills the mood." Its realllly really hit or miss. But with this girl, its 100%.

I usually dont write reviews, but I just had to. I feel like if Im giving money to this place and use to recommend it and the standard has been lowered, then I feel it should be brought back to what it was. And that starts by giving an honest opinion.

Suggestion: Hire people who actually have waitress experience and know how to EARN tips, not expect them. And thats starts by greeting people, wiping tables down before they sit down, suggest things- act like youre familiar with the menu, and it doesnt hurt to smile. But when you cant even do the aforementioned, thats kinda wild.

The front end staff use to be A1, but after some changes over time, things have really changed the vibe at this place. Final thought: if you want an entire Marisco experience with music, waiters/waitresses that are attentive and on top of it etc- avoid this place. If you can careless about the lack of service and it being a 50:50 shot and just want solid food, this is the place for you lol.

The Marisco spot has everything you need as a business, the only thing missing is better seasoning and quality, the aguachile with 12 shrimp. I didn't like tennis, more vegetables than protein.

I expected more from the food, nothing special. There is better seafood in the area. Slow service, they need at least another waitress because they take a long time to serve the tables. And only 3 tortillas for a $55 molcajete? Better to order 6 tortillas separately so you know. I definitely won't be coming back.
