Very dry over cook shrimp.

We were craving mariscos and found Mariscos Mazatlán on Yelp. When we got there we decided to dine in, but that turned out to be a mistake. The restaurant had a DJ booth and the music was extremely loud. So loud that my wife and I couldn't even have a conversation. After waiting a few minutes, we decided to ask for our food to go. Unfortunately, the food wasn't much better. I ordered the camarones cucaracha and they were very overcooked, almost like the shrimp had been deep fried. They were dry and had no sauce I was disappointed. My wife ordered a tostada de aguachiles verdes. The flavor was okay, but it seemed like the cucumbers weren't properly washed or peeled, and they didn't try to wash the shrimp it was also dirty. Overall, the experience was disappointing. Between the loud atmosphere and the food quality, we won't be coming back. They definitely need to improve their food quality.

When we went we were the only table at that particular time. It started to pick up as we were leaving. The music is perfect it makes you feel as if you are at a restaurant on the plyas and there is a groupo playing. It has a semi modern look to the dining area. The food was good the chips and salsa come pre seasoned and we're quite delectable. The food we got wasn't spicy. I wish there was a bit more spice to the dishes but they were still good. Overall, there are a few mariscos restaurants in Escondido and while this isn't the best it is not the worst either. It's worth a visit.

Mojarra Frita & Michelada
Mario V.

Went in for my first time to get rid of my seafood cravings, the one item I wanted to get was ACTUALLY on the Menu and such an important one, I'm glad I had the Mojarra frita it was perfect. The service was great and the ambiance was awesome. Also tried the camarones revueltos and a michelada. Easily a great spot to go for lunch if you want some seafood!

Amazing Food, great Service, host and servers always ready to attend. A fun ambiance! Good place to come watch the game.

AMAZING MICHE!!! I'm literally in love with it. Magical. 10/10
Bee L.

Best Michelada I've ever had in San Diego!! And I try A LOT of Micheladas! Chips and salsa in the beginning are very tasty as well. Perfect combo. Festive atmosphere! Must try!

Camarones Sucios

Food was delicious! I recommend the camarones sucios and the ceviche tostadas. The waitress was nice and attentive.

The best happy hour!!!! Best service and food in Escondido!!! Highly recommend it

My server Joel and Fer were THE BEST!!! on point and very attentive no disappointment, just delicious food and great service. The ambient was great

Shrimp & Pulpo cocktail
Kay M.

These guys get the 4 for the cooking quality. Calamari / octopus is a hit or miss for a lot of places but both it and the shrimp in the cocktail were nicely cooked. No chewyness. That is a big plus in my book. The ambience and space inside is ample, the view is nice too, even for it just overlooking the street. Nothing I tried screamed crazy good, but they were ok. They know what they're doing, maybe choosing other items could give me better luck.

Once restaurants can begin to profit again post-pandemic, I'm sure they will have the funds for repairs.

Pros: Nice staff. Aesthetically pleasing food. Music. Cons: Restroom needs some deep cleaning, but clean enough to use.

This is all pieces of fat floating on the top, it is NOT meat
Alejandra S.

Came to this place in hope of some good birria on a Sunday morning, so we decided to try theirs out. The staff was really friendly which is why I decided to give 3 stars instead of 2. The birria on the other hand was not great. It was full of fat, in fact it was mostly fat, and I felt grossed out looking at all the pieces of fat floating. We also tried the quesatacos and they were also mostly fat and the meat was really dry and unflavorful. I would say skip on the birria at this place. Update: changed from 3 stars to 2 stars bc me and my boyfriend both got sick the same night and threw up

TJ Tacos was a disappointing experience. We ordered 12 tacos, and the total came out to almost $59,…read morewhich felt very expensive for what we received. The tacos had very little meat, and the portions were not satisfying. To make matters worse, our order only came with four hot sauces. When we politely asked for more hot sauce and extra napkins, the staff refused. We were also told that only one napkin was allowed per plate, which was surprising. Even other taco places, like Frida's, are much more accommodating. Overall, the food did not justify the price, and the customer service left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, this was an unpleasant visit, and I won't be returning. I'll definitely be taking my business somewhere else in the future.

