    Shrimp cocktail !

    I love love love this place !!!! The spicy red salsa really does its thing and adds so much flavor to the shrimp cocktail !! I legit come like once a month

    I loveeeee this place!!! The shrimp aguachile is sooo good!! I haven't bought anything else from here, only this, but IT IS SO DELICIOUS that I don't want to try anything else cause every time I come here I am craving this! I highly recommend this spot if you are into aguachile. The only warning I will give is if you can't handle spice, you should get the mild and get the spicy sauce on the side. They drench the spicy sauce with the aguachile so it is realllly spicy. Just a heads-up!

    I'm so glad to be living in the San Fernando Valley which I consider to be a Mecca for foodies like me. New businesses sprouting continuously, be it part of big chain restaurants, small businesses, food vendors, or food trucks. Mariscos Mazatleco is one of the newer food trucks out in the valley. They actually have two trucks, one located by Reseda Park and the other one by the old Toys R'Us in Sherman Way. I went to the one by Reseda park. The truck is pretty new and they do provide tables and chairs setup by the pool area of the park. I came here expecting to try the marlin tacos and shrimp empanada. Unfortunately, empanadas weren't available so I asked for a shrimp taco instead. The marlin taco was pretty good but was disappointed with the shrimp taco. I was hoping for fresh shrimps on it but what I got are shrimp poppers that were really tiny and coated with a lot of batter. Also I saw some taco pics with slices of avocado on top but I didn't get any of that.

    Saw this advertised on an app and lucked out. Tried two marlin tacos and expected them to be traditional fish tacos. But what I got was a huge amount of well seasoned marlin fish inside a double tortilla with cheese in the middle. well worth the $4 each. The hearty tacos were topped with avocado and delicious sauces. They were much larger than regular street tacos and two was enough for a meal for me. Notes: - Because it's not your simple taco truck, allow a little extra time for the beautiful presentation. - Knowing a bit of Spanish will help you read the menu.

    If your looking to get rotten avocado and veined shrimp, come here. Recommended by a friend and it's a no for me

And the Agua de pepino with a Tajín rim? LIFE-CHANGING. Refreshing, crisp, perfectly sweet, and that Tajín rim takes it to another level. Hands down the best agua fresca I've ever had, cooling the spice while still stealing the show. This place doesn't just earn 5 stars, it demands them. Flavor, vibe, service, and drinks all come together flawlessly. If you haven't been here yet, you're seriously missing out. I'll be back again and again.

    Cajun Ni Kuya is a Filipino Cajun restaurant in Northridge. One half of the space is devoted to a…read morefood case where you can pick up several Filipino dishes to eat at the restaurant or to take home. That side is named Kusina Ni Kuya and has a vast catering menu. I came here for a carry out from the Cajun side and picked as I did before, the half pound shrimp. The only difference is this time, I opted for the peeled version. This was prepared in the house Kuya sauce, medium spicy, with an extra of boiled okra. The dish did not disappoint and was consistent in texture and flavor, and a glorious mixture of spices as before. This entrée has a lot of oil added to it, but that is what brings out this burst of taste and satisfaction. Everything was soaked with the thick sauce. This time what I did at home was, I boiled a few golden premium small potatoes with skin, sliced them into quarters and added it to the mix. Once it soaked up the gravy of the shrimp dish, the potatoes ascended to a totally different level. So how does the peeled version compare to the whole shrimp version? I would say that the whole shrimp selection is the way to go. The meat is not overcooked and you get the flavor off the shrimp shells too, that kicks it up more than a notch. In addition, the fact that you have to use your fingers to get to the shrimp meat (though messy), heightens the pleasure of the dining experience.

    Let me be crystal clear--Cajun Ni Kuya just embarrassed half the seafood spots out there…read more Absolutely embarrassed them. I went in for the $38.99 all-you-can-eat, and what did I get? Not some sad, watered-down, reheated nonsense like other places try to pass off--I got REAL Cajun seafood. Properly cooked. Properly seasoned. Actually worth paying for. I ordered crawfish, clams, mussels, and head-on shrimp, and every single tray came out piping hot, drenched in that bold, garlicky, buttery sauce that hits you like a freight train. Not bland. Not timid. Not "lightly seasoned for the masses." No--this is full-flavor, unapologetic, get-it-all-over-your-hands Cajun. The crawfish? Seasoned all the way through, not just dusted on the outside like some lazy joke. Other spots--take notes. The shrimp? Perfectly cooked, heads packed with flavor. If you're scared of that, stay home and order chicken tenders. The clams and mussels? Clean, tender, not a single one questionable--which already puts them ahead of places charging MORE and serving LESS. And then the sides--this is where it gets ridiculous. Boiled okra, sweet corn, quail eggs, all soaked in that same sauce? That's not a side--that's a statement. Everything is absorbing flavor like it's supposed to. No shortcuts. No laziness. Just execution. And here's what really separates them from the clowns-- the quality never dropped. You keep ordering, they keep delivering heat. Same flavor. Same intensity. No "second round is worse" nonsense. That's what happens when a kitchen actually knows what it's doing. Meanwhile, other seafood spots are out here charging premium prices for bland, overcooked garbage and calling it "Cajun." Stop it. Just stop. This is how it's DONE. Messy. Bold. Loud. Flavor in your face. Hands covered in sauce. Zero regrets. If you leave Cajun Ni Kuya unsatisfied, don't blame the restaurant--blame your taste buds. I'll be back. And I'm bringing an appetite that's ready for war.
