Went to Mariscos Costa Azul on the recommendation of a local. Was told they had great seafood. Not so my friends. Don't believe it. Nice interior and friendly staff. Home to the locals. Wifey had a shrimp kabob and other rice, fries and zucchini. Skewers were long, shrimp were small and zucchini was dry. Not a good choice. Started with chips and salsa. Chips were pretty banged up, but salsa was excellent. Fresh and hot. I went with the seafood platter. Was to have been shrimp, fish, scallops and octopus. Nixed the octopus for additional shrimp. 5 minutes after ordering was told out of scallops. Received a shrimp-fish stir fry with rice and avocado, and soft taco shells. Very disappointing. Sorry, can't recommend. Not a good experience for us. Would not return. read more

Best food out I've had in a long time. Service was perfect - had chips and a couple very tasty salsas immediately, steak and shrimp were cooked to perfection. It was enough for both of us to split. Great ambiance. It was so good we went back the next day. read more

Here I go again Yelper's, in beautiful Santa Fe, New Mexico, checking out Marisci Costa Azul, great seafood and atmosphere is the plus. Had to brush up on my Spanish as most of the waitress only speak Spanish. It was recommended to me by the desk clerk at my hotel I'm staying at and he was on point with this one. I had the Pescado Fritio and it was good..make sure to come out and support this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

This was our first time trying Costa Azul, i'll start by saying the decor brought a big smile to my face with how colorful it is. The service was great, our waitress was friendly & attentive. Mom had the shrimp cocktail and while she appreciated that it was loaded with shrimp she was let down with the lack of flavor and spice. I had the fish tacos and I also was disappointed in them, they lacked flavor and the fish just didn't taste very good to me. I also didn't like that the fish was diced up like tiny potato's and kept falling out. The chips and green salsa were great, the pico had to many tomatoes and not enough jalapeños for our taste. I'm not sure that we will go back but I did enjoy trying out a restaurant that I had never been to before. read more

This place is DOPE!!! My new favorite Mexican restaurant in Santa Fe! It is NOT New Mexican cuisine like the rest of Santa Fe, it's just regular Mexican seafood just like in costal Mexico. In fact, the name of this restaurant clearly states what kind of restaurant it is. "Mariscos Costa Azul" roughly translates as BLUE COAST SEAFOOD. It's not hard really, if you speak any Italian at all, it's very simple to understand Spanish. We found this MEXICAN SEAFOOD restaurant by accident, goin to the liquor store that is next door & walked over to check it out! SCORE! What a pleasant surprise! Beautiful, colorful, very clean restaurant with lots of different dining rooms with GIANT comfy booths for 8!!! I am so having my next BIRTHDAY PARTY HERE in those GIANT BOOTHS!!! Woohoo!!! We sat down & ordered some Michelada's (BEER with Clamato & lime) that were BOMB!!! LOVE the salt/pepper (sal/pimienta) mix that they rim the glass with. YUM! GET IT! Yes, the menu is in Spanish bc it's a MEXICAN SEAFOOD restaurant. But I am here to help, I speak perfecto Spanglish so I am going to give a wee lesson even a moron can comprehend. "comprender?" We LOVE a awesome whole fried fish! Here they have (MOHARRA FRITA) one like I have NEVER had before! It's amazballs!!! It is deep-fried in a seasoned FLOUR (gluten) mixture & comes with pink pickled onions on top that are muy bueno! :)' (very good) We also had a seafood platter for 2 that was BOMB! It had these yummy bacon wrapped shrimp, fried shrimp, pan fried fish that was freakin incredible & pan fried garlic shrimp that was seasoned so perfectly that they must have a spice ninja warrior in their kitchen! WOZA! There is a picture of all the food on the menu, just point to the seafood platters & say "ESTE plato de delicioso por favor" (THIS.PLATE.OF.YUMMY.PLEASE) & "uno mas Michelada" they will bring you one more BEER, don't worry you will love it. The "este plato de delicioso" plate of yummy, comes with the most incredible white rice & corn! This is no usual white rice & corn. No. Not even close. This white rice is so "delicioso" aka YUMMY that I had to ask them how they made it. The waitress was very sweet, told me they make it in a rice cooker! It comes out like perfectly fluffy, slightly sticky sushi rice! Amazballs! And, AND they pair it with this giant Peruvian style corn that is so buttery O.M.G!!! I was in HEAVEN!!! I had to come back the next night & have it AGAIN!!! When you want to come back the next day for the "este plato de delicioso" wave goodbye & say: "mañana más rico por favor" Tomorrow, MORE YUMMY PLEASE! Amazballs Moharra Frita ! Amazballs Garlic Shrimp - camarones al ajillo Amazballs Octopus - Pulpo Amazballs White rice & corn - arroz blanco y maíz This is all you need to know! You def want the WHITE (blanco) RICE (arroz)& CORN (maiz) on the side, it's HEAVENLY. When you get back the next day, up your game & just say: "habla ingles por favor?" AKA "Speak English please :) You will def get great food & service now. If you need further instruction on how to order the "este plato de delicioso" here please let me know I am always willing to help with the yummy ordering. My fee is FREE as in, "no dinero." No Mo-nay. It's a 7 hour drive for us to get to this Mexican "delicioso" restaurant. We can't wait to return, altamente recomendado! Highly recommend! Bueno Bueno! :)' read more

