Wow! The tuna tacos were flavorful, a surprise in each bite, and very colorful The vibe here is relaxed and fun, with plenty of room to bring family and friends The ONLY minor negative was how loud the GREAT Spanish music was playing over the restaurant's overhead speakers. It was loud! Other than that issue, everything else was AMAZING, including the GREAT service offered by our waiter. Our waiter, Fernando was very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Thank you for the tip-notch service. This was a very positive dining experience.

You walk in, it's open seating, ceramic tile floors, single TV, and a few booths. I'll tell you what though, what it may lack in looks, it makes up for in food and service. I ordered the fried fish for myself and shrimp/fish soup for my wife and daughter. The fish was moist, it was perfectly cooked, and wonderfully seasoned. The soup was a tomato base soup but the fish was cooked well and the shrimp was cooked beautifully. Not rubbery and overcooked like most soups. The gentlemen running the restaurant was kind and hospitable. Helped put together tables for my family and friends. Always checked on us to make sure everything was okay. This place for sure is a can't miss and I can't wait to go back. Sidebar, you wanna bring something to a potluck? Just order a large side of rice from this place. It's cooked perfectly and has that little bit of chicken flavor we all crave.

I always get the Full House sauce with mild spice, but with a side of medium sauce to dip into too. I know it sounds crazy, but trust me it's SO good and gives the perfect balance of flavor and extra kick. The seafood tastes fresh, the sauce is rich and buttery, and the portions are really filling. The fries and extras soak up the sauce so well too. I also like that the spice levels are customizable because everyone in the group can get what they're comfortable with. Service has always been friendly whenever I've gone, and the atmosphere is casual and fun for eating with friends or family. Definitely one of those places I keep craving and coming back to.

Ordered the Shrimp Star Combo and overall it was a pretty disappointing experience. The shrimp…read moretasted like they had been frozen for a long time -- the meat was soft and falling apart, which made it feel far from fresh. The seasoning didn't help much either. I also didn't like the sausage; the texture and flavor were both off for me. The only decent parts of the combo were the corn and potatoes, which were cooked well and actually enjoyable. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to save the meal. Service was another downside. I placed a takeout order and stood by the register for almost five minutes without being acknowledged at all. No greeting, no eye contact -- nothing -- even though staff were nearby. Overall, I wouldn't return. If you're looking for a cajun seafood boil, Boiling Crab is much better in terms of freshness, flavor, and service.

The…read moreDowney location didn't live up to the hype for me, felt like it was more about the banda vibe than the food. But this spot changed that. The tostada mixta had really solid savory flavor and the tacos sinaloense were on point. Definitely worth it if you're looking for both good food and a good vibe. Ambience was nice, good energy overall. Just heads up, parking can be rough. You can try Main Street or the lot if you get lucky. There is usually a waitlist too. Overall, I'll be coming back and can see this becoming a regular spot.

We really enjoyed the octopus tacos and the shrimp ceviche tostada - they give you extra tostadas and everything pairs perfectly with their draft beers! Veronica and the manager were very welcoming and accommodating considering it was our first time there! LOCATION: - Has a few tables inside and an outdoor patio with plenty of seating - really enjoyed the outdoor seating when it's good weather out! PARKING: - They have a small lot in the back with about 6 spots but plenty of street parking WAIT: -About a 20 min wait for a table for 3 on a Friday around 5 pm NOTES/DEALS: - They have social hour from 3-6 pm with discounts on drinks and draft beer! - Their paper menu is in Spanish but if you scan the QR code on the table or go on their website, they have it in Spanish + English!

They sell them on Tuesdays and Fridays, but they're smaller; I definitely recommend the larger ones! And the spicy red salsa is perfect. I'll be back soon to try some of their other homemade dishes.

It is not huge and I think a lot of their food is to go and they also deliver. It is super clean and the people that work there seem happy. The service is great and they are pretty fast. I don't know if they take reservations, we just walk in and have never had a wait more than 5 minutes. It is really cute inside and it is comfortable. Some of them also have outdoor seating. We love all of their fish dishes. They have the best shrimp cocktails and the ones we get have avocado on them. The sauce is great and the shrimp is fresh. Any fish taco you want will be super. If you get a plate of food it comes with beans and the best rice, it is not the orange rice, it is white and ever so tasty. It does not matter what you order, it is all good. Have fun.

My only hesitation with the food would be towards their steaks, which are often overcooked, dry and tend to be on the tougher side (despite me always ordering medium rare), so I do go elsewhere when I'm craving a tender, juicy steak. All their seafood, pasta, burger, and brunch dishes and desserts are top notch. Great beer selection, delicious wines and a couple of cocktail options. Definitely check it out if you're in Whittier!
