This is the best place around for mariscos, the service is great, the music is great, and the food is amazing. Authentic Mexican food.

Loved the "Mojara" plate!! Everything about the plate; the presentation was there, the taste was perfect, rice was on point, portion was perfect!First time going and im definitely going back!!I have to add, my personal favorite restaurant in town for this specific plate from now on!!The ladies at the counter are great! I love the setting inside. Ambient noise is a little annoying with both the music and tv on high volumes but not a deal breaker at all!I wish i would have taken a picture of my plate before i devoured it! Go check them out !!!!

I ordered a reg shrimp cocktail to go and a large campechana both cold with no onions. When I got home I seen that both containers were the same size and both had onions. I called and the girl on the phone argued with me that first what I got was correct then said I needed to come back which is already ridiculous, then tried to get me to send a picture of my food to the cook. Just unprofessional, from a place I’ve been to a couple times. I’ve gotten larges and these are not the containers, they are the same containers they have up at the counter that say regular. And to think I’m going to send pictures to random numbers is even more ridiculous. Just a bad attitude when I wasn’t trying to be rude just wanted what I paid for. Could’ve resolved it nicely but kept telling me I was wrong.

Had seafood here that had gone bad, I called back and they didn't offer an apology or any kind of refund. Worst seafood spot in Salinas.

Lexi, you’re AMAZING!!! I randomly came in asking for a drink that wasn’t even on the menu but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to figure out how to make it - she spent her time to make sure it tasted good and that I liked it, and I’m beyond beyond grateful (horchata iced coffee). 10/10 stars and customer service - everyone here is friendly and very accommodating naturally. Also the price here for my drink was so much more affordable than other places I’ve been to for this same drink ($4). THANK YOU LEXI AND EVERYONE HERE FOR THE STELLAR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

Food was really good but the cocktail I got was slightly bland. Tables were way too small for three people.

We ordered over the phone for a Father’s Day meal for 6 people. The service was great. The ladies at the counter were so friendly and helpful and the food was really good. We will be ordering again from this place. I recommend!

My husband and I went to have a michelada and decided to get the shrimp tacos. I actually enjoyed the tacos, the micheladas were warm though. The bigger problem was that my husband was eating his last taco and he found a long hair in his taco ?.Anyway, that grossed us out so we can't ever go back there. I also noticed the restaurant wasn't too clean. There was trash on the floor and the tables felt a little sticky.

Shrimp tacos are good??

Not sure what the hype is about but it’s okay, not the best tacos, nor rice, nor salad de códito. Fish Tacos were bland, no seasoning, the orange sauce is what saved it. Fish had wierd cuts, in squares. And chip green salsa was very lemony and too spicy. Rice was too salty and the ensalada de macaroni was sweet. The agua de pepino was good tho
I am surprised this place has that many stars. I had too many bad experiences on one visit. First one, they had no natural water, so I had to order agua fresca (that did not come with ice, I had to drink it room temperature, so it wasn't so fresca) 2: The restaurant had no other customer but myself and coworker, on our hour lunch. But even that hour wasn't enough to get my food. I had to pack it up and go as soon as I got it because I had zero time to eat it. On top of that, the lady questioned me with attitude as to why was I leaving without eating. 3: Sanitation is not practiced here. My straw was an open straw(without packaging) which she held without gloves or even a napkin to avoid touching it. As well as for my lemons. She tossed the cut lemons around in here hand as she walked over to me to hand them over. She dared to place them differently on my food. Which made me uncomfortable after watching her toss them around in her hands. She could've placed them in a container to avoid man handling them so much. 4: My plate was suppose to have rice and beans per the menu's description, after an hour of waiting my food finally came out but it had fries instead of beans. They didn't ask if that was okay. After coming back to work other coworkers mentioned their horrible experiences here too.Do not go here. Don't waste your money. Find better service else where.

The food is delicious, but they seem to be understaffed, it wasn't busy at all and it took awhile to get our food. That's the only reason I give it 4 stars, but I will definitely go back.

very very bad service this store instead of contacting me they canceled my order they made the decision to cancel it themselves and they wasted 45 minutes of the time of the man who does the door dash.

Make sure to bring cash!Sometimes they let you pay card, most of the time they don't. Depends on who is at the register.I have only tried the ceviche (fish) because it's absolutely delicious here.Staff is hit & miss, sometimes very pleasant and others not so much. This is why I prefer to always order To Go.Last time I was there it smelled horribly from smoke. So I ordered quickly and left asap.Again, I only order one dish and get it To Go. But if you love seafood I'd recommend grabbing something here.