The food was ok but they took my wife's coffee enven tho she didn't finish it. They were even rushing us to eat even tho we wanted to at least a hour of Mother's Day the service was ok but they Didn't even offer more water or coffee Nice ambiance read more

Excellent Ceviche tostada and the shrimp enchiladas were very tasty as well. Definitely a must do..

Excellent food with a friendly not stuck up staff at a fair price! Finally a staff in Santa Fe that seem to love their work! We this place!

Becareful because they bring you the total then they add the tip, then they add 3% when you pay. They add $5 because I use my credit card. They asked me to pay cash to save me the $5. They are really committed fraud to their customer because they don't want to pay their own business taxes. They put that on you! Never coming back! read more

Small place with mostly locals, wonderful ambiance with festive decor. Service was excellent, our waitress didn't speak English so she sent one over that did. Fairly large menu, with both Spanish and English descriptions. Food was very good! We will be back the next time we stop in Santa Fe! read more

This is a place that is predominantly locals. Some dishes are definitely better than others but stay in the seafood zone and you'll not be disappointed. Something that I always find funny is that they will serve fries and rice with most dishes. A lot of places in Vera Cruz feel like this and most of the staff speaks Spanish. read more

Three locations that I know of all are consistently good, atmosphere and service are spot on.

This was the first Resturant we tried at Cabos it was highly recommended by 3 locals. I'm so glad we came here first the food is fresh the service was great the staff very welcoming. They served the food quickly and made any modifications to the dish if you needed it based on good allergy. EVERY DISH WAS DELICIOUS AND VISUALLY APPEALING. We stayed in Cabos for 10 days and we came back for 3 meals Definitely my go to place if I go back to Cabos! read more

This place is the bang-up bomb. Stellar quantity and quality of food. Superior shrimp yumminess! Seriously, the shrimp is excellent every way that I've had it here, but the fried shrimp is top notch awesome. My favorite dish is discada mar y tierra (pa'tragones). While I'm ashamed that I don't speak Spanish, the translation is freaking awesomeness... a perfect mixture of my favorite combo; what's not to love about grilled beef, shrimp, bacon and avocado. Living in Santa Fe, there's a plethora of excellent Mexican and New Mexican restaurants, but Mariscos Costa Azul's take on seafood is swimmingly first-rate deliciousness! read more

Another very solid restaurant option in Santa Fe. Tasty coastal Mexican served quickly with a smile. You cant go wrong.

