This place has really good food. It is spacious & the also have carne Asada for those who don’t eat seafood. If I recall correctly it’s BYOB, the food is delicious & it’s usually never too packed. Good customer service as well.

This is my ultimate seafood place!!! This place is by far thee best environment to have a great time at. The quality & portions of the food cannot be compared to other local seafood places. The waitress are amazing! Don Jose the chef is a great cook, and does a beautiful job! I had my baby shower in the side hall they have… That’s how much I LOVE this place! Anyone who is looking for a great seafood place without over paying for their dinner, this is the place to be! And BYOB!!! Besides the fact that they also have alternative options for non sea food eaters!

This is the real deal!!! I found this place on a magazine ad dining at a restaurant. I am always up for checking new places so had to check it out. I was there with a friend Tuesday around 7PM. We park right in front and and go inside. The restaurant is typical of many Mexican seafood restaurants with plastic sharks, trees and a hammock right in the middle high on the ceiling. We sit and the waitress comes with the menus, some ceviche, tostadas, crackers and habanero salsa. We ordered carne Zamora, piña rellena and langostinos, jarrito de mandarina and we are cool. I did not know that it is BYOB, I would’ve brought some coronas or tequila. Oh yea is BYOB. My friend gets a tostada, puts some ceviche and stats spooning habanero salsa like is ketchup. I tell him«hey dude try it first, it might be hot». «I’ll be ok» he replied. Lol needless to say he wasn’t. Lets put it this way I saw a couple of tears on his face LOL. Now I have something to bash him with for months. Point being that habanero salsa is extremely hot, beware. After my laughing about my friend trying to get rid of the burn, we get the food. Everything was delicious. The carne Zamora comes with a good size skirt steak, cooked to perfection, a quesadilla, Mexican chorizo, whole beans, rice, grilled green onions and jalapeño. Truly delicious combination. The langostinos are good, well seasoned(not too salty or over seasoned) fresh good quality prawns. But then, the piña rellena(stuffed pineapple) … Can’t find the proper term to describe it without sounding like a teenager(erase: OMG, heavenly, seriously) f*^ing perfect. The perfect combination of flavors. Half pineapple, scooped out the flesh, grilled shrimp, octopus, fish cheese and broiled. You get the sweetness of the pineapple combined with the seafood and then a little bit of heat from the hot peppers and to top it off some melted cheese. This was some serious good eating. This comes with rice, salad, garlic bread and fries. After eating all that food I wished there was more pina rellena, not because I was still hungry, or the portion(portions are huge) but because that is one of those addicting flavors that you can’t stop eating(or at least I). Yeap it was that good. Can’t wait to come back on a week end. I think they have music or karaōke. At least that is what the waitress told me, service is super nice and attentive. They checked on us a few times throughout the dinner. When we got the check I was surprised the prices are reasonable here. CASH only, LOL I learned that the hard way. MMLB, great food, reasonable prices, good service, cash only and BYOB
