This is a Mexican Seafood restaurant that my husband and I love. It is family owned and run and they have wonderful food and great service. We are big seafood fans and this place is definitely a seafood lovers dream! We have tasted a few of their dishes and they are all excellent - very tasty, and not greasy. To start, they have the best beans and guacamole and really good tortillas. I don't even like beans and theirs are so yummy to me. They also have very tasty tacos. I think they are known for their Marlin Tacos, which are very good, but we also love the Shrimp Tacos and the Steak & Shrimp Tacos. My absolute favorite is their Poblano sauce...I could eat that stuff like soup, it's so damn good! We had it over shrimp and it was heavenly. Their rice is also very good...I'm very picky about my rice and Mazatlan's gets a definite thumbs-up. They also make the most delicious Mexican Bread Pudding. This is only served during lent, so make sure you get it before it's gone. You can taste the homemade freshness and hard work put into every layer of the bread pudding. I can't say enough good things about Mazatlan. If you want a casual night out with great food...go try it there, your belly will thank you! read more

Foods not as good as it use to be. A lot has changed in time.... even their customer service. Plus they're over priced. Honestly use to love this place but it has really taken a dump.... from the restaurant decor & food to their customer service. Giving them 2 stars since we were offered a small bowl of hot shrimp soup. read more

The worst place to come and eat,both my sons got so sic from their tacos de marlin.the had vomiting diarrea and stomach pain.dont go there

Love this place! Very casual & laid back. Not very big, but there's enough room to do what you need to do, which is sit down and get your grub on!!! Marlin tacos - WOW! (make sure to ask for the two sauces that go with these. One is habanero & the other is best described as being like Hoisin sauce, just not sweet - dark brown, not spicy, but goes perfect with the habanero sauce y some lime) Shrimp tacos - WOW! (the refried beans they serve with these are just not fair!) Aguas Chiles - Didn't think I knew about that, didja? ;-) Curvy Waitresses in tight, short skirts wearing big smiles on their faces??? - AM I IN THE RIGHT PLACE?!?! (Had to say it!) YOU DON'T GO TO HOOTERS JUST FOR THE WINGS, DO YOU!?!?!? :-P In all seriousness, they are very attentive and they always seem to show up right when you need something! Order anything. I dare you not to like it. @ Ivan R. - Good lookin' out on the Tacos de Governador suggestion. I'm going to have that next time I slide thru! read more

Excellent service! They give chips and salsa (green and red - my favorite). Authentic Sinaloa style food. Excellent Marlin tacos served with beans and the tacos gobernador are so tasty! Add their homemade Salsa Negra and you're in for a treat! Delicious... I had the tostada mixta with their home made Piquín sauce. Perfect level of spiciness and adds so much taste to your already fresh seafood. If you're in the mood for something spicy try the Camarones Cucarachas. read more

Mazatlan Restaurant - Tostada Mixta - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Es mejor si puede hablar en espanol... But if you don't I think they speak English a little...I could tell the waitresses were more comfortable in English. They thought it was funny this Chino could speak Spanish though. It's a little hole in the wall. Not dirty. Definitely a tshirt type of place. The waitresses where tights under short tight shirts...not sure if they should...but who am I too judge. With all that food around, who can blame them for getting a little big for a man with skinny tastes? Anyway, they were great, friendly and helpful. One of them suggested the shrimp wrapped in bacon and I also ordered enchiladas suizas cuz I love them. The shrimp were large (20-25 per pound size) and decently fresh in taste and consistency. as described, they were wrapped in crispy bacon. What they didn't mention is that they put it all over a bed of Frendch Fries. You can't really go wrong here as long as you can get the shrimp cooked well and they did. A nice dish...not fancy, but very filling and flavorful. It came with salad and flour tortillas. B loved it, but she loves anything with bacon. If you want to clog your arteries, this is a delicious way to do it. Enchiladas suizas are my favorite and these were really good. A nice green sauce with cream over tender, shredded chicken rolled up in corn tortillas. It was moist, cheesy and had just the right amount of spice to keep my palate interested but not overwhelmed. Overall, great spot and one I'll be back to if I am ever again in Paramount (shudder). read more

Mazatlan is a total hole in the wall spot, but don't let that fool you. Food here is legit and super authentic. Tried their Smoked Marlin Tacos, soooo good reminds me of the ones I had in Cabos. The taco shell is slightly toasted, making a nice crunch and comes w/ a side of refried beans. They have a couple type of salsas to go along with your food, beware of the red sauce, spicy but good! Must try, their octopus cerviche, super soft and tasty! read more

