The batter is very good, the portions are big, and the ingredients taste fresh, very good spot to hang out and eat some tacos. amazing for a hot day The hot sauce is actually spicy Approach with caution, flavor on point read more

Delicious. Quick. Affordable. These are all the thoughts that come to mind here. There are daily specials, I came on fish taco special day but also got shrimp and a tacos dorados. They were all great. This is definitely a "hole in the wall" kind of place when it comes to ambiance but who cares when the food is good? read more

Local to me and heard this is a neighborhood favorite. Had parking lot close by across street so avoid the street meter if you can! Got the shrimp and fish taco combo and loaded fries. Really liked the tacos and was good deal too so big plus. The loaded fries were good too! But was smaller than thought for the price, but did come with more shrimp pieces than I thought so makes sense. Would come for the shrimp& fish taco combos, and want to get 7 seas soup next read more

Food was descent I ordered soft tortilla fish taco and shrimp crispy taco and fish ceviche. read more

Never disappoints. Their crunchy delicious shrimp and fish tacos are my go-to! But they have other options like shrimp cocktails, ceviches, etc. service is friendly, ambience is your typical L.A. (fish) taco spot, nestled in Lincoln Heights. Parking can be a big of a squeeze but usually not a big deal they have $1.99 fish tacos and ceviche Tostadas that's a freaken deal !!!!!!! read more

During quarantine I've had a lot of seafood cravings and have been trying various local seafood restaurants to support their businesses. This one has been one of my favorite go to spots. Really love their shrimp tacos dorados and the ceviche. The best part is that on Wednesday's the tacos are on special. Everyday of the week they have a special so it's really cool. It's one of the only marisco places I've also seen that has a drive thru which makes it so convenient and covid safe. Staff is super friendly and they provide tostadas , tapatío bottle , and likes with your purchase of a ceviche. Truly one of the best ceviche I've had and shrimp tacos as well. Would totally recommend them. It's a pretty small location but so delicious. It's one of those hidden gems you must try. read more

Located on a corner on Broadway, this is not a fancy place but the food is definitely worth the stop. They have seating inside and outside (2 areas) along with a drive through. You order ahead of time and they call your number when your order is ready. We ordered... Combo #1 Fish tacos Combo #6 fish tostadas These combos included a fountain drink of your choice, chips and grilled peppers. Everything was delicious! The restroom is in the back and they open the door for you for security reasons. Just to make things clear, I rate each restaurant/cafe/food shack accordingly to the type establishment. Cleanliness, food quality and good service are my personal priorities. read more

The times that I have been at this place the food has been great ,the cashier's have also been very friendly, it gets hot inside no air-conditioning the place is very small inside , I always get my food to go , parking is decent. Just make sure you lock your car because they have plenty of people that want your stuff more than you . But the food is great service is also great , so enjoy your next trip there read more

I recommend this place for their fried shrimp tacos and the ceviche de camarón. This place is popular so I usually call ahead so that my food is ready by the time I arrive. They usually say my order will be ready in 10-15 min and their time is always correct. They have friendly staff who are kind and willing to help. They have daily specials which is why I always go on Wednesday since their shrimp tacos are really good and on Wednesday you get them for a special price. They have a drive thru which is really convenient specially right now during the pandemic. read more

Shot out place lol, ordered a whole charola of ceviche it doesn't come with avocado, and you have to pay extra for tostadas or crackers. But if you get a tostada of ceviche you get both? Seems completely backwards if you're paying way more for a charola place is falling apart and the service is even worse super wack. read more

We come here for their daily specials.. because they are just too good to pass up! Mondays are shrimp tacos (fired shrimp inside soft corn tortilla), Tuesdays are fish tacos, and Wednesdays are taco dorados (shrimp inside corn tortilla, deep fried)--sooo good! We have also tried their shrimp ceviche and aguachile shrimp ceviche--both delicious as well, except the aguachile is too spicy for my wimpy self. They also offer roasted yellow chiles to go with your food.. it is the perfect compliment to their food. Their fish ceviche is not my favorite--it is a little too fishy and in too small of chunks for my taste, but from what I've been told that is how traditional ceviche is made. If you are a spice wuss--their green sauce is spicier than their red sauce. And the daily specials come with lettuce, tomato and a white sauce (sour cream?). If you're ever around this place, particularly Mon-Wed, stop by and try out their specials, they are only 99c-$1.59 plus tax a piece and totally worth it! If it is Wednesday.. I recommend getting five taco dorados! read more

This has been my fave fish taco spot even before moving to Lincoln Heights. The fish and shrimp in their tacos are breaded and fried. They come with shredded cabbage and pico de gallo. Its loaded with a good amount of fried seafood. So yummy with their chile and crema and a squeeze of lime. I recently started getting their shrimp tacos dorados (crunchy tacos). They are so good, too! The shrimp is stewed in a tomato-based sauce and stuffed inside a tortilla and deep fried. I can never decide which taco is my favorite so I always get one of each, 1 regular shrimp taco, 1 fish taco and 1 shrimp tacos dorados. They have a drive thru for cold nights like tonight where you don't even want to get out the car. read more