I'm giving this place 3 stars for now because my first experience was genuinely great, but my…read moresecond visit was disappointing enough that I almost rated it 2 stars. The first time I visited a few weeks ago, I had a really positive experience. The location was a little hard for me to find, but once I got there, it seemed worth it. I walked in craving a breakfast burrito and was helped by a very nice, slender gentleman at the counter. I asked for a ham, bacon, and sausage breakfast burrito and also requested that it be cut in half. He was friendly, said no problem, and within minutes I had exactly what I ordered. That burrito was delicious. The salsa station was stocked and convenient with self-serve cups readily available, and the atmosphere was nice. The people around me were friendly, and one gentleman even mentioned this was the place that used to be near Peterson's Donuts. Overall, it was a great first impression and I left happy, already planning to come back. Fast forward to today, Saturday, April 25, 2026 around 10:30 AM, and unfortunately, my second experience was the complete opposite. This time there was a young woman working the register, and from the moment I approached, she didn't seem very welcoming. I told her I wanted to order a breakfast burrito but wasn't sure what kind I wanted today. She told me the only options were bacon, egg, cheese and tater tots, or egg and cheese. I politely asked if I could add ham and sausage and pay extra, since that's what I had ordered before. She immediately responded that they "didn't have that type of breakfast burrito." That response confused me because I had literally ordered one there before. I wasn't going to argue, especially because her tone and attitude made me feel like I was bothering her just by asking questions. I then asked if the burrito could be cut in half and never really got a clear response. I also noticed the salsa station no longer had the little self-serve cups available, so I had to ask for those too. The same cashier asked how many I needed, and I said two. A few minutes later, another woman called my name and handed me the burrito. I sat down and realized it wasn't cut in half like I requested. At that point, I had to go back up and ask for a plastic knife and fork just to cut it myself. Which was not a problem or issue for me. I ate half of the burrito, but honestly, it wasn't nearly as good as the first one. The taste was underwhelming, and by the time I left I was just so disappointed. I ended up throwing the other half away after I left. Consistency matters, especially when the first experience set the bar high. The food was great the first time, but the service and quality were lacking the second time around. My honest opinion: if someone is having a bad day, they probably shouldn't be the first face customers interact with at the register. I may update this review depending on how management responds, because I know this place can do better based on my first visit.

We ordered a standard fish taco, as well as octopus, marlin, and smoked tuna tacos, along with a sampler of the aguachile. We ordered the verde, mango, and tres chiles. Pros: - Friendly service; our waitress gave us some great recommendations as we were overwhelmed by the huge menu. - The tacos were fantastic. The tortillas were lightly griddled and not too thick. The octopus and fish tacos were very well-seasoned and flavorful. The marlin taco was a standout--it was lightly spicy, smoky, and well balanced with minced carrots and celery. - Decent portions, especially the aguachile. Each sampler dish had ~4-6 shrimps. My favorites were the verde (spicy salsa verde) and tres chiles (tasted like a limey, spicy chipotle salsa) Cons: - I was not a fan of the mango aguachile and would not order it again. I thought it would be a standard aguachile sauce with some fresh mango chunks, but it turned out to be shrimp marinated in this overly sweet, gloopy mango sauce that tasted like a melted mango popsicle. If you are sensitive to spice, I would make sure to check in with your waiter before ordering anything. I thought I had a medium spice tolerance but found myself huffing and puffing like a chud after eating the aguachile, lol. All in all, would visit again if I was in the neighborhood!

We ordered and paid for our food, then went to the restroom to wash our hands. To get there, you have to walk through the kitchen all the way to the back, and that's when everything changed for us. Back there, we saw large bins of food, what looked like beans sitting out, open containers of chips, and food exposed with doors open. It didn't look clean or properly handled at all. The bathroom itself also wasn't in great condition. On top of that, there were shared sauces on the tables in open containers with spoons sitting inside, which didn't feel sanitary. After seeing all of that, when we got our food, we honestly didn't even want to eat it. We ordered birria tacos, carne asada, and carnitas. My husband didn't finish his food, and I didn't let my daughter eat any of it. Unfortunately, after eating there, I ended up getting very sick and was dealing with what felt like food poisoning for about a week, which affected the rest of our trip. The only thing that tasted okay was the lime water. I don't understand how this place has such high ratings. Based on what we saw and experienced, I would not recommend it, and I think it should be looked into for basic health and safety standards. We would not return.
