I had a craving for a tostada caliente while I was at the office and came across Mariscos Pueblo Culichi during my search. It's a mariscos food truck, and I'm glad I decided to give it a try. I paid about $19 for the tostada caliente, and the portion was very generous--I was able to stretch it into two meals, which made it well worth the price. The food truck was easy to locate, tucked along the side streets off Main St where several food vendors usually gather. Ordering was simple, and the wait time was very reasonable, which was perfect for a quick lunch break. Overall, it was a satisfying stop when I was craving mariscos, and I'd definitely consider coming back to try more items. read more

Best ceviche, worth the drive. I always order the #16 at 2-3 times a month. If you like it spicy, ask them to make it extra spicy.

Quiero dar unas 5 estrellas bien merecidas, que sabor que calidad de aguachile verde y negro. Con porciones justas por el precio. Una pequeña joya entre tantos negocio de comida recomendado se tiene que regresar a probar los tacos. El servicio calidad sencillos, humildes y servicial se nota que es un negocio familiar. El ambiente entre semana se mira un poco vacío por lo agetrido de la ciudad pero el ambiente familiar de los finales de semanas se nota con asientos y sombra para probar estas joyas. read more

Had a craving for a cóctel and I found this gem on Yelp. Drove up and there was plenty of parking. I was briefly welcomed by the ladies in the truck. I asked for a cóctel with camarón and pulpo... WOW! Let me tell you, I'm pretty picky when it comes to seafood and unfortunately, in OC it's hard to find a solid spot! This place did NOT disappoint! The seafood was fresh and so tasty! They also took their time to make sure the presentation was on point. You usually don't get this from a food truck. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! read more

By far the best mariscos in Orange County. I typically order the Empanadas and Coctel 911. My partner and I have been coming here for years and were thrilled to see they reopened. Excellent customer service, delicious food and the baby pink food truck is a huge plus! We will be coming back very soon! read more

Mariscos Pueblo Culichi - Menu - Food Trucks Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Random food truck kinda on an industrial street with a couple other trucks. Seems sketchy to order seafood from a truck, but i took my chances. It was so good! I don't speak spanish so i asked a lot of questions. The man serving me was very friendly and patient with me. I had to ask for prices since nothing is marked. You could accidentally order something that's $25. I got one plain shrimp tostada for $7. Will return again someday. Only thing i would suggest is maybe describing the dish and list the prices on a website. They did have a QR menu but said it no longer works. Other than that, seems like a small family run business w great service and a cute pink truck read more

Super friendly service! Always with a smile. Food is amazing! Super fresh seafood. I got the green aguachile and the black aguachile. The green was the spicier of both. Tangy and refreshing spicy enough but still enjoyable. The black aguachile was on the sweeter side. Still as good as the green. Onions are sliced super thin and cucumbers are fresh and crispy. Portions are big. I had left over for my lunch the next day. Definitely coming back to try the fish tacos. read more

Would be 3 stars (pricing), but the quality of the soup and service brought it to 4. $38 for 16oz? Fish ceviche ($12), a governador-esque thing (?), and mixed seafood soup ($12-14) Fish ceviche ($12/16oz) It is ok, but could be better. I prefer my ceviche to be tangier. I liked how the fish was tender and quite plentiful, but they are smaller pieces if you're ok with that. I had to add some lime and green sauce to make the flavor pop a bit more. Might pass on this one next time. Mixed seafood soup ($12-14 idr) I've never had a Mexican seafood soup before. Bf and I liked this, they don't skimp on the seafood. There was one large shrimp with a shell, and a lot of smaller ones. The fish comes with skin, and the octopus was still tender. This is comforting and easy to eat. Quite a large container for $12-14 Tacos El chiunfo This is similar to taco El governador. It's a shrimp, octopus, and fish taco with a hefty amount of cheese and tortilla. Pretty much very fried and served with pico de Gallo and cabbage to make you feel not so bad. Eaten with the creamy chipotle sauce is very good. 3 large pieces in one order for $12 probably Ivan, the person taking my order was very nice. I utilized what broken Spanish I recall from highschool and managed to have a short chat with him lol Will come back for the chiunfo + seafood stew! read more

Both the food and service here is 10/10. My boyfriend and I were craving seafood cocktails, so we looked up places nearby and saw Mariscos Pueblo Culichi pop up. We saw it was a food truck, so we were on the fence to come because we kind of wanted to sit down and eat. Thank god we decided to come.. The pictures of seafood on the truck all looked so good. We asked one of the workers what he suggests, and he said the Coctel 911 (#9) and the Aguachiles Negros (#4). Since we didn't want to be too full, we decided to share the Coctel 911. I'm glad we did because their portions are huge! Inside had both cooked and uncooked shrimp, octopus and oysters. They served it with tostadas as well as salt crackers. Omg it was freaking delicious. Tasted so fresh and flavorful that every bite we took we kept saying "Omg.." lol. We had a restaurant that we would go to for seafood cocktails, but we both agreed that for sure this truck's is way better. I can't wait to come back and try other items on their menu. Only thing I would say is that it was be awesome if they sold beer as well LOL. Nothing like a cold beer to wash down the delicious seafood. But dang they do have a drink called Rusa that was very refreshing! It's basically just Squirt soda with lime and salt! My boyfriend was obsessed. Okay I need to stop now since I'm hella craving this again. read more

Wow this catering was amazing! I'm excited to go and try the rest of the menu. I am an absolute seafood expert. Flavors were amazing my fav was the ceviche mixta with the shrimp cooked in lemon. Octopus and ceviche mix. The salsas are perfect if you need to sweat out a hangover. For all spicy lovers hold on to your seat. The michelada mix is all prematurely made. Just add the beer and enjoy. Our party was perfect thank you Mariscos Pueblo Culichi! Spanish version: ¡Guau, este catering fue increíble! Estoy emocionado de ir y probar el resto del menú. Soy un experta absoluta en mariscos. Los sabores eran increíbles, mi favorito era el mix de ceviche con los camarones cocinados en limón. Mezcla de pulpo y ceviche. Las salsas son perfectas si necesita sudar una cruda. Para todos los amantes picantes es espectacular. La mezcla de michelada está hecha prematuramente. Solo agrega la cerveza y disfruta. Nuestra fiesta fue perfecta gracias Mariscos Pueblo Culichi! read more
