“🍤 Review: Taco Boy Maywood, CA – A Must-Try for Authentic Mexican & Seafood!
If you're in the Maywood area and craving authentic Mexican food, you absolutely need to stop by Taco Boy. This spot is a local favorite, known for its no-frills, fast service, and fantastic, flavorful food.

The Seafood Star: Shrimp Cocktail (Cóctel de Camarón)
My visit was truly highlighted by the Shrimp Cocktail (Cóctel de Camarón), and I can say without a doubt that it was delicious! It’s the perfect blend of chilled, succulent shrimp, fresh vegetables (like onions, tomatoes, and cilantro), and that tangy, refreshing tomato-based sauce. If you're looking for a standout seafood dish that hits all the right notes, this is the one to order.

Other Seafood: Beyond the cocktail, they offer other seafood options like Tostada de Ceviche de Camarón and Mojarra Frita (Fried Fish).

“I work for Alma Paul when I was 1617 I believe that’s when it opened for Javier Galvin and it was a very nice man. The food was fabulous. He had this awesome black Porsche. I’m now 71. I was just wondering if this wonderful man was still around. They were from Mexico City of they were still the owner of a lot. I lived in Maywood. I will be there tomorrow visiting a very dear friend of mine. That is now 81 and still lives in Maywood where my son was born.“

Great place to eat.

“No one takes your order here.

It is only self-serve kiosk that make you do your own order.

I do not like these ordering kiosks that customers must do themselves.

I want to talk to a Taco Bell person.

Food was good at this location.

Customers want interaction with employees.“
