We had supper here on a Friday night and thankfully they were open (considering COVID and all). I had the fried snapper and it was really good. My wife had the chicken medallions and also said it was really good. Margarita (the server, not the drink) was attentive and helpful! read more

My husband loves this place, his favorite are the toreados (open faced chile with carne asada and cheese). I enjoy their ceviche (big chunks of shrimp) and their chipotle chicken. The kids like their bean and cheese burritos and carne asada tacos. The bar is limited on traditional cocktails, they have the ingredients but the bartender was not too knowledgeable. The hostess and servers are always personable and helpful with menu suggestions. Although a nice restaurant they are family friendly and affordable. read more

Horrible service no customer service what so ever it was 9:15 and they close at 10:00 but still did not want to serve our family of 6 adults 6 kids and 1 baby said we had to be a group 12 or less but they obviously had seating available sorry ass people! Turned out to be a good night at Minidito they never disappoint!!! read more

Wonderful food and service. Would give them a 5 but my dish was cold. They corrected it quickly for ne.

Had a birthday party here for my Mother-in-Law. She wanted delicious seafood and that is what we all got. 10 absolutely satisfied customers at our table with10 different dishes. It was actually amazing that everyone was so happy with our ages ranging from 12-65. I tried everything and the Pesacado Entero Frito (Whole Fried Fish, Medium $16) and the Camaron Culiche (Shrimp Culiche $12.50) were so amazing. The culiche sauce is like liquid gold. read more

Found this gem by accident! I had the shrimp skewers and hubby had grilled octopus. The portions were very large and exceptional! The restaurant is modern and clean. We ended up in the bar area. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. Just don't ask for white wine other than a Chardonnay. read more

We went for happy hour. The margaritas were ok. The service was sub par. The food was overpriced for the quality. Ordered a dozen oysters. 2 out of the 12 were bad. They didn't offer to replace them. The 7 mares soup was ok but lots of added veggies and not as much seafood. We've gone to mariscos chihuahua many times and it's not as nice of a place and they don't offer a full bar but the food is much better in my opinion. I left disappointed. I don't think we'll choose it again. read more

We ate lunch here while waiting for our tires to be mounted. What a wonderful surprise! We had fish tacos made from red snapper and the lunch special...breaded red snapper. Both were very good....flavorful and tasty. The wait staff was enthusiastic and had great recommendations. We especially liked the house made salsa they served at the start of our meal. It was a bit expensive but otherwise a good value for the price. read more

I had a dinner called Molcohete. It consisted of beef, chicken, shrimp, nopale, cheese in a tomatillo sauce. It was outstanding. I would recommend it to anyone. The service was also exceptional. Thank you to yelp for helping us find this place. read more

Casa Valencia - I should've taken a picture of the food. It was delicious - Seafood Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

We decided to try this restaurant for Mexican-style seafood. The meal was pretty good and reminded us of meals we had in Mexico. However, when it was time for the bill, we found we were charged for not only our meal, but another customer's as well (also like Mexico). We were told the charge was voided, but thiswas not true. Our meal, and the other bill was processed on our credit card. DO NOT go here if you are worried about credit card fraud. We called to complain and were told we would have to come back into the restaurant with the receipts to get a refund, possibly, or a gift card. A gift card for their mistake? Why would I ever eat here again? Now we are worried about any further fraud against our account. Big mistake to eat here. read more

the food is very good but the staff is very rude. first of all i did a take out order and when i said i was doing an order for pick up they didn't even check but said it wasn't ready. next, when they brought my food out they sat it on the counter and proceeded to ring someone else up that had walked in several minutes after me. also, when i called to order food they were very rude and condescending. definitely has potential if they find new employees, but wouldn't recommend going if you're looking for hospitality. read more

For a Mexican seafood place, Casa Valencia is hard to beat. Really fresh and yummy ceviche, as well as other dishes like seafood soups and shrimp dishes. Recommend highly. read more

Place is clean and service was great. Food was meh. Ordered a shrimp cocktail, campechana, fish tacos, and then chicken tenders for my girls. The cocktails were packed full of huge shrimp, octopus and squid. The cup they came in was chilled but unfortunately the actual cocktail was room temperature and bland. The fish tacos again loaded with fish and coleslaw but they were so bland. The chicken tenders were overcooked. For $80 I can get a better meal elsewhere. We won't be coming back. read more

This is one of the best places I have had ceviche at. The marlin (smoked and shredded) tacos were very flavorful too. Chips and salsa were fresh. We will be coming back even though they are the opposite side of town! read more

Food was amazing! And service was also amazing our server Dilma did a great job was always there when we needed her! Thank you Dilma! Would definitely recommend this place read more