I love this place, great lookin staff and great food. 100 percent mexican. Every once in a while when i crave bomb ass seafood i come here and never let down. You like spicy? Try the camarones a la diabla, woooo weeeee spicy as a mf but too delicious to pass up read more

Overpriced for the quality. I understand that we are in a pandemic, but I would never use that as an excuse to serve the quality of food. It was nearly 40 dollars for one ceviche, some tacos, and a drink. I don't mind paying for food as long as the quality is worth it. read more

We were visiting friends in Long Beach and they introduced us to this little local gem! I honestly had the BEST authentic Mexican seafood I've ever had. Incredible ceviche, fabulous tacos, shrimp, awesome house-made chips (still warm from cooking!) and salsa. I'm still thinking about their cheese flan and how I can possibly haul a bunch home with me to Arizona! Amazing! read more

The food there is very good! delicious mariscos. Love the atmosphere & the music playing in the backround. Pretty waitresses but there is this one female who always got attitude & everytime i go there with my man she ignores/forgets us. Maybe she always has a bad day... who knows, but its called customer service!! which she lacks! read more

Mazatlan Restaurant - Best ceviche ever!! with some micheladas - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

The Marlin tacos are good Marlin quesadilla is good. Server and people behind the counter make you feel welcomed. Friendly service. The food was great but I give it 4 stars because I feel like its a little crowded in between chairs. Everyone likes to feel comfortable while they eat. It is a small place. The location does look kinda old inside and out but overall the food was good. read more

I've been coming to this place with my parents since I was little. The food was always delicious. I went back this weekend and I know that with COVID they are doing the best they can. But I wanna say they need to improve their organization skills and customer service. I went with my boyfriend , gave them my name and said that the wait was 15 mins , PERFECT.. as we waited I noticed they were seating people that got there after us & they never came out to let us know what was going on. I went back inside & asked how many people are still in front of us & said 4. The wait was now 30-40mins. We ended up ordering to go we got our food after waiting for so long went home and we were disappointed with how bad the food was. read more

My fiancee and I were in the mood for Mariscos and we did not know where to go since we're from tha bay. So we decided to ask for yelp for help. First they recommended Mariscos Guero since we were in the vecinity. After having a detour and my stomach grougling, I checked in the rear view mirror and said we are eating here. When we arrived, we were greeted by a friendly waitress, I saw the jukebox and decided to feed it some dollars for some corridos. My fiancee ordered a seafood mixture of abalone, fish and shrimp that came with a juicy broth in foil. I had the standard coctel de camarones. The food was delicious, along with the service I truly strongly recommend this place read more

After eating 11 tacos and drinking quite a number of beer in Cloud 9 we moved here to have some more tacos. I know i'm such a pig, but i only ordered two. I got the steak and shrimp and all i can say is that is freakin good!!! it got some avocados in it too. The size is just right and the flavor is awesome! Reasonably priced just a perfect place. read more

Love this place! Micheladas are delicious and food is bomb! I always get the filete al mojo de ajo and its just right. Also the tacos gobernador are also amazingly good. Waitresses are friendly and pretty. The food takes a bit to come out but it's just because it's freshly made definitely recommend this place. FYI don't go if you're a jealous female because the waitresses do wear really short skirts lol. read more

i realize i've been very stingy with my 5 stars lately. there was nothing wrong with our meal at mazatlan, i just don't feel i can give a place 5 stars having only tried one dish. having said that............my meal here was yum-o! waiting for my friend outside, i was able to read the newspaper article on the window which couldn't stop talking about this being a seafood place. the fish/shrimp/lobster tanks inside reconfirmed this. even though i was tempted by the meaty entrees on the right side of the menu, i stuck with the seafood. i ordered the #10 under the seafood section (please don't ask me what it was called). the description said shrimp and mushrooms, two things i love. it also said it was in a white wine sauce and had what i'm guessing was the spanish word for "cream" so i hesitated at first (afraid of it being too rich), but then said, "what the heck!". the menu said nothing else so i had to ask if the shrimp came with anything else. the (very busty) waitress said rice, beans, salad and tortillas (which i forgot to eat!). i was sold! and the dish was delicious! after a few consecutive bites, the sauce was a bit rich, so i just alternated between shrimp/sauce and rice/beans/salad. for $10.99, i was more than satisfied. late in the afternoon, i was still thinking about how yummy the meal was. my friend, who's been on a tortas kick, ordered the tortas special written on the wall thinking it was going to have shrimp in it, but it didn't (maybe next time we'll bring a english/spanish dictionary). it ended up just being veggies. he said he liked it overall, but it needed meat. i'd agree. before you even order, they bring you warm chips, two kinds of salsa, lime and an onion/cilantro mixture. they also bring a small bowl of what i'd call spicy shrimp broth with a shrimp in it (be warned...it still has it's head). it was a very good starter. at what other mexican place do they give you complimentary soup? service was friendly, but a tad on the slow side (and i'm probably only saying that because i was on a lunch break). as with most places, when you send a waitress away (from not being ready to order), it takes them forever to come back. but she did check on us, so that was nice. even the salad (w/no dressing but was refreshing), mexican rice and beans were good. i swear i think there were bits of meat in the beans. i'd totally come back! read more

