DO NOT COME HERE I REPEAT DO NOT COME HERE. THEY WILL SCAM YOU. They advertised pickled scallops priced at 30$ a plate ( reasonable) but the thing is they tried to serve me TALAPIA AND NOT SCALLOP. I asked the waiter why did they serve me fish and not scallops. Then he told me they don't have scallops they only have fish. I told his it's false advertisement then he proceeds to get his manager. His manager should have been more honest. Instead he lies to my face and tells me they cut the scallops differently. Clearly it was fish. Point of the story do not come here with the expectation to leave happy
I came to this place for 10 years and I lost all respect for this place

Checked out Mariscos El Veneno in West Lawn—spent around $30 on camaron sarandeados, spicy crab, and BYOB michelada setup. Seafood flavors were solid and portions were hearty. Cozy spot with ocean-blue walls and live music—got a bit loud, but adds to the vibe. Staff brought a complimentary ceviche tostada, which was a nice touch. Overall a fun night, would totally go back.

The platter depicted in the photograph was priced at $250. While the menu indicates that the price is “market price,” I find it excessive. However, the staff was exceptionally lively, helpful, and friendly. They extended a heartfelt happy birthday to my husband and contributed to a pleasant ambiance. It is important to note that this establishment operates on a BYOB basis and offers a limited selection of mixers and chasers.

Mariscos El Veneno is a hidden gem for seafood lovers. I ordered the camarones a la diabla ($18.99) and a ceviche tostada ($3.50). The shrimp were perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, and the ceviche was fresh and zesty. The BYOB policy is a nice touch, and the live music added to the lively atmosphere. Service was friendly and attentive, making for an enjoyable dining experience.

It was Pachecos tire repair I patronized, it's near Mariscos. It was a good thing I went there as they were honest and pleasant to me and everyone else ??
Very Fresh, Very flavorful, and 100% authentic! This restaurant offers some of the best seafood I’ve ever tasted. The ceviche was amazing, and the salmon was perfectly crisp and delicious. Thee portions are generous, and the service is friendly. If you’re craving Mexican-style seafood, this place is a must-try! Owners are very friendly, and happy to to serve.
