Excelente!!! Yo ordene camarones a la diabla y todavía no puedo respirar de lo picoso que estaban pero a mi me encanta lo picoso!!!! Mi mesero Brian fue excelente! Voy a regresar para una michelada! Para la otra! read more

This is the 3rd, & LAST time I eat here. By far the worst service I've ever had. Servers are extremely slow & rude! I asked our server for more chips and green salsa, she rudely responded that there wasn't anymore salsa (keep in mind I went on a Friday for lunch @1pm). I then ordered a fried fish (mojarra) & asked them if they could cut it in half, server responded that they couldn't do that, that it was sold just how it comes on the menu!!!! To top everything off, I find a piece of plastic under my fried fish, on my fries. I definitely would NOT recommend this restaurant at all! Overall highly disappointed! read more

El Capitán - Plastic in my food. - Seafood Near Me - Houston, Texas

This was our first visit here. We ordered a small shrimp cocktail which had a beautiful presentation, but the flavor was bland. We also ordered raw oysters served with lime (I prefer lemons) which were good and fresh. Lastly, we had fish tacos which were pretty good but I didn't care for the Mexican rice and beans (the rice were dry and the beans were average). read more

First time trying out this relatively new place. Service was excellent and fast. Food was delicious. We had both seafood and fajitas. They were both great. Plates are huge and are great for sharing. We will be back! read more

Era nuestra primera vez. Sin duda, en peor servicio, las hostess con una mala cara en la entrada y las meseras/bartenders. No digas ni hola cómo está les ofrezco algo de tomar ordenas un guacamole? Primero llegó el guacamole y la mesa sin chips. El gerente caminando como un zombi mirando las mesas sin chips y las pasa de largo no recomiendo este lugar read more

We were in the area and trying to find something good to eat. It was my daughter's bday and she wanted some shrimp fried rice so we found this place online and decided to give it a try....The service is horrible. Our waitress took forever to get refills because she was sitting in the back on a table with another customer. We ordered our food. The music was so loud you have to scream to even try and talk. So if you want to have dinner here don't expect to talk at all. When the food came, my rice was cold, and the fried fish when the breading fell off it was slimy underneath. My daughters fried rice was soooo mushy and cold. We didn't eat any of it. Paid for the food and then took my daughter to eat at mambos right after. read more

Food was ok, music extremely loud that you would not be able to speak to people in your table. The service was not that good. Took them a while before asking for our drinks and order. read more

We were a bit skeptical about trying this place due to the reviews but the pictures drinks convinced us to give it a try . When we arrived there was only one couple seated at the bar and there was a lot of staff standing around ready to work. We ordered seven different dishes all were very tasteful. The drinks can use a bit more consistency We ordered a total of four pineapple drinks. The first one had an aftertaste of Sprite and little liquor. The second had more liquor and was delicious . The third one had an after taste of lemonade and the last one was good . The Long Island had no taste of liquor and taste like mostly sweet and sour mix . The cazuelon was delicious! read more

If you love Mexican seafood and margaritas, this place is definitely worth stopping by. They're very generous with the portions, you'll definitely leave full! And the margaritas are good sizes and very delicious! read more

Food Was Good, Band Was Absolutely Ridiculous! That Is Way Too Loud To Have Inside Such A Small Enclosed Space. Personally, SO Unenjoyable Inside. You Can't Even Speak To The Person Next To You Unless You Were Yelling And Even Then They MIGHT Hear You. Kids As Old As 10 Were Sitting At Tables With Their Fingers In Their Ears. It Maybe Would Be Fine If The Restaurant Was 3 Times The Size But Our Party Had To Move To The Outside Patio. Service Was Ok. The Hookah Guy And Outside DJ Saved It For Us... And The Fact That We Didn't Have To LITERALLY Yell To Speak To One Another Out There Was A Plus. read more

The food is ok. The cocktail is on the salty side for me but that's nothing compared to the insanely loud music. It's unbearable I really don't understand how the staff handles that crap. Vida mariscos also plays music but it's never as loud as this place. read more

If you have time to waste come here, food was cold not good, only time you get service is when they sit you down on your table then they forget about you. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone your better off going to Wendy's next door. read more

Good food and service. Nice location. The Banda is a too too loud for the inside of the restaurant.

