An absolutely outstanding experience thanks to our amazing host, Miranda. From start to finish, everything was on point, but La Tostada Perrona completely stole the show — hands down the highlight of the meal. The callo de hacha was fresh and perfectly balanced, and the botana tacos were pure comfort with bold flavor. Pairing all of this with a michelada was next-level — I swear it literally healed me on this glorious Sunday. Can’t wait to come back and do it all over again.

The food is delicious, everything tastes super fresh and full of flavor. The staff is so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind they make you feel right at home. The aguachile was incredible, perfectly balanced and spicy in just the right way, and the fish tacos were some of the best I’ve ever had! They also have a great variety of hot sauces, so you can try different levels of heat and flavor.

We absolutely love this place. The quality of the ceviche is so good, and the salsas are delicious. We go out of our way to come here and I crave it all the time. Be aware that the food is (deliciously) Mexican spicy, and not simply US or even Mexican-American spicy. Highly recommend

Excellent spot for some seafood. I love the shrimp here and all the sauces they provide to use for tacos, soup or ceviche.

I can't say enough good things about El Yaqui. This is absolutely my all time favorite specialized taco shop, serving all seafood based dishes. From the perron and botana tacos, to the aguachiles tostada, to the shrimp and octopus cocteles and finally the giant seafood plate (forgot the specific name), everything is absolutely delicious, fresh and bursting with flavor. I come here as often as possible whenever I am in the area. Thank you!!!

Tacos de camarón are good, but Wouldn’t come back again, I order tostada de Jaiva and it tasted super bad like the Jaiva was frozen. Definitely wouldn’t come back again. Very disappointed. 10 dollars for 1 tostada.
Awesome food and staff