This place is a lil gem! The food is always fresh and flavorful! My mom likes to get a shrimp cocktail and as for me, I like to try different things! The tacos and tostadas are delicious too. Don't forget to check the special of the day as well! Friendly staff & and I almost forgot to mention... there's a drive thru! read more

Fish taco tuesdays all day for 99 cents! Taco tuesdays used to be a big deal when I was in college and living near a beach town. In comparison to the high quality establishments I used to go to, this place has fish tacos that are just as good! My brothers and I were hungry on a tuesday, so this followed naturally. The tuesday special price really can't be beat. The fish was deliciously fried and the tacos were filling. I'm a sucker for seafood, so I will definitely will come back to try their other specials! Parking is a bit cramped. There are plenty of seats inside and outside. The outdoor seating seems to shield from the sun more than indoors. *Update* Tried their ceviche tostadas (99 cents on Thursdays!), and they were good! read more

That little beach! How smooth she is: her sand is soft, her shore is fresh, her stones are warm, her colors are bright, the cotton clouds stop by and look, the sun adores her... For real though, delicious and inexpensive food. The tomatoes are wet and tasty, the cabbage is bright and crunchy, their breading is spiced just right, for the price it's hard to beat. The tacos dorados are a real treat, and their fish tacos are famous. They offer dollar specials Monday through Friday, check their menu for details, all of them are good. Totally recommended. read more

Coctel de camarón is gross. As soon as opened the cap it smelled like I opened a tuna can.

Amazing seafood and their fish tacos are the best. So fresh and great portions. Good food.

Customer service sucks , no gloves are being worn when food is being prepped and over battered shrimp don't goo thier

I've been coming to this place for many years and the food is always amazing. Great discounts on select items in the week, great quality fish, and there's that hidden gem special $5 taco special!! You get four tacos with lots of meat and a drink !!!!! My only complain is don't bother with being polite to these people they always serve with an attitude and the place is always dirty! So just take that into consideration Your there to eat not be nice to them Love this place read more

Reading the reviews, I was psyched to come try the 99c Fish Taco Tuesdays. A friend had raved about their Fish Tacos being large in portion, so I brought my boyfriend here to treat him for dinner. The place is not much to look at, with its fluorescent lighting; we parked in the parking lot, after turning off of Broadway. By the way, for you on-the-go eaters, there's a drive-through, just in case. As it's Tuesday, we both order the fish tacos to try. There was one other person in the restaurant, and the workers were cleaning the kitchen. Noticing a C-rating up on the order window (that should have been a forewarning), I wasn't too jazzed by the cashier's lack of attention (he was eating fish tacos, and talking to his buddies at the same time before finally taking our order), and the view into the kitchen as they sprayed chemicals and hosed everything down -- were droplets of spray going into my food?? Hello, Food Safety Manager...! We pick up our tray of food, and the fish tacos aren't *that* big. http://goo.gl/3PcxL There's a good amount of fish, but I was really expecting something HUGE. OK, Expectation #1 dashed. As I bite in, the sauce is tasty enough. And the fish is breaded and fried, yes. But what was disconcerting was a definite tinge of fishiness. My philosophy is, "If you have to ask if the fish is fresh...well then it ain't." I'm disappointed, La Playita! Fish Taco Tuesdays is your highly advertised big winner. Alas, seeing as I prefer to avoid food poisoning from old fish and kitchen cleaner, I was not won over. read more

I feel bad giving this review, but I have to be honest. This was a great little spot where the fish tacos were bomb. I went in this past week because my husband wanted some seafood but we didn't feel like getting dressed up. Aside from the fact that the food is not what it used to be, it just want good, two homeless men approached me while trying to eat. One was so close, he startled me. Im not kidding, he could have given me a kiss on the cheek. Freaked me out! I will not be going back. :0( read more

This is a great place to get cheap fish tacos for 99 cents on Tuesdays! They give you pretty decent-sized fried fish, wrapped in corn tortillas with lettuce, tomato, and onion. Pretty yummy! They have indoor and outdoor seating. Service is pretty quick too. read more

Man okay this use to be the spot but now they really have fallen below average bc the taco specials are not as generous, fresh or tasty anymore. I'm so sad. It was first they changed out the bigger shrimp to some small shrimps that was too salty and now the fish tacos Tuesday is tasting salty, dry and not as fresh. Old playita come back!!! The inconsistency of this place is making me not want to come back when this place was seriously a staple for me on mondays and Tuesday's. So sad. Ceviche party trays are still good. read more
