Not going to lie. Since the menu dripped salsa on my friends clothes right from the start when we arrived I almost told my friends, "you know what, let's go"but I didn't. We stayed and ordered. (Since we got there we felt rushed to order) got the food and started eating. Everything tasted good (we got the camarones cucaracha, pescado empanizado y el plato que trái mariscos con mucho queso) we requested tortillas and that's when things went down hill. The tortillas had mold and at first I wanted to say it was charcoal but it wasn't!! MOLD, green, with white fuzzies and all that!! I obviously brought it up to their attention. We had already damn near finished our food because it was good except for moldy tortillas. When I mentioned it all that was said to us was "I'm sorry" "would you like new tortillas" and I replied with me because we were done. When I got the bill she mentioned "we didn't charge you for the tortillas"! I ALMOST LOST IT!! Like WOW, thanks for not charging me for the moldy tortillas. Like Miss Ma'am, it only makes sense not to charge me for them but okay. We received a sorry apology and free of charge on moldy tortillas. Very disappointed for the make up of serving expired food. I expected a free cocktail (that's what we were drinking) a 10% discount on the tab, i don't know something more than a sorry sorry and not Chevy g me the tortillas we have already ate. Llegamos y al abrir el menú, le callo salsa a la ropa de mi amigo. En ese momento les quise decir vámonos. Pero no no lo hice. Les dije que pequeños lugares como ese por lo normal están bien ricos. Así que nos quedamos. Ordenamos la comida. La mesera parecía que tenía prisa. Llega la comida y los muchachos quieren tortillas así que pedimos dos órdenes. Llegan las tortillas y mi amigo dise creo que las tortillas no sirven. Le dije si sirven como que no? Tenían así manchas pero yo lo justificaba con que era del final así como quemado. Cuando por fin me pasan una tortilla y miro que no no es quemado. La tortilla está vencida y pasada . Cuando lo mencioné a la mesera ella llamo a otro muchacho. No pidió disculpas y si queríamos otras tortillas. Claro que no queremos más tortillas aparte ya casi avían terminado. Luego pido la cuenta y me menciona la muchacha que no nos cobraron las tortillas, no pues ya sería el colmo! Ni un descuento puna bebida gratis. Simplemente no le cobré las tortillas vencidas. Probably a shitty day for the restaurant but if tortillas are being sold like this. When was the last health inspection? Okay good. My friends are puerto rican so to them it was delicious until we seen the mold. I will say it's not the end of the world but no one goes out to be fed mold. When the restaurant makes a mistake there should be better solutions or compensations. Sorry and not charging us for the expired food is already a must.

Excellent service, exquisite food, very clean place and the manager's attention to making sure I leave very pleased is priceless. I recommend "La Torre" in pure lemon with "culiche" sauce recommended by the manager. It was worth the trip. Thank you

If you are not Spanish or at least speak it do not come. I had to pull out my translation app but , basically I asked for a medium margarita with salt rim and when asked about the red stuff the manager said that it doesn't matter that's how it comes. He watched me walk in the door didn't greet me at all. Soon as the Spanish couple walks in he stood straight up and spoke to them . Is my money not the same as everyone else. Then I order the cheese dip no chips

The ceviche especial and pepinos el barco are the only things I've tried so far and if the rest of their food is anything like this then they deserve 10

Wow, we entered the restaurant and they had an excellent work environment. The food was the best and Yosari's service was very good. We received sarandeado shrimp and the same thing but with octopus in addition to the Sinaloa-style sushi. I loved it. I will definitely come back.

The food is excellent, but it has a couple of waitresses who definitely shouldn't work there, they are completely oblivious to customer service, there are two in particular who serve reluctantly, they should look for another job if they don't like it because the customers don't they have to put up with their bad temper

Amazing food here, well worth a visit. The outside of the building looks like a house, so I was initially wary. But the inside looks like a very local and authentic Mexican joint, well kept up, clean and comfortable. It's not a touristy spot and that is absolutely its appeal.The staff don't speak a whole lot of English but they speak enough for anyone to get by pretty easily. We've returned for dinner a couple times now, and always leave satisfied.BIG portions. You can easily split most dishes, and the larger portions of the appetizers (ceviche for example) can be easily split among big parties. They are absolutely a seafood restaurant, so don't expect much else. But there is a lot of variety to their seafood menu and everything is delicious.
