    Oysters and brewskies
    Lorena P.

    Love! The food is always 10/10 service is always great, very clean. I highly recommend when you are craving mariscos.

    Tazón de Ceviche / Ceviche Bowl
    Janet N.

    comes right off the boat. The quality at La Capital Mariscos is as fresh as it gets--incredible flavor, perfectly seasoned, and prepared with so much care. The staff is welcoming and the vibes are great. If you appreciate authentic, top-tier fresh seafood, this spot is an absolute must-visit. Will definitely be coming back regularly!

    Chips and Salsa
    Les V.

    The reviews were great and the food exceeded my expectations. The salsa with the chips was authentic. The Tostada Especial (Scallop,Cooked Shrimp ,Octopus and Raw Shrimp Cured With Lime) was fresh and delicious. I tried all three house sauces and like all three. I liked that the cooked shrimp was not overcooked. Next time, I'll try the shrimp and octopus Tostado

    Best mariscos in SD, we've tried many items on their menu & all have been great. Service is great even on a busy Friday night. All the food is fresh and you can tell they care about the quality by the way each ingredient is prepared. The music is always on point, bringing us back home

    Had brunch here with a group of friends and absolutely loved it!! Not sure how we missed this small seafood gem! Trust the reviews. Might just be my newest favorite spot for all seafood. Service was quick and I enjoyed the chili pepper and citrus flavors of their food. Very clean and small but very busy so I definitely feel they are winning people's stomachs--one customer at a time. You'll definitely catch me here again!!

    This is one of our go-to spots whenever we come down to San Diego. We were visiting from Las Vegas and everything was really good. I loved the variety of sauces they offer, from the classic hot sauces to the spicier, more flavorful ones. The service was amazing. Everyone greeted us, and our waitress was very attentive. The restaurant has a true hidden-gem feel, and the ambiance was great. The micheladas were good, but a bigger glass would make them even better. It would also be cool to see a few more michelada options, maybe with cucumber, shrimp, or orange, to help them stand out like the oyster and shrimp plates. We'll definitely be coming back soon.

    Amazing find! We wanted to try a new Mexican restaurant and this place did not disappoint! We were truly pleased with the service and the food. We got the Gobernador and fish tacos, carne asada fries, dozen rack of oysters with ceviche and seafood soup. Just check out the pictures! Everything taste so good. The meat, fish, shrimp, etc were cooked to perfection. Nothing was overcooked. The only issue we had was the location. We nearly missed the restaurant (we didn't see the sign) but my husband called and they confirmed their location. There's parking in front and behind the restaurant building. The bathroom is outside the restaurant so you need to ask for the key. Will definitely come back here again!

    The freshest oysters in San Diego . I'm very picky about my oysters and I can say these here are so good.

    Best Mariscos spot around. From the aguachile to the tacos and drinks. Everything is amazing and authentic. So good that you'll become addicted and you will be back.

    ¡Qué riiiiiiccccoooo! Estilo Culichi no hay mejor hasta llegar a Culiacán. Delish! Beautiful location and service!

    Tostada Especial
    Honest Review S.

    Very happy with our experience here. The service was great, seated right away and helped out. We got a bunch of different menu items but our favorite was the tostada especial. So good and spicy. Will return!

    Food 10/10 The moment you walk in, you're greeted with the aroma of fresh seafood and the buzz of a casual, welcoming atmosphere that feels like a local gem. Karyme took cared of us and she was amazing. Definitely coming back!

    Super good and great portions .

    Staff is very friendly and fast. We went on Valentine's Day although there was a 20 minute wait it was worth it and didn't feel like 20 minutes. Definitely recommend also their lemonade with agua mineral is so good . Great for watching sports

    HEAVENLY. Ever since i've moved to San Diego back in December of 2023 this has been my GO TO spot…read more This place has such a variety of options including their salsa bar. The adobada here is insanely tasty, I always get the adobada tacos and I never skip adobada fries when i'm with friends. This place has never failed me with their consistency and great service. I could honestly not think of any cons about this place. Coming from someone who's been to every corner of the world these tacos are a 10/10 . If you like mexican food, these tacos alone will change your life. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    Tacos El Gordo has always been my go-to spot when I come home, and the food is still good, but some…read moreof the changes have turned me off a bit. The biggest change is the ordering process. You now have to pay first, then wait for your food to be made. I actually preferred the old setup where you could walk to the different stations, pick your tacos, watch them prepare everything fresh, get it packed up, and then pay at the end. It felt like part of the experience. We also have to talk about the pricing. I remember when these tacos were around $1.25 each. Now they're over $4 for a mini street taco. I understand this is California and the cost of goods has increased, but that is a drastic jump. That said, I don't want to take away from the food because the tacos are still excellent. I ordered two buche tacos and a quesadilla, and both were 10 out of 10. They don't miss when it comes to seasoning and flavor. The service is still quick as well. My only real complaint is the price. It feels overpriced for what you're getting, and honestly, it may explain why there weren't many people there when we visited. There were only a handful of customers inside. The food is still worth trying, but be prepared for some serious sticker shock.

Having the rotating salsa carousel right at the table is super convenient, and the peanut salsa (salsa cacahuate) was a standout. As for the food: * Pastor: Definitely the highlight. Shaved thin with crispy edges and great seasoning. Getting it as a Gringa with melted cheese in a flour tortilla is the way to go. * Carne Asada: Solid street taco, good char, and topped generously with cilantro and onion. * Lengua: Disappointing. It had a strong, off-putting smell right out of the gate that we couldn't get past, even trying to mask it with lime and salsa. The biggest downside of the visit was the flies inside the dining room. There were way too many buzzing around the tables, so half our meal was spent swatting them away from our plates and the open salsa containers. The trompo and salsas show a lot of promise, but management needs to address the fly issue and tighten up quality control on the specialty meats like lengua. Stick to the al pastor and gringas.
