I love the Negro Durazo in TJ so we stop at this one when ever we can't make it pass the border from The OC - I love almost everything about this place - EXCEPT- aprendan a cocinar el pulpo - porfis - the octopus is ALWAYS so tuff - you guys have so many dishes with octopus- you should have master the cooking process by now and - please - please fix the dam toilet in the woman's restroom read more

I love their piña coladas and steak fajitas I definitely recommend! Everything is phenomenal and I'll definitely be coming back.

Birrieria Negro Durazo is a food truck outside of the main seafood restaurant (Negro Durazo)---it is the BEST BIRRIA in San Diego!!! If you're looking for birria, DO NOT go ANYWHERE ELSE!!! The food is perfect and the price is right. The small and large orders are both very generous and come with all the sides and goods. If you're on the go/in a hurry, a couple tacos will also not disappoint. Food is authentic, delicious, and service is FAST. They nailed it! read more

Try this food truck at the las americas outlets in San Isidro, it was a rainy day so I wanted something warm, I got a soggy quesa birria and a Birria ramen, but worse wile I was waiting for my food I see the cook guy thru the window on his phone texting and grabbing my tortillas with his bear hands and I get so fucking frustrated when I see that I think is disgusting, is so simple to wear gloves. Trate la comida de esta food truck en las americas outlets, Un dia lluvioso y se me antojo algo calientito , pedí una quesa Birria de arina toda soggy y un Birria ramen, en lo que esperaba la comida estoy mirando el cosinero texting en su cell y agarrando las tortillas con sus manos sin guantes me da pena decir algo pero lo miro asquerozo y algo tan sencillo el porque no usan guantes. read more

This is the second time my family has eaten here and it will be the last. While the food was okay the service was extremely slow and unprofessional. A member ordered churros with vanilla ice cream which arrived with a hair in it. She returned it and we said that since she returned it, we should not be charged. When we went to pay the cashier named Junior copped an attitude and threw our credit back at us in an extremely rude fashion. We will never visit this location nor any other of their other locations. I'd rather take my family to a better restaurant with better food and where the staff doesn't disrespect the customers. And where food isn't served with hair. read more

Tacos a de camarón a la plancha very good and great seasoning Tostada jumbo was great fast service with call ahead read more

Quesadilla v Burrito? Either way, cannot go wrong here with this authentic tasting Mexican seafood. Don't believe these cheap Gringo's who viciously gripe about this spot as their Mex-food knowledge is based on places with "Bell" in it's name, (take a hint, Brian). Solid "4-1/2+" read more

What's a Mexican girl to do on a hot Sunday evening... I was craving seafood, but not sushi, I wanted spicy fresh seafood and a cold beer with clamato. And most important I didn't want to break the bank. After going back and forth on my yelp I came across Negro Durazo, saw PE's 5 star review and off I went to Chula Vista. Medium sized restaurant, the "Norteño" was playing live, and there was someone ready to take us to our table. I'm not a fan at all of the Banda or Norteño music and thankfully this only lasted about 5 mins. I ordered a tostada that was the speciality of the house. Once I got it I was a bit confused, they brought it in a little bowl and they gave me a packet of tostadas. I forgot about the confusion once I tasted my spicy shrimp and scallop ceviche! The marlin taco was great too. I took a few spoonfuls of my friend's seafood coconut which is the best thing ever!! It's a seafood cocktail but inside a coconut with fresh coconut chopped inside your cocktail. Took another bite of my other friend's spicy shrimp taco, perfect balance of spicy, garlicky, creamy cilantro sauce and the crunchiness of the cabbage. My beer was cold as ice and loved the spicy tamarindo rim on my glass with clamato. Chips and salsa you get at your table as soon as you sit down are bomb.com Service was great!! Prices are reasonable. No air conditioning :/ I will definitely come back, but I'll hope there is no live music. read more

My friend and i were looking for a Mariscos place that was open past 9pm on a weekday since we decided we had a craving for it at 830pm lol. We ended up here. The oysters negro durazo style were awesome as well as the aquachilles verde AND a great michelada!!! Yay The mocajete (tierra y mar) sucked! 4 pieces of shrimp and 4 strips of thin meat with 4 pieces of cheese for $20. Do not order it! It did noy taste good at all. The waiter tried to make it up to us, but failed when he had the cook whip up a shrimp taco that was disgusting! read more