They took our patio heater, how can you be successful when you have a Mexican't attitude. Danny Trejo would be disappointed and I'm cold

First off the music was so loud that you couldn't even hear your server screaming at you. We sat at the bar and the waitress was so hard to hear, and she was definitely not interested in being professional. Rolling her eyes at us, taking a beer before it was empty, and almost handing our card to someone else at the bar after just taking it from us. Besides losing my hearing and the rude service, the food was disappointing. I ordered tacos and it came with just meat and a tortilla. No toppings, nothing. Absolutely not worth the price we paid. read more

Music is great. Obviously its going to be loud in the restaurant. Our waitress was awesome but the food took over 30 minutes. We waited so long for the food and it was super bland. The drinks were great but we got charged $120 for 5 shots... too expensive. I'd rather go to Vida & pay more for better quality food. read more

Food is not that good. In a table of 8 nobody liked the food. Music is way too loud. Service is bad. Food takes way too long to be served. The rice taste so plain, it had tiny little bitty shrimp. It's too expensive for what you're paying for. NOT WORTH IT! read more

I give 5 starts because of the service that Mr. NORBERTO provide to us , it was our first time at this place food was good and the amount was okay , but I did love his service very friendly, polite, professional and attentive , I'm not sure if he was our server because a waitress was taking care of us as well. We will request him in our next visit. Thank you. read more

Wanted to try something new and we found a coupon on restaurants.com, which of course was not accepted but regardless we were happy with the selection of food and drinks! The food was good and the drinks were great with reasonable prices. The hostess was nice and welcoming! Our waitress was great and friendly as well! Good for a variety of micheladas preparadas and margaritas. Will definitely be stopping by again! read more

The longer I stayed the more I loved it. The service was awesome the manager was super friendly he made sure to walk around and help wherever needed, he gave me great food recommendations as well as drink recommendations. I went on a weekend and the live music was honestly what did it for me they played really good and really lit up the place. 100% recommend!!! read more

Do not recommend, sketchy skewed business, we were just there for fun and it turned out to be a nasty, cheating not fun environment. Not sure if owners are aware but the waitress and staff are running their own business even the entertaining lady I'm sure the owner knows and is allowing this, no wonder is an empty restaurant. First and last time we go there, you have lost good clients. We were truly only there for a good time but it was disappointing to see the place turn into a battlefield for a simple fun karaoke contest. We can only say our fair waiter Mr. Omberto was excellent all the other waitress, staff were even yelling at us haha they even had underage children after 10pm around alcohol, not sure if that's illegal or not. But trust me we are not ever coming back and we are spreading the word. Muy mala experiencia, no recomendado el lugar. Fuimos por una noche divertida y se volvió en una noche desagradable Gracias a él fraude que tienen las meseras, y su gente. Era solo una competencia de karaoke divertida y se pusieron muy mala onda por nada, lo único que hicieron fue que NO nos quedaran ganas de regresar. Perdieron unos buenos clientes, y seguirán perdiendo por lo que están haciendo. Nada recomendado. read more

Food was ok the band is super loud and very expensive I believe it's $50 for three songs and didn't like that they add the tip in themselves when checking out very overpriced! Not going again ... read more

Andrea and Bryan have great service every time we come and visit, great vibes, great drinks, great sushi

I had the epineaoplt stuffed with cheese and shrimp which was amazing . Service was fast and friendly . There were two large cluster of people at that were drinking and partying and not wearing masks, was not impressed with that. . Waiters wore mask, food was excellent.Will return after quarantine. read more

This place has amazing food, drinks, and the service is amazing our server Dixia was great!!! but the karaoke sucks !! This girl plays music that she sings good to only, oldies like way back in the day, I wanted to sleep during this music it's for drunk old people. I came on a Friday night I was told to come on Saturday so we will see, I'll come back on a Saturday just because the service was great but really not the way I wanted to spend my Friday. If you're looking for ambiance don't come here, if you're looking for good food then this is your place . read more

Alejandro, muchas gracias por tu espléndido servicio. Nos atendiste de la mejor manera posible.

This place was okay this is my first and last time going here ! The food is bland I got fried shrimp and my boyfriend got fried fish and both came with rice. My rice was nasty and so was his it was undercooked and nasty. And the service was horrible we had no one come greet us for like 20 mins , AND IT WASNT EVEN BUSY. We had to go up to the host to even get a server go up to us. read more

Amazing food selection with reasonable prices. Food and ambiance is great definitely recommend

I really enjoyed this place for the drinks, they have $5 large margs for happy hour & the food was pleasantly good too.

Ahora entiendo porque las malas reviews, primera y última vez que vengo. No se puede ni platicar y la comida no tiene sabor. Prefiero comer unos tacos de huevito con jamón. Mi abuela que no ve cocina mejor. Y todavía te cobran la gratitud más cara de lo que pides read more

Went for the first time and I must say the food was great drinks were good and the portions are large!!! Definitely going back! The green salsa is amazing too. read more

The food was very distasteful and so was the customer service I can't believe a restaurant like this is even still in business this was the worst experience I've ever had they really need to get new management and new employees that want to work this has been a rhetorical thing and I believe that they are a little bit racist sorry to say but hey Black Lives Matter! read more