For our second lunch in Santa Fe, we continued to try not to gain ten pounds on this trip by having some seafood. We have driven past Costa Azul so many times that we decided to give it a try. We were made to feel welcome by everyone there. The décor is classic, brightly colored almost clichéd Mexico. I really did eat in places decorated this way in Sinaloa. The chips come with some typical oniony salsa Mexicana and an avocado sauce that we liked a lot (well aside from the diced onion in it). It is creamy and thin with diced jalapeno and tomato. We have already made it since returning home. They also have Huichol and Valentina on the tables, my kind of place. My Tacos al Patron came with very plain white rice and thin frijoles. The rice is not worth bothering with, but the beans were fine. The tacos comprised carne asada, small camarones, a little tocino and a slice of avocado (see the photo) on slightly sweet, soft white corn tortillas. These were great and although the shrimp don't contribute real Sea of Cortez flavor, they were seasoned well. The steak was good and the bacon was not overdone to overwhelm the other flavors. I used the thin avocado sauce on these and enjoyed every bite. I would order these again. Ms T ordered tacos de camarones and they were very similar, without the beef and bacon. She liked them very much. We wanted to eat light and could have accomplished that goal if we had not snarfed down all four tacos on our respective plates. Costa Azul has a large seafood focused menu, true to its name. You could dine here a long time and not test the full menu. I hope I get a chance to go back and try some more. It goes way beyond tilapia tacos here. read more

After the waitress brought our chips and salsa she pulled the straws and threw them in the chip basket. There was a hair on the chips and on the straw. We made them aware of it and said they would bring another basket. They never did and they acted offended. The ceviche had no taste the discada was greasy will never visit this place again. When we advised the lady at the front about the hair she said it was my hair. My hair is purple the hair on the chip was not purple. They are over priced better places to eat in Santa Fe read more

Shrimp enchiladas served with a soupy broth rather than a chili sauce, not good...who wants enchiladas served in a liquid broth?? The flavor of enchiladas were not good either. They serve fries with enchiladas...what?? Give me beans and rice instead, please. And, they have only refried beans, no whole beans. The dish was a complete loss...wish I had complained to management about it. I will not return to this establishment. Oh, as waitress was taking my order, she was interrupted by another waitress, and suddenly I am talking to the other, new waitress...that was simply rude service. read more

Some of the best Mexican seafood I've ever had, and I've had quite a bit. I don't recall exactly what I had, but I remember it being excellent. Lots of interesting menu options. I would love to come back and sample everything! read more

My friend who grew up in Mexico took me to this place. Now this is my go-to place for Mexican food! The portions are always very generous. I can never finish my plates even though they're so tasty. I like grilled seafood and grilled beef and shrimp for tacos. The grilled jalapeños can be super spicy sometime. read more

Staff was friendly and on top of drinks. I was hoping that the food would be mind blowing for a little hole in the wall place. I don't speak spanish so the menu was impossible for any of us to read.

Good food. Love the fish tacos. Waitstaff is nice.Good service. One of my friends is hooked on the shrimp cocktail large reasonably priced at 11.95$. The locals eat here so that about said it all. Only gave it 4 stars because the decor could use updating. read more

Great food and good service, what more can you ask for? One piece of advice, take table instead of booth. The seats of the booth are connected to the next table, you might suffer from indigestion a little if your neighbor wiggles a lot. read more

We were doing some shopping on Cerrillos Rd when we took a chance and swung by this unspectacular looking building advertising Mexican Seafood. As soon as we walked in, the mood surprised us. The atmosphere was filled with gaity and color. Our greeting at the door was warm as our host took us to our brightly painted (and hand carved) booth. The exotic bird theme was very tropical and fun. We ordered a deep fried whole fish for my wife and I had a seafood medley soup. BOTH WERE GRAND!!! Our two lovely Latina servers were gracious and attentive and the prices were VERY AFFORDABLE. We are down in Santa Fe every month and you can bet we'll be stopping by this little jewel of a restaurant!!! read more
