Mariscos El Culichi

This is the worst restaurant in town! We were waiting for more than an hour and finally when the called us the place was very dirty! They clean the tables but they do not sweep the floor. The music was too loud and you can not even hear or talk to the person next to you. They take too long to bring you the food and it is not cheap at all for the crapy service they give you! Definitely not going back and I do not recommend it to anybody!

The food is expensive and not that good, as usual for a seafood restaurant in the valley. The service was less than decent. No menus were given to us until asked and no utensils were brought until asked. Music was way too loud and crappy banda style, couldnt hear my guests speaking. Definetly would save my money and just go to palenque grill instead next time

Cane here after it was recommended. The location is nice and clean, old school Mexico with modern touches. First sign I wasnt going to be happy was when I asked the waiter for sugar for my unsweet tea, «let me go to the back to see if we have any» hmm
The menu itself is pretty simple with abig emphasis on shrimp, only 3 offerings for variations on fried fish. My wife doesn’t like fish so the only options for her were beef or chicken fajitas.
I ended up getting the fried huachinanga and my wife choose the chicken fajitas. My fish was, well, fried not much to it, it tasted ok but for a.$ 20 plate I expected a bit more than some old lettuce, aka a salad, and some poorly seasoned white rice and the fish. My wife’s plate was a total disappointment. The chicken appears to have come from a frozen badge and was heated on a microwave. For the chicken ti be fajitas you would expect some seasoning and some grill marks, it was actually pretty tasteless and almost looked uncooked.
The waiter was polite enough but anytime we wanted something we had to try to call him over from either the register or the bat where he was involved in various conversations.
Overall I don’t think I’ll be back since there have to be better marisco restraints here in town.

Very good food in a beautiful place with great service. A complimentary cup of seafood broth to start, then I had the Culichi Roll, which was unlike anything I’ve ever had. A sushi roll with green rice (!), shrimp, something almost like cream cheese, avocado, carrots and green onion. But it works. My husband had a shrimp in spicy sauce with cheese that was good. And I used to think I made the best mango margaritas until I had theirs. The absolute best.

My new favorite restaurant, don’t know why doesn’t have more reviews, this is way more of what I expected because of Unilocal.,truly recommend this place, my wife and I order the guero roll, green aguachile and for me a good tasting michelada.

First time here. This restaurant just opened. Everything on the menu looked good. Had a hard time deciding what to order. Settled on the oysters with ceviche. Excellent choice. Also ordered 1 fish taco. It was good. Very tasty. Wife had camarones bucaneros and she said they were really good. The special sauce was real good. There was live music on stage and the mariachi at your disposal. Great atmosphere and great food. Will definitely return.

On vacation this past week with family in McAllen Tx we heard about the new seafood restaurant called Mariscos El Culichi, so we Stopped by and you wouldn’t believe it the food was amazing like no other ! My favorite plate was the aguachiles, The music was the best it felt like we were in Mexico ! Best experience of my life ! Looking forward to another trip Down to McAllen TX