I have only been here 3 times and each time they are short on waiters. Each time it t as yes forever to be seated and waited on. The third time I had placed an online order for just one item, when I got there I was directed to go to the bar and ask the bartender for my order. Well the bartender, a girl with black hair and a streak of blonde hair wearing glasses became annoyed and looked on a tablet then said it would be a while. I asked how long and she hesitated before answering me and said ten minutes. I asked if she was sure only ten minutes if not I'd like a refund. She then looked at her tablet again and said "I can't give you a refund" and did not give a clear explanation of to why not. I was there for about twenty minutes waiting even after I saw my order sit on the counter being ignored by the bartender till she told one of the only two other waiters there to give it to me. Service and wait time sucks here. read more

Been driving by since they opened, seeing lots of cars. But now that we've been there, it is lost on me as to why they're so busy. We were utterly ignored for the first 10 minutes. By the time we got our beers, our few chips were already gone. Then, another 10 minutes to get a cold glass to poor said beer into. Asked for water, never got it. Asked for more chips, never got them. So, service was slow and unattentive at best. My food was just okay. But, my wifes shrimp fajitas were pretty crappy. Just mostly raw onions and peppers, and a few shrimp, with the tails left on. No spices, herbs or flavor. Her tortillas were hard and dry around the edges. Overall, a disappointing experience, and a waste of our hard earned money. read more

Ordered camarón bucanero, and it was delicious! Service is always 100% here.. very friendly and cortious. . read more

Casa Valencia - Had the cheese stuffed shrimp with rice, salad and fries.. really good! - Seafood Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I brought my family here for dinner and usually it is 2 servers for a table of 8 or more(we had 10) Thankfully we got Dilma as our server! She was awesome got everything right away for us and never had to worry about asking for a refill or anything she continued to check on us and made sure we didn't need anything. She was the best server I have had in awhile and we will definitely be coming back just for Dilma! read more

Very poor customer service. Me and my boyfriend were the only people in the restaurant other than the bar. They took forever to refill our drinks or even pay attention to us. Food was okay, not anything to come back for. Plus super expensive read more

4 adults on a sun evening about 5:30. Service started slow then was attentive. Food portions good and all the entrees came out hot, except the tortilla soup- barely warm and too many chips in it. Salsa and chips: salsa was excellent, just the correct amount of heat. Drinks were ok. Would come back again and try different items. Good to have an alternative to all the fast food on this end of Valencia read more

Decided to give them another try. Got seated right away and promptly received chips and salsa. I was thinking that maybe they had improved, but it proved that I was wrong. Drink order was taken and that was the last that we saw of our server. After 10 minutes, we tried to get the attention of any another server without success. One even walked around my girlfriend who got up, walked over and stood in his path asking if they could help. After 5 minutes of being ignored we left. We stopped by the desk and let them know that this was the most horrific service that I have ever seen in a restaurant. We ended up going to KFC. Save yourself time and go somewhere else to eat like we did. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. read more

A very good place to go to for Mexican seafood: large variety, copious portions, fresh & tasty. I've been there several times during the day, but not for dinner. Going solo, I prefer the bar where I can watch sports on t.v., but they do have a nice dining room. They offer a nice selection of draft beer & every month they feature a 'beer of the month' - bottled beer @a discounted price. Oysters on the 1/2 shell are available when in season & they have lunch specials M - Fri for a reasonable $7.50. Two of my favorite dishes are the crab tostado appetizer & the whole fried red snapper w/salad, fries, rice & tortillas. The waitresses are friendly & helpful... read more

This is a Mariscos. Husband always gets 7 seas soup and I get battered fried shrimp tacos. WONDERFUL!

It's like Mariscos Chihuahua but a cleaner looking environment. The food is good. I recommend the camarones diablas, if you seek spicy!!

Un organized servers. Would forget the simplest things such as salsa for the chips when you first sit down, queso fundido is served personal sized no menu size available for family setting. read more

Caldo de pescado is outstanding - lots of veggies & delicious stock. I also liked the beer batter shrimp tacos. Only con is service is a little slow, even when there are few customers. So far this is the best Mexican food I've eaten since I moved to AZ from New Mexico. Their food has just the right amount of "picante" even lacking Hatch green chilis. read more

I tried some of their seafood. I had one tostada de jaiba, and a medium ceviche. The tostada had no flavor, just some not so fresh, bordering frozen jaiba with tomatoes and onion. The ceviche was all snails (I think) which isn't a bad thing, that's more of a preference. However, for the price they charged I would expect more goodies like octopus, shrimp etc.. The portion was good, though. The service was good, the place is clean, but I'm not crazy on the food. Probably never coming back here, especially since I live on the North side, and this is too far for that kind of food. read more

I have to give this place a "Meh." While our sever was friendly, and it wasn't busy - we also experienced slow service. You could hear a lot of laughing and noise coming from the staff/bar area. The food was not memorable and rather bland. The calamari was most certainly out of a bag and over cooked. I couldn't finish it....and that's a first! Our impression was that the food was all pre- packaged, and not at all fresh; yet they charge as if it's fresh seafood. read more

