Some of the best mariscos I've had in a while! I had the ceviche and tacos dorados. Fast service and great quality food. Soooo good I will definitely be back!

This place gives me ENSENADA BAJA CALIFORNIA VIBES! The fish is fresh and so are the veggies. I prefer my shrimp uncooked/raw and marinating in the lime/lemon mixture so ask to be sure of what's in the order beforehand! The prices are pretty darn good for the amount of seafood you get. The towers are so insanely massive that the to-go box WILL NOT close if you order this - don't let this scare you this only is how well portioned they are -you'll have to eat or knock down some of your tower or ask them to make it so you can close the box lol They're already so busy that I would personally do it myself. Also the hours on here are not correct they're open at LEAST 1-2 hours past the time listed here. Be prepared to wait up to an hour for this - the wait is worth it so come prepared to relax under the fans this patio has - some mention mariachi music on the weekends! Also these tostadas are super addictive! I asked if I could purchase a whole bag and they did sell it - worth the purchase for those towers! Some people complain about less taste yes they are made with a light flavor profile- if you eat there in person (which is recommended) get the salsa you like there's like 10 on a table at a time sometimes I personally like the ones with habanero or the salsa Negra or tapatio they have salt in little packets & ketchup by the register. Doctor it up to your liking and I'm sure there's a way to ask for more lemon.

My go to place for my cravings of sea food. Always fresh and great customer service. It's outside but you can always order to go. Family friendly.

Their shrimp fries and shrimp cocktails are my fav! This was my fave spot to go very nice staff too.

Omg! First time here & it was SUPER AMAZING! I am so impressed with the freshness it has! The oysters to the shrimp to the vegetables! The first bite of the crunch form the shrimp & chips! Hmmm yum! The VIP chileda was a HIT! Talk about goodness in one cup! I can't wait to go back to eat & try some more dishes!

I ordered off Grubhub 3 of the 4 top rated dishes: shrimp burritos, fish tacos, and ceviche mixto, me and my dad split the order and we both agreed that while the food wasn't bad, it also wasn't very good. The food was delivered fast and everything looked great but sadly lacked flavor. Everything we ordered was disappointing. I even tried the sauces that came with it and the pink sauce was not quite the right taste but still added some flavor. The red sauce though! I can only describe the smell and flavor as that of new shoes. Seriously. Like new rubber. No other smell or flavor than that. I don't know if I got a bad batch or what but that sauce does not taste or smell like food at all. 3 stars since food was fine, but not good. Will not buy from here again.

Have been here twice now and both times haven't disappointed. Have ordered the seafood platter which is more than enough food for 5 people. It's a mix of ceviche, agua chiles, oyster shots and more!! They have mariachi on Sunday mornings and a Grupo in the evenings. You can bring your own alcohol so that's pretty convenient.

Welllllllllll I think this place just wasn't for me. I thought the cooked shrimp in the coctel had an odd texture. Of course Strathmore is far away from the ocean and i'm sure its all frozen, which I don't mind. However, this shrimp had an odd, flakey texture I didn't like. The jugo in the coctel didn't have much flavor either. It needed lemon juice and some SAZÓN. It was pretty bland. No tenía sabor para nada. The shrimp in the aguachiles had much better texture and i liked them a lot more. For me, the chile was really spicy and I couldn't really eat it. If you love spicy you'll like the aguachile. Just my opinion! I see this place has lots of good reviews and this is just my opinion!

Food is so good, and they make sure you get your money's worth. Nice staff. A bit of a long wait time sometimes so we usually call in our orders first.

The food was very outstanding. Good big portions of food .. customer service was great..its a very good place to go with the family but the only I dislike about it of the reason I gave 4 stars ... they don't have alot of drinks ,just 3 type of can soda and 3 jarritos....

It's ok... I had dinner with wife, Sis, and parents this Saturday. $114 for 2 orders of breaded ?, 2 ? tacos, 5 fried tacos, 1 ? coctel, and a tray of Mariscada which consisted of a lot of potatoes quartered, carrots, small octopus, ?, ? w/ heads and small ?. All ? was overcooked rubbery, $45 for tray of potatoes. Service not great. Loud music, you walk up order, pay and sit down. I would give it no stars but I can't. A lot of people recommend that place in Visalia and Lindsay. Both in my personal opinion.... All around rating 1 ?.