I was visiting San Diego And was looking for some good birria on a Sunday morning. This place was highly recommended. To be honest, initially I couldn't find an address. I googled it and eventually found one. Showed it as just being behind the actual seafood restaurant, which is located in the front. The birria spot is a small trailer, which runs from the rear parking lot. Maybe I set my expectations a little too high. Maybe I was just craving those delicious tacos you can find crossing the border. All I found here was soggy, disappointing tacos. The meat itself wasn't tooo bad. It was decent, not the best, but ok. What kills the whole deal is that they use thin, flimsy tortillas that once drenched with the juices from the meat, your tortilla/taco will fall apart. I'm sure they would do a lot better if they had handmade tortillas being made. Oh and of course, maybe drain the meat a little bit more so that the taco has a chance to be eaten as a taco that it is. They also offer quedabirrias which is a birria taco with cheese. It is usually delicious, but again... they just need to stop making it so soggy. read more

Their are two ways to buy food from these folks. They have a seafood restaurant which is what faces the front. I have not eaten in their restaurant. They have a food truck in the back part of the parking lot. This food truck only serves (I can't spell it) (Beer-EEE-a) tacos. These tacos were the best tacos I have ever had. They were amazing. I didn't put any sauce on them, just enjoyed the flavor of the tacos. I will go back here and suggest this place to others. read more

Wow, I didn't think I could find good mariscos at a restaurant, usually mariscos are good at food trucks, let me tell you, the food here is delicious, a lot of flavor and so tasty. I definitely will order again. Totally recommend this place. STOP POSTING REVIEWS ABOUT THE SERVICE AND POST ABOUT THE FOOD, WHICH REALLY MATTERS!! read more

We came into Negro durazo on a Friday night. We first got into the door nobody greeted us or even said hi to us. We went to sit down at a dirty table and they did come clean it up for us after about 5 mins of sitting there. It took forever for us to be greeted. We sat there for about 5 minutes waiting for someone to come give us menus. I got irritated and w went up to get some myself. My drink took forever along with my food. Baes had to wait to eat because mine was lagging it. The food is amazing. Great spot to go chill and drink with the homies tho. But service is shit!! The reason i would go back would be for the food and drinks read more

Unfriendly staff, you have to flag them down to get the attention of the servers. Food not good, flavorless, for a piña colada and just tastes like alcohol. I asked about an appetizer and server was very rude and just asked what did I want. Over all bad service and bad food. read more

Was waiting for some work to be done on my truck at Big O and walked by this place and was drawn in by the sign that said "caldo de pescado $7.50" so I walked in with it being chilly a caldo sounded good. Grabbed a menu and stood by the door and a young man walked up to me and asked if it was for here or to go. I said oh I'd just like to look at your menu and see what you guys have.....he responds by asking if I want a to go menu and I said sure he brought it over and didn't even look at me so I thought it best to look over the menu outside. Came back in and ordered a caldo de pescado and a fried shrimp taco......there were only two other tables occupied this night yet it took over 20 something minutes to bring the food out. The "fried" shrimp taco was "fried" in such a way where it came out looking more like a chile relleno, but it was good I guess. The caldo was a NIGHTMARE......the fish was so soft and mushy like its been in a stew pot for quite some time, and the broth was like PURE SALT WATER!! I gave it a few tries thinking maybe it was just that spoonful, but I literally almost spit it back up cause I couldn't force it down.....won't be back. read more

Great food at a great price. Try the pescado frito. Get the red snapper. Only downside is it gets super loud during primetime but that comes with the turf. You must be able to tolerate blisteringly loud banda unless you go early. Everything is very fresh and tasty my FAVORITE mariscos place read more

Hijole. What can I say about Negro Durazo? Went there a few weeks ago with the hubby. He got a shrimp ceviche tostada and a lobster taco. I got a fish ceviche tostada and two smoked marlin quesadillas. My mouth waters just recalling these dishes. The tostada used for the ceviche was nice and crisp and there was plenty of fish loaded onto it. The ceviche was fresh and uber tasty, just like Mazatlan. House salsa was smokey and had just the right amount of heat. We had the ceviche first and then they brought the quesadillas and taco. Oh holy jeebus! Mine were loaded with smoked marlin, grilled onions and peppers and melted cheese. The corn tortillas (this took my breath away) were crispy from the grill. This place has a casual atmosphere with live music on weekend evenings. The staff is friendly and prompt and prices are decent. The menu is almost completely in Spanish, but there are photos of all the dishes throughout the menu and restaurant and the staff is always willing to describe any dish. Big props. I look forward to returning. read more

Bad food and over priced campechana no flavor the only good Thing was norteño music service was okay overall never coming back

Today, Friday March 12, 2021 myself and a friend had lunch at this restaurant. There was small crowd present that had already been seated and nearly all had received their meal. We placed our order which was two fried fish filets. After 25 minutes our meal arrived. During our wait our waiter never came to check on us, and failed to gives us an explanation why our order took so long to arrive. The meal was good. However, due to the poor service and the lengthy time to receive our meal I am giving 2 stars and will reconsider of returning. read more