The food is good and the place is comfortable. The price is relatively high to the product, but it may be just me. One day, while attending with my family, I ordered their Mariscoco, a combination of sea food, onion, Serrano pepper and their spicy juice along with coconut and coconut water in a cup. Since their portions are not that big (and it's important to mention that I am not a person who eats big portions), I decided to order another Mariscoco. When the friendly waitress came back with my order, I encountered a really unpleasant presentation: it did not have coconut at all. I was really mad. I let the waitress know and she told me that the consistency of the fruit did not let me see it. Are you kidding me? Even the most "watered" coconut can be seen. Obviously she tried to protect the reputation of the restaurant by giving me that innocent response. They basically gave me the same coconut shell as a container for product that can be obtained by paying less. It is important to mention that the coconut water was given to me after this discussion. An average person on the southwestern part of Tucson makes an effort to eat here and they rip you off like this. Sometimes these types of behavior surpass the flavor of the food. There are more places in town to enjoy Mexican-style sea food that are the same in taste. Next time I want to eat sea food, this will not be my first option. read more

It had been over a year since my last visit and it wasn't good then so I decided to give another try. Late afternoon, place was not busy at all; server was attentive and brought refreshments quickly. I ordered the fish tacos; please keep in mind that I'm always after the "PERFECT BITE". Unfortunately these tacos fell extremely short of my expectations and what I'm accustomed to... using Mariscos Chih and my many trips to Puerto Penasco as reference points. The tacos were bland! I asked the server for additional condiments and salsa (which was quite spicy, yum) to get them to the point of yumminess. It worked but I feel I should not have to work that hard to make food delicious. Will not be returning... maybe in another year. Thanks, read more

My family came in on a Sunday evening. There were only three other tables seated with patrons.The service was poor.The waitress didn't refill our drinks once until we asked and neglected to bring silverware or napkins. The wait staff were huddled around talking, paying little attention to their tables. The prices were reasonable and the shrimp cooked well. My husband had the shrimp albañil. The albañil had canned mushrooms and lacked any flavor or spice. I had the pulpo marinero it was a bit chewy and quite salty, when compared to other local mexcian seafood restaurants. My brother had the 3 fish taco meal with rice and said they were good. My son had the kids cheeseburger and enjoyed it. The fries that came with all of our orders were cold and soggy. The poor service and only o.k food is the reason we most likely won't be back. read more

It makes me sad to write this review, I had such high hopes. We had dinner there about a month ago and the food was terrific. The best ceviche I have ever had. Amazing. The service was not very good, in fact it was lousy and very slow, never asked if we wanted another cocktail, had to ask for our bill....but oh that ceviche. I thought about it for weeks. We went last night and were seated immediately,the restaurant was not busy. Chips arrived and drink orders were taken. After no drink arriving for ten minutes nor anyone to ask for our order, we left. I was so disappointed not to get my ceviche. Guess we will have to look elsewhere....too bad, the food was good, when you could get it... :( read more

Just stopped in for a beer and a quick snack, and left very satisfied! Had Negro Modelo and Dos Equis Amber on tap, which is a good start. We ordered a few tacos...fried fish, carne adovada, and carne asada; all were excellent! Their seafood menu is pretty extensive, and if the fish tacos are any indication it should be pretty darn good. read more

Very clean atmosphere with friendly, attentive staff. Portions were a bit large but welcomed. I went on an off day (New Year's Day) so I can't comment on the quickness of service on an average day. A little on the pricy side compared to other Mexican restaurants but you won't go broke. I got out of there for $25 per person with appetizers and doggy bags. They put a little twist on traditional Mexican food. read more

Tried this place yesterday. I had the ceviche and fiancé had the entree shrimp wrapped in bacon and cheese. Food was delicious, there was a live band who sounded good but we only saw our server once and she didn't come back to check on our drinks if we needed refills (we did). It also took forever to get our check. So food was great, service not so great. read more

My family and stopped in for a late lunch. There was no wait for a table. The hostess was pleasant. The food was a disappointment though. My wife commented that the enchiladas tasted bland, and my red snapper garlic fillet was drenched in the garlic sauce to the point that you couldn't taste the fish. The service was adequate, if a little standoff-ish. Our total bill came to $60+tip for two adults and two kids (7 and 2.) A bit overpriced for what we got, and the worst part was, if we never ate here again, we'd never miss it. read more

One of our favorites places! The drive is worth it for us, we drove from Rita ranch to eat here.

Great food and good service. Had the whole fish fry and it was delicious I was disappointed with the tortilla soup. It has tofu instead of chicken and I don't care for tofu. Everything else we ordered was good. read more
