About Mariscos El Perihuete

Mariscos El Perihuete is a lively seafood restaurant with ample indoor and outdoor seating. It can get quite busy, especially on weekends, but weekdays offer easier parking and shorter wait times for a table. The menu features popular dishes like the empapelado and the aguachile, which has just the right amount of heat and lime. The attentive staff ensures the food is served promptly, and customers often enjoy a small cup of very tasty shrimp soup with tostadas as an appetizer. Some find the shrimp soup can be spicy, but it is delicious. The seafood dishes, including the seafood tray and shrimp with octopus cocktail, are highly praised. Customers have noted that the portions are huge and the shrimp is super fresh. The place is known for its amazing seafood, great service, and a family-friendly atmosphere. It is a popular spot for celebrations and large gatherings, and the music, though sometimes loud, adds to the lively environment. The restaurant has been a favorite for many since 2003, with dishes like the Perihuete guacamole and green aguachile consistently receiving compliments from repeat customers. Although parking can be tough, it is worth the effort, and the staff is friendly, often providing extra tostadas.