This place just plain sucks!!! My fiancee and I went once, and we'll never go back. Everything was bad-food, service, just everything. I had the Millionaire shrimp dinner which was shrimp in a creamy mushroom sauce and my man had shrimp cocktail. Both had old shrimp in it-it was really chewy and old tasting. Then to top it off our waitress had a major attitude. I may be white but I speak spanish and she proceeded to talk shit to my fiancee saying he needs to teach me more, when I ordered fluently. She never came to ask how everything was and we never received refills on drinks. TERRIBLE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!! read more

Horrible service and food was ok at best not kid friendly a spot were you take the Sancha and don't want to be seen if you have one

Expensive not worth it they charge too much and give a little one campechana had one patios and 3 shrimp and charge 20 dollars go to el Viejon that's better read more

Mazatlan Restaurant - Campechana to go - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

After our favorite marisco's place was completly full with people waiting in line to be seated, we attempted this place that is located down the street yesterday. The location is in a small strip next to a mini market with bright blue paint and the words " Marisco's ". Walking inside is very crampped and the waitress where quick to say hello and grab a broom and rag to clean up a table for us. After being seated I noticed they didn't have toastadas de jaiva which is what I was craving, so we ordered a parillda para dos with carne asada, grilled fish and camarones al mojo de ajo. After waitnig over 45 minutes I asked another waitress what was taking so long for our food, she asked who our attending waitress was and said "I'll check" Let me fill you in prior to this people who had arrived after us where being served and by now the entire room all seven tables had received their orders but us. Our waitress asked the table across from us two times if everything was ok and if they needed anything. She did not acknowledge us once asking for refills, more chips, or advising that the order was taking more time then exspected. We felt completely igorned, considering four waitresses rotating a small room. Our waitress came to our table ( only because we called another worker's attention ) to say " sorry but the cook is slow the table in front of you have waited 45 mins for their order" ( which is a lie because they had arrived several minutes after us and where eating) , when I mentioned that she had not been attentive or explained the wait, her facial expression became upset and said" you want more chips" ( when I used that as an example). My husband asked how much longer would the wait be she came back saying "right now it's ready" ( what a coinsidence) she placed the order down said sorry for an inconvience and she was going to leave another server to our table ( because she was off her shift). The food was not hot ( I thought it was just done) and tasted plain. The menu did not state any addition preparation time nor did the waitress advise us of any. I understand that we had a special order however other patrons after us had ordered carne asada tacos, fish, fries, shrimp, they same items that come with our order. The have a complete staff for a small restaurant if they ladies would stop flirting with the perdominatly male patrons and not be in such a hurry to leave maybe we would have had a more attention to our table. This restaurtant did not have a family atmasphere considering the short tight mini shirts and the dripped down sleeves rerealing the bra strap was part of the waitress's uniform. Sorry but I will not recommend this place to anyone nor return. read more

Mix coctel had a lot more vegetables than actual sea food. The fish taco was ok. The fish ceviche was not fresh. The so called fresh carrot/orange juice was not made on the por and the mix was not well prepared. The only thing I liked was the horchata. read more

The tacos el gobernador are very good, the ostiones a la mexicana are bomb. Cócteles de camarón are OK, they put too little shrimp by it is way better in every sense of the word than Perihuete. I would say to the owner improve your orchata we don't all drink alcohol , it could be better. read more

Great food; everything we tried was delicious and felt like they used fresh ingredients to prepare their food. Definitely a great place for sea food read more

I really liked the shrimp cocktail along with a dozen oysters! A++ for those.They were already scraped off the shell for easy slurping and there was no shell debris on the actual part that you eat (bad experiences from other places.) My 7 year old enjoyed a shrimp taco and the small consommé (broth) soup with a shrimp - although I don't think the shrimp (still has the head on it) is supposed to be eaten as it was not deveined or cleaned once we opened it up. They give you two salsa bowls with a green and a red salsa/chile. The red one was my favorite but they didn't offer refills for the chips or our sodas so I don't know if that's normal or if they were just too busy with all the guys there ordering alcohol and I was too busy multitasking enjoying my meal and keeping my 2 year old tame to stop them and ask for refills. I'm looking forward to returning to try the tostada de camaron w/ limon. My Fiancé was boring and got a carne asada burrito (who gets that with allllllllll that yummy seafood on the menu?!) but he said it was really good. This was my first visit there; I had tried to stop before and there was no parking available so we went right after picking my son up from school. There was two guys drinking at one table and another guy alone at another table and about 5 other guys arrived for drinks while we were having our meal. Just so you get a vibe of the type of crowd there; mostly males drinking alcohol, which is not where I want to be with my two kids but the food was really good so I will be returning even if we get it to go. Just sharing my experience, thanks! read more