This place was pretty good. I got the kids meal shrimp because I'm not a big sea food fan and it was pretty good. I liked the fries. The only thing was we went on a Thursday and they started playing loud mariachi music around 4 pm and we went for a casual sit down place to talk. I guess we should have checked again next time. I didn't pay but it seemed really pricy. The chips were really good a couple were stale but they were nice and salty. The chairs and tables are kind of crowded together and not that comfortable. So overall it's an o.k. place. read more

We literally walk in the door and a guy runs to us and says they're closed. I'd be fine with that if the musicians weren't playing music while a couple drunks sang along and people were at the counter looking at menus. I wouldn't have bothered to review them if yelp didn't say they were open for another 42 minutes. read more

Saw one of the Cooks do a "hobo blow" at the work station. Old hag at the bar was trying to rock her hip hugger, thong, and trap stamp. She totally ignored us when we entered. Would not seat us. She pretended she could not hear me and turned the systems's volume even higher. read more

Great service! !! The best appetizers is the Maleficio. I enjoy this place to have an appetizer and beer. The music is great, makes me feel like I'm in Mexico back in the days. Ask for the habanero sauce, you won't regret it! read more

Seafood is my favorite of all time food. Came last week and the customer service was spot on. Did get my ceviche order wrong but when i told them about it, they fixed the error right away, which was great. Will definitely be coming back guys. read more

I don't know what it is about Mariscos places that man do they give TERRIBLE customer service. And quite honestly the food didn't make up for it. I paid for a $25 dish that definitely was not worth it. The campechana was small compared to many other restaurants I've been to. And please hire some new waitresses or cashier as they are super rude. read more

I got a large shrimp cocktail for $17. It did not taste like anything. The to-go brown paper bag it was packed in was soggy/wet and would have broken and my food fell through had I not been holding it from the bottom getting my hands/car wet with shrimp water. Overpriced shrimp in water read more

This a very popular restaurant in San Diego, and i believe it is also popular in Tijuana Mexico, which is the reason why i went to get fish tacos.

Food is good. Being that it's sea food it is kind of pricey. The place is EXTREMELY loud. Like you have to shout to the person next to you in order for them to hear you. Service is not good. Our waiter didn't come around once after giving us our food. We had to ask someone else for the check. I ordered a shrimp cocktail in a medium size. It was a decent size, $12 for it. What's a little gross is that the shrimp is not deveined. This place wasn't too busy when we went in but when we were leaving it was starting to pick up...it seemed like a band was starting to set up as well. Overall, I don't recommend. I'm pretty sure you can find a better sea food restaurant somewhere else. read more

First time here! Food was fresh and tasty. Ordered ceviche just to try it Generous portion! Great service too!

Came to this place on Sunday for father's day. I was not impressed with the food. We were suppose to go to Puerto Nuevo to eat lobster but plans changed so we ended up at negro durazo in Chula Vista. They give you chips and salsa while you wait for your food. I ordered the plate with the half lobster. Cannot remember the name of it. I also ordered a fresh natural Orange juice. Which was good. My hubby ordered the botana el maleficio. He said it was okay. read more

WOW! So I am one mexican chick that loves me some seafood... C'mon my family is from Mazatlan! This place is a sorry excuse of a restaurant. My favorite thing to order when going to a place like this is the Agua Chile... This is an easy way to know if a place knows how to make their mariscos. Firstly I ordered and order of Agua Chile that was smothered in this NOT HOT dark sauce... They said it was what they prepared it with... I returned the plate twice asking them to turn up the heat... IT IS AGUA CHILE!!! (Translation- Chili Water = supposed to be smoking hot) To make the long story short they brought out the whole bottle. They were adding a premade hot sauce to aguachile? WTF? I was so turned off! Aguachile is made by mashing hot chiles, like jalapeños, serranos, or when your really gangster- HABANEROS!! The fact that they were clearly totally lost on this... killed it all for me... I ended up ordering some fish tacos which were more than mediocre they were just wrong. DONT GO TO THIS PLACE!! save your time and money... read more

So I was on the hunt for some tasty mariscos on Saturday morning. It was hot, sunny, and I wanted some mariscos and cold beer. Luckily, we came into Negro Durazo, and were pleasantly surprised. The envorinment is amazing, with many tables being occupied and live music, so right off the back I got a good, lively vibe. So it's go big or go home, so naturally, we start off with a bucket of beers, and some shrimp ceviche tostadas. They were very tasty and fresh, but the real treat for me was the shrimp aguachile plate with salsa verde. This dish is one of my favorites when it comes to mariscos and Negro Durazo made it perfectly. One of the best I have had in South bay. With that, I was very satisfied, and will definitely be back for the shrimp aguachile. read more
