Heading down 78, and we saw this hole in the wall seafood place with good ratings on Yelp. Do not be intimidated by the exterior facade! The restaurant is super clean, and the AC was VERY COLD! This is a counter service place where you order at the counter, and the food is brought out to you. You pay at the counter once you are done with your meal. This place serves excellent seafood, and wonderful Mexican food as well! The hush puppies were good, but didn't have the soft, tender goodness I was expecting! I'd still order them again though because they had good flavor. The whole fried fish was great! I love the crispy-ness of the skin! The rice was very buttery, and well seasoned. the dish also came with fries and a side of salad! read more

Nice clean restaurant on a busy road. We were the only family in there for dinner about 6ish. . Two of us ordered the tilapia. Both had different toppings. One garlic and one ranchero. The tilapia tasted very fresh and we both enjoyed our meals. I could do without the French fries and just had more rice. Two carbs on the some plate was a little much. And French fries did not seem to fit the meal. Good proportions, friendly service and the place was clean. No nachos on the table or crackers :(. Came with a side salad but everything was on one plate. My hubby had the Ceviche nachos. That was not our favorite dish. It was extremely dry. We were served lemons with it, which was a first as we always have it in a lime juice with limes on the side. We had to ask for limes. I don't remember it having anything but pulpo. Not what we are use to eating. Disappointed with the Ceviche. No stars for that. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover. We were pleasantly surprised by this diamond in the rough. The food and service were great at Del Golfo. My son really enjoyed his catfish (not pictured) and my daughter loved her triple layer cheese quesadilla (not pictured). My wife and I enjoyed the Shrimp Tostada and Ceviche. Worth a stop. Friendly staff and thoughtful owner checked in at table. read more

Del Golfo consistently has the best fried oysters around. Their service is fast and friendly.

Had lunch on a day I wasn't feeling the best. Ordered The Del Golfo seafood soup. Wow!! This would also be perfect for a hangover. Also had the Shrimp Cocktail. So good! Coming back soon. Forgot to capture photos. Waitress was very friendly and the atmosphere made me feel like I was on vacation. Excellent service! read more

Food is delicious. Its noon when we we t there. The service is very good the waitress was a good server. Food is fast to served than we normally expect. And oh my goodness there chips and salsa was good. I'll definitely come here again!!!!!!! read more

This is always our go-to place after leaving Lavon Lake. Something about being in the water on a hot day just makes you want seafood! I had the Garlic Tilapia the first time, which I highly recommend. It was delicious. I also had the fried catfish filet and shrimp, that was good also. Very nice crisp on both. We were also served several sides of tartar sauce with our meals (very good stuff!). And if you're looking for some cold brewskis, this place also has that. Bud Light, modelo, corona ...all the favorite brands in a cold glass bottle. They usually have a game on one of the tvs and some other programs on the other two. Good ambiance here. The service has been good both times. They come around to your table and ask if you need anything and they've been so polite also. The only thing we tried that wasn't that great was the taquitos. The pork was unseasoned and it came out in chunks when trying to bite it. (Should maybe be grinded or pulled apart better). We'll be back again soon, I'm sure! read more

Camping nearby, we were attracted by the Christmas lights and the thought of some good Mexican seafood. Del Golfo did not disappoint. Ok, you do order at the counter. And yes, the food is served on melamine. I would point out that the same is true of every good seafood shack. The important thing is the food. My catfish and shrimp were excellent! Great cornbread batter, cooked perfectly, fresh and hot. Good hand cut French fries and home made tartar sauce. Very attentive service! We will go again. read more

Lunch isn't crowded. Great service. Catfish basket good Would like to try evening dinner Great space and many food selections read more

Great crispy wings! Yummy flautas, very meaty and served with fresh avacado. The people are really nice too!

Let me say this place is off to a great start. Clean, friendly atmosphere, and the parking lot stays busy. We ordered the Vuelve a la Vida, which is a cold, large glass, filled with a huge assortment of seafood with a tomato base. Very flavorful and filling. The Ceviche tostada was a nice Ceviche atop thick tortilla chips. The Fish and Vegetable soup was savory. I gave four stars because there are a few minor, but important details they should improve. We received plastic spoons, small ones. This was a disappointment. We requested metal spoons and they brought them to us. There is no background music, so one can hear every conversation and screaming kids are amplified. Overall Del Golfo is off to a strong start. They really decorated the inside and outside nicely and one can tell the staff is really engaged with the customers. The menu is straightforward. read more

We are always pleased with the portion sizes and taste , the shrimp cocktail , fried shrimp and catfish are hot and delicious!

