    Shrimp ceviche tostada

    Have heard so many good things about this taco truck and finally today was the day we made our way here! They're very busy throughout the whole time we were there. It's Saturday lunch time so prolly indeed peak hour as well. Few seats by the curbside and almost always fully occupied with new coming guests replacing prior ones. Nothing fancy with the dining space, but that's how you know it's good when it successfully drew the crowd. Worry not, ordering process and waiting time were both relatively easy and quick. They had plenty of menu but they're very helpful in explaining. We got their Mixta Tostada, Shrimp Tacos, and Ceviche Tostada. For first timer I'd say try the mixta as it enabled you trying all their shrimp, octopus, and fish! Toppings were all abundantly served and so so tasty and fresh. You could certainly tell how great was the seafood quality! Their signature shrimp tacos were the crowd's favorite, which was more saucy with cooked stuffing.

    DIRTY SHRIMP

    TRIGGER WARNING UNSANITARY CONDITIONS!! None of the shrimp are probably cleaned, so unsanitary. Hidden under sauce and fried shell is shrimp filled with feces. Thinking about every shrimp being this filled and my taco being filled with it, I feel absolutely sick to my stomach. They do two things at this place shrimp and fish?? There is no excuse for these poor conditions and lack of care for their customers.

    This has been my go-to seafood taco truck because of how amazingly yummy their crispy shrimp tacos are! Chef's kiss! The flavor = perfection. Their specialty habanero sauce = firee! The portion = 5 stars! Why I gave it a 4 today... they changed the ingredients of the crispy shrimp tacos.. noooo! It tasted like seafood stuffing, as if they were skimping out on the original seafood ingredients and adding more filler ingredients. I'm not sure when they changed it up but I was pretty bummed about it. Not a huge fan with the flavor now but despite all that, don't let that deter you from trying this place! Give it a shot. You'll probably love it. Support your small businesses!

    Mariscos Jalisco what a delicious place! First visited their Boyle Heights years ago and that's when I first fell in love. The tacos de camarón/shrimp tacos are so good! And, what makes them even more delicious is the sauce they put on top of them. Squeeze a bit of lemon maybe some salsa and you are golden. Also had their campechana which is a cocktail with a mix of fish : octopus, fish, shrimp. 3 is plenty, 4 if you are totally hungry. The service at this location was fast when we visited on an early Sunday morning. It is a food truck so you eat standing, or on the few tables/chairs they have or you must order to go. Overall great friendly service and even better food!

    Came to Mariscos Jalisco around 1pm on a Saturday during a weekend visit with friends in Culver. It's one of their go-to spots, and I can see why! The tacos de camaron are SO crispy and flavorful, just the right amount of spice. Friends said that they also package part separately for to-go orders to preserve crispness. There were 3-4 small tables and street parking when we arrived. The staff are fast, and you can tell it's beloved by locals. Wish we had a place like Mariscos Jalisco in my neighborhood!

    One of LA's best taco trucks - Marisco's shrimp tacos are sooo delicious. It's a fried shrimp taco dressed in a spicy salsa and avocado ; the tostada shell is crispy and crunchy! Mixto is great for sharing - loaded with juicy octopus , ceviche and refreshing salsa. Enjoy it with the tostada shell!

    Excellent as always. My undisputed favorite taco in Los Angeles. Get the tacos with a side of aguachile to dip or pour on top. This location is great because they take cards and parking is usually pretty easy.

    i love mariscos jaliscos. i could honestly eat this everyday. everything ive tried tastes so fresh. really good spice and theyre always so quick.

    This is one of the best shrimp tacos I've had! There's several food trucks and the one I went to had a few tables out front. I came in early, and I would say with a few people ahead of me, it took me approximately 10 mins to get in line to receiving my food

    Don't be fooled by the street and the surrounding area. I was hesitant the first time but let me tell you those shrimp tacos are absolutely worth it. I think they chop up the shrimp, Mix it with other ingredients and then deep fry the entire taco. It is served with a really fresh salsa, some avocado and it's absolutely phenomenal. I highly recommend getting at least two per person (shh I could eat four!) The Ceviche is delicious as well however I had the mixed seafood one and it was extremely fishy. I did not enjoy it, but have since gotten the shrimp only ceviche and found i fresh and flavorful. A squeeze of lime and drizzle of the orange house made sauce and you're good to go. I'm sure some of the other items are fantastic too, but I can't handle too much spice so I tend to stick with the shrimps ceviche tostada and the shrimp tacos. Grab a Mexican Coke while you're at it to really add to the experience. The service is fast and easy and they accept Apple Pay which is a plus :)) Just park along the street but keep an eye on the parking restrictions. The ambience is simple. It's a classic LA food truck on the side of a busy road and there are litt plastic stools and a couple tables. It's fun it's casual. It's tasty.

    Excellent food. Extremely fresh and tasty. Get the Poseidon Tostada if you like extra spice and the Campechana for a refreshing meal. The shrimp tacos are also very popular with customers.

One dish that doesn't work for me is the lamb chops, which is a shame since it's my favorite protein. I've ordered them multiple times with clear instructions on temperature and have found them overcooked and tough. The beef tostada was just ok.

Located between Koreatown and Pico-Union, this restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience from the moment you're seated. My wife and I both ordered the Mole Coloradito with chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. One detail we really appreciated was being able to choose between white meat or dark meat--a thoughtful touch that lets you customize your meal to your preference. The mole was rich, complex, and full of flavor, exactly what you would hope for from a restaurant known for its Oaxacan specialties. As a welcome appetizer, they bring fresh chips and salsa to the table, but what really impressed us was when they replaced the salsa with their incredible mole sauce. It was so good we found ourselves dipping everything into it. Both meals were served with rice that was perfectly cooked with a great consistency and flavor. For those feeling adventurous, give the Chapulines (grasshoppers) a try. They may sound intimidating, but they were surprisingly enjoyable and added to the authentic experience.

And I live in Portland, which has really good vegetarian options. First of all, I could eat like 75% or more of the menu as a pescatarian. I was thrilled and so overwhelmed because I normally don't have that many choices! First of all, the water was infused and was delicious. I browsed the menu and had a really hard time deciding, but ended up on the cauliflower rajas taco, the crispy shrimp taco & the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The waiter recommended the crispy shrimp taco, but I actually enjoyed the vegetarian tacos more. I love cauliflower and poblano so that taco was a great starter. So much flavor and a variety of textures. The tortillas were super flavorful too. The potato taquitos came next and I am actually obsessed. The outside was perfectly crispy, the interior was soft, flavorful & cheesy. The sauce complimented it perfectly. I can not recommend them enough. The crispy shrimp taco was really good, but I also tried a crispy fish taco and would honestly get that over the shrimp. I think there was mango or something in the coleslaw of the fish taco because it had a really nice fresh flavor to it. Last, I had the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The mushroom shreds & the flavor were just perfect. Again, as a pescatarian I have really never had Korean BBQ because it's so heavily meat focused. I truly loved this taco.
