    Mango ceviche
    Mary L.

    Esmeralda was the person that was taking my order. After having a busy week, I decided to get out of my comfort zone and try the ceviche place. It is definitely a hole in the wall, and deserves more recognition. Parking is provided, and there is a patio where you can eat there. Upon bringing my mango ceviche home I opened it and was surprised how much they gave me. To give you some insight I just ate two tostadas and I still have more than half of the ceviche left. For the price point of $25, I do believe you get most of your money for some fresh ceviche. Super happy to have this food truck so close to home. Shout out to Esmeralda for being so sweet.

    Aguachiles & Ceviche
    Daisy L.

    YALL!! Im speechless. This is the best ceviche in Austin TX. Better than el Bucanero & Seareinas. The sauce was so good my favorite was the green one. The service is attentive. The owner would come out and check on us as well as brought our devices to scare away flys. Ambiance - obviously it's hot because it's outside there's no inside seats but I feel it makes eating the ceviche all the more refreshing.

    This was the best aguachile I've had in a long time! The sauces were bursting with flavor and had the perfect blend of spice. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and true to the recipe. I also loved the green sauce on the side - it was the perfect addition. Along with our entrees, we also ordered agua de sandia (watermelon water). This was also very delicious and perfect for the Texas heat! We also had the opportunity to meet the owner, Sergio. He stopped by our table to make sure we were enjoying everything and shared some background on the food, which made the experience even better. Overall, an amazing meal and I can't wait to come back!

    Amazing 10/10! Everything was absolutely delicious and the attention towards us was so sweet.

    Aquachiles  verdes and the tropical mariscos

    Coming from vegas this was our stop of choice for some good mariscos. The food and service are a 10/10. Although a little hidden away it's the best find thus far.

    Best mariscos & ceviche we have found! Super fresh & very flavorful. Good service & nice outdoor seating area.

    Picnic área

    The food was so delicious, genuinely tastes like it's fresh out the ocean and properly cleaned. The flavor is one of a kind especially the ceviche with the tostito chips ! The service is humble and comfortable, and the owner was down to earth as well as his employees. It is an outdoor space, that being said they offer fans to keep the flies away, you can also take bug spray just incase you're sensitive to bugs, but don't let nature ruin your experience it's a 10/10 spot. Btw! also byob ;) This is the kind of place where the taste and the advertisements online are not photoshopped, the quality presented matches reality.

    This place is a hidden gem! The set up outside is super cute and the ceviche is 10/10. Definitely better quality and taste than many Marisco spots in Austin. A little taste of Mexico. Sergio, the owner, is awesome, too! Very attentive and friendly.

    New seafood spot in Austin! Mis favoritos fueron los aguachiles verdes; riquísimos! Ni tiempo de tomarles foto. Prices are good & outdoor area is fresh as the food

    Aguaschiles verdes

    Hands down best mariscos in Austin! Super cute seating area and great service from the owner. The food is always fresh and so flavorful.

    Tostada la carreteta

    Very good authentic taste, refreshing taste. The owner is very attentive to their customers. Will definitely come back. Green sauce is fire!! Tasty and spicy. A must try in Austin!!

    Amazing service! They were very attentive. Food came out excellent. I had been craving authentic Mexican ceviche and this definitely surpassed my expectations. The black salsa was very flavorful and is now my favorite. Can't wait to come back in the summer to sit in the patio!

Every single week we are blown away by the flavor, creativity, and care she puts into her cooking. Her meals are so good that we honestly no longer want to eat out. The food she prepares for us at home is consistently better than what we would order at restaurants, and that says everything. Each dish feels intentional, nourishing, and beautifully balanced, with just the right touches to make it feel special without ever being heavy. Every meal has been outstanding, and the consistency is what truly sets her apart. Chef Steph has completely changed the way we eat at home, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. If you are considering working with her, do it. You will not be disappointed.

    I never thought I'd be able to justify the luxury of a private chef service, but I keep this…read moreservice as a lifeline in my back pocket for weeks that we just need a little extra help, like when the demands of parenting and working during a global pandemic seem extra burdensome. So far, we've had three appointments, and they've all been wonderful. For each one in advance, you choose the time/date for your chef, three entree items and three sides. The "sides" is a bit of a misnomer, as you can often make meals of these in themselves. They include salads, hot breakfast casseroles, pies, and more. Recipes range from Mongolian Beef to Shepherd's Pie, homemade granola bars, Thai Chicken salad, etc. I imagine if we did this weekly, the options might get monotonous, but doing it every once in a while works out well for us so that there are usually a few new options that appear the next time we're ready to book an appointment. For each item you'll see an estimate on how much extra it will add to your bill in groceries in addition to the base chef cost. The chef will stop at your local HEB to shop for your ingredients fresh right before your appointment. You pay a $35 deposit, which you can get refunded if you cancel the appointment by the stated deadline (and they send you frequent reminders -- they're not trying to pull one over). On average with tip and the cost of groceries, we usually spend around $225 for our family of four. The meals last us a while. Sometimes we share them with friends who could use an extra meal, or sometimes we freeze the leftovers. There are instructions for reheating, freezing, etc. As stated in other reviews the chefs are generally efficient and very tidy, leaving your kitchen looking spotless, with a huge amount of prepared food for you to enjoy (it's hard not to dive right in). Communication by text is great. During COVID, the chef has worn a mask during the appointment and the service has had very clearly communication about canceling in the event of COVID exposure, etc. I appreciate that they're taking it seriously. If I had a couple of critiques, it would be that whatever process gets communicated to the chef regarding ingredients might need to be streamlined. The past two appointments, our chef has had to make a couple of grocery store trips because he forgot items, and this prolongs the preparation process. I would also love to see a bit more variety to the menu options. It would be nice to have it broken down roughly by type of dish (seafood, beef, casserole, etc.) and price (budget friendly or special splurge). Other than those minor tweaks, we love the service, and I imagine we'll keep using it as occasional customers.

Overall, it was good. The crab rangoon was the standout--crispy, flavorful, and easily my favorite part of the meal. The chicken and broccoli were cooked well, and the portion size was solid for lunch. I did ask for spicy, but the dish was milder than expected. The flavor was there; it just didn't quite bring the heat I was hoping for. This was a delivery order, so I didn't have the opportunity to check out the ambiance, and it appears to be takeout and delivery only anyway. The food arrived without issue. I'd still be open to ordering again and trying some of the other dishes on the menu next time. Sometimes it takes a couple of visits to find the dish that really hits.

The bar definitely had plenty of TVs, so if you're sports person. You could easily catch a game while here. One of the Table tents, notified guest of a happy hour for oysters, which I'm not an oyster fan, but hey to each their own. Had to try out the clam chowder and it was one of the best clam chowder I've had quite some time. You could easily taste the clams at a really nice consistency not too thin, not too thick and I didn't even have to add any salt to it. It was just really tasty. When the clam trotter was delivered, I happened to look at what other plates were on the serving tray ready to go out in one of them happen to be this phenomenal salmon dish. I asked the gentleman what it was and he said it was his favorite dish on the menu, so of course had to try it the salmon dish absolutely out of this world the glaze on it side. It came with it. Everything just fit really well together and y'all that plate was clean by the time it went back. This place is definitely on my shortlist as I really would like to try some of their other plates again that salmon and the clam chowder really made an impression and highly rate this place if you're looking for a good seafood place in Austin. The vibe of the restaurant was laid-back, but also very open, clean setting clean lines plenty of light and they even had really clean restrooms. The staff also was very pleasant and friendly with every one I interacted with.
