Close and just off of Hollywood boulevard. Sharkey's is great. I am always surprised by how wonderful the food is. It's low-key and not terribly crowded but it's terribly friendly and the food is very very good

I ordered a vegetarian burrito and found a piece of beef in it :(I was very disappointed, but restaurants offered me a refund and extra taco for free. I appreciate when people can admit guilt and compensate for unpleasant experiences

Excellent fresh Salmon.Best modern Mexican food anywhere, Cantina beach style in Tinsel Town...some of the new hires lack training...carry cash.

This place was absolutely terrible. I was in the area and it was recommended on Yelp so I wanted something nearby. I ordered the grilled fish taco plate and it was an absolute disaster. It's such a simple dish and tasted horribly. I didn't even finish half the order because I thought I was going to get sick from it. I had to trash it. I would NOT recommend this place.

Smelly fishy grilled salmon - sent it back? Took ages too, and I was their 2nd customer at lunch.Veggie taco had quite acidic canned tomato salsa (dark burgundy red), more like italian sauce weirdly, with lime. Makes no sense, and that bitter heavy-ness ruined the entire taco. Veggies were a bit over cooked n wilted so that was a yech taco too.Walked back to counter to exchange fish for chicken and was told I could get the chicken taco at that register but since I originally ordered it on the other register I had to wait in an 8 person line for my refund. Really? Ugh. To be fair, it went faster since both registers took orders.Chicken taco looked interesting and better, and brought my review from 1 to 2 stars. Fresh well cooked (but not thoughtfully spiced).This place reminds me of when I was 25, trying to cook healthy at home in LA. Threw healthy veggies into Mexican or Asian dishes but didn’t know how to tie flavors together, so it tasted disjointed. Did I just eat Mexican or healthy california cuisine? Sharky’s need to throw some cumin or chipotle into the grilled veggies to harmonize with the dishes. And totally revamp that veg taco! That thing needs life.My impression is young guys put this chain together with a solid idea but have obvious issues. It’s popularity must be based on the healthy fresh concept..if only they got it really right. This foodie would be very happy.Left feeling unsatisfied..won’t return, with all the amazing taco shops and great organic restaurants, why?Went to feed my meter across the street and was aghast to see that that lunch - 2 tacos, took 40 minutes!!!?‍♀️

Tried this place out for the first and it was pretty good. The service staff were very friendly and they had a really great menu too. Not to mention the prices were very reasonable too.

Hands-down, the worst food I've had in a long time. This place serves only garbage. I had to re-order and what I re-ordered was even worse. Stay away

Good enough tacos for a quick bite.

i do normally really love sharkys, the past 5 times i have ordered a VEGETARIAN meal they have put a little meat in it. and it continues to happen and it makes me not want to eat there anymore.

Great menu with all meat types (beef, chicken, pork, salmon, shrimp, other fish) and vegan options (tofu, cauliflower, mushroom). The plant based quest dip is delicious with pumpkin seeds, jalapeños and onions. Our entire group of picky eaters finished their meals. Staff is awesome. Our meals were fresh, bathrooms clean, great drink options with green Tran and tropical tea, salsa bar was clean and stocked and great inside temperature. Overall experience is a ten!!

Generous portions, tasty food, and the items are ready in the promised time.

Fresh food, great service & a nice variety of menu options including gluten-free. There's a paid parking lot but I easily found street parking right out front. Would definitely return with more friends.

Pleasant staff and the food appeared to be of good quality. Ordered one fajita bowl and they were nice enough to make two off menu items, just chicken and rice bowls for two of my picky girls. Parking was available right out front so no complaints. Will definitely be eating here next we’re in the area.
