    tacos de pescado
    Amy L.

    watched one video about this truck on instagram and immediately went out to try it as it's so close to me. it's super casual with some plastic stools and their truck has a steel counter for you to eat on and the gentleman/chef was so sweet. but wow!!! my boyfriend and i were blown away with how gooddd everything was! their seafood was so fresh and even their fried/cooked ones were cooked and seasoned perfectly, the fish was flaky and the shrimps were juicy, and the chipotle sauce they add on their tacos is so yummy! heads up it is cash only, but they do offer zelle too. with everything pictured + an ice cold coke in the glass bottles it came out to $45. id say well worth it! i will absolutely be back here and can't wait to recommend them to others as well!

    Aguachiles and ceviche De Pescado
    Christian L.

    Everything was incredibly fresh and packed with flavor. The aguachiles had the perfect balance of heat, lime, and seasoning -- spicy, refreshing, and loaded with fresh shrimp and Scallops. The ceviche de pescado was just as impressive, super fresh and full of flavor with the perfect citrus kick. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. Great portions, amazing presentation, and excellent service. Definitely one of the best spots I've had seafood at, and I'll absolutely be coming back.

    I was craving seafood tacos from this place. So I arrived in the afternoon at order window. Staff was busy cooking/working so took them a minute to acknowledge me. I ordered 3 Tacos El Jefe and a Squirt (bottle) = $20. Tacos were good, but I remember them tasting better. Maybe they need more of that chipotle sauce and/or the female cooks did it better. Yesterday the cooks were men. They have a good variety of salsas and hot sauces. They are located near 5th ST & Haley. I might come again when in the mood.

    Their food truck is a repurposed tool truck.

    I was staying at a nearby hotel and looked for a place that was dog friendly. I happened to find this seafood food truck and immediately considered it. I saw the photos and the 5 reviews and I was sold. I bought 4 tacos El jefe and 2 fish tacos. The total was $21. There are no prices listed on their menu so I was a little surprised at the total. But, if the food was as good as advertised it would be worth it. Well, the food was just okay at best. It definitely wasn't bad but not worthy of five stars. Both items were forgettable. The seasoned lacked flavor, and while the fried was crispy and flaky, it too had very little flavor. The fried taco shells also felt a little stale. Each plate comes with a small packet of salt. I'd suggest you use it. Their taco truck and the surrounding area was dirty too. Flies in and outside of the truck, it was a little unsanitary.

    Fish lovers. Ceviche de pescado tostada. To die for.

    One of my all time favorite food trucks ever! I used to come here as a kid, back when it was a restaurant and this truck was parked outside for food to go. Not much has changed which is a good thing, consistency is key! That first bite of a very fresh ceviche de pescado tostada with avocado brings back so many timeless memories. The service is always awesome, you get treated like family. Give this place a try if you like fresh mariscos, they serve really great shrimp tacos, coctales, & tostadas. From what I know, it's cash only so be prepared.

    Shrimp taco
    Angelica H.

    Ordered: consomé (small soup), tostada mixta, fish and shrimp tacos and shrimp borrachos (drunk). Everything has its unique flavor and it's mouth watering and finger liking great so make sure your fingers are clean when you go eat or not. Lol Everything tastes fresh and nothing smells or taste fishy.

    I LOVE this place. Their tacos are so good and the ingredients they use really balance each other out. The tacos el jefe (with avocado included!) was one of my favorite dishes and the fish tacos were yummy too. The ceviche was okay but we got it to go so it's probably better if you stay to eat since they don't have to separate the dish. They were quick and efficient in getting our food ready after we ordered. I would definitely recommend and come back here again.

    Wow! My son and I Just took down two El Jefe tacos and a shrimp cocktail. My wife and daughter had the shrimp ceviche. Everything was on point perfect! This is my new Mariscos spot!

    Tacos el jefe .. too good

    We recently relocated from Garden Grove to the Santa Ana/Fountain Valley area and have been on the…read morehunt for a Mexican restaurant to fill the void left by our beloved spot in Los Alamitos. Thanks to Restaurant Week, we stumbled upon this gem, and we are so grateful. The hospitality alone would earn five stars. But then came the food. The tacos? Absolutely exceptional. The steak was tender and flavorful in a way that reminded me of eating throughout Mexico, you could actually taste the meat. A light, gentle pickle of vegetables on top, minimal cheese, nothing heavy or greasy. These are not the American-style tacos drowning in a pound of melted cheese. These are the real thing. The beans were lovely, the rice was solid, and my passion fruit winearita drink was genuinely a treat. Restaurant Week gave us the perfect low-pressure reason to try somewhere new, and we walked out with a new favorite. We'll be back for lunch. We'll be back for dinner. And yes, Taco Tuesday, we'll absolutely be back for that.

To make matters worse, one of our meals was completely forgotten. The service was extremely slow throughout the entire visit. Every time we needed something, whether it was a refill, an update, or assistance, the wait felt excessive. The restaurant may have potential because the food itself was flavorful, but it seemed like they were either understaffed or unprepared for the number of customers they had. Another disappointment was the drink selection. We were told they don't have a liquor license, so hard alcohol isn't available. Their sodas were canned, and when we asked for juice for the kids, they told us they were completely out. As for the atmosphere, the restaurant is on the smaller side and felt more like a converted house than a traditional restaurant, complete with a fireplace and television in the dining area. The food had good flavor, which is the only reason I'm giving more than one star. Unfortunately, the long wait times, missing meal, lack of drink options, and poor service made the overall experience disappointing.

It is next to a gas station. It looks like a pretty popular place during the lunch hour. It's a smaller place inside, but they do have an outdoor patio. We were able to find a small table, not too far from the front counter. Ordering at the front was easy. The staff was friendly and quick. We could see the cook grilling up the meats as we placed our order. There were at least five different salsas to choose from as well as cucumbers and a chili oil at the self-serve salsa bar. I noticed a customer in front of us ordered a kids plate which included two street tacos and rice and beans. That's what I ended up ordering with Carne Asada and chorizo. There were four or five proteins to choose from for the kids plate. I loved the grilled meats with the char flavor. It was delicious! Everything was well seasoned. I wish I would've ordered a third or maybe even a fourth taco because it was that good! I will definitely come back many times and it's going to be on our lunch rotation for sure.

The burrito was solid sized, I was definitely full after eating it. Great seasoned potato wedges inside, tasty egg, and plenty of bacon and sausage. Only thing with the bacon and sausage was that the bacon was actually bacon bits. I'm pretty sure they are pre bagged bacon bits, judging by the extreme salty taste...they overpowered the sausage inside so all I was really getting was bacon bits. There was supposed to be chipotle mayo inside as well, but I don't think mine had it. Or it was also overpowered by the bacon bits. Burrito was grilled on both sides and wrapped up nicely. By the time I got it, it was still super hot. The green and red salsas are also delicious.
