I love the ambience where you have to order amongst the crowd, eat standing, & orders being called out. It reminds me of street food decades ago. Oh yeah... the seafood & meat are great, too.

My bf and I stopped by Mariscos y Birrieria El Prieto on a Sunday morning and one of our favorite…read moreYouTubers suggested it. Ambiance: The place was busy but not overwhelmingly crowded. Just a heads up before you go, there is no seating. It's a standing-room-only setup with barrel tables throughout the outdoor space. You order from one of the trucks, find a place to stand, and enjoy your food. The atmosphere felt lively and authentic, making it part of the experience. Service: Service was quick and efficient despite the crowd. There was even someone helping direct parking, which made arriving and finding a spot much easier. Food: The complimentary consommé completely stole the show for me. It was rich, flavorful, and packed with chunks of seafood. Every bite had a deep, savory flavor with just the right amount of spice. It was honestly my favorite thing we tried. We ordered the Gobernador, the Negrita, and fish tacos. The Gobernador was loaded with shrimp and melted cheese, creating the perfect combination of rich, savory seafood flavor. The shrimp tasted incredibly fresh and was cooked perfectly. The Negrita was another standout, piled high with shrimp, sliced avocado, and topped with an oyster that added even more fresh ocean flavor. It was served with tostadas on the side, and every bite was packed with bold seasoning, fresh seafood, and great texture. The fish taco was good and made with fresh ingredients. My bf and I are big foodies and have eaten a lot of fish tacos over the years, so we're probably tougher critics than most. While it wasn't our favorite item of the meal, it was still enjoyable, and the Gobernador and Negrita were the clear standouts for us. While the prices are a little higher, the quality, freshness, and portion sizes help justify it. Overall, this was a great experience from start to finish. Between the flavorful seafood, and generous portions, it's definitely worth coming back again.

Not really a food truck. More like a truck with a trailer behind it…read more Whatever--this is OUTSTANDING Mexican seafood. The prices are high. Much higher than you would expect from a trailer/truck that looks like this. But the food is very, very good. We tried the lobster quesadilla, a shrimp burrito, and 3 street chicken street tacos. The tacos were 3 for $9 but were packed with delicious, fresh chicken. The shrimp burrito (about $15, yikes) was not small but not enormous but it was PACKED with incredibly fresh shrimp. Both the quesadilla and the burrito had an amazing smoky flavor to them. You can get enormous crappy burritos from any old taco shop for about $8 or $9. The shrimp burrito was pricey but terrific. You make the call. I would return.

The burrito came with freshly prepared pico de gallo with mango, shredded cabbage, a house chipotle sauce, and of course the griddled mahi mahi fish all wrapped in a soft warm tortilla. The burrito was quite tasty and the pico with the chopped and cubed mango pieces was great, but as whole, the burrito did need more mahi mahi because the burrito was just not generously filled as it should of been. The mahi mahi was well seasoned and prepared, perhaps a little over, but still was moist and tender. Regardless of the what I felt was a lack of fish, it still was a very good burrito. I tried all three of their salsa that came in the plastic squeeze bottles and they were all terrific and packed some very good heat. The gents who own El Shrimp Bucket are from Mazathlan and still have family back home that run and own a fishery that specializes in shrimp. They receive only the best Mexican White Shrimp from the fishery, so next time, I for see a pile of unshelled and cooked shrimp sitting in front of me.

Heartbroken and disappointed, I left and decided to drive further west to hibachi kings on third. I could understand having no rice if it was later in the day when they had served several customers but having none as soon as you open, makes no sense. The young lady working the front didn't seem too friendly either

When I got closer to ordering, there were displays of their offerings on a table and the quesadilla looked appetizing, so I ordered that with adobada instead. My hubby still wanted to get tacos and ordered two carne asada ones and two adobada ones. We had to get in another line to wait for our food and our order was messed up, but was fixed on the spot. Condiments and salsas were laid out on the side, so it was easy to get to. My quesadilla was huge! I'm glad I ordered it because it was very tasty and delicious. The tacos were small and alright. Since Tacos El Rorro is a food truck, I'd like to check them out again, particularly during non festival events.

The absolute best part of the meal was the fried rice, which was really good, but everything else fell short. I ordered the teriyaki chicken, but there was a really disappointing amount of meat in my box--barely any at all--and it didn't actually have any teriyaki sauce on it whatsoever. On top of that, the yum yum sauce came in a super tiny container, and some of the vegetables, particularly the zucchini, had a strange, almost chemical taste to them. Overall, it was just a letdown for the price. You could easily go to another restaurant, spend the exact same amount, and get double the amount of food with much better quality.

We were initially aiming for the crispy shawarma however only Mira Mesa and La Mesa does it. So I guess that's next on our list! The wraps were unexpectedly big! This is probably the biggest wrap I ever had! Generous with meat and veggies. Their wagyu egg rolls are definitely must have! Falafel fries is really good too! All of these perfectly paired with their garlic sauces. My favorite is spicy lemon garlic! The staff are very knowledgeable about their menu. It's a food truck set up and there's mini standing tables for alfresco dining. SG was definitely lived up to the title #1 restaurant in the country on Yelp!

Not really an ambience since there's not much as far as a dining room. There are a couple of cocktail tables where you could eat. After ordering online at 20:20pm, my estimated pick up time was 8:39pm and got the order at 9:03pm. The cashier informed me their chicken is taking a while and added extra time to the wait. It probably would've been faster if they weren't so backed up. I ordered the Wagyu beef and chicken shawarma plate for me and my wife to share. I added 3 falafels and pita bread on top of it. The food was still fresh when I got home 15 mins later. Everything was good and just enough for us two. Also, I'm not sure why there's a range of where they may be located on Yelp since this is just a food truck that seems to be permanent at this location.