It's a little expensive especially if you are wanting a seafood boil or large meal, but nothing there is ever lacking in flavor. If you like seafood this place is worth the visit read more

Great food and everything is always cooked when you order. Don't miss the fresh fried chips with hot sauce.

We have driven by this place for years and finally stopped in for dinner. I guess we were expecting a full service sit down restaurant. I had a half dozen oysters and some ceviche. Both were good. My wife was not thrilled with her shrimp. Maybe we should give it another try now that we know the layout? read more

Since my last review, I have been back. Catfish has gotten better, so I'm giving another 1.5 stars. I give this place 3.5 stars. Would give 4 stars if they would include a couple of hush puppies with their baskets. read more

I thought the food and service was good. I love Mexican seafood. We had oysters, shrimp cocktail, guacamole and chips, shrimp tacos, chicken tenders, and a michelada for $55. Super affordable and good. Will be back! read more

Just came to refute my husbands (tunedclawster) 4 stars. He's used to Tex-mex... the flautas were exactly what you'd expect from an actual Mexican restaurant. Great spot, we love it! Food is fresh and tasty, and the beer is cold! read more

I am usually a pretty hard critic; however, this place deserves excellent reviews and accolades. It is immaculate inside, which was entirely unexpected from outside. The staff is amicable and highly knowledgeable about their menu items. They make a fantastic margarita to imbibe with the splendidly prepared seafood. I give the service five stars, but more importantly, I give the food the same five ratings. Give this place a try, and you won't be disappointed. read more

Okay we drive by this place for a year and never even thought about going in ... actually we thought it might be a casino place like a bar or something lol but my friend tried it then told me it was good so we went and OMG it was actually really nice a the food is good too ! We have been back several times and it is consistently been good food!! Oysters are recommended!! read more

Ok let's start with why it's not a better rating. First let me say, it's a pretty good little restaurant that needs to tweak a few things to be a bad ass fish eatery. Silver ware. They brought my knife and fork on top of my food. What? Who does that? Next time , have silver ware on the table...not in my food. Also, bring out the proper fork for crab legs...a crab fork, you know the tiny ones. Ok, so my gal and I wanted seafood and to be honest I was hesitant to try this place because of the location. It's off highway 78 in an old Burger Island restaurant that was abandoned for a few years. Just not appealing to me, but anyways, the favorable reviews changed my mind. I'm glad we stopped in. I had a shrimp cocktail, meh...it was less than great. Served in a margarita glass, the sauce was really like a soup...I like a thicker cocktail sauce. I asked for spicey and it was anything but that. It was terribly bland. I would suggest using larger shrimp too, mind had about 25000 little shrimps. My gal ordered a seafood gumbo and suggested that it was very oily, but good. We both ordered the salmon fillet....it was amazing. Seriously. The best Salmon filet I have had in a very long time. Cooked to perfection and fresh. Now the sides...minute rice and an over abundance of veggies...they were good though, at least the veggies were...the rice..well thank you Uncle Ben's. Oh, we also had a dozen oysters and they were outstanding!!! Bravo! I have had oyesters at high end restaurants that were less amazing. Great job! And lately, we had a lb of crab legs...meh. over cooked and way to much cayenne pepper sprinkled on them. Please relax Mr. Powder sprinkler...you're too cayenne happy. Anyways, the ambience is nice, the service was great and price was amazing 60 bucks for everything, and we went all in. If they fix these little things, we will be back for sure. I suggest giving them a shot..they are a new establishment and deserve a chance to get better. =) read more

I don't know if they lost thier chef or what, but quality has dropped significantly. I had the cold seafood cocktail. The shrimp and octopus were so overcooked, they were hard and rubbery. The sauce was good, but the seafood had been way overdone. We also had the fried catfish fillets which were also overcooked to the point that the cornmeal batter was very dark, almost burnt. The restaurant was not busy while we were there. Maybe slow down or buy a new kitchen timer? read more

Just like it was in Garland. She had the crab legs(too much work for too little reward in my opinion) and I had the ceviche salad. They brought her an extra one because they said the others were a bit small. Really good food! read more

Only place in Texas serving both Maryland crab cakes and Mexican crab cakes if you order a day in advance. Not on their menu but should be.

We have passed by this place many times going back and forth from Rockwall to Wylie and decided to try it yesterday. All I can say is, wow! We wish we would have tried it sooner! My husband had the Del Golfo soup and man, I was so jealous! It honestly tastes like the ocean and so fresh! I had the oysters and shrimp. The oysters were fresh and tasted just like the kind we got when we were living by the coast. I highly recommend this restaurant and so does my husband. We will definitely be back. read more
