    Oysters de shrimp ceviche and small cocktail de camarón.
    Roxana Z.

    I can't believe I've never been here before. Decided to bring my mom with me and try a tostada or something. First of all, the girl helping us was SO ACCOMMODATING and helped clean a table so that mom was more comfortable where she sat. Poor girl had to bring out 3 straw because my mom kept dropping it and she was so kind about it. We ordered a small cocktail de camarón and oysters with shrimp ceviche. It was perfect! So good! Their prices are incredibly reasonable considering prices have gone crazy up. There are constant customers coming and going which says a lot. I'll definitely be back to support this local business. Their staff is awesome and food was great my picky eater momma loved it as well.

    They don't answer calls!!!

    Rude. First time I called a lady answered with "Can I put you on hold please" and didn't give me a chance to talk. I hung up and called again and they would deny my calls. If they are so busy hire more employees!

    Clean restaurant, friendly staff, affordable prices, and large portions. Came here with family of nine and everyone enjoyed their meals. Will definitely be coming back here again.

    I called my son up from Connecticut he found this place for me in five minutes online.Me and my Chef was picking up a puppy in La Puente and stopped by.The food was amazing!Didn't need any extra seasoning or hot sauce the food needed no extra anything .Outstanding I cannot believe how good the food was. The service was amazing. Great prices if you're ever in La Puente, please stop by this awesome place.

    Aguachiles

    It's a great place to grab Mariscos when you need to recover from A LONG weekend. I tried placing a phone order for pick up, but I could not get a hold of the restaurant since I was close by; I went in person to place my order. My boyfriend and I were in the mood for ceviche and aguachiles. We ordered a tostada rosarito and camaron. I also tried their Aguachiles with a horchata. The ceviche was great, but I can pass on the aguachiles next time. Maybe next time we will dine in!

    Menu & ambiance

    A nice little mariscos spot, has a small town feel, which is great compared to the newer media pic driven spots that emphasize social over substance. The service was excellent, waitresses were buzzing around as the place was packed for dinner time. The food was very good as well, 3 chefs in a small kitchen busting ass. First time for us so we stay with the staple Fish Tacos. Not disappointed, looking forward to our next visit to expand the menu.

    Free Chips

    I came here on a whim. It looked like it had recently opened up not long ago. If you dine in, they offer free chips and homestyle salsa that is incredibly fresh. The inside ambiance is between an actual restaurant and fast food chain. The tacos and burritos were off the hook. Great quality meats. I had chili verde, asada and shrimp, and all 3 were above par. I also partook in their own style of michelada mix. Although i enjoyed it, i thought the price was a bit steep. If they brought down the price a bit for the michelada mix (as it's a separate charge) from ordering a beer. I would be downing a lot more of them. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. The establishment was very clean inside and out. The waitress was attentive, the food was great, and i will definitely be coming back. One of the better mexican food joints in the immediate area.

    Great mariscos eatery in the area! Very clean and easy parking (at least when I went for lunch). Super friendly people and a neighborhood gem vibe to it. Pretty elaborate menu and would like to try more items, but the time I went, I just got a pescado y camaron burrito. I enjoy a nice surf and turf from time to time. I also got a chile verde pork taco because it sounded fantastic. When I came in, I was greeted and sat right away. I ordered a soda and was given chips and salsa. I probably would've been super full with just that burrito, but maybe I was just hungry at the time and was curious how the chile verde was. (I ended up taking half the burrito to go because I couldn't finish it having had the taco and chips and salsa as well). The burrito was a wonderful mix of tastes and textures. The shrimp was fried crispy I believe so it gave it a little crunch in addition to the wonderful seafood flavors. Definitely would come back. It's a great lunch spot and the prices were very reasonable, especially for what you get.

    Ordered take out. Got the fish and shrimp tacos to try out. The sauce on top of the tacos was the perfect balance. I wish the salsa they had was spicier but that's just my personal preference. The person helping me out was really nice and helpful. Got the food in a timely manner. The place was very spacious and had plenty of seating. Will definitely come back and order food here again.

    Wow wow wow!!!!Seriously when we stumbled on to this hidden gem,i was not expecting to write a review on clearly the best Mexican restaurant in the world!!!! From the moment we walked in and were greeted so warmly from the 2 wonderful female servers,through all the tastes of real Mexico we encountered on our culinary journey and the fabulous ambiance.Our 2 young boys loved every tasty bite ( very hard to keep them entertained and eating longer than 5 minutes)We are only in this area for 2 nights which is a real shame as I could literally move into this restaurant!!!!Might ask tonight if they deliver across the country?!?!Thank you so much again Baja Urban!!

(With a frown and clear doubt) He replied, "Bro, trust me, I used to come here with so and so and it was good.!" I said, "Really?, ok let's try this out." I was still full of speculation and hesitant. I then asked, "Where is this at? What street?" He replied "off Amar." I said "Amar?!" (That made it even worse...) LOL!!! For those of you who haven't ventured off into "No Man's land" of La Puente, Amar Rd., I will just say this ... you better know your street smarts. To my surprise we arrived and I said, "dude I have driven past this location many times" (I was still not impressed.) He said, "Bro, let me order, I got this!" I said ok. Since he knows I am a true die hard Yelper, I stood by and observed everything. To my surprise, the service was great. The fellas cooking definitely knew what they were doing and the food was very delicious and fresh. If you ever want to experience a fish market and restaurant that has a feel, sound and taste of Mexico. Then there is no need to drive 3 hours to the border. Just drive East, past the 605 Freeway or North 605 or wherever you're coming from... Just put it on your Navigation App. LOL!!! Just come with someone who knows true Mexican Costal Style Sea Food. You won't regret it. Just make sure your head is on a swivel in La Puente! LOL!!!

The customer service was terrible from the moment I arrived. My food was extremely salty, but I wasn't even planning on complaining about that. What really ruined the experience was at the end of the meal. I asked for water, and they brought bottled water without mentioning there would be a charge because their tap water apparently wasn't working. The bottles were never opened or touched. When I politely asked if they could remove them from the bill, I was told it was "already in the system" and was met with nothing but attitude. I've been to plenty of restaurants that would have corrected such a small mistake without making it an issue. Customers shouldn't be charged for bottled water unless they're told upfront that it's not complimentary. The lack of communication and poor customer service were unacceptable. Between the overpriced food, the overly salty meal, and the way this situation was handled, I definitely won't be returning or recommending this place.

Server is nice and so patient taking our order. The biggest table they have is for 4 people. The rest is for 2. They serve pretty authentic Mexican Mariscos dishes. tacos, tostadas, fried shrimp/fish. Variety of seafood plates. I ordered the Dorado Tacos de Camarones (shrimp) and the Camarones a La Diablo. If you love spicy you will love this dish. It has a strong spicy kick to it. I would say at a level 7. I love the shrimps covered flavorful chipotle chili sauce. It comes with rice and salad. The Dorado Tacos is a must, the taco shell is soooo crispy and filled with shrimps and avocado topped with their homemade salsa. You can hear the crunch from far away!