Mazatlan Restaurant - A dozen oysters, minus one because I couldn't wait to eat them!! Delicious for oyster lovers! - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Really good mariscos, especially the raw oysters! Love it here. . . . 2 thumbs up!

Best Marisco in this area! Totally more fresh than perihuete down the Street. Recommend the Michelada de model and a Coctel or taco governador! Looks run down but the food and service is great ! read more

Very disappointed. Was hoping for some authentic Sinaloa style mariscos but was disappointed in portion, presentation and taste. The chips and salsa were ok. Spicy red and a very flavorful green. I ordered the Campechana botana and asked first of all what it was. I'm a fan of Campechana coctel and was told it was a Campechana seca on a plate. Not at all. It had 6 sad shrimp, some slices of octopus and abalone, 3 round slices of cucumber and a lot of sliced red onion. It had no flavor whatsoever, even after adding salt, lemon and Tapatio. Marlin taco was not significant neither was regular Campechana nor a shrimp tostada my daughter had. She didn't even finish the few shrimp on tostada and she always eats shrimp. My grandmother had the fried mojarra, it looked good and she was happy with it. 1 out of 4... There was nothing that told me return. read more

What I thought about the place I came in there by myself I'm a FEMALE the waitresses weren't too friendly the food was extremely overpriced my mixta tostada was made with old fish & pico de gallo...not only old but skimpy:/ I will not visit the spot again or will never recommend to friends or family read more

This is the best Mexican seafood restaurant ever!!! The tacos are incredible and the seafood cocktail is so fresh and flavorful! I have never had better, you must try this place!!! read more

this place sucks real bad. bad service, sloppy food. over priced. they have waitresses that dress all sexy to lure in men customers, but no. that doesnt make up for the nasty food and rude service. save your money and go some where else... read more

Love this place !! Landed here about almost 2 years ago and I keep coming back. I've tried their shrimp cocktails, shrimp and fish tacos , breaded fish and a couple more that can't really remember but it was ALL good. They have good beans and rice and their green chili is so good Sometimes it can get crowded but they have to go service too. Everyone here is very friendly. Great customer service !! The food is awesome for the price !! As long as they don't raise there prices, I will keep coming back Definitely recommend to give them a try. The only down side is that it sometimes can be hard to find parking. But tells you how great of a place this is. Some people seem to complain about their waitresses but I've never had a problem with them. I think their uniforms keeps the place authentic and real read more

Food was good. Kind of a small hole in the wall kind of place....had shrimp cocktail and that was yummy. Had tacos too and it was yummy.

Great food and great service. I love the fish ceviche and they have the best Michelada. I have gone there three time and it is the best place to eat if your down in that neighborhood. They have a great outdoor seating that is very pleasant.. They have tasty food that you must try. Very kid friendly and fun place to go and enjoy the food. read more

I would totally recommend this place! The marlin tacos are good & it's something different. Next time I'll try the caldo or the coctel. They have Pacifico so that's awesome. Got that baja vibe which I like. read more

This place is authentic, clean and affordable - you cannot miss. Do you love oysters? The oysters are better than anything I get in Santa Monica - super clean and not gooey-gross. I got the Mexican (Baja) oysters and I can't imagine a better oyster period. And for $10/dozen, I can eat as many oysters as I want without worrying about the check... The best shrimp tacos ever. They seems to be grilled first and then maybe caramelized with onions with a big slice of avocado on top - the tortilla is also grilled, so the whole taco is smokey and delicious. I had another taco with shrimp and carne asada, and that was [capital "D"] Delicious. The beer is three bucks and ice cold, and they have Micheladas of course. Yes, everyone speaks spanish, there is ranchero music on the jukebox and you will see guys in cowboy hats... The waitresses are friendly and cute, wearing very colorful, tight, short skirts, ... I am going to make it a point to come here at least once a month, to get my oysters on... period, end of story. Not sure how anyone could have a bad experience. My brother-in-law took me here and he has been coming for years... and to hear it from him, the food is always consistent. read more
