    Plato mitad crudo, mitad cocido.

    I love this place! I've been coming here for over 10 years! These mariscos are legit. 10/10 would recommend specially on a hot summer day. The charolas are my go to when I'm with my primas and individual plates when I'm solo. Must try!

    Found this place as I was driving in LA. It doesn't have an address since it's a food truck, but man this place has some great Mariscos. It's between E. 55th and 56th st. On McKinley, and apparently this place has been there forever. They're not there on Tuesdays, but they're there 10am-6pm all the other days. Now on to my review: this place is a gem. Their portions are great, and their prices are pretty low compared to other Mariscos restaurants. It's a food truck so there's no seating, but there's a wall you can lean on and enjoy your mixta or any other tostada. As stated before, this place is in a random location, but trust me, you won't regret going there. Some tips: It's Cash Only, and the guys speak mostly Spanish, but I was able to get my order in with no problem.

    I been coming here since I was a kid. My did introduce me to here. There food is always fresh and delicious. My favors place is the camaron crudo plate. It consist of shrimp cooked in lemon, onion, cucumbers, tomatoes and all the works. They are always busy on the weekends. It's always best to come during the week since there not a lot of people. I would recommend this to everyone who's in the neighborhood looking for some good Mariscos.

    This is a Campechana fría. seafood cocktail octopus, mussels, shrimp, and scallops. It had oysters before not anymore.

    Wow! I'm so hurt i havent reviewed this place! I thought i did already, i think it lowkey didn't go…read morethrough cus wth! Anywhooo, guys come! Please Visit!! 10/10 maaann I LOOVE this place. Their phone service is great, that's what lured me. That's hell of a bonus for me cus greeting and welcoming is everything! The place is small but the outside patio hits. No alcohol but you can order a michi mix if you catch my drift. Seems like it's more of a to-go spot but im not a neighbor and enjoy my time eating it there and fresh! I usually order ahead personally because i like my seafood cold and they store it in the fridge to keep it cold once it's done. My go-to is the Matacrudas. I sub the octopus for crab meat 'jaiba.' I've tried most of their sauces, traditional, aguachiles, negra, and just tried the mango habanero. I love how they have a scale for spice preference. I get medium which is just the right amount of spice for me. Their michi mix is reeeallyy good since they have all the ingredients there! Def not a 'bloody mary' mix that some consider a michi. Customer service is great! They are always happy to see you again. I love family owned places! You can tell they appreciate your visit and your business. The food tastes really good and fresh! The portion is more than a great amount. It's basically a botana and you always have extra to take home if you tap out early. Parking lot is really small but i always find a spot or on the street. Please guys, go check them out! I fucks wit them heavy. Everyone on instagram is always commenting or bringing it up in person of how it always looks good.

    AMAZING. So efficient, very clean, love being able to see them prep food at the bar area…read more Pulpo a la brasas - low key a must, octopus is so tender. Didn't care much for the rice/beans but not bad. Comes with blue corn tortillas, but honestly the octopus and almond sauce (think b*tchin' sauce) were delicious. Great cherry tomato pico de gallo. Scallop aguachile - wowwww the scallops were so fresh, literally bursting is my mouth. They were sweet, tender, and perfectly paired with the tangy lime sauce. Taco de pulpo - ok so this is pretty much an assembled pulpo à la brasas, BUT I will say the full meal was more tender because it was an entire grilled piece of grilled vs one tentacle. If with a group, def recommend getting the entree to split vs individual tacos. Smoked kanoachi tostado - delicioussssss the smoked kanoachi (amberjack) was the perfect glue for the ceviche. Another banger. I was at capacity at this point, but the only change I'd make is swapping the taco de pulpo for the ahi tostado. So really, Holbox did everything right, and was so good it's gaslighting me into how I could have ordered more strategically. I arrived around 3:45pm on a Sunday, and the line wrapped around the corner. Bar seats are FCFS, so use that information wisely...and you may get seated immediately :P

There is a private lot but fills up, and there's also adjacent street parking. I love sitting at the bar and seeing the plate being prepared. Also love the open freezers so you can see the fresh seafood hanging. Another standout was the homemade hot sauces! Each had a distinct flavor from sweet, smokey, and hot so it was really fun to try. The ceviches and the raw cold dishes were my favorite, especially the scallop aguachile! SO GOOD. Would order that 100 times.

    It's been a minute since I've have had a seafood boil and man was this place was worth the wait!!…read more I came with a friend on a Wednesday night and thankfully it wasn't too busy. As for food we got the Combo 2 and our choices were shrimp, clams and snow crab. We went with the Torpedo sauce for our boil cause it was a mixture of all their other sauces (garlic butter, classic cajun and lemon pepper) and we got it at a medium spice level. And oh boy oh boy did it set our mouths on fire but in the best way possible!! The sauce was everything we wanted it to be, spicy, savory, garlicky, tangy and just pure indulgence. To calm the heat though we also got cajun fries, rice, Thai tea and Jasmine milk tea. Sharing a meal with a friend is always nice but sharing a meal with a friend here is great. I believe food is the ultimate uniter and I'm happy we chose to go here!! My one and only con is just the location because it was a bit sketchy especially at night but the food and service was so good I think it's still worth it to go.

    This place is a decently sized restaurant in a small strip mall. There is a TV playing sports and a…read morefew advertisements of their food on the walls and windows. The menu lists market price for their seafood, but nowhere to physically see the prices so you must ask the waiter. I ordered a pound of head on shrimp in spicy torpedo sauce (their house combination sauce) and some mild cajun fries for sharing. The shrimp was well cooked and a nice aroma of garlic lingered from the chunks of garlic visible in the sauce. The sauce had decently chunky bits which adhered to the shrimp well enough and was delicious with a nice kick of heat. The shrimp were less than fresh but perfectly palatable. The Cajun fries were lightly seasoned, with a crisp (but not too crunchy) coating, similar to the exterior of an onion ring. They were great for snacking and whetted my appetite well. All in the food was good, but I just wish the shrimp was fresher to lend some subtle sweetness and fresh feeling to the dish.

The shrimp was plump and flavorful. What amped up the flavor was the salsa on top which was super flavorful and fresh and not too salty for me. I also liked the creamy avocado on top.

This is a food truck, but they actually have a designated indoor seating with ample tables and chairs and even bathrooms! Parking is street parking.

Mariscos Jaliscos is a simple, humble and easy going food truck that easily beats any sit in boujee restaurant. Their menu is simple and easy to understand. Mariscos Jalisco is best known for their Fried shrimp tacos however, they have one of the best aguachiles I've tasted hands down. Their shrimp tacos are absolutely amazing with the right crunchiness and soft fried shrimp inside. The sauce that comes with these tacos are jam packed with flavor adding to the overall flavors/texture of the shrimp taco. Hurts to say it but this might be my new favorite shrimp taco in ELA/Boyle Heights area. The service here is quick and friendly. I went on a Friday afternoon and did not find busy crowds at this food truck. Street parking is available and the times that i've visited other food trucks nearby i was able to find quick parking. Its a busy street so you will find people coming in and out of parking spots most of the time. I enjoyed my experience here at Mariscos Jalisco and will be coming back very soon. You all need to come to this place.
