Great place for Mexican style seafood! The place is clean and bright during the day. Shrimp dish (Veracruz-style) had nice flavors that wasn’t just starch. Whole red snapper (fried) for $26 is a great deal. Everything tasted fresh and good!

The food is delicious and servers are great. I was suggested this place by a friend that advised me the place is small and you may have to wait for a table. I waited only a few minutes and when seated the service was pretty quick and everything was very good. Based on the amount of food I found to to be a bit pricey, but it is seafood and seafood is always a bit more expensive than other stuff – definitely a fair price.

Wow! Incredible place that I wish I knew about sooner! It’s first come first serve but they put you on list and will call when your table is ready. Been here TWICE in same week! The shrimp were HUUUGE and packed with so much flavor. Their staff is nice and it’s BYOB. WOOOOOO!

It’s a good spot to get some fresh seafood, variety is a little limited, and the price is on the extreme side but the atmosphere is nice. I had the stuffed pineapple and spicy shrimp. It’s BYOB and it gets packed here. If you’re in the area worth a shot but be ready to spend.

This place is always super full but the food is SOOOOOO worth it!!! It’s super delicious! Every time we came here we are prepared to wait because we know at the end it’s worth it!!! For less busy days I would suggest going durning the week & you can also order for take out! Lovvvveeee this place!

THE HONEST REVIEWER Follow me
The flavor of the langostinos is great the ceviche is ok . But what dissapointed me is that we ordered the jumbo tray and the portion for the price is outrageous.

Really tiny, food was great, server was amazing. But I didn’t get that really hype that I seen reviews about. It’s local to home so that was a plus
