Ports O’ Call Village

We were so disappointed with this place. We expected something like Shoreline Village in Long Beach. This place is far, far away from that. It’s filthy, it smells, it’s crowded, the food looks horrible, if you eat here, you might catch something. And you pay $$$ for it.
If you visit San Pedro, stay away from Ports O’Call Village. This isn’t a cute Marina, there are no stores around, just seafood restaurants/​shacks and an outdoor food court area with a band of Mariachi playing. It’s nothing you can do around here unless you want to get some food poisoning.
We couldn’t wait to turn around and leave. Luckily, the trolley was there so we just hopped on and left the Ports O’Call behind.

A great place to get fresh seafood but man it was crowded when we went (to be expected on a holiday weekend). Wish the bathrooms were cleaner.

This a nice place to bring the family if you like seafood and it’s by the harbor and parking it’s free in the summer and weekends special it get very busy some time you can’t find parking space the food here they go from 10.00 up 30 and 40 bucks depending what you order.

Gosh, what a dirty mess of a place these days!
This will be a review of the outdoor food court area.
I guess this is equivalent to the food area of an event at a fairgrounds or something. Dirty tables, a few choices of walk-​up windows to order from, deep fried food that all tastes the same, and super high prices. Add lots of table hogging and inconsiderate space invasion by undesirable families and groups. People don’t clean up after themselves and simply throw their trash on the ground. If it’s windy, even worse! A lot of this crap goes into the harbor, which is absolutely horrible! D= Oh yeah, and smelly, polluted water abounds.
The only plus I can think of is that they serve alcohol. I suppose this offsets the blandness of the deep fried choices of food you have, and also pads the misery of where you are at.
Parking is so-​so. Probably better to go during warm season, as it can get quite cold and windy at other times of the year.

Sadly disappointed, after many years of not coming here I can see why we didn’t. It has not been kept up, needs painting and feels like nothing has been repaired. The only good thing is the restaurants, they have great places to eat!

20 yeas ago, this place wasn’t this filthy and noisy. Now it’s loud with Mariachi music, people goes there to eat by the ocean and through or drop trash in ocean. The harbor is filthy with trash like plastic forks, napkins, plates… most of the trash are from here. To my opinion, this is not a nice place to eat or hangout at all.

So we came here kinda last minute decision, this place has changed over the years. We came at a good time it wasnt tooo packed so we had plenty of tables to choose from. We had a shrimpand fish fillet combo with garlic bread. When it comes to flavor is very poor it does not have a good flavor for the price we paid $ 41 plus $ 2 for lemons. To drink my husband got a michelada it had no salt with the chili powder i had a coke and my daughter got a coconut drink which was delicious

Order whatever you want and they cook it for you. Hands down best shrimp and potatoes ever! Also try the tilapia grilled.

Love Love Love this place. came here as a kid as I had an older brother that could drive and had friends in P.V. It’s a cool spot they have it all art shops ice cream shops. Rides although only the small ones that you find out side markets but good for the little ones. Boat rides lots of sea food live fish markets and such.
